  • Another Darwin Award Winner...

    Russian dies in finals of World Sauna Championships.

    230 degrees. Just remember kids, that's 18 degrees above the point at which water boils. What's wrong with this picture?

              That's only second on the stupid list.

              Having the fireworks stash by the gas tank of the minivan is pure Darwin.

                      I can only assume he landed in such a way to snap the spine, head trauma, or worse landed where his arms / legs caused severe internal damage.

                      It sounds like he tumbled when the cage tipped and couldn't even attempt to brace/plan for impact.

                        I have a friend whose dad, probably also in his 50s based on the timing, was standing on a frozen lake watching a snowmobile race. Feet slipped out from under him, hit the back of his head on the ice from ~6ft up, and was dead before the paramedics arrived.

                        Wear your helmets, folks.

                          I mean I guess you can die landing just right from 6 inches.

                          My question is more how unlucky was he? Is that a one in a million, or a one in ten?
