Underwear chicken dare puts man in hospital

If he doesn't survive, he's a shoo-in for the Darwin Award... do they have a category for people who almost die?

That would be the Dishonorable Mention category. However, while what this young man did was certainly stupid, I don't think it qualifies as quite bizarrely stupid enough for a Darwin. That's reserved for the likes of the boys in Tennessee a few years back, who decided the top of an oil-storage tank would be the perfect launching pad for their fireworks display...

Its about as intellegent as putting a ferret down your trousers, like they do in jolly olde england, they deserve whats going to happen next, as mr. weasel latches onto their wedding tackle

And then I go read the news story, well I made the connection with an actual chicken in the underwear, still doing either is surly stupid, and still deserves a Darwin Award

Actually at one point - and possibly still - the 7th Doctor Who (Sylvester McCoy) held the record in the Guinness book of records for the maximum number of ferrets down ones trousers.

oh and btw: You don't have to DIE to get a darwin... you can live if you have no reproductive capability and have not yet had children. (ie: are unable to contribute to the gene pool).
