Recently a lorry driver returned to his depot, got out of the cab to open the gate,jumped back in and sensibly sanitized his hands with alcohol based sanitizer from a 1 litre bottle.
Then not so sensibly he lit a fag.......
Which ignited the alcohol on his hands which ignited the 1 litre bottle.
The explosion blew both driver and windscreen out of the cab, the windscreen blew 2 metres away.
Oops !
Ouch

Special mention in the 2020 Darwin Awards? Mind you, there's going to be a lot of competition! 
Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others.
The same applies when you are stupid.

I think the 2020 Darwin Awards would make interesting reading !
I get constant updates from Waste Industry Safety Health organisation, and yes, people do some dumb weird stuff
