Believe me...this is NOT a hoax or an edit...this is actual footage from a real security camera in a shopping mall in South Korea. The Daily Mail (UK Newspaper) reported it. They say that the drop was 19'...and, given the fact that he was paralyzed...probably fell face first onto the shaft floor below.
There is a woman, who initially is more interested in preening herself (there is a purse you can see hanging), and she does not seem to make any attempt to hold the door open. Who cares? It is another male in a wheelchair? SHE deserves the Darwin award!
This man won the Darwin Award of the century: "Confirmed // South Korea: This angry man epitomizes the downfall of the human race. It began with simply missing an elevator, the proverbial straw on the camel's back. With stresssed-out rage, Angry Wheelchair Man rammed his chair 3x against the lift doors, (bam! bam! bam!), angrily breaking through and falling down the rabbit hole of the elevator shaft to his death. This dead 40-year-old lives on as a poster child: Stress kills. Gravity kills, too"
This was in all the papers when it first happened, and the video is exactly what I watched the day after the incident was reported in the international press.
Before anyone decides not to believe it, they should ask someone who is related to a Korean.
Not only does Darwin always (for a decade or more) conduct scrupulous fact-checking, but so do the world's major news media.
We need to move on, and notice how sad the rage of a wheelchair-bound person is.
The real Darwin award goes to everyone that is fooled by the video. If you missed it's blatantly obvious edit, you're probably dumb enough to forget to breath.
I'm not sure people like this even deserve to be considered sentient. Just think: people this stupid are still allowed to operate machinery and vote. Frightening.
The guy didn't die. Look to the right of the screen. The elevator was only one story high and he landed on the top of it. He only actually fell about 5 feet. He was not a Darwin award winner.
@MrWhaatay At the end of the video you can even see movement at the lower left of the screen where the guy was stopped. If he had fallen far, you would not see this movement.
@MarkusHomer He isn't mentally disabled, he is physically disabled. That means although his body may not function correctly his mind should be expected to operate normally and realise this is incredibly stupid.
In saying that, anyone who manages to win a Darwin Award could be considered mentally disabled due to their immense stupidity. I believe they limit the "mentally disabled" title to someone with a recognized mental illness which severely impairs their ability to make rational decisions.
@MysteryAlfa I'm pretty sure that people who fall down elevator shafts aren't really known to survive. Especially if they have a Rascal end up on top of them like it looks like he might have.
What a way to exit the gene pool, didn't really deserve to be there in the first place. Idiot. At least he got a Darwain Award. Some people are so thick dying's the only thing they'll ever be good at :/
This man does in fact die. He received a Darwin Award for it. "(25 August 2010, Daejon, South Korea) VIDEO NEWS! A handicapped man, annoyed that an elevator closed and departed without him, thinks it over before ramming his wheelchair into the doors not once, not twice, but three times in all--only to plunge down the now-empty elevator shaft to his death. Simultaneous success and failure combine to earn the 40-year-old "Angry Wheelchair Man" lasting immortality as a Darwin Award winner."
