Re: Darwin Awards


I know of two that may qualify sometime in the future if the occupations of the said remain in cable.
SLC UT.
Rookie installer and Darwin supervisor attempting to complete a install during a thunderstorm. Darwin informs rookie to remove a foot of insulation from the coax so he can wrap the center conductor around the wet steel hammer and launch it above the soaking wet tree . 50 feet was pulled from the reel which rested on a soaking wet steel caddy.
countdown began.
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,
We have ignition!
As the hammer cleared the tree it married the secondary power stationed on the pole who sent the the best man of fire to the caddy who was so happy to see him he lifted the caddy 100 feet into the air and melted the soles of the sneakers of Darwin and the now trembling rookie. Just then ,the lights went out in half the city of Salt Lake.
Rookie promoted to warehouse then sweep tech. Wife is now expecting.BOBO Jr.
