Tough Guy Award 4
Darwin works both ways, and man didn’t get to the top of the food chain by accident. The “Tough Guy Award” is the opposite of the Darwin Award.
So far all our Tough Guy Award recipients have been Americans, but there are Tough Guys all over the world. This week we look to Africa to find our latest Tough Guy Award winner, Daniel M’Mburugu of Kenya. Mr. M’Mburugu is a 73 year old grandfather who was ambushed by a leopard while tending his potato and bean crops. The leopard sank its teeth into Mr. M’Mburugu’s wrist and mauled him with its claws, but Mr. Mburugu fought back and killed the beast by reaching into its mouth and ripping its tongue out!
