Camping does require certain measures of safety, but this seems like a stretch. Don’t get us wrong, fire is dangerous and needs to be dealt with with caution. But roasted marshmallows are the best part of camping, and we simply can’t let such a long stick stand in the way of our true love.
It seems that maintaining a safe distance from the fire became an obsession for this safety-conscious camper, who spares no expense when it comes to protecting himself from marshmallow-roasting hazards. But how will he know it’s ready if he’s so far away? He certainly isn’t going to smell it as it melts or see when it gets too charred.
You Set up the Tent; I'll Go Get Firewood
When it comes to camping, there are several undeniable elements that make it special: good company, being surrounded by the beauty of nature, and the allure of a roaring campfire. But what happens when a group of amateur campers takes the concept of a "firewood log" to such massive proportions?
Armed with a single, colossal log that could rival the size of a fallen tree, these campers were ready to conquer the fire-making game. They proudly positioned the log near the fire pit. After all, who needs a collection of smaller logs when one mighty giant can do the job, right?
Tent or Teepee?
The anatomy of a traditional tent is pretty simple: durable fabric and poles to hold it up. But what if you could elevate your tent to something with more charm and character? Enter the teepee tent—or at least, that's what these campers were envisioning when they tried to set up this temporary shelter.
While its distinctive cone shape stands a little taller than most tents, it's not exactly reminiscent of the teepees saw in movies and books. Original teepees are sturdier and big enough to fit a sleeping bag. Obviously this tent was built by people who have no idea what they're doing.
Don't Do as I Do
A camping mattress is one of the most important pieces of equipment you need to take with you on the trip. Using it is fairly simple. There aren't any complicated knobs, but the manufacturers of this camping mattress forget to show how it should be should used and instead opted for this display.
We can't help but scratch our heads at this sight. Instead of gracefully laying on the mat, the model laid next to it and set his magazine in a comfortable position on top of said mattress! What's the point of buying this econo camper mat if you can't even use it?
As Long as They're Asleep
Where there's a will, there's a way. And these happy campers decided they will get some sleep no matter what shape their tent was in. Strangely enough, this tent looks like it doubles as an extra blanket instead of a shelter. Combined with the sleepers cozying up next to each other.
Perhaps they reached the point of utter exasperation and decided to throw in the towel, opting to sleep under their tent to stave away the bugs and mosquitoes. Who needs to set it up when it basically does what you need, without all the trials and tribulations of setting it up.
