This book is a must have for collectorS of tacky little fact books that belong in the bathroom to help nature take it's course. The Darwin Awards tributes those individuals who help ensure the long-term survival of our species by removing themselves from the gene pool in stupidly idiotic ways. Our fellow human-beings that have died so stupidly that one cannot help but snicker. It's Evolution in action as Mark and Carol, both in the medical field, were found dead with gas masks attached to their faces, they had died from laughing gas or nitrous oxide poisoning. What makes them stupid is that they should have known better since they both studied medicine. Duh! How about the man who peers into the gasoline can with a cigarette lighter or marvel at the thief who steals electrical wires without shutting off the electrical current. We will laugh, but we must Thank God that we are smarter than these silly people. At least we had smarter parents since we made it this far without making a hazardous mistake. A fun book but it's low grade humor at it's best. Use it in the John, when you run out of toilet paper.Read full review
Years ago, a guy named Charles Darwin came up with the theory of 'Survival of the Fittest'. This book proves that Darwin was RIGHT! Open the book & read the tales of those selfless people who constantly strive to improve the human gene pool...by removing themselves from it in the most insanely stupid ways imaginable! Clearly these hapless individuals have done an invaluable service in the cause of Evolution by ensuring that their faulty genes NEVER get passed on to succeeding generations. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll say "So that's what happened to Uncle Harry." A must-read for anyone interested in the theory that God must love idiots because he made so MANY of them!
So happy to find this. It was a replacement for a copy that got damaged. I was glad I could find a copy to replace it.
