Some of these been around during the year. This is always good for a laugh!

I vote for #6, myself.

[Texas Eagle]

Last year's winner was the fellow who was killed by a Coke machine which toppled over on top of him as he was attempting to tip a free soda out of it.

Seems like that guy wins every year.

[Nateman]

My favorite winner was the terrorist was was instructed to go out and plant a time bomb and forgot about daylight savings time. It went off an hour earlier than he had planned while he was still in his car with it!

NOTE: This last one wouldn't normally count, because the idiot didn't die. But because he cannot reproduce as a result of his qualifying act of stupidity, we have allowed it.

Unfortunately, the rest of his foursome are still able to reproduce!

[NCjim]

OUCH!

Today we salute you, Mr. Lava Lamp Heater Upper. Some men are satisfied with the slow undulation of a lazy lamp, but it's not bubbling fast enough for you. "Warp speed, Mr. Sulu!" you cry from the bridge of your starship. You're in search of the Mount St. Helens of lava lamps. Sure, it's risky, but did that stop Galileo or Louis Pasteur or Ron Popeil? So turn up the burner, Baron of the Bubbles. You play by only one rule, Mr. Lava Lamp Heater Upper: If you can't stand the heat, take out the kitchen.

flog is a dangerous sport- BANN IT or 5 day waiting period for ball washer sales!!!!

#6 for me! Let's see, how could they explain to this man's family how he died? A classic case of rectus inversus? Oroanalemia?

I vote for Michael Moore who by his shear presence solved the chink in the Darwin theory of evolution. Michael has been confirmed as the missing link between man and ape.

You had to hear the one Rush did on his show a few years ago regarding the Elephant keeper in India who decided to give the constipated elephant an enema...I almost drove off the road!

[A CA Guy]

These are ancient from at least 3 years ago.

[OKSooner]

I hate to say it, but a couple of these sound more like urban legends than real Darwin events. Kinda like "JATO-man" from several years back.

THE 2004 DARWIN AWARDS

Creationists need not apply.....

[Billthedrill]

Number Six is an urban legend. I didn't die at all.

[Tench_Coxe]

humor bookmark. Nothing like a little bleach in the gene pool.

[Rhetorical pi2]

My thinking is that if we use the BCS Computer rankings, we have to go with #6.

However, the AP Poll and Coaches Poll gives the top ranking to #5.

The Sagarin Power Ratings rank the Ball Washer as #1.

This is USC, Oklahoma and Auburn all over again!! We need a playoff in the Darwin Awards ('cept they're mostly all dead.) :o)

[jws3sticks]

Where is John Frenchman Kerry? Maybe he is number zero in the count down.

These idiots did not die either but it should be noted. Just this week in Florida, a teenage couple came home to find their apartment ransacked and 1 lb of weed stolen. Guess what they did! Yup, called the police to report a robbery. When police arrived and asked what was missing, the "victims" stated their pound of weed had been stolen. They really need it back so they can sell it to pay the rent! True story.
