There was also a Darwin Award winner nomination in my country. There was a robber who tried to hide from the angry mob while he stop under the hole behind a house. Thinking it was a perfect hiding spot, the robber get inside the hole. But unknown to him, the hole was actually led to septic tank which was full of excrement. So he either died from drowning from the excrement or from asphyxiation.
There was a similar story when a thief, trying to escape the chasing cops, climbed over a wall. The problem is, the wall belonged to a prison. So, the thief put himself in jail. Literally
"The difference between smart and stupid is simple, genius has its limits but stupidity knows no bound" -a quote that I definitely did not stole from Albert Einstein
I disagree, as we can plainly see, there is a boundary to, stupidity. It is found on the ground, the world around, its attractive to flies, its name is demise.
You're right, you didn't steal that quote from Einstein. He's not the one who made the quote. The quote was originally made in French by Alexander Dumas, well before Einstein was born. It was translated into English in a couple of forms, but that was the one that stuck and proliferated. Nearly every interesting quote is attributed to Einstein these days. Almost none of the quotes attributed to him were actually his.
Wasn’t he put behind what was essentially a massive boulder though? They blocked the entrance with it I’m pretty sure. So yea while he wasn’t buried you could argue he was in a way entombed in what they assumed would essentially become his final resting place.
@@ScarletAngleGaara yeah the difference is that being entomb you have more space when you get entomb alive while being buried alive get ready for clostrophobia (I'm not sure if I spelled it right)
Just so y’all know, the influencer who used the dry ice in the pool is a highly qualified pharmacist.

The tail rotor of a helicopter spins so fast it’s difficult to see, which is why some (particularly rescue) have shrouds. Far more dangerous than the main rotors
I baffled about the tourist was so absorbed on the phone that he didnt hear nor felt the vibration of the rotors as he got closer to the back of the Helicopter
In college I had a friend who drank a full pint of Lord Calvert within about 10 minutes. He wretched and vomited violently. Others threw him in the shower and he vomited some more and passed out. His roommate put him to bed the next day he literally looked a greenish gray color. It took a couple of days for him to start feeling better but he never touched another drop of alcohol again! And neither have I
Is Lord Calvert something like Everclear or something? I mean, ten minutes is damn fast for a pint but not something ridiculous. Though if you don't have much exp drinking. (Most college kids don't. They have more exp with binge drinking than they do actual drinking. Which this story backs up.) Either way, glad the friend is okay and it's probably a good choice to not drink for everyone. Know it would be better for me, anyways.
@yeetmeinahole7566 sitting in the shower with people holding you is safer than puking drunkenly over a toilet bowl, every year people die or are severley concussed by accidentally heading butting the toilet bowl by vomiting violently in a drunken state.
I love your graphics. You have a great combination of photos and well applied animation. A lot of You Tubers use photos that don't sit accurately with their content and it distracts, but your combination keeps the integrity of your content and enhances it. Very effective!

I just watched a video of an adult black woman jumping into a DEEP swimming pool in order to „join the party“ - and she couldn’t swim either. They had to rescue her from a kiddies pool…
They don’t wanna be realistic when brutal accidents are featured in this video. This is made to be more of an educational video to show not to be stupid before you die, not to be a gore-fest.
@@red-trinity7390 Idk man, but we need a realistic version of 1000 ways to die this days. The gore is very helpful to prove the point of how not to die stupidly.
This whole video reminded me of a time when I was outside and this random dude came in front of my drive way with a bag of like 500 dollars and he saw me he took out a knife. He then started slowly walking towards me and this other guy came up with the stupidest voice ever and said “what you doing mate” then tackled him took his knife took the bag of money and started towards slowly and I shout “dad, there’s a guy with a knife coming towards me” and like 5 seconds later he comes out of the house, WITH A MACHETE and chased him down the street knocked him out and brought him back to my house and handed him in to the police. Yeah that’s my story of almost getting stabbed
I actually have one I'm a bit surprised hasn't come up. In 1997, a hunter injured a tiger and stole part of its kill... and left the tiger alive. The tiger hunted down his cabin and destroyed anything with his scent on it, and when he returned a few days later, the tiger mauled him and dragged him off. A Darwin Award winner if there ever was one😊
#2 surprises me. Normally it's pretty cut and dry someone being stupid, but that was a lot of preparation for his sea expedition to forget something as simple as a life jacket. The "riding on top of a moving vehicle" one also. Like anyone with even an ounce of self-preservation would narrowly dodge the first overpass and be like "oh hell, that almost took my head off. I should get flat and try to survive until the driver stops" But after the second or third one you've really just reached a point where it's obvious the attention matters more than your life. With the Jesus con artist I wonder if they just went ahead and reburied him afterwards in that spot. Like "this is awkward...but we've still got a perfectly good coffin and hole in the ground!"
Florida Man could be it's own series. It was bad enough that Florida was known for these types of episodes among those of us living in the US, now it's known internationally. 😂
I am from South Africa. I remember the story of the guy that drank the whole bottle of jagermeister in less than 2 minutes very well. To think that the R200 they offered him is less than the actual cost of a bottle of jagermeister, not to mention his life. The stupidity is beyond me
Love how you know it starts when the characters get that crazy whacked out smile. Kinda reminds me of Ren & Stimpy in a way. Gonna do that smile at work from now on 😆
The paddle board one got me. That was the stupidest idea...I mean he couldnt swim! And he wasnt wearing a life jacket. It was like he was asking for a disaster to happen 😂
As somebody who can't really swim himself, I concur the stupidity of that decision. I've even outright told people "no" before when they asked if I wanted to go out on a lake with them, or similar, because I can't swim, and the activity is therefore not worth the risk.
I also can't believe there are adults who don't know how to swim. And a lot of them live by the ocean. Blows my mind. Like, wouldn't you 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 to go to a local pool and at *least* try to figure it out? I'm imagining me sitting in a pool or lake etc watching people including teens around me swimming leisurely, and thinking "lame, I can't do that". And what if there comes a time you're caught in deep water, fall off a dock etc, and it would be more than handy? No shade, because for some reason we lose our natural ability to swim after infancy for some reason, but I'm glad I did learn. A couple times I almost drowned when I was young. Also, can't jump in a diving tank without the ability. Now I can swim across small lakes, and tread water or float on my back when I'm tired and need a break. I think it's an important skill that doesn't require much athletic ability.
@@Qui-9 As one of those adults, I can say that growing up, my answer to that question was no. I never learned how to swim simply because I didn't care to bother to learn how. I even have vague recollections of my mom taking my siblings to the local pool so they could learn how to swim, and telling her that I wasn't interested. But I'm also not stupid enough to ignore that fact when it comes to doing things near, and on water. Taking proper precautions, and even letting other people know that I can't swim so they don't assume I can if something does happen.
15:20 I almost managed that. As a firefighter.. After fighting a grass fire in a nature reserve, a small fire passed through a fence. Unable to reach it with my grass beater and having no water supply, I pulled out my fireman's hose to extinguish the flame on the other side of the fence. It was dark, so I never noticed this was an electric fence. Not strong enough to remove me from the gene pool.. but quite an electrifying experience for sure
Don't feel too bad. When I was twelve I tried to remove a spark plug from a lawnmower engine. While the engine was running. It was a shocking experience to say the least, and a good life lesson. Never try to repair an engine while it is running. 😂👍🏻🙂✌🏻
My favorite was on that show 1001 ways to die. The kids messing around with dropping bowling balls off a bridge. Which led to giant shards of high density plastic flying everywhere. Yeah, it didn't end well for the poor kid filming it...
I have a guess for the reason the man in Greece returned to the helicopter and ducked under the blades: The person he was calling was a fan of helicopters and wanted to know the model he flew on. He ducked under the blades to look at the rear of the helicopter because he assumed the model would be there like you would expect on a car.
Actually, caffeine dudes family won their lawsuit. They argued that his death was due to not having a pre measured scoop come with the caffeine powder which forcedhim to rely on guesswork, and honestly, that's actually makes sense.
I remember a kid from my 7th grade science class who would have gotten an honorable mention. During class one day this genius kid decided to stick a metal fork into an electric socket, and what do ya know the sparks went flying, literally. Then he tried to get the fork out with his bare fingers a few times before the teacher knocked the fork out with a text book. For some perfectly bizarre reason that kid was expelled from our science class...
I live close to Southampton and I remember that story very well, his wife actually tried to sue the coast guard for her husbands death. Surprise surprise she lost.
I hope the media named and shamed her. Expects other people to put their life at risk to save her stupid husband? Unreal. If she wants 24/7 lifeguards at every stretch of water in the UK, she should have been handed the bill for that as a fine for stupidity.
Obviously the answer is yes to a part 16 of this. Because my goodness. There are still a whole lot of people that need to get their darwin awards. This is the series that'll keep going on forever and I love it.
You should upload videos about this category more often for the hardcore fans of Darwin Awards because there is absolutely no shortage of dumb ways people have actually died.
I absolutely need more Darwin awards, this is one of my favorite series that you do, I can't get enough of it. Could you do one of these on a biweekly basis????
The moment you said dry ice, I was like... Wait, they used dry ice? That's not going to end well. Especially because gases cooled to liquid or solid state expand massively when they revert. I heard horror stories about liquid nitrogen canisters, the pressure of the evaporating gas could push every other gas out of a room. And the kinda scary bit, humans detect suffocation not by a lack of oxygen, but a high presence of carbon dioxide... So if high pressure nitrogen gas floods your lungs, you'd suffocate without realising anything was wrong till you were collapsing
1:00 actually frisbee golf is fun. But i wouldn't go into gator infested waters for a piece of plastic. Dumb. Like that guy who camped with grizzlies. Great stuff man
A video suggestion: The dumbest TikTok trends to ever exist, like “The Benadryl challenge” where people would take so much Benadryl that they started to hallucinate, which caused the death of a 15 year old girl, “The Blackout challenge” where peole literally choked themselves until they passed out, which caused the death of 7 kids. The “Pee your pants challenge” where people, as you guessed, peed their pants, and how can we forget “The devious lick trend” where kids would steal the most random shit from their schools.
You forgot to mention that the last guy there was decapitated by some poor girl's shoe, which also broke her foot near-permanently in the process and traumatized her to the point where she was reported to have attempted suicide several times because she claims the guy's ghost is haunting her, telling her that it's her fault that he died.
JESUS CHRIST!!! It was already bad enough, but now I learn the idiot also crippled someone and traumatized her to the point of suicide?! That's horrible...
@@thanetastic5608 unfortunately that’s just how things are, none of us exists in a vacuum, and idiots especially tend to drag other people down with them when they do idiotic things, be that family, friends, or in this case, completely random strangers. Simply because idiots don’t consider the consequences of their actions, not for themselves and especially not for those around them. It’s really quite sad that, as great it is that these idiots are taking themselves out of the gene pool, their actions tends to hurt others far more than it does themselves.
I did the same thing as the alcohol guy with gasoline when I was a kid. The flame went up the stream, but I flung the bottle into the fire before it exploded. Luckily not much was in it.
I'm from Ohio and I remember hearing about the Cedar Point one. Id like to point out that that particular roller coaster is surrounded by a tall fence and has warning signs all over the place. Just let the worker know and they'll try to get it when it's safe and maybe wear something with zip up or button up pockets next time.
It's even got a tall fence?! I'd assumed there wasn't one or it wasn't to tall... Jeez... what do we have to do to keep stupid people out?! Electric fences?! Dig a moat?!
I'm pretty sure there are barriers restricting access to _all_ the coaster tracks. I used to work at the Point a million years ago, and I can't think of a single ride which didn't have 'em even then, and with our country becoming even more litigious, they've probably been increased.
They already also said to him, that they will recover his phone (but I have seen in another video that it was his keys), when the park closes. But he didn't want to wait that long.
At my local amusement park there's a see-through case full of destroyed phones, lost keys, etc from people who brought them with them on the ride and lost them (which I don't know if it's specifically from that one roller coaster or just a collection of stuff from the various attractions in the park. It's meant to deter people from trying to keep their phones in their pockets because a lot of the time, it's not going to end well. (and I assume that if the phone is in working condition and someone calls the park to report a missing phone, then they can get it back. The locked box is mostly destroyed phones)
@@stinky-goober26 All the roller coasters and thrill type rides at the park have cubbies, and they cover the cubbies while you are on the ride with this door thing so they won’t be touched by random people (since they usually operate two roller coasters at a time by loading the one while the other is zooming along the track). And the employees will take the stuff to the cubbies for you too if you are already buckled in, so there’s no real excuse…
I almost hate to say this, but people would be AMAZED at the number of people who join any branch of the military who cannot SWIM (which is a required skill for all branches of the US services), especially the NAVY, which kind of goes hand in hand with deep water.
I guess I have common sense. I would have been completely surprised if there was no swimming instructions/testing. That was a long time ago but you didn't have to be able to swim a long way, mostly it was about how to stay still and just hang out in your life jacket.
We went to an amusement park & went on a roller coaster years ago, and my husband lost a really special hat that he had gotten for his work at the’96 Olympics. The hat landed in a restricted area because it was dangerous due to the tracks of the coaster going through the area. It was clearly marked & blocked off by fences & signs. That was pretty freaking obvious to all 3 of us as we took a look at the location of the hat & realized really quickly that risking our lives over a hat (or anything) was a dumbass idea. Hence, none of us ended up on this list. 🙄
Still... Maybe not the brightest idea to wear a hat with sentimental value on a theme park ride. He deserved to lose the hat, but glad he was at least smart enough to not lose his life as well.
@@gurvmlk The staff would simply stop the ride and retrieve the lost items themselves, so as much as the Darwin Award winner made poor decisions, so did the original commenter. Is it really that hard to walk to the ride operator and explain the situation?
As someone who has successfully done the Dragon's Breath with 151pf alcohol, I can tell ya, there are people who don't realize, pouring a stream of it on fire is NOT a good idea. A friend saw me do it, so he, being totally wasted, wanted to try. Luckily he was too drunk to get his lighter lit, because he was fountain spitting it onto the lighter, instead of spraying it into a mist with his lips. I had to take the lighter away and go "No, you're gonna set yourself on fire"
This is my favorite series you guys do, it just shows me that by the end of the day, I am not the dumbest person in the world. It makes me feel happy about myself.
The dry ice one the "influencer" was a scientist and her husband was 1 of the people killed. She got remarried 2 months later. People suspected it wasn't an accident but couldn't prove it. I mean, she was a scientist!! She should have known what would happen.
I was so excited to see a new part to this series because I am always amazed! And as a Floridian, I couldn’t help but lmao at the first one. I felt like Be Amazed was like, “We know you love this series so let’s start with your people in the not so bright state of Florida” lol. Every Floridian knows not to go into any body of fresh water. It’s the first thing you learn about Florida when you go there smh.
What get me are the dipsticks that keep boasting about how they swim in the rivers and lakes down here and don't worry about the gators. Yeah until one finally decides to have you for lunch. I stay well out of the water here unless it is in a pool I have already checked to make sure one hasn't climbed the fence to soak for a while.
Even DISNEY has signs up everywhere being like "BEWARE OF HIGHLY VENOMOUS SNAKES AND GATORS, SERIOUSLY". If even DISNEY has signs up - like ... come on. [And I don't mean that as an insult to Disney XD I just mean with how much work they do to keep the parks safe [or used to do] the fact that THEY even warn you should be all you need to know about how much it's NOT a joke]
@@Crow_Smith Yeah, no matter how hard a place tries gators and snakes will get in anyway. The snowbirds in my complex are always complaining about the gators. We had one 8 footer for over a year and a half and they were squawking about how dangerous he was. The thing never did more than float around between two connected lakes and would sun itself on the shore. Of course most of us knew not to get close and the water was clear so you could see the bottom quite a ways out but they got a trapper to remove it and shortly after we ended up with 3, two juveniles and another about 6 feet.
Ha! Part 16?! I’m anticipating Part 216!!!! Please, please keep these coming!!! Especially with the current narrator and his snarky sarcasm!!! Absolutely hilarious!! By the way, while asking my relatives to tell me some stories about my dad (who passed away last year), I found out that he was actually what The Darwin Awards would classify as an At-Risk Survivor!!! My step uncle told me one of the most important things he learned from Dad was never to pee on an electric fence! There are a lot of little rural towns around where I live where young guys run out of things to do. Especially back in the 1970s, when there was no internet or computers! So one day, my dad and my uncle (no doubt under the influence of alcohol) decided to have a peeing contest! In the interest of showing off, Dad made the decision to urinate on one of the town’s electric fences!!! Needless to say, he learned a very SHOCKING and painful lesson about why we don’t do that! The shock was so bad he thought he had lost his ability to reproduce on the spot, and of course, he got laughed at too. Obviously, myself and my sister are proof that he was indeed, still able to father children. Luckily for us, however, he did fail to pass down the STUPID genes! My sister and I have never had to be blatantly shown why it was not one of his best ideas!!! That could be why he left it out of his listing of his accomplishments in life and why I’d never heard about it until last week!!! LOL Thank goodness my uncle was around to let me know that my dad was the (un)lucky recipient of the rare At-Risk Survivor Darwin Award!!!!
17:34 at a beach with a group at 1 am, we had been putting our beer bottles into the flames to watch them crack into pretty designs. On of the guys had put his bottle in the fire with about a mouthful of beer still in it and screwed on the cap (I don't know why). Before we realized this, the bottle exploded, sending glass every direction. Most had scratches on arms and face. Amazing that no one got any in their eyes, but the guy who put that bottle in the fire had a large piece slice through the side of his neck. Lucky for him, it missed hitting anything vital. We never put bottles in the fire again.
Yes I'd love a part 16. I think the winner of all the contestants the received Darwin awards for stupidity would probably be the one that got ended by walking right onto the spinning helicopter rotor. The only way I could imagine someone doing that would be if they're trying for an express checkout.
I had a cousin who was in France as a tourist and thought that it would be a good idea to place a penny on some train tracks. He found out about 30 seconds after he had come back why everyone was yelling at him. Yes, it was a bullet train and those things go from one horizon to another in a couple of seconds. Luck was with him that day for sure.
@@A340XLR No, the penny would do nothing - the issue was him ON the tracks placing it there thinking it was a normal train track and he'd see it easily in time. In reality, it wasn't scheduled to stop at that station and went from nothing to gone past it and over the hills in about 3-4 seconds.

The last one I remember hearing about. My family would go to Ceder Point once a year. (it was a family tradition.) The raptor is one of my favorite roller coasters there. Also you are missing parts of the story… the raptor is a coaster where your feet dangle the man was struck not only by the bottom of the car but people’s feet as well. He was also decapitated by it…. Another thing about it is that the Raptor is a silent coaster so you can’t hear it coming. Honestly even if the guy looked to see if a car was coming he wouldn’t have had time to dodge it, most likely that is, do to how fast it moves. It’s a cool coaster to be around tho because it creates a sonic boom as it goes by. You don’t hear it coming you only hear the whoosh boom sound it makes and feel the massive wind gust of air it creates as it blows by. It’s stupid he didn’t wait for the part to close because at CP if you do drop something at the park they may allow you to go get it after the park closes and the ride is shut down for the day. Tho you do have to file a missing item report at the park police station. Also CP has very strict you lose it? It’s your problem rules. Which is why they constantly tell you there not responsible for lost or damaged items. Tho they will let you go into the restricted areas after the park closes to collect a dropped item so long as you have the lost item reported and a park officer with you
The guy who drowned off his paddleboard story happened near (ish) to where i live. He went out on a paddleboard without knowing how to swim on one of the worst beaches in the area due to it fast current and tide. His wife was also watching him and she complained to the local news that nobody was watching him or was there to save him on a beach that has no lifeguards anyway. He wouldnt have even be able to be saved since he was half a mile out. Me and my family still think about that story in amazement to the stupidity.
If you think that's bad, you need to see the one about the guy who gets bitten half by a great white shark in Australia while swimming and shark-infested waters next to a pier. It just so happens, someone was on the dock fishing and saw the guy get bite in half. People who watch the news report were upset at the fisherman for not helping this guy who ignored the no swimming sign. What exactly was this guy supposed to do cheer on the shark?
Everyone should learn to swim. It should be a mandatory part of any school program. And adults should definitely not go near water unless they learned how to swim.
I remember the person with the helicopter blade. It was a young lad who went back outside to apparently watch the rest of his family land in another helicopter. From what I remember he was talking to his mother. ☹️
There was a TV series called 1000 Ways to Die once. These situations are interesting but there are so many more unbelievable ways people have died too.
One case I have heard of consisted of some people trying to steal the iron pins of a bridge that was collapsing, under extreme heat. One of the thieves died when bridge parts crushed him.
18:34 As a retired Army medic, I highly recommend staying away from Jagerbombs. Jagerbomb one too many times, and you may very well end up on this video's list.
13:15 Last year on November 29, I went for my first ever helicopter ride. The flight was unforgettable and I had a lot of fun. But I did NOT do what this guy did. Before we could even board the chopper, the pilot gave us a safety briefing explaining the safety rules, and that included how to stay away from the rotor blades!
1:03 I used to think disc golf was dumb until I tried it. I became very competitive with it. One of my favorite sports to play. 19:31 I hear these drinking stories and I have no idea how I'm alive. Very grateful.
I think the person who died by getting struck in the head by the helicopter's tail rotor was completely oblivious and was to distracted by the phone call or maybe he didn't hear the rotors even though they were loud or or maybe he assumed that some kind of cartoon physics would happen and the rotors would just not hit him.
His death was _actually_ caught on camera and is out there on some sites. Let's just say that all the kings horses and all the kings men _could not_ put him together again.
Helicopter people have tail-rotor stories all afternoon. Rotors seem to have a hypnotic draw for some people. Physically tackling senior military officers on the flight line has been known to happen.
One of the dumbest ways to go that I know of was how a firefighter snapped his neck after running into a fence. In my country (Romania) there was a call about a fire that engulfed two houses. The owners were safe but the fire had a lot of flamable things to burn and was a threat to other nearby houses. When the firefighters arrived one of them decided to skip using the gate entrance and instead rush like an action hero through the wire-mesh fence that surrounded one of the properties, confident that it won't be an obstacle. The fence held against the burly guy's charge and pushed him back, but the firefighter wasn't about to give up on his plan so he rushed it again. This time, he ran harder and it almost gave him the result he wanted as he almost made it over the fence, but the wire-mesh only bent around the middle causing his legs to stop in the lower part of the fence while his top half went over with his head speeding toward the ground. The swing was so strong that his neck didn't survive on impact.
20:09 Fatal dose for most people. Alcoholics have wound up in the hospital with alcohol poisoning at that point and a little higher, but it’s not like they need their stomach pumped, they need meds for the withdrawal

So he either died from drowning from the excrement or from asphyxiation.

i mean if humans end it will which seems likely
MARKER!?!
Humanity will never be short of stupidity.
@@A-noober real
In college I had a friend who drank a full pint of Lord Calvert within about 10 minutes. He wretched and vomited violently. Others threw him in the shower and he vomited some more and passed out. His roommate put him to bed the next day he literally looked a greenish gray color. It took a couple of days for him to start feeling better but he never touched another drop of alcohol again! And neither have I
But why did they put him in the SHOWER? And not make him vomit into the toilet bowl instead?
Is Lord Calvert something like Everclear or something? I mean, ten minutes is damn fast for a pint but not something ridiculous. Though if you don't have much exp drinking. (Most college kids don't. They have more exp with binge drinking than they do actual drinking. Which this story backs up.) Either way, glad the friend is okay and it's probably a good choice to not drink for everyone. Know it would be better for me, anyways.
@@SuperMrHigginsnope. 80-proof Canadian whiskey
I've drank a pint in 15 minutes without even breaking a sweat
@yeetmeinahole7566 sitting in the shower with people holding you is safer than puking drunkenly over a toilet bowl, every year people die or are severley concussed by accidentally heading butting the toilet bowl by vomiting violently in a drunken state.
I love your graphics. You have a great combination of photos and well applied animation. A lot of You Tubers use photos that don't sit accurately with their content and it distracts, but your combination keeps the integrity of your content and enhances it. Very effective!
Let’s be honest Be Amazed will be on part 104 and people will still never stop getting the Darwin Award 😂

At 15 episodes of "Embarrassingly Dumb Ways People Died", you are the spiritual successor or "1000 Ways to Die". And I love this channel for it.
How do u go paddle hoarding knowing u can’t swim is mind blowing 😂🤣😂
I just watched a video of an adult black woman jumping into a DEEP swimming pool in order to „join the party“ - and she couldn’t swim either. They had to rescue her from a kiddies pool…
In his mind he wasn't swimming therefore he didn't need to know
I can explain all sorts of stupid
@@thespudlord686 thank u 👍😂
love how the illustrations make their brutal death more funny than brutal
Pretty sure that's the whole point.
They don’t wanna be realistic when brutal accidents are featured in this video. This is made to be more of an educational video to show not to be stupid before you die, not to be a gore-fest.
@@red-trinity7390 Idk man, but we need a realistic version of 1000 ways to die this days. The gore is very helpful to prove the point of how not to die stupidly.
This whole video reminded me of a time when I was outside and this random dude came in front of my drive way with a bag of like 500 dollars and he saw me he took out a knife. He then started slowly walking towards me and this other guy came up with the stupidest voice ever and said “what you doing mate” then tackled him took his knife took the bag of money and started towards slowly and I shout “dad, there’s a guy with a knife coming towards me” and like 5 seconds later he comes out of the house, WITH A MACHETE and chased him down the street knocked him out and brought him back to my house and handed him in to the police. Yeah that’s my story of almost getting stabbed
I actually have one I'm a bit surprised hasn't come up.
In 1997, a hunter injured a tiger and stole part of its kill... and left the tiger alive. The tiger hunted down his cabin and destroyed anything with his scent on it, and when he returned a few days later, the tiger mauled him and dragged him off. A Darwin Award winner if there ever was one😊
Chad 🐯 o7
lol never steal a big kitty's meal. 🙀🙀🙀
That happened in Russia, right?
I can see not wanting to kill a tiger, but fucking it up AND stealing some it's kill just seems to be asking for retribution.

I bet if GrayStillPlays saw this he would probably be like: Yeah! Florida mannnnnnnn! Funk YAY!!!!!🎉🎉🎉😆👨🏻🦱
And then find games based on these deaths lol
#2 surprises me. Normally it's pretty cut and dry someone being stupid, but that was a lot of preparation for his sea expedition to forget something as simple as a life jacket.
The "riding on top of a moving vehicle" one also. Like anyone with even an ounce of self-preservation would narrowly dodge the first overpass and be like "oh hell, that almost took my head off. I should get flat and try to survive until the driver stops" But after the second or third one you've really just reached a point where it's obvious the attention matters more than your life.
With the Jesus con artist I wonder if they just went ahead and reburied him afterwards in that spot. Like "this is awkward...but we've still got a perfectly good coffin and hole in the ground!"
I'm a good swimmer and I would have a life jacket on😅
No episode feels complete without the presence of Florida man 💀
Or some story from Russia
Florida Man could be it's own series. It was bad enough that Florida was known for these types of episodes among those of us living in the US, now it's known internationally. 😂
Shut
Be amazed should do a Darwin awards Florida man edition 😂

I am from South Africa. I remember the story of the guy that drank the whole bottle of jagermeister in less than 2 minutes very well. To think that the R200 they offered him is less than the actual cost of a bottle of jagermeister, not to mention his life. The stupidity is beyond me

@sirgame4595 no its like everyone from africa is black for some reason?plus im talking about the video
We all know that people will not stop being stupid any time soon, so this series will never end XD
People are stupid forever and always all you can. Do is throw your head back and laugh 😂
Love how you know it starts when the characters get that crazy whacked out smile. Kinda reminds me of Ren & Stimpy in a way. Gonna do that smile at work from now on 😆
When Ren has the happy helmet on he has that psychotic crooked smile.
The paddle board one got me. That was the stupidest idea...I mean he couldnt swim! And he wasnt wearing a life jacket. It was like he was asking for a disaster to happen 😂
As somebody who can't really swim himself, I concur the stupidity of that decision. I've even outright told people "no" before when they asked if I wanted to go out on a lake with them, or similar, because I can't swim, and the activity is therefore not worth the risk.
It literally takes 1 practice session to learn to swim. He should have invested in that first. 😂
Don’t forget that he opted to pull that goofy stunt where no kind of rescue crews were nearby. Dude was begging to die.
I also can't believe there are adults who don't know how to swim. And a lot of them live by the ocean. Blows my mind. Like, wouldn't you 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 to go to a local pool and at *least* try to figure it out? I'm imagining me sitting in a pool or lake etc watching people including teens around me swimming leisurely, and thinking "lame, I can't do that". And what if there comes a time you're caught in deep water, fall off a dock etc, and it would be more than handy?
No shade, because for some reason we lose our natural ability to swim after infancy for some reason, but I'm glad I did learn. A couple times I almost drowned when I was young. Also, can't jump in a diving tank without the ability. Now I can swim across small lakes, and tread water or float on my back when I'm tired and need a break. I think it's an important skill that doesn't require much athletic ability.
@@Qui-9 As one of those adults, I can say that growing up, my answer to that question was no. I never learned how to swim simply because I didn't care to bother to learn how. I even have vague recollections of my mom taking my siblings to the local pool so they could learn how to swim, and telling her that I wasn't interested. But I'm also not stupid enough to ignore that fact when it comes to doing things near, and on water. Taking proper precautions, and even letting other people know that I can't swim so they don't assume I can if something does happen.
15:20 I almost managed that. As a firefighter.. After fighting a grass fire in a nature reserve, a small fire passed through a fence. Unable to reach it with my grass beater and having no water supply, I pulled out my fireman's hose to extinguish the flame on the other side of the fence. It was dark, so I never noticed this was an electric fence. Not strong enough to remove me from the gene pool.. but quite an electrifying experience for sure
At least you didn't get introduced to the Darwin Awards ;)
@@gavins3492 he did get introduced to one, he just didn't win one
Don't feel too bad. When I was twelve I tried to remove a spark plug from a lawnmower engine. While the engine was running. It was a shocking experience to say the least, and a good life lesson. Never try to repair an engine while it is running. 😂👍🏻🙂✌🏻
The fact that this has 15 parts just shows how dumb we actually are
I know just how

@@SanveerRamterathwe're having an overdose on idiots
My favorite was on that show 1001 ways to die. The kids messing around with dropping bowling balls off a bridge. Which led to giant shards of high density plastic flying everywhere. Yeah, it didn't end well for the poor kid filming it...
and we're just getting started! 😅
I have a guess for the reason the man in Greece returned to the helicopter and ducked under the blades: The person he was calling was a fan of helicopters and wanted to know the model he flew on. He ducked under the blades to look at the rear of the helicopter because he assumed the model would be there like you would expect on a car.
he could have literally asked the pilot/ ground crew staff what model it was but then again who knows what he was thinking
@@kai7526

Along with Gordon Ramsay's facepalm
Wow that one was B R U T A L
How about doing a chapter on the families who tried to sue, blaming, not the actions of the Darwin award winners, but everyone else?
Actually, caffeine dudes family won their lawsuit. They argued that his death was due to not having a pre measured scoop come with the caffeine powder which forcedhim to rely on guesswork, and honestly, that's actually makes sense.
I remember a kid from my 7th grade science class who would have gotten an honorable mention. During class one day this genius kid decided to stick a metal fork into an electric socket, and what do ya know the sparks went flying, literally. Then he tried to get the fork out with his bare fingers a few times before the teacher knocked the fork out with a text book. For some perfectly bizarre reason that kid was expelled from our science class...
Either I went to the same school as you or this is common. My Chem teacher told a story about something similar happening.
Common sense is not so common
Sounds like the kid actually needed a lot more science education.
Well that's just silly, he should have known that using his teeth to remove the fork would have yielded better results...
this series is going to never end because of people’s stupidity 😂

I live close to Southampton and I remember that story very well, his wife actually tried to sue the coast guard for her husbands death. Surprise surprise she lost.

2:30 Sounds like a logical way to go about things. That is until you learn that this guy couldn't swim.
That killed me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Obviously the answer is yes to a part 16 of this. Because my goodness. There are still a whole lot of people that need to get their darwin awards. This is the series that'll keep going on forever and I love it.
You should upload videos about this category more often for the hardcore fans of Darwin Awards because there is absolutely no shortage of dumb ways people have actually died.
My favourite one is "Tiktok trouble
I spilled my glass of water when he said "Darwin award achievement check * hit by an overpass *" 😂😂💀💀
I absolutely need more Darwin awards, this is one of my favorite series that you do, I can't get enough of it. Could you do one of these on a biweekly basis????
Neither can I!😂😂😂
The moment you said dry ice, I was like... Wait, they used dry ice? That's not going to end well. Especially because gases cooled to liquid or solid state expand massively when they revert. I heard horror stories about liquid nitrogen canisters, the pressure of the evaporating gas could push every other gas out of a room. And the kinda scary bit, humans detect suffocation not by a lack of oxygen, but a high presence of carbon dioxide... So if high pressure nitrogen gas floods your lungs, you'd suffocate without realising anything was wrong till you were collapsing
Dry ice (crystalized carbon dioxide) skips the "liquid" state and turns straight into gas. That process is called "sublimation"
It's why scientists never take liquid nitrogen onto elevators. The oxygen could be displaced without them noticing it until it is too late.
I read the what if two book so I knew what would happen
the only way ya could tell if a high nitrogen content was in air is if a fire goes out on its own even with more then enough feul
You mentioning the word horror with liquid nitrogen seriously brought me back to space jason voorhees
1:00 actually frisbee golf is fun. But i wouldn't go into gator infested waters for a piece of plastic. Dumb. Like that guy who camped with grizzlies. Great stuff man
A video suggestion:
The dumbest TikTok trends to ever exist, like “The Benadryl challenge” where people would take so much Benadryl that they started to hallucinate, which caused the death of a 15 year old girl, “The Blackout challenge” where peole literally choked themselves until they passed out, which caused the death of 7 kids. The “Pee your pants challenge” where people, as you guessed, peed their pants, and how can we forget “The devious lick trend” where kids would steal the most random shit from their schools.
Yup how can we forget those
You forgot to mention that the last guy there was decapitated by some poor girl's shoe, which also broke her foot near-permanently in the process and traumatized her to the point where she was reported to have attempted suicide several times because she claims the guy's ghost is haunting her, telling her that it's her fault that he died.
I was just wondering what the experience of those people would be like. God, that would have been terrible to witness.
JESUS CHRIST!!! It was already bad enough, but now I learn the idiot also crippled someone and traumatized her to the point of suicide?! That's horrible...
@@thanetastic5608 unfortunately that’s just how things are, none of us exists in a vacuum, and idiots especially tend to drag other people down with them when they do idiotic things, be that family, friends, or in this case, completely random strangers. Simply because idiots don’t consider the consequences of their actions, not for themselves and especially not for those around them. It’s really quite sad that, as great it is that these idiots are taking themselves out of the gene pool, their actions tends to hurt others far more than it does themselves.
Please DO NOT use The Lord’s name in vain.

I'm from Ohio and I remember hearing about the Cedar Point one. Id like to point out that that particular roller coaster is surrounded by a tall fence and has warning signs all over the place. Just let the worker know and they'll try to get it when it's safe and maybe wear something with zip up or button up pockets next time.
It's even got a tall fence?! I'd assumed there wasn't one or it wasn't to tall...
Jeez... what do we have to do to keep stupid people out?! Electric fences?! Dig a moat?!
@@mariobenedicto3582 hon, there is no power on earth that can keep out stupid.
I remember that story too, the moron was decapitated being hit by a girl's leg which shattered into 20 pieces. Poor Girl, I hope she recovered well!
I'm pretty sure there are barriers restricting access to _all_ the coaster tracks. I used to work at the Point a million years ago, and I can't think of a single ride which didn't have 'em even then, and with our country becoming even more litigious, they've probably been increased.
They already also said to him, that they will recover his phone (but I have seen in another video that it was his keys), when the park closes. But he didn't want to wait that long.
Fun fact: shocks travel throughout your nerves not your bones
At my local amusement park there's a see-through case full of destroyed phones, lost keys, etc from people who brought them with them on the ride and lost them (which I don't know if it's specifically from that one roller coaster or just a collection of stuff from the various attractions in the park. It's meant to deter people from trying to keep their phones in their pockets because a lot of the time, it's not going to end well. (and I assume that if the phone is in working condition and someone calls the park to report a missing phone, then they can get it back. The locked box is mostly destroyed phones)
Dude, can’t you just tell someone to hold your stuff or something? Even if you’re alone, don’t like 90% of amusement parks have lockers?
@@stinky-goober26 All the roller coasters and thrill type rides at the park have cubbies, and they cover the cubbies while you are on the ride with this door thing so they won’t be touched by random people (since they usually operate two roller coasters at a time by loading the one while the other is zooming along the track). And the employees will take the stuff to the cubbies for you too if you are already buckled in, so there’s no real excuse…
This is why selfie sticks are prohibited at Disneyland
I almost hate to say this, but people would be AMAZED at the number of people who join any branch of the military who cannot SWIM (which is a required skill for all branches of the US services), especially the NAVY, which kind of goes hand in hand with deep water.
Wow! I thought that would’ve been common sense, but I don’t put nothing past anyone these days 🤦🏻♀️
My mom us army doesn’t know how to swim and I taught a marine how to swim but he was a marine without knowing.
I guess I have common sense. I would have been completely surprised if there was no swimming instructions/testing.
That was a long time ago but you didn't have to be able to swim a long way, mostly it was about how to stay still and just hang out in your life jacket.

I love the Darwin Awards series not being forgotten
We went to an amusement park & went on a roller coaster years ago, and my husband lost a really special hat that he had gotten for his work at the’96 Olympics. The hat landed in a restricted area because it was dangerous due to the tracks of the coaster going through the area. It was clearly marked & blocked off by fences & signs. That was pretty freaking obvious to all 3 of us as we took a look at the location of the hat & realized really quickly that risking our lives over a hat (or anything) was a dumbass idea. Hence, none of us ended up on this list. 🙄
They had us in the first half, not gonna lie
Still... Maybe not the brightest idea to wear a hat with sentimental value on a theme park ride. He deserved to lose the hat, but glad he was at least smart enough to not lose his life as well.
At which point, you ask a staff member if there's anything that can be done to retrieve the lost item.
Glad you didn't get the award
@@gurvmlk The staff would simply stop the ride and retrieve the lost items themselves, so as much as the Darwin Award winner made poor decisions, so did the original commenter. Is it really that hard to walk to the ride operator and explain the situation?
As someone who has successfully done the Dragon's Breath with 151pf alcohol, I can tell ya, there are people who don't realize, pouring a stream of it on fire is NOT a good idea.
A friend saw me do it, so he, being totally wasted, wanted to try.
Luckily he was too drunk to get his lighter lit, because he was fountain spitting it onto the lighter, instead of spraying it into a mist with his lips.
I had to take the lighter away and go "No, you're gonna set yourself on fire"

I hate waiting for a new video from this series, but it's always more than worth it.
This is my favorite series you guys do, it just shows me that by the end of the day, I am not the dumbest person in the world. It makes me feel happy about myself.
The dry ice one the "influencer" was a scientist and her husband was 1 of the people killed. She got remarried 2 months later. People suspected it wasn't an accident but couldn't prove it. I mean, she was a scientist!! She should have known what would happen.
I was so excited to see a new part to this series because I am always amazed! And as a Floridian, I couldn’t help but lmao at the first one. I felt like Be Amazed was like, “We know you love this series so let’s start with your people in the not so bright state of Florida” lol. Every Floridian knows not to go into any body of fresh water. It’s the first thing you learn about Florida when you go there smh.
What get me are the dipsticks that keep boasting about how they swim in the rivers and lakes down here and don't worry about the gators. Yeah until one finally decides to have you for lunch. I stay well out of the water here unless it is in a pool I have already checked to make sure one hasn't climbed the fence to soak for a while.
Even DISNEY has signs up everywhere being like "BEWARE OF HIGHLY VENOMOUS SNAKES AND GATORS, SERIOUSLY".
If even DISNEY has signs up - like ... come on. [And I don't mean that as an insult to Disney XD I just mean with how much work they do to keep the parks safe [or used to do] the fact that THEY even warn you should be all you need to know about how much it's NOT a joke]
@@Crow_Smith Yeah, no matter how hard a place tries gators and snakes will get in anyway. The snowbirds in my complex are always complaining about the gators. We had one 8 footer for over a year and a half and they were squawking about how dangerous he was. The thing never did more than float around between two connected lakes and would sun itself on the shore. Of course most of us knew not to get close and the water was clear so you could see the bottom quite a ways out but they got a trapper to remove it and shortly after we ended up with 3, two juveniles and another about 6 feet.
I don't know what part of Florida you live in, but that doesn't happen down here in South Florida.

Ha! Part 16?! I’m anticipating Part 216!!!! Please, please keep these coming!!! Especially with the current narrator and his snarky sarcasm!!! Absolutely hilarious!!
By the way, while asking my relatives to tell me some stories about my dad (who passed away last year), I found out that he was actually what The Darwin Awards would classify as an At-Risk Survivor!!!
My step uncle told me one of the most important things he learned from Dad was never to pee on an electric fence! There are a lot of little rural towns around where I live where young guys run out of things to do. Especially back in the 1970s, when there was no internet or computers! So one day, my dad and my uncle (no doubt under the influence of alcohol) decided to have a peeing contest! In the interest of showing off, Dad made the decision to urinate on one of the town’s electric fences!!! Needless to say, he learned a very SHOCKING and painful lesson about why we don’t do that! The shock was so bad he thought he had lost his ability to reproduce on the spot, and of course, he got laughed at too.
Obviously, myself and my sister are proof that he was indeed, still able to father children. Luckily for us, however, he did fail to pass down the STUPID genes! My sister and I have never had to be blatantly shown why it was not one of his best ideas!!!
That could be why he left it out of his listing of his accomplishments in life and why I’d never heard about it until last week!!! LOL
Thank goodness my uncle was around to let me know that my dad was the (un)lucky recipient of the rare At-Risk Survivor Darwin Award!!!!
i am anticipating part 2016
Maybe the shock jolted his seed "turbocharging" you and your sister allowing you win the race while deleting the ones that carried the idiot gene?
19:54 I can do a full bottle in one day, but don’t think i could do it in an hour.
17:34 at a beach with a group at 1 am, we had been putting our beer bottles into the flames to watch them crack into pretty designs. On of the guys had put his bottle in the fire with about a mouthful of beer still in it and screwed on the cap (I don't know why). Before we realized this, the bottle exploded, sending glass every direction. Most had scratches on arms and face. Amazing that no one got any in their eyes, but the guy who put that bottle in the fire had a large piece slice through the side of his neck. Lucky for him, it missed hitting anything vital.
We never put bottles in the fire again.
Yes I'd love a part 16. I think the winner of all the contestants the received Darwin awards for stupidity would probably be the one that got ended by walking right onto the spinning helicopter rotor. The only way I could imagine someone doing that would be if they're trying for an express checkout.
I had a cousin who was in France as a tourist and thought that it would be a good idea to place a penny on some train tracks. He found out about 30 seconds after he had come back why everyone was yelling at him. Yes, it was a bullet train and those things go from one horizon to another in a couple of seconds. Luck was with him that day for sure.
@@plektosgamingDid he almost derail a bullet train?
@@A340XLR No, the penny would do nothing - the issue was him ON the tracks placing it there thinking it was a normal train track and he'd see it easily in time. In reality, it wasn't scheduled to stop at that station and went from nothing to gone past it and over the hills in about 3-4 seconds.

The last one I remember hearing about. My family would go to Ceder Point once a year. (it was a family tradition.) The raptor is one of my favorite roller coasters there. Also you are missing parts of the story… the raptor is a coaster where your feet dangle the man was struck not only by the bottom of the car but people’s feet as well. He was also decapitated by it…. Another thing about it is that the Raptor is a silent coaster so you can’t hear it coming. Honestly even if the guy looked to see if a car was coming he wouldn’t have had time to dodge it, most likely that is, do to how fast it moves. It’s a cool coaster to be around tho because it creates a sonic boom as it goes by. You don’t hear it coming you only hear the whoosh boom sound it makes and feel the massive wind gust of air it creates as it blows by. It’s stupid he didn’t wait for the part to close because at CP if you do drop something at the park they may allow you to go get it after the park closes and the ride is shut down for the day. Tho you do have to file a missing item report at the park police station. Also CP has very strict you lose it? It’s your problem rules. Which is why they constantly tell you there not responsible for lost or damaged items. Tho they will let you go into the restricted areas after the park closes to collect a dropped item so long as you have the lost item reported and a park officer with you
Thanks for introducing me to 'macerated', from the bottle of Jagermeister.

The guy who drowned off his paddleboard story happened near (ish) to where i live. He went out on a paddleboard without knowing how to swim on one of the worst beaches in the area due to it fast current and tide. His wife was also watching him and she complained to the local news that nobody was watching him or was there to save him on a beach that has no lifeguards anyway. He wouldnt have even be able to be saved since he was half a mile out. Me and my family still think about that story in amazement to the stupidity.
Yeah once again when somebody gets killed doing something stupid let’s blame it on other people
It seems like both of them had room temperature IQ.
If you think that's bad, you need to see the one about the guy who gets bitten half by a great white shark in Australia while swimming and shark-infested waters next to a pier. It just so happens, someone was on the dock fishing and saw the guy get bite in half. People who watch the news report were upset at the fisherman for not helping this guy who ignored the no swimming sign. What exactly was this guy supposed to do cheer on the shark?
The wife's insurance plan went according to plan
Everyone should learn to swim.
It should be a mandatory part of any school program.
And adults should definitely not go near water unless they learned how to swim.
I remember the person with the helicopter blade. It was a young lad who went back outside to apparently watch the rest of his family land in another helicopter. From what I remember he was talking to his mother. ☹️
As long as humanity exists, there will always be Darwin Award winners
There was a TV series called 1000 Ways to Die once.
These situations are interesting but there are so many more unbelievable ways people have died too.
I SO REMEMBER THAT SHOW!!! IT WAS ON SPIKE TV! LOVED IT!!!!
Yeah. I especially liked the bad puns too.
One case I have heard of consisted of some people trying to steal the iron pins of a bridge that was collapsing, under extreme heat. One of the thieves died when bridge parts crushed him.
Yes plz do part 16 it going to be awesome 😊 plz and thank u 👆 👍
14:17 I’ve seen the video of the incident- his head turned into pink mist almost instantly.
DAMN
Holy jeez
You mean red dark mist
WHAT
@@OmniSync you know what I mean
@ 8:40 guy killed by train I remember that from few years ago. He graduated from the Prometheus School of Running Away.
Wasn’t that guy’s name Greg Pitt.

I just love the fact that you sound like a narrator from a cartoon like Yogi Bear
18:34 As a retired Army medic, I highly recommend staying away from Jagerbombs. Jagerbomb one too many times, and you may very well end up on this video's list.
both alcohol and caffeine speed up the heart rate. It's a double-whammy!
Good point.@@mchenrynick
13:15 Last year on November 29, I went for my first ever helicopter ride. The flight was unforgettable and I had a lot of fun. But I did NOT do what this guy did. Before we could even board the chopper, the pilot gave us a safety briefing explaining the safety rules, and that included how to stay away from the rotor blades!
1:03 I used to think disc golf was dumb until I tried it. I became very competitive with it. One of my favorite sports to play.
19:31 I hear these drinking stories and I have no idea how I'm alive. Very grateful.
I think the person who died by getting struck in the head by the helicopter's tail rotor was completely oblivious and was to distracted by the phone call or maybe he didn't hear the rotors even though they were loud or or maybe he assumed that some kind of cartoon physics would happen and the rotors would just not hit him.
His death was _actually_ caught on camera and is out there on some sites.
Let's just say that all the kings horses and all the kings men _could not_ put him together again.
Helicopter people have tail-rotor stories all afternoon. Rotors seem to have a hypnotic draw for some people. Physically tackling senior military officers on the flight line has been known to happen.
One of the dumbest ways to go that I know of was how a firefighter snapped his neck after running into a fence.
In my country (Romania) there was a call about a fire that engulfed two houses. The owners were safe but the fire had a lot of flamable things to burn and was a threat to other nearby houses. When the firefighters arrived one of them decided to skip using the gate entrance and instead rush like an action hero through the wire-mesh fence that surrounded one of the properties, confident that it won't be an obstacle. The fence held against the burly guy's charge and pushed him back, but the firefighter wasn't about to give up on his plan so he rushed it again. This time, he ran harder and it almost gave him the result he wanted as he almost made it over the fence, but the wire-mesh only bent around the middle causing his legs to stop in the lower part of the fence while his top half went over with his head speeding toward the ground. The swing was so strong that his neck didn't survive on impact.
20:09 Fatal dose for most people. Alcoholics have wound up in the hospital with alcohol poisoning at that point and a little higher, but it’s not like they need their stomach pumped, they need meds for the withdrawal
This series is going to be eternal 🤣. Supply of Darwin Awards contestants is plenty
These always reminds me of the movie Idiocracy (which as these Darwin awards prove has become a reality) and make me feel like a rocket scientist. Keep these coming please!
There was the guy who was trying to steal copper from an electrical box at an abandoned mall. They found him on fire, still holding a pair of bolt cutters.
Ain’t no way this series is gonna end lol
This is one of the best series BE AMAZED has ever done
"This little fatty wants his burger NOW!!!" 😅😅😅😂😂😂
Oh this made my night! Human stupidity at its best, always great entertainment 😊 Loved the animations you've done but this time it was the smack sounds that really made me laugh out loud 😮 Any guilt at the demise of some poor divvy soon went out of the window 😮😂 Awesome video as ever Be Amazed, bring on Part 16 ❤❤❤
We DEFINITELY need a part 16. Change my mind, I’m waiting.
Omg yes!!!!
Do it! Just do it!
It actually happened just a few days ago, LOL
@@autismbros.official7582it did?????? YAYYYY
Do the story of the Chinese kid who leaped to his demise thinking he will be transported to world of warcraft, because he spends days on days of gaming it.
As soon as I read it's the Darwin award, I instantly click it and watch😂
