Inspiration can hit without warning, and it's sometimes hard to pin down what spawns an idea. Unfortunately for one family in New Jersey this is not one those cases, as the resulting animation is based on a true story.

In a fit of stupidity that would soon be honored with a Darwin Award, a father challenged his son to stab him during a fight about chocolate cake icing. The ten-year-old gladly obliged and killed his dad with a five-inch kitchen knife.

Make sure your last words aren't "Would you believe the kid did that?" too!
