“By definition the Darwin award must be posthumus. There are no living recipients.”
The Darwin Award is given to those who remove themselves from the gene pool. Usually this would require death, but if one were to successfully remove their ability to procreate by, say, urinating on a high tension power line, one could accept the award in person.
Actually, it is technically possible to be eligible for a Darwin Award while not dying.
