The Darwin awards are really aimed at deliberate actions with un-intended accidents, often causing humorous results.

Several clips on there weren’t due to stupidity, just accidents like the rocket launch.

Other clips on there were totally misleading, like the clip at 4:40 of the train crash. That wasnt an accident or stupidity, that’s actually footage of crash tests to see how metal carriages behave. This was decades ago when metal carriages had long replaced wooden ones, however people were still dying in real accidents. Testing carriages like this helped develop crumple zones, just as it has done in the automotive sector, making transport safer.

Well, the ambiguous explosions and unmanned rocket catastrophes towards the end don’t fit in with the rest of the video, but as for the others, great collection of examples of natural selection at work!!

you hadn’t heard of the darwin awards until today? welcome to the internet. noob.

Okay, so you managed to give the accurate description of what the Darwin Awards are, yet didn’t bother to realize that this video is clearly in no way associated with them since it doesn’t follow those rules remotely? This is mainly made up of stupid people hurting themselves or others, disasters, and people getting hurt through no fault of their own. In no way does that qualify for any Darwin Awards. They need to end up dead of unable to reproduce, although they do have honorable mentions for the people who nearly achieved that goal through extreme stupidity, but those are rare, not the majority. Also this video includes the footage of the two burglars hitting themselves in the head with rocks bounced off the window which is a staged television commercial. The Darwin Awards requires careful citation and evidence before creating an award, and they would have disqualified this one within minutes of looking into it.

It’s a great compilation of videos, but your description is false advertising and continues to perpetuate a concept that fills the internet with false information. This is just the video version of those e-mail chain letters we’ve all gotten.

Not true Darwin Awards, most of those people survived. Second, showing space vehicles blowing up is really bad taste. Besides that, great vid.

Ok, some of these were no fault of the victims. I agree that some deserved it because they were doing stupid shit, but some did nothing wrong and the fact that you say this may make my day better…. you’re a piece of shit. I hope something awful happens to you, someone gets it on tape and then it is posted here.

Jerkoff!

As amusing as I find watching my fellow man be injured by his own stupidity, I cannot help but feel sorry for the parents for having produced such stupid children and having to deal with the concequences of their actions.

Ignorant fool, the fireworks explosion in Enschede, was a huge disaster. Dozens of people died that day. And you thought that was there own fault? Screw you, I hope something bad happens to you and it gets caught on tape so everyone can laugh about YOUR death.

why the fuucck would this make my day better?? first of all, in the darwin awards people die, now maybe some people died in this video but it seems like they mostly got mild-critically injured, so these are not darwin awards. just depressing and fucked up. nice job, jackass.

October 29th, 2008 @4:03 pm  

Yeah, not all are Darwin Awards winners but you gotta admit some are good candidates as the title says it. For those who wish me to die and get caught on tape, well, if I can make somebody laugh I guess it’s a good death. At least I’m useful after death too. I don’t personally think all accidents in the movie are funny or because of stupidity, and yeah, some are unfortunate accidents. I didn’t make the compilation, just posted it on my site because some of the accidents are indeed stupid. If you like it that’s great, if not I don’t really care.

I wish you all to smile today ;)

Yes, Anonymous, you pegged it. It’s “stupid Americans” who find those videos funny. Very critical to include “Americans” there, since all Americans and nobody from any other country find the video funny. Prejudiced asshole.

November 2nd, 2008 @2:07 pm  

A few things.

1. Americans are the assholes? R-really? And, like, it’s IMPOSSIBLE for this to have been posted ANYWHERE else in the world? R-r-really?

2. These weren’t indeed Darwin award, and yes, it’s sad that they got hurt, but hey, at least it was funny. You know, it was lucky at least SOMEONE would get something out on an injury or a death. :3

3. Arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. Even if you win, you’re still retarded.

G’day.

Leave drunkfairy alone, he’s only pointing out that stupid people do things like this, I mean yeah sure these are some gruesome videos but most of the shit in them could have been avoided had the victims used common sense. good share ;)

to the people who think that this is perfectly fine to laugh at.. why not throw a clip of 9/11 on there? wouldnt that make it soo much more funny? funny right? ha ha little kids on airplanes getting blown up by jet fuel.. like OMG LMAO.. GAWD that was soo leet…. and then throw in some older people who can’t walk fast enough to get away from the collapsing buildings.. HAHA crushed old people!

…that was sarcasm if you didnt catch it

great idea! I bet those “insurgents” will laugh their ass out. (that was sarcasm too)

now seriously, 9/11 was a shitty day but it was like that because OUR people died that day. every day people get killed around the world, woman get raped, children die of hunger, loose their parents, etc. And 99% of US citizens don’t give a fuck. And 99% of the world didn’t gave a fuck about 9/11. I’m sorry about the people who died that day as I am sorry for people who die every day for whatever reason. I was not terrified on 9/11 because I think it was a natural thing that had to happen. We’ve been protected by our geographical position and that’s why we didn’t get hit by any enemy. So most people thought we’re untouchable. Learn history before you make comments about 9/11 and make a big deal of it. I’m sure I’m going to make a lot of enemies for saying this but 9/11 was not a big deal. It was a big deal for us because we’re not used to get fucked by others. Other people wake up and go to bed under gun fire. I’m a patriot but I’m not close-minded. Watch a video of a child broken in half by a shell, dying in his father’s arms and you won’t find the people jumping from the towers as shocking. Search youtube and see videos of “insurgents” getting “wasted” and read the comments. There are folks that find that funny.

Yeah this “darwin awards candidates” has some really sad scenes in it but others are plain stupid - you don’t look in a fucking gas tank using a lighter. And other are just as sad. I haven’t made that compilation, just found it to be an interesting watch (not necessarily funny). Oh, and don’t think I have a problem with your opinion. It’s yours and I respect it. This is my opinion, though.

fucking idiots.. none.. i mean NONE of these videos meet the true Darwin Award rules.. wich are as follows

Nominees significantly improve the gene pool by eliminating themselves from the human race in an obviously stupid way. They are self-selected examples of the dangers inherent in a lack of common sense, and all human races, cultures, and socioeconomic groups are eligible to compete. Actual winners must meet the following criteria:

Reproduction
Out of the gene pool: dead or sterile.
Excellence
Astounding misapplication of judgment.
Self-Selection
Cause one’s own demise.
Maturity
Capable of sound judgment.
Veracity
The event must be true.

these were coppied right off the website, here is a link
http://www.darwinawards.com/rules/

the guy doing the pole vault does not qualify. he does that professionally, and that was a 100% accident wich had nothign to do with lack of commen sence, or anything of the sort.

if we went around saying every stupid little thing got you a darwin award.. well hell.. most of the world would have a darwin award.. we all do atleast 1 really incredibly stupid thing at some point in our life, that defies all notions of commen sense.

learn what the true meaning of Darwin Awards are and stop saying this crap is it.

on a side note.. twas a funny video. made me laugh, grab my crotch and cry a little.

Gee, I was having a bad day and watching people catch fire, panic, and people having things blow up in their face really DID cheer me up… NOT. Half of these really weren’t darwin awards. Some were simple accidents. So, good freaking day to you!
