double sister death

2013 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

In 1991, a 57-year-old Thai woman Yooket Paen was walking in her farm when she accidentally slipped on a cow poo, grabbed a naked live wire and got electrocuted to death.

Soon after Paen's funeral, her 52-year-old-sister Yooket Pan was showing her neighbors how the accident happened when she herself slipped on poo , grabbed the same live wire and also got electrocuted to death

While the first death can be attributed to just plain dumb luck, I'd definitely consider the second woman to be worthy of a Darwin for recreating the accident right down to the last fatal detail. Thanks! For the mods, here's a link to a newspaper article for confirmation: http://articles.latimes.com/1991-04-30/news/mn-979_1_live-wire
