I was thinking that some of the folks in the video, and their kindred spirits, might be future Darwin Award recipients. However, a review of the criteria for the award reveals that:
Darwin Awards are unlikely to be awarded to individuals who shoot themselves in the head while demonstrating that a gun is unloaded. This occurs too often and is classed as an accident. In contrast, candidates shooting themselves in the head to demonstrate that a gun is loaded may be eligible for a Darwin Award—such as the man who shot himself in the head with a “spy pen” weapon to show his friend that it was real.

Wasn't there a winner one year that earned his "wings", by feeding laxatives to an elephant? (He was a zookeeper)
When the elephant finally let go; this guy was standing in the line of fire, and he ended up being smothered by a fact of Life: elephants take massive ... you don't give them any extra incentive!

I had a Winchester Wrangler lever action rifle. My wife wanted to shoot it. It fired 32 Winchester Specials. The rifle only held four rounds. As my wife was getting ready to shoot, I noticed it was not snug against her shoulder. Did I say anything? Absolutely not. I didn't want her swinging around and pointing the rifle at me. She learned. She also learned the difference between a 38 Special and a 357 Magnum.
