18 years old. That sucks.
It reminds of a kid I graduated with. Later that summer, him and some friends were out on a boat, and it was getting dark. Apparently they went under some kind of dock or bridge (it's been 20 years, so I don't remember all the details), and they didn't see it. Whacked his head on it and he wound up dying, too. This one was more of a freak accident, though. They weren't fucking around at all. Just wrong place, wrong time.

Sounds similar to this boating accident that killed two major league baseball players.

But you do it to anybody who mentions the thing… I don’t do that to you and hockey even though I’d rather yank my eyes out with tweezers than watch that boring ass sport… I don’t harass you about it though.

All this poster talks about is baseball and Ron Cameron (71.01% of posts). Maybe pick another martyr.

Baseball is boring ass. Hockey is boring ass. Basketball is boring ass. Football is boring ass. Synchronized swimming is boring ass (especially men's). Figure skating is boring ass. Tennis is boring ass. Curling is boring ass. NASCAR is boring ass. Hopscotch is boring ass. UFC is boring ass and dumb. Golf is boring ass and middle class.

It's a pity the Darwin Award is only given posthumously. The lucky recipient doesn't get to bask in the glory or to appear as a guest on the talk shows.
