Darwin Award

armageddon272 · 06-16-2005, 03:48 PM

For those of you who don't know, a Darwin Award is awarded to those who have removed themselves from the genepool (either by dying or causing them to be inable to have children) by doing stupid things and therefore helping to remove the stupid gene from the gene pool.

This is a new one that realy caught my eye.

There are so many people I can think of that I wish would become candidiates for the Darwin awards

Lavindathar · 06-16-2005, 06:17 PM

I gave it a 5.

Mack_Attack · 06-16-2005, 08:53 PM

I give it a 5.1

I seen this on Myth busters. And they proved that it is very hard to get a flash firer in a port-a-potty. The mixture of methane and O2. Has to be exact and that is a large area.

Maybe someone didn't clean up the place for a very long time.

While this may be true... I don't really think it qualifies for a Darwin award... As it is normally quite safe to smoke on the toilet, the guy in question didn't harm himself through stupidity... it was a one-off case...

This is one of the best ones I have heard. I am just telling by memory so if I misquote or don’t tell it quite right I apologize. Basically it goes:

A zoo keeper had an elephant that seemed to be having a problem…er…was backed up, I guess you could say. The zoo keeper gave the elephant laxatives for a few days with no apparent result. He then decided to give the elephant an enema. Then enema worked, very well in fact. The unfortunate zoo keeper was buried under

and suffocated by a very large pile or elephant dung.
