According to an old entertainment adage you should "never work with children or animals." If these movie producers had gotten that memo, the world would lack this adorable movie supercut. More importantly, we would never get to experience the phenomenon of 20 years worth of humans behaving foolishly, and animals engaged in a behavior known as the "embarrassed facepaw."

Check out this adorable and hilarious supercut of humans engaging in ridiculous, ill-advised and potentially dangerous behavior, and watch as their animal companions cringe, cower and hide their eyes as if they actually know what's going on. We almost wish we knew what these film beasts were thinking, because if the looks on their faces were any indication, it's probably amazing.
