The Territory news has spent the last 2 days keeping us informed of some very important news. Nothing to do with the Olympics by the way , much more newsworthy stuff than that ..
Maybe instead of trying to explain this amazing , cant-believe-its-not-global news I’ll just show you the front page of today’s paper :
Yep , this guy is the territory’s latest candidate for a Darwin award.
In his own words 23 yr old Alex Bowden told the NT news ” I just had a few beers with the boys and let off a few fire crackers ……. And then I decided to put one in my arse”.
What a bloody great idea ? Why the hell have I never thought of doing this party trick myself …
Anyway he did let the NT news know that there wasn’t any major damage “It didn’t burn my balls or my back , just my fingers and my arse”.
He said he did not bleed and could walk afterwards .. Oh and it was also reported in the article that he didn’t cry but he did say fuck a few times.
Gotta love the NT news. Meanwhile I have no idea what is happening in London apart from the 4 Aussie blokes coming 4th in the relay swimming heat and crying about it. Hey guys , try having a fire cracker shoved up your arse !!
This is your nutty reporter signing off , have an awesome week people xx

Amazing!!!! You beat me to this blog

Id love to see your version ! I couldn’t help myself , that story was gold – my grandmother from Melbourne posted this on my Facebook wall “Hi Kel -got to let you know what was in the paper this morning – ‘A man,23,was badly hurt when a party trick involving firecrackers between his buttocks went wrong. “What must have seemed to be a great idea at the time has backfired, resulting in severe burns,” Darwin’s SenSgt Garry Smith said.” Good for your blog I thought!”

I was like YES !! Its national news , now they ‘ll really think we’re crazy up here !!
Your nan is very cool
Reblogged this on Dumb Workers and commented:
To the lead up of my return, I present the latest Darwin Award nomination from the scrubgirl, Kel!
I’d call him a dumbass, but that seems sort of redundant.
How do you find these things mate, and i thought southerners were crazy
The NT news is one crazy paper !!
Honestly, when I read crackers (before I read the post) I thought you were referring to us ghostly pale people.
Really, though, I thought EVERYONE put crackers in their ass. It is the thing to do. You don’t? What kind of backwoods hillbilly doesn’t stuff a ritz or saltine in their backside? Sheesh….;)
