Top 13 Cheerleader Fails Highlighted by the MSU Cheerleader with the Nice Butt (Right Dad?)

One of the best moments you'll find at a sporting event, aside from the touchdowns, homeruns or WNBA nipple-slips, is when someone who looks like they were seriously injured turns out to be okay. That is unless you're from Philadelphia in which case on-field spinal detachment is the only thing that warms your black, black heart.

As serious as the video below looks, it appears that the cheerleader in question, Taylor Young, will be fine. At least I hope so, because her dad waited about 4 seconds after the fall to start complementing his daughter's ass on her facebook page..

MSU

Don't worry Taylor, my uncle used to make the same critiques of me, and everyone else on my baseball team when I was youn.......my god....

In any event, when someone isnt being seriously injured, most of these falls are pretty hilarious. Following that "logic" I've put together the top 13 (bad luck number) cheerleader falls. I've excluded high school falls because for some reason that felt wrong and if it feels just a little wrong to me it would probably make people with a moral compass feel really wrong.  Let's take a look:

13. Knicks Cheerleader Takes a Tumble

(This video might involve high school people, but I think we can agree it's worth it)

#12 - Camera placement is top notch, as are her plant hands.  Unfortunately I think this might have been her first attempt at a handspring. Mine ended with blood and a prosthetic leg, so I think she got off light.

#11 - Georgia Tech Cheerleader should have been on the bottom of the pyramid.  Just in terms of girth...just sayin.

#10 - This Southern Utah cheerleader is a flat out pro.  It take a significant amount of professionalism to eat parquet and then bounce up with a smile on your face

#9 - Stanford Cheerleader - All the brains in the world can't help you complete a basket catch and not show your bloomers to Steve Sarkesian and the rest of America.

#8. Macy's Cheerleader - Timmmmmber !!!

#7 - Even talented Latin American dancers are prone to failure.  This statement does not include Jennifer Lopez, she hasn't missed a step since Selena, and in that case she immediately had her dance partner killed so no one could tell the tale.

#6. One more thing for Mike Leach to correct at WSU.

#5. CSU Cheerleader - The mushrooms she was on, plus the court design couldn't have helped her here

#4. Utah State - Mormon god can't save you now. Oh, you guys have Jesus too? Really? I was certain you had that eight-armed dude.

#3. Despite what you may have seen in Bring it On, the East Compton Clovers are not infallible.  Take that Gabrielle Union.

#2. UCF - Outside of the MSU video that spawned this post, this looks like the most painful fall on this list. If Daunte Culpepper were her spotter this would have never happened

#1. Southern Illinois - If you don't start openly weeping in your work place right now you're devoid of a heart.

BONUS!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ice cheerleaders are not immune, although the application process for working for the Islander is exactly stringent.  Looking at you DiPietro.

Video caption says it all:

Back in High School, we were asked to Cheer for the "Powder Puff" football game. We got blazed before hand and this is what happened

The youth of America ladies and gentleman...

Let me know what I missed in the comments.
