Here are a few of my Darwin Award Candidates that I have.There is also a HUGE possibility that some of you know some too.

I hope you all enjoy these!

1.- When his .38-calibre revolver failed to fire at its
intended victim during a holdup in Long Beach, CA, robber James Elliot did something that can only inspire wonder: he peered down the barrel and tried the trigger again. Happily for most concerned, this time it worked.


2 - Laborer Alexander Robinson of Mobile, Alabama, redefined the limits of tactlessness when he opened his eyes after surgery to restore his sight and said agreeably to his wife: 'Boy, you sure have got fat in four years.'


3 - The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a meat-cutting machine and, after a little hopping around, submitted a claim to his insurance company.
The company, suspecting negligence, sent out one of its men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine out and lost a finger. The chef's claim was approved.


4 - Mourners at the funeral of Anna Bochinsky in Moinesti, Rumania, were naturally somewhat taken aback when she abruptly leapt from her coffin as it was being carried to the grave. Before they could react to this unexpected outburst, the woman bounded into the nearest road, where she was run over and killed by a passing car.


5 - An American tourist in South America had the misfortune to be attacked by killer bees as he stood on the bank of the Amazon. Seeking refuge, he leapt into the river - and was devoured by piranha fish.


6 - A Malaysian monkey that had been trained to gather coconuts from trees demonstrated a pressing need for a refresher course when it leapt onto the shoulders of a passerby in Kuala Lumpur and tried to twist his head off. The passerby was treated at a local hospital for a sprained neck.


7 - In Fort Lauderdale, Florida, a sixteen-year-old youth was charged with beating up his fifteen-year-old wife after the latter hid the caps to his toy pistol.


8 - A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a space for his car during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his vehicle to find a woman had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her dead.


9 - One of the criteria by which Miss Nude USA was chosen in 1979 was taste in clothing.


10 - After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped.

Not wanting to admit his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus-stop and offered everyone in the queue a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital, telling staff that the patients were very excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies.

The deception wasn't discovered for 3 days.

If #10 had taken place in California, they would all still be in the mental ward! (including the driver)

It is with a sigh of relief to see that I didn't make the list.

 

What about the guy who was walking along the street when his cell phone rang. He became so engrossed in the conversation that he stopped walking--right at a railroad crossing--and was hit by a train! Heard this one on the radio last year. Happened somewhere in Asia.

All of those are true eh? Talk about bad luck for that pirhana guy, i dunno what i'd have done, prolly the same damn thing....Still confused how someone hops outta their coffin......then gets run over to top it off

 

Here's a good one just heard on the radio last night. A Detroit car-jacker was being led handcuffed through the municipal law offices and suddenly jerked free of the officer who was leading him, bolted into an adjacent room, and dove through a plate glass window. Apparently he didn't realize it, but he was on the 8th floor.

Whoops, just found out the carjacker story happened in Philidelphia. And he died!
