An abbreviation meaning "Rapid Onset Terminal Stupidity" is when a person dies or is badly hurt due to the consequences of doing something insanely stupid.
They aren't just terminally stupid, they're being stupid in a way that's going to get them killed quickly.
Either directly by their own action, or indirectly by doing something so stupid someone else cuts to the chase for them.
