Description
Book SynopsisThe hilarious New York Times bestselling phenomenon and the perfect funny gift!
The Darwin Awards are more than just a brand. They''re a pop culture phenomenon. With six books and a website that draws in more than a million unique visitors every month, the Darwin Awards rivals
The Onion and
The Simpsons as one of the biggest humor franchises in the world.
Fully illustrated and featuring all-new tales of the marvelously macabre,
The Darwin Awards Countdown to Extinction chronicles the astonishing acts of individuals who have taken a swan dive into the shallow end of the gene pool. From attaching a five-horsepower engine to a barstool, to hammering a metal hook into an explosive device, to using a taser to treat a snake bite, these gloriously gruesome incidents prove that the countdown (to human extinction) is well under way. And we won''t exit this mortal coil without one last laugh.

The Darwin Awards, taken together, constitute a delicious sermon in support of common sense."—
