On June 19, 2006, in Columbus, OH. When a lazy man's wife announces that she is divorcing him, he repeatedly injures himself to make it look like he was abused by her.

Chris
On September 10, 2010, in North Pekin, IL. A stripper and her planking-obsessed midget boyfriend stumble upon a playground, which is the perfect place for him to plank. While he poses on one end of the seesaw, a block of blue ice that was dropped from a passing plane lands on the other end and catapults the midget up into the air. He lands on the top crossbar of the swing set with enough force to cause fatal internal bleeding in his chest.
