At least they all got out of the gene pool, thank God. Reminds me of a story from years ago regarding the Darwin Award. Allegedly, police found a smashed up hunk of metal in rock several dozen yards from the end of a long straight section of a highway which then curved. They finally figured out it was a car. Apparently the driver, feeling the need for speed, had attached a pair of JATO (Jet Assisted Take Off) units to his vehicle to see how fast he could go. Seems he did not realize there was no OFF switch on them.

BTW, I think this probably qualifies more for the Comedy Thread.
