SAN FRANCISC0 (Reuters) - A man drowned on his 21st birthday after attempting to swim across a pond in northern California while carrying a 10-pound (4.5 kg) rock, the Los Angeles Times reported on Wednesday.

The California Highway Patrol told the newspaper that Austin Harr was with friends at a pond in the Oroville Wildlife Area on Monday evening when he slipped under the water.

After a few minutes passed, his friends grew worried and tried looking for him before calling for help, the newspaper said.

Rescue workers found him about an hour later, and he was pronounced dead at a local hospital, the Times said. Officials told the newspaper they believed alcohol played a role in his death.

Man dies in southwest Missouri after venomous snake bites both of his legs

NIXA, Mo. (AP) — A 37-year-old southwest Missouri man is dead after being bitten on both legs by a venomous snake after he waded into the James River.

The Springfield News-Leader reports Gilbert De Leon and his girlfriend were at the Delaware Access southwest of Nixa on Friday afternoon when he waded into the river and felt himself being bitten.

Christian County Coroner Brad Cole says De Leon ignored his girlfriend’s pleas to go to a hospital and instead went to his Nixa home. The woman woke up Saturday morning and found him dead.

Oh and by "man" they mean tatted up douche drizzle.

That is nuts. That guy was most likely bitten by a member of the Viperidae family. Those snakes use hemotoxic poisons. Hemotoxins are painful as all fuck. That is unless he was in some way anesthetized. I think we can tag that with "alcohol played a role in his death."
