Two Belgian bankrobbers have been named the Darwin Award winners of the year after killing themselves while trying to crack open a safe. The pair used so much dynamite that they managed to destroy the entire bank building - and themselves with it. Wendy Northcutt, the founder of the annual awards, declared them the 2009 winners of the Darwin Awards, given to those doing the most to improve the human gene pool by removing themselves from it.
