Darwin Awards VI - Copper Almost Gets Them Again

Why is it stupid people seem to be so attracted to copper? Is it a special form of magnetism? Up in WV -

Forty-eight hours after two men went into an inactive Massey Energy mine in Eastern Kanawha County, allegedly to steal copper, they found their own way out Thursday evening.

A Massey security guard stationed at the hole alerted sheriff’s deputies
after he spotted the men, who were apprehended after a short foot chase,
Rutherford said.

The sheriff said the men would be charged with conspiracy to
commit grand larceny and attempted grand larceny.
