Honoring those who improve our gene pool by inadvertently removing themselves from it, The Darwin Awards IIIincludes more than one hundred brand new, hilariously macabre mishaps and misadventures.From a sheriff who inadvertently shot himself twice, to the insurance defrauder who amputated his leg with a chainsaw; from a farmer who avoided bee stings by sealing his head in a plastic bag to the man crushed by the branch he just trimmed, The Darwin Awards IIIproves again that when it comes to stupidity, no species does it like we do.Featuring scientific and safety discussions and filled with illustrations depicting inspiring examples of evolution in action, The Darwin Awards IIIshows once more how uncommon common sense still is.
