Stupidity reaches a new zenith

Every time I think I’ve seen the best of the worst, a new idiot comes along and reinvents idiocy, kicking it up a notch.

Today’s entry involves a gentleman who thought fireworks should be held between one’s butt cheeks. :eek: Sorry kids, but I don’t want things filled with gunpowder near my tender bits. :smack:

Here is the story of an ill fated afternoon down under. Talk about a bummer. :rolleyes:

Young people? This idiot was 26.

You beat me to it Homebrew.

I knew Jackass was going to be mentioned in the first few sentences.

Like people didn’t do dumb shit before Jackass? :rolleyes:

Fuck this clown, he got what one would expect from shoving these things up their ass.

I’m looking forward too seeing him featured in my Darwin Awards calendar for next year. Even if he were still functional, I’m guessing that the colostomy bag acts a defacto prophylactic right about the time heavy petting yields to foreplay.

I have nothing to add to this except to say hi to danceswithcats, one of the truly cool dopers. Where ya been, man? Coming to the Haloween bash?

Oh, and to call the subject of this rant a jackass. As a woman, I’m sorta grateful to him for blowing his naughty bits up so no sister will ever have to deal with them (or brother, if that was his persuasion).

Well, the guy didn’t imitate a stunt from Jackass - he fell down while imitating a stunt from Jackass, big difference. Anybody can fall down, just an accident, plain and simple.

We owe him much sympathy. What if you fell down?

If I did, you can be relatively certain that I won’t have a firecracker in my ass at the time.

That’s a gem of a sentence.:smiley:

Wouldn’t be falling down with a firecracker up my ass. No way. Not happ’nin’.

That sounds like a wager to me :wink:

Well, I guess you got a point there.

[nitpick]Technically, this should be a nadir (low point) of stupidity. The zenith (high point) of stupidity would be someone with roughly average intelligence.[/nitpick]

I’ll bet this guy had a blast.

Well, I been thinking about you guys who wouldn’t fall down with a firecracker up your ass and I guess my question is;

does that mean that when you got a firecracker up your ass you are like really careful?

Actually, zenith can be used in this context. For example, what movie gets the top spot in a list of the worst movies of all time? The absolute worst, of course. So the absolute worst becomes the zenith, due to the nature of the listing.

Reminds me of a proctologist’s office cartoon I saw in Playboy once.

I’m trying not to sound sexist here, but why is it when I read of stories of people doing stupid stunts like this, I’ve never read of it being a woman? Is there a male proclivity for stupid stunts?

(If someone can provide a cite showing that females actually do an equal amount of this, I will gladly retract my question.)

Well, I don’t know if it’s an “equal amount,” but there was that girl earlier this year who tried to slide down a bannister at a museum, while on a school trip, and came to grief.

I SAID BUD LIGHT!!

Ah. Maybe I should change it to stupid stunts involving fire and/or lighters, then?
