I had a great great uncle go out in spectacular fashion. This happened in either the 40s or 50s. He got drunk at the bar and decided to walk home. He got tired and decided to take a nap. On train tracks. The buzzards found more of him than the family did and it’s quite the legend in our family now.

I have a Darwin Award from 1982. An acquaintance of my husband decided to string up a dummy for Devil's night using wire on a high-voltage line that fed into the local iron ore mine. Someone called the fire department as the field appeared to be on fire. It was the acquaintance burning up as the wire he used hit the high-voltage line. There wasn't much to recover.

Whilst doing some DIY bungee jumping off of a 140ft high, stone railway arch, I almost got a Darwin award. Anyone who's done a bungee jump knows that you swing front to back. On the back swing, the bungee cord recoiled me into the underside of the stone arch, fracturing my skull. To give you some idea how I use to roll as a kid, I've also driven under a parked car at 50mph on a home made go cart. Accidentally set the house on fire. Got electrocuted twice. And at 13, had already blown myself up with DIY fireworks....twice. My mum said "it was the proudest day of her life that I made it to adulthood."

I have one for Darwin Award. In 2007 the Indianapolis Colts won the Super Bowl. The night they won we had a Snowstorm here in Indy. A man went to a Colt Sports bar in Indy to watch the game and made the unfortunate decision to drive home drunk that night after the game. The area on way to his home is in wealthy Carmel, Indiana which is rural with large estates. On way home the man's car got stuck in a snow drift. He lived a few miles away and decided to walk home abandoning his car. He was reported missing the next day and police found his car. The NEXT day a hunter found his body. What happened the drunk man walked through the woods on his way home and became disoriented by the snow storm. He walked right off the ledge of a rock quarry falling about 30 feet to the ground where the hunter found him dead. The lesson once again is don't drive drunk, abandon your car in a snow storm and try walking home in a snow storm drunk.

[@aperson9495]

When riding a motorcycle, the odds are heavily stacked against you. I'm not saying you CAN'T be saved by wearing a helmet, heck, my grandfather laid his motorcycle down after hitting a dog that ran out in front of him many years ago and walked away with just some road rash. But during my time as a volunteer firefighter, I saw more than a few motorcycle involved crashes and in not one call that I responded to did the person on the motorcycle survive, despite wearing a helmet. The bottom line is yes, wearing a helmet MIGHT save your life, but the odds of it aren't great. If you just lay the bike down like my grandfather did, your odds are pretty good, but if you hit something and get launched off the bike, not so much. One call I responded to, the person driving the motorcycle drove straight into a power pole and got launched off the bike square into the pole. Kind of hard to survive with your neck broken and chest caved in and mush from impacting the pole 😳.

My father had to drive through some unlit construction at night on his motorcycle, and hit a pylon streight on. His wheel collapsed and the front fork failed, and he got launched, fortunately landing in an open spot. He broke his ankle, and split his helmet, but suffered no other injuries. The doctors were clear that he likely would not have survived without the head protection.

[@KingOhmni]

Regarding the MRI scanner Darwin Award. I nearly got one of them but instead ended up in A&E for a minor head wound. Long and short of it is I was given a patient gown, the ones with cut out side and normally, no pockets. This gown had a chest pocket. In which I dropped the metal locker key I had been given for a locker I stored my personal belongings+clothes in. Before entering the MRI room a nurse asked me if I had anything metallic on me. I patted my thighs where normally my trouser pockets would be, laughed and said I’ve got no pockets. I was then admitted to the MRI room and laid down on the patient tray as a doctor explained what was going to happen. Well as you can imagine the moment the MRI was switched on the locker key was pulled out of my pocket, bounced off my high cheek bones missing my eye, caught my skin across the forehead tearing it a bit and then glued itself to the MRI machine with a loud bang. Doctor had his hand over the kill switch. The one that would dump the coolant and destroy the very expensive super magnet but stop the machine in an instant. He said he had visions of the key entering my ocular cavity and rattling around the inside of my skull leaving me a vegetable if lucky. As is I put a significant dent in a very expensive machine and got laughed at by the nurses for getting admitted to A&E for a minor head wound when I initially turned up to hospital for a back injury related MRI scan. The flip side is I caused my local hospital to change it’s process regarding patient gowns with chest pockets, metal keys and nurses not just accepting a patient has no pockets because they jokingly said so. I’d like to think my almost Darwin Award prevented someone else definitely getting one. So there you go. You never know when you may be about to be a contender for a Darwin Award so keeps your wits about you. I really should have known better than to absent mindedly drop a metal key into a pocket before going to a MRI scan.

@@jeanettetedesco6748 - it might be difficult picking up very small bits of metal. But they do have something better than an ordinary metal detector... When I had to get a knee MRI years ago they asked me about ferromagnetic parts in my body. As I had got some welding slag into my eye years before and was not sure whether it had all been removed I told them about it. They quickly put me through a head x-ray to check. There were no iron bits left in my eye. Good to check to be sure. Obviously you don't want to x-ray everybody if there is no reason at all to believe that they have ferromagnetic material hidden somewhere inside the body.

Remember the trend of making a necklace with a bullet hanging from it? We had a solider decide that bigger was better, so instead of a 7.62mm he decided he was going to use a .5”. To mount the bullet it involves drilling out the center of the bullet and filling it with glue. Well unlike its 7.62 counterpart the .5” has an explosive tip. As he drilled out the tip, the explosive detonated, taking off half his hand. Now if he’d only asked a gunner he’d be walking around with intact paws.

Hood surfing is an activity where people slide across the hood of random cars and is a stunt commonly performed in action movies. However, he didn't realize that one of the cars he was about to surf was starting to pull out. He slipped and fell off the hood of the car and got his skull crushed under the moving car's tire.

[@MrAranton]

@@Tess_Tickal yes it does. Your perspective influences what your definition of „on time“ is. Iirc Germany‘s DB considers a train late when it‘s more than six minutes behind schedule. If you think of it, that‘s nothing, particularly with long distances. If you’re six minutes late after a five hour journey that‘s about 2% of your travel time. Now if you compare this to poorer countries with worse infrastructure - i.e. 90% of the world - being just six minutes behind schedule isn‘t a delay worth complaining about, it‘s frigging awesome! I get there are worse delays than those six minutes. And if you muss your connection, it make little difference by how much you miss it. But that doesn‘t change the fact that compared to most other countries Germany‘s rail system is top notch.

I had a friend, who is now deceased from old age. He was changing the U-joint on his 1973 Buick. So, a pretty heavy, rear wheel drive car. He had put the car up on a set of ramps to gain access to the driveshaft. He figured it was fine in "Park." I saw him a day or two after his....uh...cerebral flatulence attack. His head was a massive bruise. His comment was, "Everything was going fine until I separated the driveshaft from the transmission. Then all hell broke loose. The car rolled back, almost crushing my melon head." Duh!! The car was not injured.

[@williamkan4158]

I know one too :In 1997, Police in Reston, Virginia, issued a statement saying they had found the body of 22-year-old Eric Barcia, who had apparently died attempting to bungee jump off a 70 foot bridge. Eschewing commercial bungee operations, Eric had apparently taken matters into his own hands and tied several bungee cords together. He strapped himself on securely, tied the other end to the bridge, and jumped, confident in the knowledge that he’d carefully measured out the bungee’s total length - just under 70 foot. Of course, what Eric had forgotten was that bungee cords stretch. At least he got the Darvin reward when he landed😂

That is inaccurate because even if the content creator did make series everyday every living thing has a lifespan so death is inevitable by age thus ending the series. Even if he is somehow immortal earth's habitability is at the maximum 1 billion years when the sun becomes so luminous (%10 higher than the current sun) due to solar evolution that a runaway greenhouse effect will occur from the increased energy the earth receives from the future sun. On top of that mass extinctions are guaranteed during this time that would lead to the downfall of technology that this series relies on. Also as even more time passes by in about 5 billion years not only will earth be molten by that point from the ever increasing luminosity but the sun will swell and become a red giant that will last billions of years making life past Mars too hot to exist and melt every single icy body at and beyond jupiter. For example Europa will become a hot ocean. I can go on explaining the eventual white dwarf and so on but I will not due to limited space. Also coronal mass ejections that the sun release from time to time towards our direction would destroy most technology. The Carrington event is a well known one but we did not rely as heavily on technology. Therefore the end of the series is and will end eventually and inevitably on a realistic scale.

Just as I was graduating high school, I was working at a lumber store. I worked 2nd shift at the store so I didn't know what had happened during the day shift. Turns out, a young guy about 19-20 was crushed by about 2000 lbs of dry wall. Apparently, the forklift driver had lifted the drywall up about 2 ft so the guy could put 2x4 spacers underneath. He couldn't keep the spacers even so he slid his body underneath to fix the space. The guy was crushed to death when one of the forks on the lift had broken thus killing the guy instantly. From what I remember, the fork that broke was broken before and welded back on and placed back into service.

It’s not an ACTUAL Darwin Award, but, it ALMOST was……………. I LOVE to read. As a teenager, I did A LOT of reading. R L Stine, the way the human body works, recipe books, books on animals, herbal remedies, pretty much whatever I could get my hands on. So, I was about 13 or so. I was reading a book at home. I don’t recall the name of the book, but, it HAD to be about how tea was made. I read a part that said that tea was made by pouring boiling water over dried leaves. I got excited(because I LOVE tea). I thought to myself “gee we have LOTS of dried leaves in the garden(my mom grew lots of different kinds of fruit trees on her property & it was Winter). I marked my spot in the book, & rushed out to the garden. I happily grabbed several leaves that were dried & didn’t have bird poop on them from the first tree I got too(it was an apricot tree). I took them inside & boiled some water. I made myself a nice little cup of hot tea( adding sugar, honey, & lemon to taste). After I made & drank the tea. I went to bed. The next day I was sick(as if I had the flu). My mom( knowing I’d made the tea the night before), got worried & called the poison control center. After talking with the lady on the phone(& asking me which tree I’d gotten the leaves from), my mom found out that peach trees & apricot trees have cyanide in them! The lady on the phone said thankfully, each time I’d added something to the leaves(water, honey, sugar, & lemon), that the cyanide got diluted to a certain level & that I must have managed to dilute it to where I just got enough of it to make myself sick! My mom was told to treat me as if I had the flu. The lady told my mom that if I got worse or didn’t get better in a few days to take me to the doctor/hospital. If ONLY I’d continued reading, I WOULD have read that the leaves were TEA(or some other kind of edible herb)LEAVES! So, I ALMOST committed suicide(without me even feeling suicidal)! 😰😱😨🙄

The story about the Japanese person trying to fix a light bulb with a stack of wooden pallets and a fork lift, I got a story like that I know actually happened, because it happened at my work place. I work for a school district, and outside contractors were sent to look at a divider curtain for the gym and make adjustments on top on the ceiling where the curtain hanged. They had a cherry picker, but in order to move the cherry picker, they "should" lower the thing first, then move to position, then raise it. It "should" happen every time you move it, also the person going up and down on it "should" have a safety harness incase they fall, but these contractors were apparently in a rush, a guy pushed the cherry picker along while it was still raised and the person inside wasn't wearing their harness. At some moment, the whole cherry picker tipped over and the person inside got severely injured that he didn't live long after the whole thing fell.

So #2 on this list is very close to SOP at a place I used to work at for reaching things on the ceiling such as light fixtures and fire pipes. The differences are: 1) we use an iGPS pallet instead of wooden pallets, which are more suitable for this, 2) we use only one pallet instead of a stack to reduce the number of points of failure, and 3) we don't move the pallet at elevation with a worker on it. There's also a load stabilizing grate, so we can connect a harness to that grate and it would hold a worker's weight if the worker fell from the pallet and prevent him from falling to the ground.

This guy, however, thought his cat has gotten out, so without even checking the other possibilities, left his house to look for his cat. Because his cat has did it before, he thought his cat would hide in the huge trash can outside his house, so he dived head-first into it to look for his cat. Well, this is the part where he would regret everything. There was a bottle of hydrofluoric acid(opened)in the trash can, so when it touched his skin, he instantly got burnt and hurt.

The phrase comes from the 1930's when the Nazi's ran an extremely neurotic tight ship. The trains were on time because if they weren't the Nazi's would find who was responsible and needless to say you don't want to be on the Nazi's shitlist. The "trains running on time" is referencing the fucking trains carrying Jews to Auchwitz because they wanted to exterminate them as fast as possible.

There was a plastic bag full of hydrofluoric acid in the bottom of the bin, and when he jumped into the bin, his weight punctured the plastic bag, and out flowed the acid. His skin instantly got hurt and burnt when it came into contact with the acid. But instead of going to the hospital, Tom licked the acid off his soaked hand. Well, to say the least, when the garbage collector came to collect the trash the next day, he was in for a big surprise, a very dead man and no cat.

They were huge flames, so bright you could see it from miles away. Security from an electric substation knew exactly what happened, as they witnessed everything, yet couldn't believe someone would be so dumb to do that. Turns out some rando decided to climb all the way up a high tension pole to steal modernity's gold: copper wires. A decision so dumb not even security believed he was actually there as not even they could get close.

I haven't seen this channel in some years. I have to say, the animated bits are good. Good improvement in quality.

I couldn’t agree more

Oh my goodness. These are hilariously sad. And your voice is perfect, by the way.

My favorite part in this video is “WHO WANTS SUMMA THESE?”😂😂😂😂😂! 11:09

I'm a gun owner - worst I ever did was forget to take it out of my purse before going to the hospital. The good news about that is, the EMTs know me and will ask me beforehand if I have anything that needs to be safely stored in my house because evidently, they got chewed out by hospital staff for not asking each patient. I wasn't the only one. Thankfully, the hospital staff basically militaried my piece by taking it apart piece by piece. It was only the one time but I do not have my gun ready for firing. I have to breech it back because it doesn't have a safety so instead of keeping it ready to fire, I don't breech it, meaning no bullet in chamber, meaning safe. In the event of an emergency, I will need to breech it to fire but I was trained by a police officer and he went over all safety and firing courses. I'm a responsible owner. Hopefully, I will never have to use it.

I guess incidents like that are why I was the only one allowed in the MRI room when I was having mine done. Also, alcohol and gasoline smell nothing alike. How'd he mix those two smells up, and why would he drink something of his friend's without permission?

The industrial steghnth glue, I think, wins the Darwin awards Darwin award.

More Darwin Awards? Things just get better and better. Love the series.

[@Taragatie]

Man, in my opinion, this is legit the best part. Goofy illustration. Laugh-your-ass-off stories. I chuckled and even wheezed hard at a ton of these.

"I guess he wasnt the only one who got shafted" cracked me up for the DarLosers
