Darwin Award Winners

On my phone so no link, but a guy ignored signs and verbal warnings of alligators, going so far as to say **** the alligators before jumping in a river for a nighttime swim and being promptly killed by an alligator.
 
sad...

but I do wonder what the book was

and the video probably will go viral, so there's that
 
in related news...

nothing like thinking you're teaching your sons some basic gun safety rules, and forgetting you just loaded the gun a minute earlier

Eric Hummel said he wanted to show his two sons why they shouldn’t play with guns on Saturday. His actions led to him accidentally shooting his 9-year-old daughter in the head and killing her, police say.

The two boys were cleaning their room in their Indiana home on Saturday afternoon when Hummel walked in with his Glock. He told them they should never play with guns, and the boys said he pointed it at each of them and made a “pop” noise, according to the Chicago Tribune.

The gun was originally unloaded, but Hummel then loaded it and forgot he had done so, according to the local CBS station. He said again, “never use a gun,” and “this is why,” as his 9-year-old daughter Olivia walked into the room. He pointed the gun at her head and shot her, according to an arrest report.

The dad in that story needs to enter the competition for the Darwin award. What a moron. When I got my concealed-carry the very first thing they told us in the class was "never point a gun at anything you do not want to destroy", regardless of whether you think it is loaded or not.

That guy is a complete idiot and deserves whatever [additional] punishment they throw at him, and I hope it's a lot. The first thing you should do when handing over a gun is to take out the clip and check the chamber. Then the receiver should check the chamber as well regardless that you just had. This dummy wasn't smart enough to not put a clip in or empty all rounds before doing the dumbest thing possible (pointing a gun at someone)?

I bet this eventually leads to suicide.
 
Sad, but man what a way to die...

A bodybuilder who initially was ridiculed after botching an attempted backflip at a competition reportedly has died because of injuries suffered in the stunt.

Sifiso Lungelo Thabete’s attempt to entertain the crowd as he entered the arena went horribly wrong when he didn’t rotate far enough and landed on his head, breaking his neck.
