It doesn't matter what year, these are great. 200 pounds of packy derm dung at terminal velocity rocks.

Unfortunately, the "Winner" is almost certain a corruption of an urban legend that is well-known to be fake. It even says so on the Darwin Awards website:

I've heard the one about the firearms store. If I hadn't met so many stupid people in my time I'd think it was a hoax, but I've actually heard of stupider.

These shouldn't be given this kind of attention. Apart from a few confused individuals, many of them did things we'd find cool were they not killed or maimed for it. Many of them were in the wrong place at the wrong time. And just the idea of calling something the Darwin Awards means that eventually, it should cease to exist along with the betterment of humanity, and we all know that's not going to happen.

And death has always struck me as a sad thing; I don't know maybe its just me.

Was second place given to Kerry Bingham's foot? Else this needs to be replaced.

second place doesn't qualify, he's still in the gene-pool

It wouldn't be a real Darwin awards list cause "second place" didn't even remove himself from the gene pool.

Alas, I think this list is a hoax. The Darwin Awards website lists the "first place" one about the constipated elephant as a 1998 Urban Legend.
