A good advertisement is built from many components - a great idea, of course, the execution, and even placement of the printed ads are crucial. And when one of these things go wrong, the whole advertisement goes astray. If the idea does not match the product, then the customer might not understand what's it about. If the picture has a Photoshop fail, then that's probably what you'll remember. And if the advertisement is placed wrong, then chances are it will change the whole look and concept so much, that it might turn an innocent food ad into a racy poster. These funny fails are exactly what this post is about.
We previously ran a story on funny print ads placement here, but we've decided that we want your input on these design fails, and turned it into an open list. The results are more than hilarious!
So, if you need some cheering up or maybe wish to evil-laugh at the epic fails, scroll down below and get your fix at these advertisement examples gone terribly off!

That doesn't look like a fail, I'm pretty sure the whole page is one advert in fact and it's not even that bad, just a bit poor taste.

It's a pop up a that happened to line up in a bad way, why should you fire someone for that?

These were probably random pop-ups/ads that happened to line-up correctly

Why was the Turkish Airlines image removed? I know it's placement implied immanent crash, but it was hilarious.
