2008 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

a 38 yr old male was admitted to hospital after being attacked by 3 dogs. He had - according to various accounts - been looking for work (national paper and radio) been visiting his girlfriend (himself) and looking for his doctor (again himself, later) or just planning a plain piece of thievery (local popular opinion). Whatever the exact motive, in an intoxicated state, he climbed over a garden fence at 8 o'clock at night into a private garden known to be guarded by 3 aggressive dogs. He arrived in hospital some time later minus both ears and both testicles, and having failed in any of the alleged objectives of his trespass. After surgery and a recovery period he was allowed home. Though effectively removing his genes from the human pool, perhaps this alone would not have merited a Darwin award. However not to be discouraged, on discharge he walked out of the front door of the hospital straight into the path of an oncoming truck - thus necessitating a readmission for a serious head injury. Still not dead but perhaps third time lucky?

Persistence will eventually pay off for this determined gent. Although for our purposes he need not continue since sans gentials he will not reproduce. I would love to see some verifying link so that I could recommend for a Darwin instead of just a personal account. Thanks iht.

Please do let us know if this incident makes it into any newspapers or other press that we can use for verification. As Chip said, this would qualify for a full DA if we can verify it. Thanks for sending it in!
