Shoot The Gap - Two Texans Die Trying 2019 Darwin Award Winner
You cannot last long when the road beats you in an IQ test. Unlike the Blues Brothers, they lacked cop tires, cop engine, cop suspension--and a mission from Gawd.

(24 May 2019, Louisiana) Black Bayou Draw Bridge, situated six miles south of Lake Charles, was closed to car traffic and open for a boat to pass through. That drawn drawbridge presented an irresistible challenge to two Texas men, aged 23 and 32, looking for fun on Friday night. May their experiment be a warning to you, my friend.
A witness observed the passenger emerge, push up the arm of the safety gate, and climb back into the car. Then the Chevy Cruze backed up a short distance and accelerated hard up the drawbridge ramp... up and over the edge. Splash!

How about that? They weren't even from Florida this time. Or Arkansas.
There's more at the link. Have fun with this seed coz we need to lighten up around here.
And, please...no politics
Lol I haven't read the seed yet but I'm gonna guess alcohol was involved.
Famous last words. "Dude, hold my beer and watch this."
Little known tidbit. The I-10 bridge in Lake Charles actually is decorated with ironwork that is pistols.
I never noticed that and I've been over that bridge numerous times
A Chevy Cruze are you kidding me. 153 HP in a 1.4 liter engine...it couldn't jump a mud puddle.
When I read "Chevy Cruze" I was like....these guys are brain dead!
Now they really are
My weedeater puts out more HP than that..
To much Dukes of Hazard reruns is my guess
My wife has one of those. It hesitates for at least five seconds before it gives you any acceleration (if the term fits) at all. I could pedal a bike faster. I'd give long odds that Freefaller and Steevie are right about the alcohol.
A pretty dumb stunt but not quite as dumb as the best of the Darwins. That one has to be the guy who, having blown one of the little tubular fuses in his car (the fuse box being under the dash right in front of the steering column) and not having a spare, replaced it with a .22LR cartridge. Although he didn't die, he did effectively remove himself from the gene pool when it blew up right between his legs.
They are everywhere. At least some of them might not be able to reproduce...
I am assuming that's a 60 pound bag of cement. Idiots...
That's the Three Stooges Construction Company
Well, yea. 60 pound bag dropped what...10-12 feet, onto a guy that looks like he is 150 pounds soaking wet? Not gonna work.. LOL
What happens when trying to show off while running from the cops...
Darwin award for the ice bucket challenge...
LMAO!
That operator.....first day on the job? WTF?
Then still dumps the water on him...
The definition of "adding insult to injury".
Hey if it knocked him out, what better way to revive him.
I hope that guy didn't get a fractured skull
Or a broken neck.
Inept criminals...
Those guys are dumb
I have a great mental picture of the police stumbling upon both of them unconscious on the ground and saying WTF!
Let me warm this up..
Along those lines...
I am having too much fun with this. Haha
You can never have too much fun with this.
I have only one question....what the hell is wrong with people?
everything
Here's one that you might find interesting. Came upon it a couple of years back on YouTube. About as funny as it can get. It's about 11 minutes long and I don't know if the stomach muscles can take that much laughing.
