Three Die Playing Catch With Hand Grenade

Can't blame them. They had at least a 10% chance of surviving the game. Those are my kinda odds!

The idiots also managed to kill a bystander.

These people were 19 and 20 years old and are adults not youths. The articles states that it is not clear why the grenade exploded....my guess is that one of the adults pulled the pin. There has to be alcohol involved with this story I mean how many people would toss a grenade around sober??

Yep. Darwin - 1. Intelligent Design - 0.

This is almost as bad as the guy who put a firecracker in his mouth and ended up looking like Admiral Akbar.

As a 'Nam Vet once told me,

" Once the pin is pulled, Mr. Hand Grenade is not your friend."

Guess no one told it to them.

Sounds like they had a blast.

Or they didn't understand the rules of "Hot Potato".

Um, 'cause it's a fucking grenade!?

Good, three more stupid people prevented from taking up our precious oxygen...
