(January 2008, Pennsylvania) A 23-year-old man with various body piercings wondered what it would feel like to connect his workplace test equipment to his chest piercings. Several co-workers tried to convince him that it was a bad idea to wire himself up to the electronic control tester, but he ignored their pleas. He proceeded to connect two alligator clips to his piercings and hit the test button... When the police and rescue personnel arrived, his co-workers were stiill trying to revive him with CPR and rescue breathing. They were not successful.

I'm thinking Hades has a nifty 'rubber room' for these dweebs.  In the US Navy electronics tech schools, the morons are called "R5" - because in testing, the "Dummy Load" resistor is always R5. This guy made himself a "Dummy Load" in more ways than one!

Wow, that picture reminded me of the u tube guys that had their friend shoot the bottle rocket out his backside while on his back in their driveway. funny how things fall, gravity works all the time. In their case the sparks from the fuse fell upon his lower parts...hehehehe LOL I could almost smell the burnt hair...wowHave any of you seen the Darwin movie? kind of good...
