Det er navnet på prisen som blir gitt til gode historier. Eller i manges øyne makabre historier. Historier som ofte ender tragisk for en part. Ett bevis på at evolusjonen har stoppet opp ett sted.
Jeg skal fremover legge ut jevnlig en histore fra darwin awards rundt omkring.
Det er mange dødsfall med i bildet, men det alle har til felles er at det slett ikke dreier seg om å sovne stille inn. Kanskje noe til ettertanke for de som føler seg vågale.
Ikke alle historiene er bekreftet, men likevel spektakulære om de er sanne.
"Wascally Wabbit"
Snowmobiles and alcohol are a dangerous mix. Then came the rabbit.
After a day spent partying and racing snowmobiles in the wilderness, a group of snowmobilers were headed back to their cabin, when up popped a jackrabbit! They gave chase. Several collisions were narrowly averted, and so all the snowmobiles backed off... except one.
This snowmobiler kept his eye on the quarry and rapidly closed in. The rabbit darted aside to save itself. The snowmobiler closed in again. The rabbit ran toward the road, where there was less snow. Trying to ram his rabbit before it crossed the road, the man accelerated to Mach 1.
But the rabbit had other ideas. It darted into the culvert beneath the road. Witnesses stated that the snowmobiler never even braked. There was a metallic crunch as the accelerating vehicle rammed into the culvert, followed by a blast that shattered the snowmobile into a thousand bits.
This brand of snowmobile had a fuel tank mounted in front. The culvert admitted the tip of the snowmobile, then cut into the cowling, spilling fuel over the hot engine. The body of the snowmobiler was blown twenty feet back into the field.
The rabbit's whereabouts was unknown.
