Courtrooms are usually serious places — but sometimes people can’t help making mistakes or giving unexpected attitude that has everyone laughing.
One clip shows a nervous defendant calling the judge “mom” by accident, leaving the whole room in stitches while the judge tried to keep a straight face. In another, a lawyer slipped up and called the judge “honey,” before immediately turning bright red with embarrassment.
Then there are the moments where defendants try to act too confident — like the man who spoke entirely in slang, leaving the judge and lawyers completely confused, or the teen who laughed during testimony only to be shut down instantly by the judge’s reply.
These clips go viral because they remind people that even in the most serious settings, humans are still human — and a little humor (or attitude) can turn a courtroom into something that feels straight out of a comedy show.
