40 funny and ridiculous photos from family albums

In 2009, two childhood friends created a simple blog called "Ridiculous Family Photos". It is unlikely that then they could have thought that over the years it would turn into a mega-popular project with millions of subscribers in all major social networks! That's because each of us has strange, ridiculous, ugly and simply funny photos in our family album, which it's a sin not to share with the world.
