YMMV / Darwin Awards

Go To

  • Crosses the Line Twice: If it were a simple death, then these people would be tragedies. Because they are complicated and/or stupid deaths, they are black comedies.
  • Signature Scene: The famous JATO story (about a guy who supposedly strapped a jet engine to his car, with predictable results), which is without a doubt the most famous Darwin Award of all time. Even after it was proven to be an urban myth, it's still beloved and the JATO guy is considered by some to be an unofficial mascot for the Awards.
