Russian soldier dies from radiation poisoning in Chernobyl: Serviceman was part of a unit camped in the toxic nearby Red Forest, clueless about what they were being exposed to

I wondered if any notable generals were there. These Russian troops were given a year or two to live.

I fail to see how that’s Darwinian.  If they knew and camped there anyway, that would qualify. This may be an Ironic Death but not even sure about that. Probably just ‘Interesting Way to Die’ thread imho.

On April 29, 59-year-old Nicky Myers of Pilot Station fell through the ice on the Yukon River on his snowmachine and died. He was the mayor of Pilot Station, proto-deacon of the Russian Orthodox church, a crew boss for local wildfire firefighters, a member of search-and-rescue, and a family man.

It’s the first river death in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta this year.

"Influencer" dies after three months in a coma after choking on a kebab:

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/18834440/social-media-influencer-dies-choking-kebab/

 

She was "rushing to have dinner"

 

Honestly, it could happen to me, too. I don't need to be influenced into choking on a kebab.

HUNDREDS OF DARWIN AWARDS IN ONE GO!!!!1!!

 

A Russian  mercenary base was visited by a Russian propagandist Sergei Sreda. They welcomed him with open arms and posed for pictures at their headquarters. Big mistake cause one of the photos showed a street sign with information to of the closest bomb shelter. Needless to say Ukranian intelligence found the place in no time and blew the place to Kingdom come.

 

Saint Peter had a busy day that day.

I know it’s posted elsewhere but should be here.

 

A 25-year-old man in Houston died after he climbed or jumped to the top of an 18-wheeler and began dancing before he fell from the truck as it passed under a bridge on Nov. 10.

The incident took place at 200 Eastex Freeway at about 11:35 a.m.

Man dies from failure in communication.

 

A man was talking to bees, he believed to be the reincarnation of his ancestors.

Turns out, they were just noisy neighbors and they killed him. 

Or maybe they were his ancestors and wanted to teach him a lesson of sorts.... I don't know.
