First of all, if it's so important that we NOT attempt to do whatever stupid stunt they are showcasing, why isn't the disclaimer flashing in giant red letters across the screen instead of hidden in miniscule print that nobody but me reads?
But that's not my point. I personally think if anyone is stupid enough to try speeding through a mountain pass in the snow/rain with a 3,000 foot drop off and no guard rail, then they kinda deserve to go plummeting off the edge.
Some things are such a bad idea, they don't need disclaimers. And I have two words for anyone who disagrees with me:
DARWIN AWARDS

I agree with you!
In the south, potential Darwin Award recipients always begin with "Hey, ya'll, watch this..."
I love the Darwin awards - we have an omnibus collection at our cabin and it's been read aloud soooo many times. Re the warnings - isn't that like the saying 'the problem with common sense is that it isn't common...' ;p The idiots who will copy such a stunt certainly aren't likely to read the disclaimer first! *lol*
...love those Darwin's, although at times it's simply nothing more than some poor soul out to get his mugshot posted on the flat screen.
Sadly, it often pays off ;)
