Jet Ski Headbanger

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

edia ref: Iltasanomat paper & web, June 09 2003. http://www.iltasanomat.fi/uutiset/kotimaa.asp (not archived address, valid only today)

Two Guys ride their jet ski under 2.0 per mille alcohol toxication and the passenger rises to stand under a rocky bridge, banging his head to imminent death.

Nice way to remove unnecessary noise from otherwise peacefull lakes.

Happened in southern Finland, Europe, June 2003.

Drunk driving may be common, but standing up under a low bridge at high speed isn't. Could use a better writeup

Maybe Toss: Too Common
Drunken driving of anything is too common-

I dunno. I've known some heavy drinkers who could function quite well under the influence. The submission could use a more humorous write up, but let's leave it to the readers to decide.

Almost Darwin-worthy... but under the influence of alcohol, 0.2% is pretty badly drunk, so I don't know if it qualifies.

Buy a Book!
The third Darwin Awards book is packed with over 100 all-new tales of the triumph of nature over mankind. If you're considering sawing through the tree branch directly overhead... stringing a "shell" necklace of live ammunition... installing deadly boobytraps in your own home... you jut might be a Darwin winner! Illustrations by Zeebarf and McGookin.

"The Darwin Awards... constitute a delicious
sermon in support of common sense."
-The Baltimore Sun
