But he survived!

You can't win a Darwin award if you survive but it does get an honorable mention.

That's not necessarily true in my opinion, Zvinki....

If one somehow manages to, due to their own folly, be either removed from the gene pool or be made incapable of pissing in said gene pool, they should be eligible.

Of course, as I recall, this particular entry was debunked as an 'urban legend' by www.snopes.com. If I weren't currently at work, I'd verify myself.

(snopes.com happens to be blocked by the work firewall. Forunately, auralmoon isn't.

upon which, after realizing that he had spent thousands of dollars on equipment and lessons, only to produce a GY!BE cover album, his family, in full agreement with the court system, had him committed to an insane asylum. His only comment was "They'll see how wrong they were when my TimeCube Theory is proven true!"
