This person may be the 2010 Darwin Award winner. From Yahoo News: A doctor whose decomposing body was found in the narrow chimney of her boyfriend's house died of asphyxiation when her lungs couldn't expand to breathe, authorities said Wednesday.
Dr. Jacquelyn Kotarac was trapped while trying to get into the Bakersfield home on Aug. 25, police said.
"The pressure being placed on the chest wouldn't allow her lungs to expand and she suffocated," Kern County sheriff-coroner spokesman Ray Pruitt said about the autopsy....
Her corpse was discovered Saturday when a house-sitter noticed an odor and fluids coming from the fireplace.
People in the home had noticed nothing until then, police said.
Kotarac was reported missing Thursday when she failed to show up for work, Bakersfield police Sgt. Mary DeGeare said.
The night before, she tried to get into the house with a shovel then climbed a ladder to the roof, removed the chimney cap and slid down feet first. police said.

And yet this person is a doctor, someone who is supposed to have common sense and be smart. Now she is a Darwin of the Year candidate.
