Eight ways to kill someone with an iPod nano

Here's an interesting feature that Apple, understandably, didn't place on the iPod nano's public feature list: deadly killing machine. A tongue-in-cheek article entitled "Eight ways to kill someone with an iPod nano, according to ex-marine Brad Collom" offers just that: a guide to killing someone (effectiveness not guaranteed) with a little plastic box that plays music. Who knew?

Thanks, N.

What's hilarious is that Gizmodo is linking to this article and sort of acting like an ex-Marine actually wrote it.

Seriously amplify the output so it kills the person who is listen' to some tunes. I read somewhere a very loud sound (150+ dB) can cause death.

Is there disturbed intent behind the list? Nah. Is this well written satire? Well, not really. But #s 7 and 8, I think, do begin to get to he funny; the ironic commentary. A good effort none the less.

Oh, I don't know. #7 and #8 are funny. People need to lighten up a little bit.

I'm amazed someone would think this would even be remotely funny. Not sure what's worse, if writing the article or promoting it through blogs all over the place. I'd say both.
