"This is not a criminal matter," Phoenix police Sgt. Randy Force said. "This is a 21-year-old under no coercion or duress. He may have been on the Internet, and people may have been cheering him on. But what he did, he did of his own free will.
"The people watching don't know what he's taking, how much he's taking, what the affect will be, or whether it is deadly. . . . How do they know its not just candy he's popping and putting on an act for his friends?"

This is going to be hard to top.
We've got a couple more worthy contenders in the early running:
Mariano Alexis Herrera-Ba, ex of the Dominican Republic, a maintenance crew member who froze to death in the landing gear of an airplane. He was there for several days before being found.
My personal pick so far: Raymond Porre Jr, who used a gun to take care of a troublesome dog, the best way possible, by beating it to death. The gun went off, and the dog emerged the winner in this Virginia death match.
I should admit out loud that I, too, find it funny.

You know they won't learn from this. There must be at least hundreds out there who hear about this and go "that won't happen to me, man..*I* am hardcore! That guy was stupid!"
