Nothing ruins a perfectly good plan quite like nature—or a complete lack of common sense. From a 1969 Mississippi "hurricane rager" that met a 24-foot tidal wave, to an overconfident footballer's 100-foot cliff jump gone wrong, this episode of The Infographics Show counts down some of the most embarrassing, ridiculous, and downright unbelievable ways people have removed themselves from the gene pool.
Welcome to the Darwin Awards: Evolution’s way of saying, "Thanks for playing."
We’re breaking down the wild stories of poachers getting outmatched by elephants, a New Jersey man playing chicken with live power lines, a legendary athlete flying high on a dangerous cocktail, and a thief who got a little too close to the kitchen exhaust vent.
