We always want to outdo ourselves, throwing a simple surprise birthday party is "lame" you need to take it to the extreme, and then stuff like this happens.

Okay wait,

Am I reading this wrong or does the article say that his wife helped them dig the hole?

have any of you ever fell unexpectedly before? like going down a flight of stairs in pitch black darkness thinking you've reached the final step, oh wait, there's one more and you get that sudden jolt of surprise as your leg goes further down than intended?

this must be 100x worse.

The worst part about it's all their fault, except maybe the husband who had no knowledge of the hole.

"Fell unexpectedly" doesn't count for the wife who actually helped dig the hole.

This reminds me of the Sarah Silverman episode in which she gets a new neighbour who pulls pranks on everyone, and then the pranked take revenge and accidently kill him with a bucked of paint ...

Can't believe the friends weren't near by...what if some random people, old people, kids came by and died in there ... damn, now it never will feel the same to walk at the beach, maybe some retards made a 8.3 foot deep hole somewhere as a prank for someone and left it unguarded...

I usually don't try and take an elitist stance on humor (because if you do that, you basically don't know what humor is), but I never get the obsession with pranks...they are almost never actually funny and result in humiliation/pain of someone else. Oh I dug a huge hole and you fell in it....what's the punchline?

2.5 meters is quite deep for a prank... 1 meter wouldve been sufficient

The stupidity of some people are just mindblowing. I mean what did the expect when they trapped them in a whole with no air support or anything... fucking morons, stuff like this really pisses me off, even though they did do it intentionally. I hope they rot up in prison - They deserve it!

Everything about this is completely ridiculous, 2.5 metres? That's a stupidly deep pit to dig for "prank" purposes, having the prank take place at night? His wife falling in with him? What in the name of christ where they thinking when planning this?

Pretty stupid but I'm surprised how harsh people are being, probably everyone's done something at least once in their life whether they remember it or not where if it had gone wrong it could have ended terribly if you were unlucky.

Examples: jumping out to scare someone, messing with a persons chair while they're in it, pushing someone into pool, racing someone at a place other than a track field.

While obviously the depth of the hole and other factors make it more stupid it's the same general idea where there's obviously a chance it can end terribly but you just don't think about it at the time. If you're going to jump out and scare someone for a laugh are you really thinking " oh wait.. what if they get so scared they jump back and trip, break their neck and die?"

Wow, the idiocy of some people is really astounding.

http://www.fnn-news.com/news/headlines/articles/CONN00206435.html
According to the Japanese news the sand was damp when they dug the hole but by the time of the accident it had dried so it crumbled easily...
And apparently somebody witnessed them digging the hole and asked them what they were gunna do with it and they said they have a surprise.. if only that guy had told the police.

I used to to this to my brothers all the time at the beach. Granted it wasn't 8+ feet deep, more like 2.

BTW, they apparently died from suffocation after the sand fell in on them. It's pretty hard to die from falling only 8 feet.
