Well this is an interesting thread, juxtaposed with the Gorilla one. Isn't Darwin in Australia!?!

You pays your money.
Assess the risks and away you go. Could have been worse, just think piranhas.

A candidate for the Darwin award but a terrible, terrible way to die nonetheless. RIP.

.... know the area pretty well as we have camped a few times at Noah Beach just south of there. I’m pretty wary getting into the water during the day (as long as it’s not stinger season!) never mind at night. Anyone who swims up here at night near the mouth of any creek is insane & deserves to be eaten. I imagine most of the ones who do end up in the water are pissed/stoned or both. There’s plenty of large weed plantations out the back blocks of the Daintree (just as there are here in Bingil Bay or Mission Beach.) Beautiful place to live & bring up kids though

Obviously we don’t have crocodiles over here, but can you imagine the uproar if we did and that had happened? Health and Safety would be on overdrive, people would be getting sacked, there would be a mass education programme and additional benefits for the especially stupid.
I recall something similar in Oz a few years ago where they interviewed a local Aussie cop. He is stood in front of a “beware crocodiles” sign and the TV interviewer asks him his thoughts. The cop replies words to the effect of “ what a bloody stupid thing to do by going swimming, the signs tell you it’s stupid, but there are some stupid people about”. Would we ever see that level of honesty and saying things how they are in this country, or just accept that we can’t upset the stupid?

"If you go in swimming at 10 o'clock at night, you're going to get consumed." Bye the way, did anyone notice that the original post is from 2016 so 'xchpotter' is probably remembering the same thing that's being reported here. |

Czech singer dies after catching Covid intentionallyA folk singer from the Czech Republic has died after deliberately catching Covid, her son has told the BBC. Hana Horka, 57, was unvaccinated and had posted on social media that she was recovering after testing positive, but died two days later.

It's not in this clip but in the show he carries on to take the piss out of those who consider the pandemic to be fake, planned, a sham etc., and how we'll need to dig up those people who subsequently died to tell them, "Up you come, you silly cunt, you died from this and it's not even real, you twat"...  |
