Joshua Nimm, An Halo to us all.


Joshua Nimm, or as he will forever be remembered, An Halo, was an 11-year-old boy who became yet another video game-related casualty. He became an hero on 4th September, 2008. His death is sure to spark drama amongst concerned mothers everywhere, now claiming that playing video games can lead kids to become suicidal. Nimm's death was part of a Halo re-enactment. He was trying to recreate a suicide from the game, becoming an hero himself in the process.

While some argue it was a hoax or prank, the death has been confirmed.

The story was that Nimm was so hardcore into Halo that he decided to skip school for a day of gaming. Deciding he wanted moar than just the game, he tried to re-enact parts of it IRL. Instead of going for the high score as Master Chief does with aliens, Nimm tried to recreate a suicide from the game (can Master Chief even commit suicide via headshot?). He took the magazine out of the gun, but forgot to remove the round from the chamber. Seconds later, he was immortalized as An Halo to us all. WHERE IS YOUR CARDBOARD OVERSHIELD NOW!? Just make sure your GLASSES don't fall down when you put your supreme protection on. What a fuckin' noob that's minus one kill on your score, idiot.

It's stunning. The thought of losing my child accidentally or otherwise. I can't imagine.
