What might be the worst high five in history was recorded on international television at this weekend's Formula One race in Austin. It is worthy of your shame.

Why those 117,427 other people did not mercilessly pummel these two awkward dudes for their crime against high fives worldwide is beyond us. Please, stand up for good high fives and remember the elbow.
