Celebrities12 People Who Died In The Dumbest Possible Way by 20bc(op):
gold face
Two criminals were quite competent when it came to
robbing a cell phone store in South Carolina, but they
were terrible at coming up with disguises. One of the
robbers, named James, had spray painted his face gold
in an attempt to protect his identity. Spray paint fumes
are extremely toxic, so it was no surprise when James
had trouble breathing and eventually died. Ironically,
the witnesses were easily able to identify James despite
his "disguise.

road to Rio
A young Brazilian couple were driving along the largest
freeway in the country when they suddenly got the urge
to get freaky. They pulled over and parked and starting
getting busy right there in the middle of the road. Since
there was a thick fog that morning, it wasn't long before
a massive truck slammed into the couple's car and
quickly ended their lovemaking session.

smoking gun
This dumb death goes all the way back to the Civil War
era. Clement Vallandigham was a criminal defense
lawyer who was representing a client on trial for
murder. He argued that the victim drew his own gun in
a way that caused it to go off and kill himself.
Vallandigham offered a demonstration in the courtroom
with the victim's original loaded gun. The gun fired and
killed Vallandigham, but he won the case!

ashes to ashes
In 2005, a man in Croatia named Marko was trying to
sweep out his chimney. He discovered that the opening
was too high for him to use a broom, so he decided to
attach a brush to a chain instead. He needed something
to add to weight the brush so it would go down the
chimney, so he grabbed the first object he could find...
a hand grenade. As he attempted to weld the grenade to
the chain, the grenade predictably exploded and killed
him.

shocking fish tale
Some people love fishing for the sport, but this
fisherman from Sri Lanka didn't play by the rules. He
regularly came out to a local canal and made an easy
catch by electrocuting fish with an electric motor. One
day, the motor suddenly stopped working and stepped
onto it before remembering to shut off the power. The
shock from his own deadly tool reportedly sent him
flying about 12 feet into the air and caused him to
drown.

free falling
A Texas construction worker was once hired to reinforce
the structure of a communications tower. He was simply
going about his work until he suddenly plummeted over
200 feet to his death. The worker had accidentally
loosened the bolts on the bar that he was hanging from

tigers leaves no survivors [/b[…
A German couple were visiting a drive-thru safari park
in Spain filled with all sorts of wild animals. For
whatever reason, the pair decided to stop their car and
get out when they reached the tiger enclosure. It was
only a matter of seconds before three tigers pounced
and made the dumb tourists their next meal.

[b[hurricane party

Hurricane Camille took 259 lives when it hit the Gulf
Coast in 1969, but 20 of those deaths could have been
prevented. A group of friends decided to host a
hurricane party in their second-story beachfront
apartment while they waited out the storm. They figured
they were safe on the second floor, but a 24-foot wave
proved them wrong and destroyed the entire apartment.

bungee bungle
In 1997, a Virginia fast food worker named Eric Barcia
decided that he wanted to bungee jump off of a 70-foot
hight railroad trussle. He had a bunch of individual
bungie cords and strung them all together to make a
bungee rope. Aside from being a dumb idea in the first
place, the problem was that his makeshift rope was also
70-feet long. Obviously, he wasn't slowed down at all
by the rope before hitting the ground.

pit crew blues
In the parking lot outside of Skagit Raceway in 2010,
two pit crew members came up with the genius idea to
fill a barrel with methanol, light it, and ride it across the
parking lot like a rocket. As most normal people would
expect, the barrel simply exploded and sent the two
men flying into the air. One man died and the other
suffered from serious injuries.

macho man
A 47-year-old man from Germany was trying to prove to
his wife that he was still as strong as he ever was. So
of course he decided to dangle from their 7th floor
balcony and do pull ups. After doing a few, he no
longer had the strength to pull himself back up and fell
to his death. The coroner proclaimed the cause of death
as "machismo."

speed demon
A Brazilian teenager named Giovana Alves Dias de
Souza seemed like a normal girl, but she had a need for
speed. She decided it would be cool to post a picture to
her Facebook page of her spedometer at 180 km/h.
Somehow, she got away with it and lived to tell the
tale.
A few months later, Giovana decided to repeat her
daredevil stunt. The police found her mangled car after
she lost control and hit a support pole. Her phone was
found with a picture of her spedometer at 170 km/h.

CelebritiesViral By Accident: 7 People Who Accidentally Became Famous. by 20bc(op):
1. NASA Mohawk Guy
His name is Bobak Ferdowsi, but he’s better known as
NASA Mohawk Guy or Hot NASA Guy. During the live
broadcast of the Mars rover’s landing in 2012, eyes
suddenly shifted away from the rover and toward one of
the people working in the control room.
A screengrab of Ferdowsi, with his head turned to the
side to show off his Mohawk with stars shaved into the
side, made Ferdowi had become a viral sensation, even
before his name was known. Thousands of fans created
crush blogs dedicated to him and a meme about his
attractiveness (ex: “Guides a rover through space…and
into my heart”) made the rounds.
Even President Obama shouted
out the young jet propulsion
engineer when he called NASA to
congratulate them on the
success of their project. Since
then, Ferdowsi has used his
accidental Internet fame to
encourage young people to get
involved in STEM (science,
technology, engineering, and
math) fields and raise awareness
about the space program.

2. Antoine Dodson
When his sister was almost raped
by a man who broke in the
window of their Alabama home,
Antoine Dodson appeared on a
local news channel expressing his fear of violence in the
community. “He’s climbin’ in your windows, he’s
snatchin’ your people up, tryin’ to rape ‘em. So y’all
need to hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your
husband cause they’re rapin’ everybody out here,” he
said.
The clip went viral, catching the attention of “Autotune
the News” video creators The Gregory Brothers, who
turned Antoine’s quotes into The Bed Intruder Song.
(Half of their profits from the song’s sale went to
Dodson.)
Dodson embrace his new meme-dom with a website and
a YouTube channel, sold T-shirts with his name and
picture on them, and eventually launched his own app
that helped people track sex offenders in their
communities. In an appearance on TODAY in 2010,
Dodson said he planned to use his new cash windfall to
move his family to a safer area, adding “I hate that it
happened this way, but a lot of good came out of it.”

3. Ridiculously Photogenic Guy
In 2012, a man took some photos
of his friends running in the
Cooper River Bridge Run in
Charleston, South Carolina. One
of those pics happened to
capture a stranger named Zeddie
Little in the background. After
the photos were uploaded to
popular image-sharing website
Reddit, attention quickly began
to focus on Little, whose good
looks and warm smile earned him
the nickname Ridiculously
Photogenic Guy, or RPG. Soon
RPG was being Photoshopped
into all kinds of pictures, from
wedding shots to news pics. The
joke was that any picture, no
matter how trashy or out-of-
focus, would suddenly turn
classy and elegant once RPG was
inserted into it.
Although Little could have
probably ridden the fame of his
Internet celebrity (or at least
booked a modeling gig) once his
name was revealed, the South
Carolinian preferred to keep a low profile. TODAY spoke
to some friends of Little’s, who all talked about what a
great guy he is .

Although there are several social media accounts
claiming to be Little, none of them are legit. Sorry,
ladies, he’s also in a relationship!

4. Sheltering Suburban Mom
Carly Phillips is a stay at home mom and romance
novelist whose titles include "Perfect Fling" and "Perfect
Together." In 2011, her professional author photo was
uploaded to Reddit, where it became the symbol of the
“sheltering suburban mom” (sometimes just “suburban
mom”) meme. Examples of text used in the meme
include “Lets kids watch PG-13 movies… when they’re
17” and “Thinks video games will rot your brain… plays
Farmville for six hours.”
However, there was one person
who didn’t jump on the viral
meme bandwagon — Phillips
herself, who only found out
about her online fame when a
reader posted one of the pictures
on her Facebook author fan page.
Although she has taken the
meme-ification in stride, she
doesn’t mention it in her official
bio.

5. Double Rainbow Guy
Who hasn’t been totally awed by
the beauty of nature? A YouTube
user with the name
Hungrybear9562 posted a video
of a double rainbow he saw in
Yosemite Park in 2010, and got so emotional while
filming it that he started crying.
The video sat, ignored, for months until someone on the
staff of talk show host Jimmy Kimmel stumbled upon it.
Kimmel tweeted the video to his nearly three million
followers, and other celebrities began to retweet it.
Soon, the video was a bona fide Internet hit.
Eventually, “Double Rainbow Guy” was identified as Paul
Vasquez, a former trucker and firefighter who lived in the
Yosemite area. Eventually, Vasquez landed a corporate
sponsorship with Microsoft, who featured him (and his
love of double rainbows) in a promotional video for their
Windows Live Photo Gallery program.

6. Swampmusic12
In July 2013, a Tennessee man named Mark Brown
started a YouTube channel using the handle
Swampmusic12. Brown, a self-identified hillbilly with
two pet raccoons, posted his very first video, which was
of him dancing with his raccoon Rebekah.
Over the next year, the video slowly grew in popularity,
with fans loving Brown’s exuberance — and the Hannah
Montana-brand raccoon repellent he sprayed on himself
in the clip.
Brown quickly embraced his Internet celebrity and made
several followup videos, including one where he took a
shower with Rebekah. Soon after, he posted a vlog
where he made a sad announcement — the videos had
gotten the attention of Tennessee state officials, who
seized Rebekah and said she wasn’t allowed as a pet.
Brown asked his fans to help lobby the state and get
Rebekah back. So far, though, the two have not been
reunited.

7. Lydia Callis
When New York City was
preparing for Hurricane Sandy in
October 2012, Mayor Michael
Bloomberg appeared on TV to
give residents advice about how
to prepare. Next to him was a
woman named Lydia Callis, who
interpreted Bloomberg’s remarks
into American Sign Language.
Quickly, Tumblr blogs paid
tribute to her facial expressions
and signing skills. However, it
wasn’t just viewers at home who
were fascinated by Callis —
fellow sign language translators
were thrilled to see their
profession catapulted into the
big time .
But that wasn’t all for Callis — she was also parodied on
Saturday Night Live, with comedian Cecily Strong
playing Callis and Nasim Pedrad playing a fictional
interpreter for New Jersey Governor Chris Christie.
Callis herself kept a pretty low profile and turned down
requests for interviews, claiming that her job was to
interpret the news, not to make it. On Sunday, the New
York Times reported she has used her fame to advocate
for the deaf, and leads tours at the New York Public
Library.
