Man dies after condom machine explosion

A young man from central Germany died in tragic circumstances on Christmas Eve after blowing up a condom machine with a homemade bomb.

The 29-year-old from Münster was hit by a steel shard from the condom dispenser which was positioned on a quiet street, local police disclosed on Monday.

Along with two friends, aged 27 and 29, the man had attached a homemade explosive device to the machine in an apparent attempt to get at the goods and money inside.

But he was unable to make it to safety in time, with the door of his car still open as the device detonated. The shard of metal then struck him in the head, leaving him unconscious.

His two accomplices took the man to hospital but he died of his wounds shortly afterwards.

At first the men claimed their friend had injured himself after falling down the stairs, before one later admitted to the connection to the exploded machine.

Police confirmed that the men did not take the money or condoms which had been set loose by the explosion. After being alerted by local residents, officers found the contents of the machine scattered on the street in front of it.

The two survivors of the incident were arrested before later being released from custody.

A true Darwin Award Winner.

He killed himself in an attempt to get condoms. Presumably to ensure he would not pass on his defective genes.

Ooops. Münster s/b Münster.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Crazy me, but I would have just paid for the condoms.

Death by condom

It’s not a condom machine, it is a condom dispenser. And it dished out some woopa$$.

My first though was, “why would you go through the trouble of assembling a bomb just to get condoms?” Then it occurred to me that he might be one of Germany’s recent “refugees,” and so had plenty of bombs on hand anyway.

I wonder how much money was in that machine? More than it cost to make a bomb?

Well, there was no name of the perp mentioned, meaning it was probably "Achmed" (as in dead terrorist) or "Muhammed" or something along those lines.

Doesn't sound tragic to me.

This time, the condoms shot back.
