How not to open a grenade... - Yahoo! News:

A Brazilian man died Tuesday when he tried to open what police believe was a rocket-propelled grenade with a sledgehammer in a mechanical workshop on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro.

When I was a boy, my mom always used to tell me not to hit an RPG with a sledgehammer.

Oh, wait. That wasn't it.

It was, don't touch dead birds, don't cross the street without looking both ways, and don't pick a scab.

Hitting an explosive device with a giant hammer. No, she never mentioned that one.

Well, ironically enough that guy is up in the heavens with Thor now. Racing around through the clouds, swinging his ethereal hammer, and and wondering how many seconds after the flash it will take for his ears to hear the boom.

Probably on his last encounter with using a hammer he did not have a chance to count.

If there was a real Darwin awards, I think this guy has won a chance to go to the head of the line.

Now, technically, if he has had kids, evolution has failed. In which case I do not think he should be eligible to win the contest. However, I do not know what the official rules are, so I could be wrong.
