Award Winners of 1998

I choose to take a look further back in time. I choose 1998. I looked at 11 Award winners, with the most votes.
Of those 11 Winners,

• 6 came from America: California, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Massachusetts, Illinois, Chicago  
• 1 from Canada
• 1 from Australia
• 1 from Indonesia
• 1 from Argentina
• 1 from Texas  

Half of the Winners came from America in 1998. Who knows why this is? Maybe, it's because they have a bigger population than other countries, or maybe they are just very good at dying accidentally in a very funny way. For example, two guys from California decided to go up Mammoth Mountain at 3 am in the morning, walking past the Ski lifts they noticed the Orange padding that is around the posts of the ski lifts, they realized that they didn't want to walk back down so instead they took the padding and carried it up to the top, to slide down on it. What a great idea. Half way down they lost control of their self made sledge and drove directly into the post they took the padding off. Guys the padding was there for a reason.
