Darwin Awards - We have a winner, sort of....

Every year the Darwin award is posthumously awarded to someone who, by permanently removing themselves from the gene pool, has contributed to the betterment of mankind, at least genetically!

When his 38-caliber revolver failed to fire at his intended victim during a hold-up in Long Beach, California, would-be robber James Elliot did something that can only inspire wonder. He peered
down the barrel and tried the trigger again. This time it worked.....

Sounds like a worthy winner to me.

Thanks to Mary for the heads-up on this one.....
