While I am definitely inclined to contact the Darwin Awards on this one, here is an interesting headline and article blurb from the website of The Age.
| Man Dies After Being Flung Into Tree |
Hmm…here’s how it appeared on the homepage:
While I feel for his loved ones in what is undoubtedly a terrible time for them, I am more inclined to believe that the moment where things went horribly wrong, was at the moment he and his mate decided it would be a good idea to go for a ride on a wheelie bin, rather than the moment it crashed into the gutter, flinging him into a tree.
Unfortunately, nothing stops pure stupidity! Both in riding wheelie bins, and news reporters missing the point!
