Talking Darwin Diving Award

XeN and I were talking about the Darwin Awards on the way to do a dive yesterday, and thought that there must be some candidates in the diving world

Now for those who have not come across the Darwin Awards they are awarded to those individuals who demonstrate that the general population would be much better off without them adding to the jean pool.

Now hears a couple of examples to get you started.
Moray eel bites thumb off

- Moray Eel Attacks Scuba Diver

Shark Kissing

- Scuba Diving Accident

Thanks XeN for the links. Now over to you guys lets see who you think should get the YD Darwin Award for 2007.

I managed a major entry effort once and was only excluded because I survived. But don't worry as I don't want any kids so won't be contributing to the GENE pool!

Rustferret, it is exactly that 'fast typing without thinking' attitude, if allowed to happen when diving, that can put you in danger of being out of the jean pool! Mind you, why would you be typing whilst diving?
