Darwin Missed...
Almost a Darwin award winner...they can still procreate.
A kid in Lindsborg, KS (20 minutes south of Salina) had filled several
balloons with acetylene and was shooting them with roman candles. He had
about 3 or 4 balloons left in the backseat of the truck, and when he
reached in to pull one of them out he slid it just enough to cause
static & BOOOOOOM!!!!!! He spent a little time in ICU in Wichita, but is
at home now. He blew out both eardrums, had to have a lot of shards of
glass pulled from his torso, face, & eyeballs. His nephew was either in
the truck or close enough by that it blew part of his face off &
required 30 some stitches to get it back. You see the damage to the
truck, but the garage it was by was moved partly off of its foundation,
and the people sitting in their lawn chairs watching this activity were
jolted several feet backwards out of their chairs.

Oh man, when I was in HS I dated a girl who's step brother did the exact same thing, he was trying to pull a garbage bag through a window and created static electricity behind some grocery store and hblew himself up, luckily for him he only lost his hair and hearing temporarily, his friend lost part of his face though, it sounds like an identical story, what was funny is me and Crystal were listening to the radio and laughing at the story in her room, and Shane poked his head in with no hair or eyebrows, she's like you can't be that stupid Shane, he's like what did I do. Interesting fellow, he must have a cousin in Witchita I'm guessing.

That is too funny..I am betting it won't be the last time he has an 'accident' with something explosive. Nature will do its thing and hopefully he will blow himself up real good (survival of the smartest). A couple yrs back I watching Late Nite with C. O'Brien and there was an author who wrote a book on people like this..People are always doing dumb shit to kill themselves; I just wish I could remember the title of the book and some of the outrageous examples of stupidity.

LOL...I think drunk Canadian students get crushed too often. In some Provinces the legal drinking age is 18. Originally Posted by BoneCrusher

NOT THE FIRST AND PROBABLY NOT THE LAST
James Suchomski, 25, and Josh Edleman, 26, told rescue personnel they were filling ballons with acetylene gas to explode as they celebrated Independence Day, Tampa Fire Rescue Capt. Bill Wade said.
The men placed the balloons inside a 1990 Honda Prelude parked in the front yard of a home at 4005 Wyoming Ave. when a static spark ignited the makeshift bombs.
The men were enjoying a Fourth of July gathering that Suchomski's relatives described as ``casual, classic family stuff'' when the explosion occurred.
Suchomski suffered second- degree burns to his face, arms and chest, and he also was wounded by shrapnel from debris blown out of the car.
Edleman suffered first- and second-degree burns to his face and handsCoarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
