WARNING: You will never look at these people the same.
Tevin Davis of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
I mean, I need to go.
And so time had elapsed and I absolutely peed on myself in that moment.
I never forgot that moment.
Tim Spicer of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
It’s so embarrassing.
I’m working on my MacBook and people come in and out of the dorm all the time.
And I was so in shock that I ran to the door too late and they got away.
Soda Thompson of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
What do you mean somebody just stole your laptop and ran away?
So I felt completely dumb.
Like, you’re a young man, you should be able to catch this guy.

We used to have this really old rickety deck in my backyard.
And as soon as I went onto the makeshift ramp, it fell and I flipped over.
The handlebars stabbed me so hard in the gut.
Venus Vafa on ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
Everybody was laughing at me and I was crying-laughing.
So I was crying-laughing.
But to this day it is something I’m constantly reminded of.
David Jelinsky on ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
And my friend was so embarrassed, like, Bhanu, how can you freaking shower in the restroom?
I didn’t know.
I thought restrooms are meant to shower.
Maria Shrime-Gonzalez of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
I didn’t see a shower there, so I took the hose.
And in India bathrooms, you have the hose to clean after you’re done with your business.
So I used that to clean myself.
Jem Hussain-Adams of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
There was water everywhere.
The most freaking embarrassing moment in my life.
Still now, it makes me laugh when I think about it.
Moriah Gaynor of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
I was strutting down the street feeling myself.
I’m like: What does this man want from me?
God, can a woman just walk alone in the streets?
Jess Chong on ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
David Jelinsky
When I was 11 years old, I was a Nevada ballet theater scholar.
And I wasn’t this big when I was 11 years old.
I was this scrawny, though, so I had to pick someone up and flip her around.
Hunter McKnight of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
She did no work I’m sorry if you’re watching this.
But she dropped straight on her head.
It was an entire class of girls.
Charlie Davis of “Survivor 46'.Robert Voets/CBS
Everybody was looking at me.
The instructor was Russian.
It was a middle-aged Russian woman, short hair.
Q Burdette of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
She told me to get out.
I was petrified, horrified.
I pooped my pants.
Tiffany Nicole Ervin on ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
I could never smell farts.
It wasn’t until my husband’s like, Dude, what is that?”
I was like, “you’ve got the option to smell that?
Liz Wilcox of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
So I went back to the restroom and then the person next to me was like, Hey.
I was like, I dont know if I’m wearing this right.
And the person was like, Oh, okay.
Ben Katzman of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
I’ll give you another one and I’ll guide you through it.
So she told me I had to take the barrel out.
I was mortified because this was at work.
Randen Montalvo of ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
So it’s disgusting and embarrassing at the same time.
Moriah Gaynor
You see, I have a very subtle scar here.
[Points to chin] And that happened because I was ice skating.
Kenzie Petty on ‘Survivor 46’.Robert Voets/CBS
And not justanyice skating.
So we’re going around the rink and I go flat.
I come up, and I’m like, No, no, no, no, no.
He looked at it and said [to my date], You’re going home.
And I left my date to go get stitches from a wonderful excursion.
We did have a second date.
Young romance is a wild thing.
Never know where it’s going to go.
And at first I was like, What the f— is that?
I was like, Oh my God, that’s mine!
And I picked it up.
I think a couple of other people saw it, but it was just really funny.
I think the more embarrassing thing was that I’m really bad at following choreography.
And so you know how you get brain fog whenever you’re a little bit sick?
And so I said, I’ll make a PowerPoint because anybody can follow a PowerPoint.
And I look at that word and I said [to myself], I misspelled that word.
And so I was like, Oh, let me crack a joke about it.
And so I purposefully mispronounce this word, being funny and kind of laughed about it.
And because I was just so out of it, I just flipped to the next slide.
And I know the audience had to have been like, What is up with this guy?
What is he even saying?
It’s weird combination of me mispronouncing words, getting weirdly silent, and then moving on.
I still look back and it’s traumatizing.
[ED NOTE: The word wasIsraelite.]
Charlie Davis
I was out for a run, and I had to use the bathroom.
It was just me walking into the woods, and I took care of my business.
And I grabbed for what one uses to tidy oneself when in nature, which was a leaf.
Little did I know that said leaf was a poison ivy leaf.
And that’s embarrassing in its own right, just terrible.
The nurse was bringing me the steroids and my mom keeps going, Tell her how it happened.
until I finally told her, half mumbling, what happened.
And this poor nurse is held hostage by this disgusting story.
And I trip over the cord in front of about 2,500 agents that are there to hear me speak.
Here I go, tumbling.
I tore down the mic that was trailing me in the back.
That was pretty embarrassing on my part.
But I’m the jot down of guy that turns something like that into a positive.
I jump up, I laugh, they laugh, and the show goes on like nothing happened.
But in that moment, if I was white, my face probably would’ve been red.
Tiffany Nicole Ervin
I was in high school, and I used to run cross country.
One race, I was really, really dehydrated.
It was so hot, I passed out five feet from the finish line from dehydration.
We’re at the starting line.
I have to go to the bathroom real bad.
I’m like, Coach, I got to go to the bathroom.
She’s like, Finish the race.
The faster you run, the faster it’s possible for you to go to the bathroom.”
Baby, that was a lie.
By the time that race was finished, I peed my pants so bad.
And I had on navy blue spandex.
And it was an away match so everybody saw me crossing the finish line, pee everywhere.
Super embarrassing, but it makes a good story to tell.
Liz Wilcox
I’m a runner, and I was going to run a half marathon.
The night before, they say Carb up!
And so I ate hot buffalo chicken pizza.
So around mile four, I said, Okay, I’ve got three miles.
That’s less than a half an hour.
We’re good to go.
They said, Oh, it didn’t come.
There’s not one until the end.
And I really, really had to go.
And I am like, Okay, body.
And I was in Massachusetts, it was New Year’s Day, so it was a gigantic race.
And I had to just go.
I don’t want to wake somebody up at 8:00 AM to take a dump.
I just went on the side.
It was just a valley.
There was nowhere to go.
I just plucked right down.
This is very embarrassing for me because I actually don’t like talking about going to the bathroom.
I’m not Yam Yam Poop in the ocean!
I don’t even want to go.
I begged them, Do I have to go take an aqua dump?
I don’t want to do it.
It was so embarrassing.
And there were people!
They could see me, they were waving, they were laughing.
I had to wipe my butt with snow.
Luckily, it was cold because of the hot buffalo.
So that was the only saving grace.
I had thrown this crazy pool party at this motel in Miami, the cancer season pool party.
And it was like an old-school, ’60s hotel.
And the rafters were packed.
And I was set up by the pool.
And you saw everybody go like, YEEEAAAHHH, ooooookay, I think we need to do that again.
Randen Montalvo
So I live in Florida.
Me and my son watch a show calledBluey, right?
It’s about three dogs.
The show is Australian.
They all say Hello [in an Australian accent].
So me and my family, we say Hello [in an Australian accent] in the morning.
We think nothing of it.
So yesterday, I had an interaction.
I forgot that I’m near Australia, and I’ve never met an Australian person ever.
I don’t know why I said that.
It’s like the dumbest thing.
I’m 40 years old.
Why am I saying that?
Well, I miss my son.
And the guy just said all, Hey, how are you doing, sir?
And he had the full proper accent.
He was an Australian.
Do you know how low and dumb I fell at that point?
I’m a computer science major.
I wanted to profusely apologize.
He was a very good sport about it.
But I was flush red.
Kenzie Petty
I was 10 years old.
That’s where I’m at.
I’m awkward, I’m weird, but I want to be grown.
So I was camping.
I was at a KOA, and they have a kids youth center, and they were doing karaoke.
And I didn’t know what karaoke was because I was sheltered.
And all the teenagers were like, Do you want to come to karaoke with us?
And I was like, This is my dream.
Yes, I do.
So I put on my sparkly lip gloss.
No idea what it is.
So I picked Genie in a Bottle by Christina Aguilera because I liked genies.
I thought I was going to get a genie toy or watch a genie commercial.
I didn’t know.
And no one helped me.
So I was just like, Baby, rub me the right way.
And I can’t get over it.
I still don’t sing karaoke because it was mortifying.
