Haha I'm sorry but that is adorable
Yesterday I was in Tescos and as I was walking down the fruit and veg aisle I noticed a guy stacking shelves was staring open mouthed at my crotch. I thought it was a rather forward way for him to be checking me out, but no it turns out my flies were open. And because I was wearing very tight jeans they were WIDE open. 
I then had to pretend I was admiring the leeks and zip myself up discreetly.

Being in a club slightly drunk, wearing big heels and falling on my arse in a puddle of drink. More embarrassing when a group of guys turned around and laughed at me. Luckily some nice guy decided to pick me up.
Some time later falling my my arse in the same puddle of drink. The same group of guys laughs at me. Then help me up.
Falling off a train (it was wet and raining) and getting my leg stuck between the train and pavement. (IT HURT!! and now I have a massive scar on my leg) and my shoe falling off onto the track. The two ladies working at the station were kind to me, while the guy found it highly amusing, cracking jokes and taking the piss.
Getting my head trapped in the bus door at uni.
Sitting at college and (with my dodgy eyesight) it looked like some random guy was reaching his hand out for my bag. So I grabbed his hand. Then looked up at his bewildered face to realise he hadn't been going for my bag at all.
Last year when my housemates saw me completely naked. Cringeeeee.
When I was at my house party, was wearing ridiculous heels and had a drink in my hand - I wasn't drunk. My friends came through the front door and I got all excited and went to walk down the stairs but ended up falling all the way down the stairs spilling my drink on the wall. Luckily a mate caught me. There were a lot of people at that party, and most of them saw the incident.
Being at the swimming pool with my dad and brother. I noticed this one girl from school (who later turned out to be a lesbian) kept staring at me. Everytime I looked up at caught her staring I was thinking why the **** are you staring at me!! My dad then pointed to my boob, and I looked down, and my boob was hanging out of my bikini.
At a college presentation I got awarded a certificate and had to go onto the stage. I wasn't wearing very high heels but was really careful when I walked up the stairs to the stage because I know how clumsy I am. The guy in charge on the stage held out his hand for me to shake and I went to step forward and couldn't - my heel was stuck in the gap on the stage. I ended up leaning forward to shake his hand, then while he was giving s speech I was trying to free my heel. I eventually free'd myself without making a big deal out of it. Must have looked a bit weird though.
I am one of those people where embarrassing, unfortunate things happen to me every day. I am the most clumsy person you will ever meet.

Piks or it didn't happen...
Lol, just kidding
I kept twisting my key in the lock, it wouldn't open, started getting really angry, then noticed I was twisting it the wrong way, neighbours thought I was a loon.
once i was casually facebook-stalking, as you do, and accidentally poked my spanish teacher!! :O Horrifically awkward, that was!! 
Falling flat on all fours in a club just in front of that hot guy , getting up pretending it never happened and trying to walk on with my head down only to bounce off another hot guy to end up down on my arse.

When you think someone is talking to you and they point out they were not talking to you but someone else. Thats why I hate group conversations.
When you bump into someone that you know in town for example, you make some affable small talk, give a pleasant smile and say your goodbyes but . . . you are both planning on walking in the same direction and you have already said goodbye!
This happened to me at the shops the other day so I had to divert and walk down an abandoned railway path.

Calling your teacher "DAD" (or mum) out loud, in class. *CRINGE*

My mum once refered to my dad as Granddad. he was not pleased!
I accidentally called dad by the dogs' name.
Dad responded with "even I'm not that old and grey".

I was at a beach house with some mates, we were working as painters over summer to afford it, and one night I went to have a w'ank, reached for the lube and before it was too late I realised it was the super glue I had left on my desk to fix a lamp I broke, and I glued my hand to my cock. I started panicking and went to eject the pornographic film from the VCR player (this was a few years ago) forgetting super glue was still drying on my other hand, and the video tape now become stuck in my other hand. So one hand glued to my own dick and the other glued to the video tape, both my hand were rendered useless. Long story short, ended up in the hospital and got given some penis cream.
Been watching American Pie have we? haha
When in primary school I often wore the same trousers for a few consecutive days. Whenever I took my trousers off I'd take my socks off at the same time in some unusual manor (I still do this!). Then, the next day in school I'd have put those same trousers on and half-way through the day a sock would fall out of a trouser leg; I don't know how I never felt it before-hand. This happened quite frequently and I always got some strange looks.
I was at an open day, and there was a talk on after the small lunch break - however I was running late having met up with a friend at the uni and so ran into the building and burst into the lecture theatre - and found myself in the wrong one... Wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't carrying my Sheffield Open Day plastic bag, so I was met by quite a lot of laughs turns out that it was the lecture theatre next door... So close :')
Oh and about twenty minutes ago I forgot my boyfriends name while I was lending his sister a pair of my shoes. I was just handing them over and said 'When you're done with them, just give them to.....' *long silence* 's*** ive forgotten his name'. We've been dating for 2 years... Oops

walking inbetween a tall hedge and a lamppost with a massive umbrella then getting stuck because the gap wasnt big enough :/
Oh this thread is such a good laugh.
I went into the wrong lecture in second year, I do International Business and ended up in an Engineering lecture where they were talking about air con and ventilation systems! I was too embarrassed to leave so I stayed and sat on my own, and even pretended to sign an attendance sheet they passed around.... I also took notes.... I was worried that the lecturer would ask me questions because I was sat right in the middle, it was so funny thinking back though because I had the most awkward expression on my face the whole way through and got texts from people asking where I was, having to explain was too difficult.
Another REALLY embarrassing incident in first year was when I arrived late to another lecture and I couldn't get to where my friends were sitting so I sat on my own, I was speaking to them on Facebook chat when one of them told me that they had arrived back to their room in halls last night to find a totally random drunk guy asleep in their bed and after they called the residence desk to throw him out they realised he had also pissed in their bed, I started was pissing myself laughing and the harder I tried to stop myself the more I would spaz out, I then heard them across from me laughing at me laughing, and it all just went to **** from there, I was so red with embarrassment and spent the rest of the lecture with my head down mostly in my hands...
One of my more recent ones was at the toilets in Edinburgh Station, it was so busy as well, I put my 30p in the little money slot and tried to get through the barrier but I couldn't and after 2 or 3 tries I noticed it had spat my 30p out, so I put it back in and it was accepted, but I still couldn't get through the barrier, there was a queue behind me and I got really flustered and said to the person behind me 'Oh man this thing's not working!' before I realised I had put my change in the wrong money slot for that barrier (there's two), it was so busy that it was difficult to get out of the barrier to go into the next one, and said 'Oh man it was in the wrong one!' - I was so embarrassed and wish I'd just not said anything...

Potentially embarrassing:
Having to hold in some seriously smelly farts for TWO HOURS of non stop talks at an open day in which the lecture room was crammed.
That was not fun.

I've been caught with dress and wind too - but this must have made it so worthwhile!
