There's a viral trend going on over the internet called, "What did "Florida Man" do on your birthday?"
The question forms the basis of the "Florida Man Challenge."
The challenge started with a simple game: Google "Florida Man" and your birthday to find out what headline turns up.
For example, Florida Man July 15 turns up the headline, "A 71-year-old Florida man tied a gun to a weather balloon to fake his own murder, police say."
You may also find gems such as "A man in Florida woke up with a headache, only to discover his wife has shot him while he slept. He survived," or, "Police say Florida man climbs atop playground equipment at Clearwater Park, tells kids where babies come from."
And I couldn't forget the classic: "A Florida man was followed and then attacked by an angry squirrel." While there may not be a jaw-dropping "Florida Man" event every single day, they do add up.
