I'm a pilot and I'm novoting this -- the tone is too smarmy for me. These are people falling to earth and getting maimed or killed (usually not even doing particularly Darwinesque things).
I won't give my opinion on all of the clips (unless you're really interested) but I will say that the second one appears to be a not-uncommon approach and landing on the incredibly challenging Runway 13 at the now-defunct Kai Tak airport.
The last one, though, unlike the others, *is* a total Darwin award; the asshole Air Force pilot had a reputation for being a cowboy and had long sworn that he would manage to roll a B-52 heavy bomber before he retired. Unfortunately he took his crew with him when he augered in.
