CONCRETE, Wash.
Skagit County deputies say a man taking selfies while posing with a gun died after he accidentally shot himself in the face on Sunday.
The Skagit County Herald says it happened in front of the 43-year-old man's girlfriend at a home on Baker Loop Road in Concrete.
The Herald said the two had reportedly been taking pictures of themselves with the gun, with the man unloading and reloading the gun several times throughout the day, when he fired the deadly shot.
The death is being investigated as accidental.

This is only the most recent case. There was another gun-selfie accidental suicide only a few months ago.
New Jeff Foxworthy meme: If you need to load a gun to pose for a picture with it, you may be a Millennial.

Does this get him a Darwin Award nomination?I doubt it. He's 43 so he has probably reproduced already.

This was a selfie video of the moron blowing the top of his head off. The selfie video tells the story quite well. But thanks.

Does this get him a Darwin Award nomination?”
Death as a result of ones own stupidity receives bonus points toward that coveted award
