Not Smoking May Be Harmful To Your Health

A teenage girl died tragically avoiding cigarette smoke.

I guess second-hand smoke can be deadly.

First Darwin Awards candidate of 2003?

I always figured this would be a particularly horrible sort of death, in that you would have time to realize that you were about to die because you were doing something totally foolish, in this case, climbing out a window and sitting out on a ledge fifteen stories up.

It certainly fails the obituary test (i.e., is this how you'd like your obit to read?)

Avoiding the smoke was what killed her, not being drunk and climbing out on a ledge 15 stories up or anything.

Cigs are evil, alcohol isn't.
