Devon was not the kind of person who would do something stupid
I would beg to differ.

There's one doing the rounds on facebook at the moment of a gang member who died after trying to gold plate his testicles because his crew had recently nicknamed him golden balls and he was a fan of the movie character Gold Member.

Yeah f
k those alligators.
"Orange County Justice of the Peace Rodney Price told CNN affiliate KFDM that Woodward ignored verbal warnings and a posted "No Swimming Alligators" sign and seemed to mock the deadly creatures before going in the water.
"He removed his shirt, removed his billfold ... someone shouted a warning and he said 'blank the alligators' and jumped in to the water and almost immediately yelled for help," Price said. "

I've seen somebody do this for real except it was a crocodile infested river in Australia.k those alligators.

He was a bush-worn Aussie who had been drinking for many hours prior, and was therefore indestructable. Despite us being able to see two crocodiles from where we were moored, he decided to jump in and walk around the boat. Twice.
My understanding of man-points allocation is that; the fact he survived means he's a massive hero unlike the complete moron in this story...

My interpretation would be that he's a very lucky moron.He was a bush-worn Aussie who had been drinking for many hours prior, and was therefore indestructable. Despite us being able to see two crocodiles from where we were moored, he decided to jump in and walk around the boat. Twice.

In all seriousness it does give me shivers thinking back. You simply don't mess with an animal that's had tens of millions of years refining the art of taking you under.That just reminded me of another incident while we were there; a tourist was sitting at the edge of the river holding his camera in one hand and tapping a stick on the water with the other, hoping to get a dramatic close-up croc strike photo. As I recall, he just lost one of his knees instead.
