Thumbnails are just like the covers of a book. Their job is to attract as many people as possible to get to know more about the content. Of course, we know the first impression is essential, but we often hear people say don't judge a book by its cover. However, no one says anything about the thumbnails. So here we are, judging thumbnails in freedom. There is a bitter truth that no matter how good the content is, it will not reach the ideal number of audience if it doesn't manage to leave a memorable impression at first glance. With that in mind, content creators put a great effort into making the thumbnail stand out in the vast ocean. Unfortunately, there are times when those content creators go way too far, taking the thumbnails beyond ridiculous.
To show you what we're talking about, here are 25 hilariously bad thumbnails that are nothing but laughing material. Roll down to check them out!
