The Darwin Awards: Evolution in Action by Wendy Northcutt

1.0

I don't usually mind these books. It's always a little on the edge of okay to make fun of people who did dumb things, but these are stories of people who actually died in horrible ways. I don't usually go for the "that's somebody's sister/brother/father etc", because sometimes teasing makes people avoid doing dumb things. But this book was downright disrespectful and mean to people who died painful deaths, some of them well-intentioned. It isn't just about guys poking a bear.
I think they missed the mark here and it came off really jerky.
