Yeah. I think making yourself sterile due to said stupid act counts as well since you can't reproduce after that.

Correct. But those who nearly die are eligible for honorable mention Darwin awards.

Maybe next time they'll just try good ol' fashioned rotoscoping.

It's interesting to note that most of the results of that web search show modern digital equivalents of rotoscoping, without actually explaining the original mechanical/photographic rotoscope system that was used by animators as far back as Snow White.

You know, before reading up on a few of the links, I thought rotoscoping sounded like something very un-fun that would happen at the proctologists' office.
