Darwin Awards II: Unnatural Selection | Wendy Northcutt
1 post | 6 read
The hilarious New York Times bestselling phenomenon--more than 1.5 million copies sold! The Darwin Awards II: Unnatural Selection brings together a fresh collection of the hapless, the heedless, and the just plain foolhardy among us. Salute the owner of an equipment training school who demonstrates the dangers of driving a forklift by failing to survive the filming of his own safety video. Gawk at the couple who go to sleep on a sloping roof. Witness the shepherd who leaves his rifle unsecured--only to be accidentally shot by one of his own flock. With over one hundred Darwin Award Winners, Honorable Mentions, and debunked Urban Legends, plus science and safety tips for avoiding the scythe of natural selection, The Darwin Awards II proves once again how uncommon common sense can be.

This book is part of an ongoing collection of mostly true stories that end in a way they wouldn‘t have, if only common sense were used. The pages will have you laughing at times, and asking at others, did you really think that was a good idea? What did you think was going to happen?!

A fun read with warnings and a little science thrown in.
