Darvinove nagrade za 2005.


Guest

Recommended Posts

Yes, it's that magical time of the year again when the

Darwin Awards are bestowed, honoring the least evolved

among us.

Here then, are the glorious Darwin Award Winners for

2005:

1. When his 38-caliber revolver failed to fire at his

intended victim during a holdup in Long Beach,

California, would-be robber James Elliot did something

that can only inspire wonder. He peered down the

barrel and tried the trigger again. This time it

worked....

2. The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in

a meat cutting machine and, after a little hopping

around, submitted a claim to his insurance company.

The company expecting negligence, sent out one of its

men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine

and lost a finger. The chef's claim was approved.

3. A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a

space for his car during a blizzard in Chicago

returned with his Vehicle to find a woman had taken

the space. Understandably, he shot her.

4. After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a

Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental

patients he was supposed to be transporting from

Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit

his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop

and offered everyone waiting there a free ride. He

then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital,

telling the staff that the patients were very

excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies. The

deception wasn't discovered for 3 days.

5. An American teenager was in the hospital recovering

from serious head wounds received from an oncoming

train. When asked how he received the injuries, the

lad told police that he was simply trying to see how

close he could get his head to a moving train before

he was hit.

6. A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20

bill on the counter, and asked for change. When the

clerk opened the cash drawer, the man pulled a gun and

asked for all the cash in the register, which the

clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from

the clerk and fled, leaving the $20 bill on the

counter. The total amount of cash he got from the

drawer...$15. (If someone points a gun at you and

gives

you money, is a crime committed?)

7. Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty

badly. He decided that he'd just throw a cinder block

through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and

run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over

his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back

and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him

unconscious. The liquor store window was made of

Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape.

8. As a female shopper exited a New York convenience

store, a man grabbed her purse and ran. The clerk

called 911 immediately, and the woman was able to give

them a detailed description of the snatcher. Within

minutes, the police apprehended the snatcher. They put

him in the car and drove back to the store. The thief

was then taken out of the car and told to stand there

for a positive ID. To which he replied, "Yes, officer,

that's her. That's the lady I stole the purse from."

9. The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man

walked into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan, at 5

a.m., flashed a gun, and demanded cash. The clerk

turned him down because he said he couldn't open the

cash register without a food order. When the man

ordered onion rings, the clerk said they weren't

available for breakfast. The man, frustrated, walked

away.

A 5-STAR STUPIDITY AWARD WINNER!

10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a

motor home parked on a Seattle street, he got much

more than he bargained for. Police arrived at the

scene to find a very sick man curled up next to a

motor home near spilled sewage. A police spokesman

said that the man admitted to trying to steal gasoline

and plugged his siphon hose into the motor home's

sewage tank by mistake. The owner of the vehicle

declined to press charges, saying that it was the best

laugh he'd ever had.

Nego, ne izgledaju mi ovo kao klasične Darvinove nagrade, polovina priča je "neuspeli zločinci" i druge smešne situacije.. a zar nije bila poenta Darvinovih nagrada da pomažeš evoluciji time što si poginuo?

to sam i ja mislio, al piše gore da su promenili kriterijum (honoring the least evolved among us, jelte)..

odoh da otvorim još jedan glupi topik, u fazonu sam.

(13 January 2005, Croatia) One fateful afternoon, 55-year-old Marko retreated to his semi-detached workshop to make himself a tool for chimney cleaning. The chimney was too high for a simple broom to work, but if he could attach a brush to a chain and then weigh it down with something, that would do the trick. But what could he use as a weight?

He happened to have the perfect object. It was heavy, yet compact. And best of all, it was made of metal, so he could weld it to the chain. He must have somehow overlooked the fact that it was also a hand grenade and was filled with explosive material.

Marko turned on his welding apparatus and began to create an arc between the chain and the grenade. As the metal heated up, the grenade exploded. The force of the explosion killed poor Marko instantly, blasting shrapnel through the walls of the shed and shattering the windshield of a Mercedes parked outside. Marko's chimney was untouched, however.

LOL
