THE DEFINITIVE LIST OF THE MOST UNLIKELY & UNUSUAL DEATHS ALL THROUGH HISTORY
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Death is something that everybody has to face in life at some or the other point. Most people wish for a peaceful and painless death. A few people, however, hope to end this journey in a rage of audacious blaze. There are few who wish to leave the world with their boots still on. It’s better to face whatever comes! Most of us will be consumed by either old age or a heart failure…with the exception of these people. They died in the most bizarre and unbelievable way possible:
1) 455 BC: Aeschylus, the Athenian author was killed when a tortoise was dropped on his head by an eagle.
2) 1327: King Edward II of England was brutally murdered by a horn pushed through his anus. This was not the end. All of his insides were burnt by pushing a red hot iron inside him.
3) 1567: Hans Steininger, the burgomaster of Braunau, died after breaking his neck by tripping on his own 4.5ft long beard.
4) 1771: The King of Sweden, Adolf Frederick, ate himself to death by having one insanely big meal.
5) 1871: Clement Vallandigham, an Ohio lawyer shot himself accidentally trying to prove how the man he was defending instead of murdering could have shot himself. Vallandigham died from the wound but the defendant was proved innocent.
6) 1923: 5th Earl of Carnarvon, George Herbert, died after cutting open a mosquito bite shaving. He caught pneumonia as the wound got infected.
7) Actor Gareth Jones died while shooting scenes for a TV play. His character in the play dies of a heart attack. So did Jones!
8) 1979: Robert Williams, a factory worker at the Ford Motor Company became the first person ever to be killed by a robot. He was hit in the head by one of the arms of the factory machines.
9) 1993: A Toronto lawyer threw himself from the 24th floor of the Toronto-Dominion Centre trying to prove the visitors how indestructible it was. The window popped out of the place but never broke.
10) 2007: Bladder failure was the cause of the death of Jennifer Strange who participated in a promotional contest to win a Nintendo Wii, “Hold Your Wee for a Wii”.
11) 2009: Taylor Mitchell, a Canadian folk singer was killed by coyotes. This is strangely the only recorded case of dying from coyotes.
12) 2012: After winning a cockroach eating contest, Edward Archibold died of choking.
13) 2014: Oscar Otero Aguilar, a twenty year old shot himself accidentally in the head trying to click a selfie with a loaded gun.
Each one of these ended up making a name for a reason not many would have preferred to have done this way. However, they did walk away with a bang!
