How sad these folks dispatched themselves before they could be vetted by Obamessiah's crack staff (these are the folks who vet nominees for important cabinet positions while on crack!). Pray that they dispatched themselves BEFORE they reproduced!

I don’t think Mr Bingham deserves to be listed as he survived, sans a foot. He can still reproduce. Pretty much all others died, and their genes likely went with them.

I actually feel bad for the guy who got crapped on by the elephant.

“The sheer force of the elephant’s unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him.”

Holy Crap...That stinks!

Fake. #3 is from 1990, and is greatly exaggerated.

I prefer the third place contestant (are they contestants). I keep thinking of the end of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The end occurred with a hail of gunfire. With so many shots fired, it is surprising that no one else was harmed.

Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and pointed out that a coil of lineman's cable, lay near by. They secured one end around Bingham's leg and then tied the other to the bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He miraculously survived his fall into the icy water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen. Bingham's foot was never located.

I thought to make the list, these Einstein's had to die, no?

I dunno. Seems like I’ve seen that elephant dung one a few years back...

Hate to rain on the parade, but these are old. Google “2008 Darwin Awards.”

Another pedant rears his head. LOL.

They’re still funny, no matter the year. And God knows, we all need a laugh about now.
