A few million more like this and we might get that national IQ above 100...

Always remember: "Guns don't kill. Morons do!"

The victim obviously didn't have a vested interest in the outcome.

Don't people know that bullet proof clothing isn't like that crap Superman wears?

You can penetrate it with any sharp object..

That does it! Bulletproof vests should be outlawed! We need to make America safe, and bulletproof vests kill.

He has to sue either the vest company or the beer or whiskey producer. It couldn't have been Armando's fault. Where's Johnny Cochcran? Trial on a dummy before a living being...unthinkable.

Shouldn't this be classified as "assisted suicide"? The guy with the vest volunteered.

Was there a warning on the vest? If not, they're in big trouble.

Let's don't cast this in such a negative light. Edison said that he didn't consider his thousands of attempts to make a working lightbulb failures. He just learned thousands of ways NOT to build a lightbulb.

Yes, but he's got the point now.

Can the same routine win 2 Darwins ?
Well, come to think of it, the 2nd SHOULD be awarded a Darwin of the highest order.

I've seen the following as 1997 & 1999 Darwin Nominee, so it might be bogus

MOSCOW, Russia-A drunk security man asked a colleague at the Moscow bank they were guarding to stab his bulletproof vest to see if it would protect him against a knife attack. It didn't, and the 25-year-old guard died of a heart wound.
