Darwin loves

Foam mattresses

A British father of two who had been out drinking with friends was killed early Saturday while sledding down a mountainside in the Italian Alps on a rubber foam mattress, the London Daily Mail reported.
David Monk, 46, of Ware, Herfordshire, crashed into a pole used to support a safety net and died from serious head and chest injuries, the Mail reported.
Two of the three friends he was with were also badly wounded.



Ol Chuck almost pulled a hat trick, but the other two lived...so far

They lived because they had the late Mr. Monk's squishy body to cushion (ahem) the impact. That's my guess.

I pulled a hat trick once. With darts. Purely by accident, of course. Nobody died... but it wasn't for lack of opportunity, I assure you.

Me + beer + darts = 15m casualty radius.
