Darwin Awards
A Darwin Award is a tongue-in-cheek "honor" given to people who supposedly improve the human gene pool as part of the natural-selection process by accidentally killing or sterilizing themselves during a foolish or careless mistake. Named after pioneering evolutionary theorist Charles Darwin, some of the "awards" are in fact urban legends.
