When I was at university I had to do a presentation in front of three professors, I stuttered heavily but just about got through it somehow. When I left, I realized the walls were just partitioned and there was a gap at the top, so a huge line of about 50 other students who were queuing for something in silence outside heard the entire thing. Walking down the line with every student staring at me was definitely a low point.
