Mine was on a canoe trip a few years ago... a guy friend had untied my swim bottoms a couple times while I was sitting (I had shorts on) and I retied them.
Then I got up to take my shorts off, pulled them down, and he had untied them again without me noticing, so my suit came with! I flashed most of the 18+ people on the trip with us and then we got into a conversation about shaving since I was trying a 'runway' at the time, lol. Embarrassing, but good friends so it makes a good story still.

Oh man, mine is when I was right around 36 weeks prego - I was at work, and wearing a dress because it was mid-July, and I had been working on finishing a spreadsheet for probably 2 hours straight. I had just finished and was standing up stretching when my boss's assistant came to ask me a question - and suddenly I had the urge to pee really badly and there was no stopping it. So I basically peed on the floor of my office with the assistant (who was a 22 year old newly graduated woman) standing right there looking at me like.... . I thought about trying to pass it off as my water breaking just so I wouldn't have to show my face at work for a few months, hahaha.
To be honest though, I think it was worse for the assistant - she was SO SO embarrassed.

Pregnant: I brought some food to work and left it on the counter in the kitchen (like people do at my office with produce) but I forgot to label it. One of my coworkers took my tomatoes and was eating them. I went down to lunch and they were gone, so I went to HR and complained about it. The HR guy sent out an email to the staff and while he didn't know my name, he definitely made it sound like me and it was so embarrassing. They still talk about the great tomato incident of 2013.
Not-pregnant: I accidentally flashed a bunch of construction workers when I was getting ready to pump. I opened the window, pulled up my shirt, pulled down my bra, and then looked up to see a bunch of guys staring at me from the roof of building across the lot. Whoops.

I peed in my pants in 7th grade. I was in the girls' bathroom with my friends when one of the boys pushed another boy into the room. I really had to pee but was standing there putting on lipstick instead. I laughed so hard I peed. Like, fully peed. I had to go to the gym locker room where, luckily, I had an extra pair of shorts. But it was too late. Word had spread and I was horrified. I called my mom to come get me early from school. I was teased about it for weeks.
Not really a funny embarrassing story...

I was taking an EMT course and working 12 hour night shifts. If we missed a class we had to pay $175. I was so tired after work but couldn't miss the class so I took some energy pills and they reacted badly with some other regular meds I was taking and I started hyperventilating, my Hr was 200 and my bp was 220/110. The teacher called the ambulance. Also the teacher asked my friend to take my pulse and he said 75 and steady. Lol he didn't pass the class. Anyways when the ambulance came I was hysterical (the drugs mixing made me high as a kite I guess?) and kept yelling "don't cut off my clothes!". I went to the ER and they wanted me to stay because they thought I was trying to kill myself.
That for sure was my lowest moment. But I was proud of myself for going back the next week and facing my classmates after making that crazy scene. And still had to pay the freaking $175 to makeup the class. Moral of the story: energy pills are bad. Energy pills mixed with other stimulating drugs are really bad!!

@littlebug: oh no! That reminded me of 5th grade..
I was in line for breakfast and all of a sudden had to puke, but didn't want to just leave my tray and run so I stood there and tried to hold it in. Nope. Puked all over the breakfast table, in front of the whole cafeteria. Luckily there wasn't THAT many kids and I was young enough to not get teased.

@FaithFertility: I lol'd to your story. Need some laughs.
@raspberries: Oh man, what do you even DO in that situation, lol.
@anonysquire: Man how scary! You definitely provided some hands-on learning for the EMT class, they should've paid YOU!

@josina: Hahaha, Apparently you laugh it off and remember to take pee breaks regardless of how busy you are, and then tell everyone on the internet about it.

I was in junior high and started my period in school and had to be told by some other girls that I had blood stains on the back of my white pants. I had to go to the office (because back then junior high kids didn't have cell phones) to call my mom to ask her to bring me some new pants and she wanted to know why and I had to explain it to her with several kids and teachers in the office listening to the whole thing. Oh and my mom wouldn't bring me any more pants because she said I only had one class left so I'd be fine.

I have to go back to adolescence for this one.
When I was maybe 11 or 12 I had a crush on my afterschool art teacher's teenage son. She always served us a snack. On this particular day, we had pop corn and lemonade. I was walking back from rinsing my brushes out in the sink and slipped. Some of the kernels that were stuck in my teeth fell outside of my mohth during the fall. My crush witnessed the entire thing and offered a hand to help me up. Out of sheer embarassment and tween akwardness I snapped I didn't need any help. He was so cute and nice and I was a dork and a jerk.

Ok this is kind of long but there was a lead up to this story DH had enough being sick with all the toddler germs and decided to make this immune boosting recipe he found online. He put whole lemons, garlic and ginger in a blender, boiled the whole thing, strained it, and was going to drink the water every morning. He didn't want to toss the strained bits either - put them in a dish and was going to use them as a sauce. But the stuff tasted really weird and he ended up not drinking it. It was just sitting in the fridge.
My mom had to watch DD for a while, and the first day she was babysitting, we gave her a quick rundown of what's for dinner and left. It didn't even occur to me to mention the nasty lemony stuff. And when I get home, it looks like my mom didn't even touch any of our food, so I call her and ask if she found something she liked to eat. And she says: I was meaning to ask, what's that funny lemon juice? Me: Mom: Oh, and I tried this yellow paste thing, what was that? At that point I just lost it and started laughing so hard I peed myself. Big time. I only hope DH didn't figure out why I was laughing my head off and racing to the bathroom, phone still in hand.

I will preface this with the fact that I was the awkward chubby kid throughout elementary, middle, and high school, and while I wasn't bullied or anything I never really felt like I fit in. I was also a painfully shy kid.
In 5th grade we were rehearsing for the end-of-year play. Since I was on the taller side, I stood in the back row of the risers. It must have been warm in the gymnasium that day, because all of a sudden I felt woozy and the next thing I remember was waking up on the gym floor after fainting surrounded by concerned-looking teachers. My mom came and got me, I went home, and stayed out of school the rest of the week...I was tired and embarrassed and just didn't want to go the rest of the week. Since it was Wednesday my mom let me.
When I got to school on Monday, I found out that the rumor was I was trying to lean over and kiss the cute, popular boy standing in the row in front of me, I lost my balance, and fell. OMG. I was SO embarrassed, since I was the shy, awkward kid and would never even DREAM of doing that (and I didn't even *like* the cute popular boy!!!).
I've done lots of embarrassing things in my life since then but this one sticks out as the worst 20+ years later

@whenoceansrise: your mom sounds like my dad!
I had a similar period accident when I was a freshman--I didn't even know I'd started until a boy in the hall said I had something on my skirt--it was a blood stain about the size of my hand...huge!
I went crying to the front office to call home, and my dad wouldn't bring me a change of clothes! He said I should be more prepared. I remember just crying in the front office...luckily, my theater teacher walked by, and he was super nice. He asked what was going on, I told him my dad wouldn't bring me clothes. He got my older brother out of class (my older brother had a car, he was a junior) wrote us both passes to leave school and told my brother to take me home for clothes.
My mom was SO MAD at my dad about that. She had to explain to him that period accidents sometimes happen and that OBVIOUSLY a parent who is home should help.

@Anagram: That was so nice of your theatre teacher! I just tied my jacket around my waste to hide the stain, but man I was so embarrassed!

Oh dear, I have many. I think the worst was in college. I was in an, ahem, intimate position with my boyfriend when someone opened his bedroom door wide open. His room was right off the common room, and his roommates were having a party. The guy who opened the door just shouted "oh shit!" really loudly and then stood there staring, which caused pretty much everyone in the room to turn around to see what he was looking at. After a few seconds of everyone staring at us, my boyfriend finally got up and slammed the door closed. The only good part was that I'm pretty sure they saw alot more of him than of me.

Oh man I have so many.
When I was in fourth grade we were doing some kind of lesson and it was super quiet in the classroom. I dropped my pencil and when I bent down to pick it up I passed gas. Everyone turned to look. Luckily no one teased me about it but it was still pretty embarrassing.
A few years ago I was coming back from a work lunch and really had to pee. I was running up the stairs towards the bathroom on our floor when I tripped on the last step and went flying into the wall. Of course there were people around and I was laughing so hard that I couldn't get up and almost peed my pants.
I was sharing an office with a coworker and when I was training him on something I tried to roll my chair over to his side of the room without getting up... yeah the chair totally tipped, I fell out and the chair fell on top of me.

I peed my pants well past the age that one should pee their pants. I was in the 4th grade and we were doing a dress rehearsal for a talent show. I was in the middle of performing so I couldn't just leave. I was so mortified. I don't remember being teased about it much. But I still cringe whenever the memory passes through my mind.
