    Seen it plenty of times in real life and on TV. Gotta look good when you are tripping and falling in, LOL (seen that also)

    Less Darwin award worthy than chain-maille bikini 'clad' warriors (in heels, most likely) ... but that's just the old can of woms being reopened cheeky

    Oh yeah. been to a few formal parties around the pool area. One of the mens clubs I worked at had a pool area and I saw several girls trip and take a dive with heels on.

    All part of the master plan to get noticed.

    Completely normal and actually less dangerous than wearing them to cross a busy street. The truth is that there's really no safe place to wear high heels, and they're one of the major causes of injury in women, but when you want to be dressed to kill, you have to accept that the person who might be killed is yourself.

    Come to think of it a Darwin Awards theme would make an interesting rendering challenge.  Some would get pretty creative.

    One of many reasons I don't wear high heels of any kind. Can't take that chance, LOL. (Actually, I'm a slave to comfort not fashion. I hate anything that causes foot pain!)

    Which will turn a lot of men into likely Darwin Awards winners...

    Just remember - to win a Darwin Award doesn't necessarily mean killing yourself, it's about removing yourself from the gene pool by doing something stupid, so you can live as long as you make it impossible to reproduce.  And that means that if you're a guy and want to make sure you never get a Darwin Award, just make frequent donations to a sperm bank.

    I don't wear them either.  My wife would probably object, especially since I'm a 12W or 13 and she wears a 5 narrow.

    Actually, that sounds dangerous.

    My ex called em ankle breakers and rarely wore them; the look of relief on her face when she took them off made me realise why it was something she did rarely.

    ...say a lovely woman the other day walking down the street in high heels (wide not spiked ones) and she looked to be in total world of hurt.  The way she was walking, I felt if she kept wearing them she'd need hip surgery soon (and she wasn't very old).
