From News of the CypherPunks:

* In March, a 36-year-old man choked to death on a 6-inch tropical fish he had popped into his mouth while showing off for friends in Bayou Vista, La. And in April, a 12-year-old boy was electrocuted in East Palo Alto, Calif., after he climbed a high-voltage transmission tower in the rain, dared his three companions to join him, and then accidentally touched a wire. And in July, a 22-year- old man, described by his grandmother as "smart in school," died in a bungee-cord accident on a railroad trestle in Fairfax County, Va. (Said a police spokesman: "The length of the cord that he had assembled was greater than the distance between the trestle and the ground.")
