Darwin Award

[Harald aus LEV]

Hallo zusammen,
es gibt doch diesen Darwin Award, der jährlich auflistet, wie Leute auf besonders skurile Art ums Leben kommen.
Ist Euch bekannt, ob da auch Fischer bei sind?
So habe ich ´mal davon gehört, daß 2 Angler mit einem 240 V Stromkabel(oder warens 380 Volt ?) Elektrofischen wollten, dabei aber selbst ins Wasser gerieten.

@harry: du meinst wohl das hier:

Gone Fishin'
1999 Darwin Award Nominee
Confirmed True by Darwin
(25 May 1999, Ukraine) A fisherman in Kiev electrocuted himself while fishing in the river Tereblya. The 43-year-old man connected cables to the main power supply of his home, and trailed the end into the river. The electric shock killed the fish, which floated belly-up to the top of the water. The man waded in to collect his catch, neglecting to remove the live wire, and tragically suffered the same fate as the fish.

In an ironic twist, the man was fishing for a mourning meal to commemorate the first anniversary of his mother-in-law's death.

In a related story, on January 9 the China Post reported that a 23-year-old Pingtung man died after eating fish he poisoned in a nearby ditch. Three days of diarrhea and vomiting led to his demise after he ate fish he caught by pouring toxic chemicals in the water at the suggestion of friends.

Aber wie mein Vorredner schon sagte. Schau dir die Seite mal an und gib in der Suchfunkiton "fishing" ein. Da gibts einiges.
