The Darwin Awards

Every Thursday I have decided to post a Darwin award story. The Darwin Awards are awarded to people who have removed themselves from the gene pool in the dumbest ways imaginable. This weeks story took place on 28th May 2004  in Cursi, Italy.

Fabio, 28, left the family ostrich business for a new career as a truck driver. But his interests were more eclectic than the average ostrich-farming truck driver. Relaxing one evening with friends at a pub, Fabio shifted the conversation to his new interest in spy gadgets. He pulled an ordinary looking pen out of his pocket and explained that is was actually a single shot pistol. To demonstrate, he pointed it at his head and clicked the button. The cleverly disguised gadget worked perfectly, sending a fatefully fatal .22- calibre bullet into Fabio’s left occipital lobe.

Until tomorrow Enjoy
