    Or even himself - he asked his friend to test the vest for him

    If someone said - I've got this new design of parachute - care to test it for me...

    Careful, it might be Horace Slughorn - he was live.

    Point of order though - if the dead person has had children then the story should not be permissible as a Darwin story. There is no reference to anything like 'the father of 2' in this case so it's valid.
