    Im not a fan of the whole Darwin Award thing, but these people would have died in some dumb way like this either way. Just a matter of time.

      They do point out that people seem a bit extra dumb in front of a camera when acting for social media. It’s also weird the photos in the OP made me think it was young women doing this shit - buts its 4 men and 1 was a dad with 3 kids and his wife on the boat (who filmed his death).

      So that means 1) this guy managed to procreate and thus dodged Darwin 2) these people were smart enough to survive to for awhile so double check yourself before you wreck yourself on social media

      I appreciate the Darwin Award concept when moderated tactfully. Like you said, it was a matter of time. So framing these news bites into learning moments has potential value to others imo.
