The Oddest Situations People Have Ever Found Themselves In While Naked

Sometimes in life, people get caught with their pants down.

Literally.

One time on a business trip to St. Louis, a neighboring hotel had a clothes dryer malfunction, causing smoke to set off the fire alarm at around 1am. The news coverage showed the large hotel's entire clientele in various stages of undress on the street and sidewalks outside.

While I was never so unfortunate, it changed how I packed for business trips. From then on I always packed and wore nice pajamas I didn’t mind having shown on TV.

Lots of mishaps in life can leave us underdressed in front of an unintended audience.

"What’s the oddest situation where you found yourself naked?"

Happy Birthday Suit

"Got really drunk on my 21st birthday."

"Blacked out and woke up naked on the floor in my best friend's house.

"Her mom came down and said 'oh, good morning. I didn’t want to wake you' and handed me some clothes."

"It was really awkward, but I grew up with her—she was almost like my mom. We both just kinda laughed at it."

Bare In The Woods

"My husband and I were nude sunbathing on a mountain river outside Seattle. I was walking around collecting driftwood."

"A group of white water rafters suddenly came down the river. I was just standing there with a bunch of wood in my arms watching them go by."

"None of them saw us, but a few of them had go-pro’s attached to their helmets."

"It brings me great joy to think about them going through the footage and seeing a naked chick holding wood and awkwardly waving as they went by."

Risqué Recess

"I did a backflip off a swing in my school's playground in the 8th grade."

"Somehow my belt or belt loops got caught on the little triangle ends of the seat and it took my pants, underwear, socks, AND shoes off mid air."

"What a moment in time that was."

"It was very mortifying, but my friend Fred wrapped me in his coat within 15 or so seconds."

"Very few people got a shot of the berries."

"It was a Friday, so there was not much mention of it on Monday—except for the girl I had a crush on and all of her friends."

Ah, Germany

"Went clubbing in Berlin."

"I discovered that there was a pool there."

"Went swimming naked in front of 100+ people."

"Some other people were swimming at first."

"The others were very slightly clothed, then I was alone."

Language Bare-ier

"I was in a foreign country, needed medical treatment. The nurse told me, in bad English, to take my clothes off."

"I did, I had no reason to question her. I was scared and confused and really tired."

"About five minutes later a tech came in and was surprised. Turned out that in their native language they say 'take off your shirt,' but the nurse forgot the words and assumed I would know that if I'm having a weird heartbeat I only need to take off my shirt for an EKG."

"The nurse was there for maybe 20 seconds. She came in, said 'you can take off clothes'."

"She gestured at my shirt. I misread the non-verbal communication."

"'Technician will come soon'. She was gone before I started untying my shoes."

"I lay there alone and naked for five minutes in a cold room."

"I initially did the hands casually folded pose, but figured I should own the look."

Earth-Shaking

"February 8, 2001 at 10:54 am, northwestern Washington state.

"I had the day off and was just stepping into the shower when the Nisqually earthquake hit."

"I stood in the doorway of my bedroom, buck naked, watching the walls heave in and out like they were taking deep breaths."

"My thoughts consisted of 'it figures'."

Just Disappointed

"I was doing traffic control for road construction when I was like 20 in the middle of f*cking nowhere. It was like literally a road that went through the woods with nothing but farms here and there."

"I had to go to the bathroom so bad I ran behind the barn and literally exploded everywhere. It was wretched."

"As I got done I realized I didn’t have toilet paper, but had a lot of clothes on because it was cold in the morning but got warmer as the day progressed."

"I had a white tee underneath all my layers, so I stripped down and took the white tee off so basically I’m naked all the way down to just my pants that were at my ankles."

"As I’m wiping I look up and the farmer is in his field on his tractor just looking at me. I just looked at him and gave him the 'I’m sorry bro' shrug—had no choice.

"He gave me the 'I ain’t mad, I’m just disappointed' look."

Naked Man Not Included In Lease

"My then-girlfriend was living in an apartment that was an old storefront converted into a living space, so there were no windows in her bedroom. She had found another place that she was waiting to move into."

"We were getting busy in her bedroom when she heard the front door open. She thought it was her mother, so she put on a robe to meet her in the living room, leaving me in pitch dark in her room."

"We had just started dating, and I wasn't familiar with her room yet. It was pitch black. I couldn't find the light switch or my clothes."

"It wasn't her mother stopping by for a surprise visit. It was her landlord who was showing the apartment to new potential renters, who happened to be a married couple."

"My girlfriend failed to stop them from coming to the bedroom because she thought I'd be dressed. I wasn't."

"The door flung open, and the light switch I couldn't find came on, and I'm just standing there with my hands over my business."

"I'll never forget the look on their faces."

Raccoon 'Rasslin

"I punched a raccoon in the face while I was completely naked."

"My wife and I had dozed off happy, then we were awoken by the racket of panicking chickens. I sprinted into the backyard without anything at all—just as primal as my many-times-great grandfather caveman."

"I zoomed into the coop, threw the door open, and there, at waist level on a perch, was a raccoon who was pissed off about getting interrupted before he could arrange a chicken dinner."

"I went deeper into the coop so that the raccoon was between me and the open door, figuring it would f*ck off—but instead, it hissed/growled at me and made a little aggressive lunge toward me."

"So I panic-punched it, full on, just to get it away from me. Sent him sprawling, and he bounced and then ran. Somehow, I didn't have a scratch on me."

"I wish I'd thought to do a mighty yawp or a caveman yell or something."

Free Wheeling

"Downhill biking. Pants caught the side of a jagged rockface that had twigs and branches in between."

"Pants just tore right off. Took a good part of my underoos as well."

"Had to return home through the center of town."

"Thankfully it was getting late. Not a whole lot of people saw my dumba**."

~ ComplexPackage117

Camp Out

"Took a shower in a communal bathroom at a campsite. A few girls came in, did the same, and left before I did.

"Must have grabbed my clothes with theirs."

"It was a long quarter mile in a hand towel."

~ Prudent_Dealer_7134

Surprise?

"Was hanging out at my house that I shared with my girlfriend in college with some of her friends and her friends decided to leave. My girlfriend and I decided to race to get naked."

"She bolted to the bedroom, and I, in the living room, ripped off my shirt and decided that the fastest way to get my pants off was both legs at the same time over my head on the couch."

"As I get them past my knees, I see her friend's horrified face between my legs. She had forgotten something and just ran back inside to grab it, and got a full view of everything."

"She never looked me in the face again."

~ IncrediblyShinyShart

Did They Find It?

"On a waterslide, I jumped on with a bathing suit on and got down to the bottom without it."

~ Reddit

When NSFW Is SFW

"I gave birth at the hospital where I work and ended up having an urgent C-Section."

"Soooo many of my coworkers saw me naked that day."

"If ever there’s a time to be naked at work, it’s that."

~ toxinogen

Be More Specific, Mom

"I was like 12. I woke up to hearing my mom screaming, 'The house is on fire!'."

"It was like 2 am so I ran out of the house as I was—which was naked."

"The house absolutely WAS on fire."

"The house across the street."

"Lighting up my pre-teen horror."
