Dumb Ways to Die

Every now and then there are new nominees for the Darwin Awards - people who remove themselves from the gene pool in very stupid ways. Here's today's examples:

There's one less mullet in Florida after this incident:

VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. -- A 42-year-old man was hit and killed on Interstate 4 Friday after he was kicked out of his friend's car for exposing his genitals to passing motorists and told to find his own way home, police told Local 6 News.
A passing motorist found the body of Kevin Steedly early Friday on the side of Interstate 4 near exit 107 at Dirksen in Volusia County.

And to prove that dumb knows no borders, from our neighbors to the north:
(CP) - A 17-year-old Newfoundland girl is believed to have died from toxic shock syndrome - and the infection that killed her may have resulted from a nipple piercing, the province's chief medical examiner says.

Feel free to send me other examples that come across.
