Almost... but no death involved although a shortened life span could qualify and what about the neighbours?

I don't think one needs necessarily to die to be a Darwin Award Nominee. Being removed from the gene pool is enough - and I am not sure he will be able to have children...

Jama: Kim jong-il is about the right height to be a boy scout.

He has similarities to Mini-Me from Austin Powers.

And some similar aspirations as well...
