A Darwin worthy mention?

Postby expat » Wed Jun 18, 2008 9:33 am

I think that this guy should get a worthy mention at this years awards??

The report

The video

Matt
"A bit of a pickle" - British translation: A catastrophically bad situation with potentially fatal consequences.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Darwin award winners need to die, so that their genetic predisposition for being stupid, doesn't get passed on to offspring.

Now.. if it were something other than his foot getting crushed, he might qualify..   :D ;D

These sort of scenes always seem to present two people involved....

Mr. Idiot who is going to do something really, really, obviously stupid...

...and..

Mr. Sensible (a knowing sort of Chap) who says to Mr. Idiot....

"Hang on a minute while I get the Camera running"

..."Right-oh...away you go!"..... ;)...!

Paul.... ;D... ;D... ;D...!

I wonder if it might be useful to collect such video's and broadcast them towards our Alien friends in space throught Seti.

"Is the earth worth taking over?"

"Nah I don't think so!"

And thus goes the story that idiots saved mankind!
