Darwin Awards '06

[sapi]

I'm surprised i haven't seen any mention of the results of this years Darwin Awards - which honour people who improve the human gene pool by removing themselves from it - so i figured i'd post up a link.

Honourable mentions this year included hiding inside a helium balloon and trying to open an unexploded rpg with a hammer Seriously

Perhaps the people who come up with these awards could slip over and stab themselves on a sharp peice of paving stone.

Addition by subtraction. Some people's thought processes can be quite astounding, too bad these never got a second chance to do better next time.

I blame some of it on Bugs Bunny cartoons.

DISQUALIFIED: (2006, England) Two people, 17 and 20, imitated Darth Vader and made light sabres from fluorescent light tubes. That's right, they opened up fluoresceent tubes, poured gasoline inside, and lit the end... As one can imagine, a Star Wars sized explosion was not far behind. One died, the other survived to confess to their creative, but stupid, filmed reenactment.

Darwin says, "Some moderators say 17 is too young, but I disagree. 17 is legal driving age. Old enough to pump gas is old enough to know not to light gas."

I can't stop laughing...
