Wed Aug 21, 2013 1:55 pm

Found this one a while back (on a UK forum) and although the locale settings will differ to your place, the message remains:

I could probably add a couple verses to that based on some personal (not very bright) experiences......

Yes, these are all common causes of death in Melbourne, Australia.

Edit: Oh, sorry didn't follow the link. I was talking about the original put out by Melbourne's Metro Trains.
Edit: Yes, sorry for the sarcasm. This is actually a very valid issue in Melbourne and I am sure many places in the world that have a metropolitan train system. Here in Melbourne much of our rail infrastructure is not underground so we have a large number of level crossing. I am not really sure if the Dumb ways to die campaign has been effective or not. My children found the advertisement funny and it provided an opportunity to discuss safety around trains.

Reminds me of the Darwin awards. People that remove themselves from the gene pool in particularly dumb moves.
