People who can be just plain stupid

I have read some things and heard some things that were funny, but just plain stupid. I will tell you some examples now. If you have any other stupid people facts, post here.

There was once a person who tried to saw a grenade in half because he wanted to see how it works. He died.

There was a group of guys that bought alot of weaponry along with a new van, and they went out to a frozen lake. They had dynamite and were drunk. They decided to celebrate, and they had there dog with them. They lit the dynamite, and threw it. The dog decided to go after it, and it picked up the explosive. They tried to shoot at it, so it got freaked out and went right under their van. It exploded.

There was a person who wanted to commit suicide, so he went by the beach, took a noose, a gun, a lighter, and some gasoline, to a tree near the ocean. He poured the gasoline all over himself, he tied the rope to the tree, and he put his head through it.
He tried to light himself the same time that he jumped off a rock to hang himself, and the same time that he tried to shoot himself. Because of the jump, the shot hit the rope and cut it, and he got dumped into the ocean. He fought against the waves, but then realized that this was how to kill himself, so he relaxed. He was then picked up by a fishing boat.
He was ANGRY. He died 3 months later from pneumonia

Smart people, huh?

Post anything else stupid here that has to do with people. Any story like these will do. If you know any of these stories, and I didn't tell them right, please except my apologies. You may say if they are wrong, and can also tell them the right way.

I posted this in February, so its no exactly new.

About a month ago a man was driving to his house. He was still quite a ways to get there but he needed to urinate really badly. He had the radio on and heard people joking about diffrent ways to hold it in. One of the ways was to tie a knot in "It" with a piece of string.
Apparantly it did not work. The guy lost all circulation and has had 52 operations and "It" still doesnt work.

I can almost feel sorry for the guy. But he should have known about the circulatory system.

Wow people can be really stupid sometimes.

Heard this awhile ago. A guy decided to rob a bank but he need someone to keep watch. He got his friend to keep watch. During the heist, he tripped a silent alarm and the police arrived. The man got arrested and asked his friend why he didn't warn him of the police coming. Turns out his friend... blind ;

ha that has got tot be one of the stupidest thing ive ever heard.

Some guy wanted to hover around, like a couple of inches/feet off the ground, so he bought a bunch of weather balloons and tied them to his chair. He strapped himself in and brought a gun (to shoot the balloons so he'd fall). He filled the balloons up, and at this point he's yanking on the rope that's holding him to the ground. He cuts the rope and shoots up into the air. 20,000 ft., to be exact. Yes, he just keeps going until he's over an airport, and nearly gets pounded by a Boeing. Someone finally tells him to get down, so when he's over a lake, he shoots the balloons and shoots downward. He kersplashes in the lake and gets arrested for traffic violation (or something like that).

I tell you, I was laughing my head off when I first heard that!

Your topic title generalized half the human race. Good job.

lord of shadow is right to point you toward the darwin awards, they are the all time resource for people doing the rest of us a favor by accidently or stupidly killing themselves.

My personal favorite involes a couple of blokes who got drunk and got into a contest of who was more manly. I think it went something like this: they got really drunk and found a chain saw so guy#1 chopped his own foot off. Not to be out done, and to prove he was more macho guy#1 won the contest when he CHOPPED OFF HIS OWN HEAD!!!

all that i can say is, wow i hope that is a true story.

Deity or not, however, Pumpille is a veritable girl's blouse compared to Polish farmer Krystof Azninski, who staked a strong claim to being Europe's most macho man by cutting off his own head in 1995. Azninski, 30, had been drinking with friends when it was suggested they strip naked and play some "men's games". Initially they hit each other over the head with frozen turnips, but then one man upped the ante by seizing a chainsaw and cutting off the end of his foot. Not to be outdone, Azninski grabbed the saw and, shouting "Watch this then," je swung at his own head and chopped it off.

"It's funny," said one companion, "when he was young he put on his sister's underwear. But he died like a man."

Ok, that's not dying like a man - that's just being stupid. Seriously. Although I guess that is what this thread is about...

Haha, the blind guy thing is funny. I think I've heard that one before somewhere though...

Some of the stories I got was from a book of the Darwin awards. They are about people who did the favor of "removing themselves from the human gene pool". That way, less of us will be that stupid.

Dumb Criminal Acts

All you need for criminal stupidity.

Okay, this stuff is kinda sad someone always ends up dying! Seriously, there is NOTHING hilarious abut death. But, I guess this is what the thread is all about *sighs*.

PT7, its not the death that makes it funny, it is what they do to acheive it. and the fact that they get results they awerent expecting. of course, the fact that they die isnt funny. at all. sad peeps. <_<

anyway, i have a couple. first, there was a guy who was watching porn, and to help him in his 'ejaculation' he decided to use a vacuum end, with the vacuum activated, to help him out. in the end, his penis was cut off, and he went to the hospital for treatment. they recieved his penis wrapped in a newspaper.

also, there was a guy who was talking on his cellphone, and crossing a rail-line. he was so engrossed in his call, he didnt notice a sppeding bullet-train flying at him at over 160MPh... or was that 260Mph? *cant remember*. anyway, it hit him. hard.

lastly, there was a couple having an affair going for gold [in other words, having sex]. the 'out-of-the-way' place they chose for the act was under a one-tonne semi-trailer. the driver was sleeping in the front seat, and soon woke up and drove off. with the unfaithful couple under the tyres.

i have more, but i will leave it at that.

That's impossible. I mean the fact that he's alive. If he had fallen 20000 ft he would have splattered on the water surface like a fly, if you mean that he came down immediately. Did he break them one by one, or just a couple? Anyway, pretty funny story (and really stupid guy)
