Darwin Awards - Tiny Electric Fence

Named in honor of Charles Darwin, the father of evolution, the Darwin Awards commemorate those who improve our gene pool by removing themselves from it.

Here's one of the most recent stories:


Tiny Electric Fence
2010 Darwin Award Nominee - 10 January 2010, Brazil

An electrical discharge made toast of municipal guard Arthur de Souza Coelho, 47, on Sunday evening.
According to police reports, he had installed a tiny electric fence around his car to protect against the frequent robberies that occur in his neighborhood in Belem, Para.
Then (direct translation from Portuguese) "he forgot that he had left the fence on and he ended dying with the electric shock."

After all, we are all dying, but some end sooner than others.
