I heard of this one Darwin Award winner once. He was exploring Africa and was attacked by tsetse flies. So he jumped into a river and was eaten by piranha instead.

Also, I heard this one story about someone who wanted to try out his bullet proof vest, so he asked his friend to stab him with a knife. nuff said.

Any story that starts: “Here, hold my beer, watch this” generally gets into our Darwin award category.

Sounds more like South America - you sure the river wasn’t the Amazon? Either that or the piranha were really crocs.

Very doubtful. Piranha are found in the waters of the Amazon basin, on the continent of South America.

Piranha are South American, aren’t they?
