Dumb Ways to Die

In Virginia in 2003, a man was bit by a dog. He went after the mutt with a rifle, determined to beat the dog to death with the butt of the gun. You can see this coming can't you? While the man was thumping the dog, the rifle went off and the man shot himself to death. The dog recovered nicely.

I died several times in my early years. Mainly playing grotty working men's clubs between bingo sessions.

(Iowa) An adventurous pair decided to take their ropes and rappel off the Boone Scenic Valley Railroad train over the Des Moines river. Words can't describe how breathtakingly high this narrow train bridge is over the river valley. The open train ride over the abyss is both stunningly beautiful and somewhat nerve-wracking.
Our adventurers had to be completely fearless, because they walked to the middle of this narrow railroad bridge, tied off their ropes, and began to rappel down. When the train came by on it's daily tour of the valley, their one mistake became apparent. They had tied the ropes to the sturdiest support possible: the steel train tracks.

(January 2002, Croatia) A Croatian was killed while trying to open a hand grenade with a chainsaw. He wanted to retrieve the explosive to make firecrackers for the New Year’s holiday.

(April 2003, New Zealand) Phil needed to make repairs to the underside of his car. But when he jacked it up, there wasn't enough room for him to work. So he removed the car's battery, placed the jack on top of it, and set to work again, this time with plenty of elbow-room.
Unfortunately for Phil, car batteries are not designed to carry much weight. The battery collapsed and the jack toppled, trapping him beneath the car. Unable to breathe due to the weight on his chest, he quickly expired in a pool of battery acid.

This incident is illuminated by two additional facts: First, Phil's occupation was Accident Prevention Officer at a large food processing plant. And second, ten years previous, he had been working under a car when the jack collapsed, trapping him and breaking one of his legs. Some people just don't learn -- even from their own mistakes.

Friends of a coworkers wanted to do something special for his fiftieth birthday, so they threw him a party and hired an exotic dancer to pop out of a cake. The birthday boy got the shock of his life when the naked cake dancer turned out to be his daughter. He dropped dead from a heart attack.
