What Goes Up Must Come Down
2007 Darwin Award Nominee
Confirmed True by Darwin
"What goes up must come down."
(20 June 2007, South Carolina) A passing cabbie found a 21 year-old
couple Znaked and injured in the road an hour before sunrise. The two
people died at the nearest hospital without regaining consciousness.
Authorities were at a loss to explain what had happened. There were no
witnesses, no trace of clothing, and no wrecked cars or motorcycles.
Investigators eventually found a clue high on the roof of a nearby
building: two sets of neatly folded clothes. Safe sex takes on a whole new
meaning when you are perched on the edge of a pyramid-shaped metal
roof. "It appears as if [they] accidentally fell off the roof," Sgt. Florence
McCants said.
