by the way, Trap, excellent topic

I think my favorite one is the guy that tried to steal something from a vending machine by sticking his hand up the chute, and then he got it stuck.  In his struggle to free himself he managed to pull the machine down on top of him crushing his skull.

Glock32:
I saw one going around (pictures included) of a would-be copper thief.  He attempted to cut wires from inside a fenced-in electrical substation. Needless to say 13,000 volts can incinerate entire limbs off.

We had two of those locally. They were in the median of the freeway stealing wire from the streetlights. How they could have possibly figured that they could do this without getting zapped is beyond comprehension....and apparently beyond possibility.

They fried themselves in full view of morning commuters.

trapeze:
You need to post those here.
