Police: Latrobe Teen Put M-80 Between Thighs To Muffle Explosion

Damn, you can't even chalk that up to "Seemed like a good idea at the time." What I want to know is, did he manage to win himself a Darwin award?

I like his mom's comment. Haha

He sounds pretty damn stupid. Poor guy.

Got what he deserved. Dumb ass. Don't feel sorry for people that stupid.

WTF?? That's some magically retarded shit there.

It's hard to believe people can be that dumb. I'm just amazed.

Heh, I wonder where his junk landed.

...Unbelievable.

It's dumb enough to just be playing around with explosives (he was lighting and extinguishing the fuse, not planning to USE the fireworks), but to be so dumb as to think "Oh oh gosh, I don't want anyone to hear this. I 'd better muffle the thing." instead of "Oh crap, I have an explosive object in my hand. I'd better chuck it as far away as possible and then seek cover."

I feel sorry that he lost a hand and leg, but modsbannit! The guy's a dumbass, and he would have gotten owned one way or another.

...dude.That is seriously, I mean seriously, the stupidist thing I have everheard of.

well at least he wont be having any kids... ^_^

If you don't think about it, it makes sense. But on;y if you don't think about it.

well actually im sure it did muffle it a little bit... but it prolly added a slight splash noise.

You could learn a lot from this individual, Pryme8.
