Can they add that many people for one entry into the Darwin awards?

The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.

i like the no cameras thing... brings up images of christians in the coliseum or something.

but a 50% take?

yikes!

life is cheap.

you'd think the lion would've eaten his fill after a few were killed, were the corpses cleared out by the handlers?

after 28, why stop there?

did the spectators cry foul and get refunds?

these are questions for some reason i'd like answered.

Why does the address start with http://www.newturfers.com/ if its on the BBC site... wouldn't it start with bbc.co.uk?

It's probably fake...

Edit: nevermind ... guess someone beat me to it...
