Darwin Award Finalists

Perez said Ruiz wanted to make a YouTube video of her shooting into a book held to his chest, and he believed the book would stop the bullet ... Perez told investigators she fired a 50 caliber handgun from about one foot away while Ruiz held the book to his chest. [More]
Looks like her Twitter feed and YouTube channel are still up.

"Ruiz’s aunt told Valley News Live that the couple had been trying to get famous on YouTube”

Congratulations. Now you’re famous.

Unfortunately the Darwin Awards closed up shop a couple of years ago. The website is still there but no new additions are being made. Otherwise this guy Ruiz would qualify. Trying to stop a .50AE round fired from about a foot away with a book surely would qualify.
