    Pouring liquid copper into ice

    It's not often that one gets to see the complete build-up to a failed attempt at a Darwinian correction. It's terrifying to think that people this stupid are allowed to vote, drive and hunt using firearms.

    He was discovering a new method to anneal/harden copper, seriously though, another candidate for a future Darwin award, what's the saying, all the gear but no clue!

    The fact that he "advertises" it all over media really shows his "talent"!

    It looks like the bucket peeled from the seam and flew off opposite him, so maybe his leg was damaged by supersonic ice. To his credit, he had on a welding apron, goggles and what look like MIG gloves, so he's not brainless. He just failed to consider all of the failure possibilities. He seems to have learned his lesson and has a sense of humor about it. This is in his list of damages: "5. Bucket will not hold water anymore.".
