SynopsisThe human race's most "devastatingly" popular humor series returns... With five previous books and more than 1.5 million copies sold, The Darwin Awards is a pop culture phenomenon. Honoring those who improve the species by accidentally removing themselves from it, The Darwin Awards countdown (to human extinction) is well under way-and we won't exit this mortal coil without one last laugh. In The Darwin Awards Countdown to Extinction , readers will find all-new stories chronicling humans who step onto the lowest rung on the evolutionary ladder, including: ? Nine no's with power tools ? Eight ways to incinerate yourself ? Seven safety warnings you should not ignore ? Six romance tips for "safe" sex... Featuring illustrations and brilliant science-of-evolution essays, this latest volume of The Darwin Awards enumerates just how uncommon common sense still is.
I love the Darwin awards. It’s sad when anyone dies but this puts a humorous twist on the stupidity of some people’s death and how they so could have been prevented had they just used common sense.
