These deaths are very interesting...


  1. Austrian Hans Steininger is famous for having the longest mustache in the world at 1.4 meters. One day in 1567, a fire broke out in the city where he lived. Hans also forgot to tidy his mustache while running away. While running, he stepped on his mustache and lost his balance and fell. While rolling, he broke his neck and died.
  2. Christine Chubbuck is the first news anchor to commit suicide live on air. On July 15, 1974, eight minutes after the live broadcast started, the young presenter said, "As a policy of Channel 40 to bring the most current news to the screen, you will watch another one: A suicide attempt," and he put the gun on his waist to his head and pulled the trigger.
  3. American comedian Dick Shawn criticized his colleagues during his laughter-filled show. Fans applauded wildly as Shawn fell to the floor of the stage while saying, "I never lie down for my job." When Shawn did not get up after 10 minutes of continuous applause, the security guards who came to him realized that he was dead.
  4. Bobby Leach is the second person in the world to jump over Niagara Falls in a barrel. Apart from this jump, he also has other death-defying attempts. The death of such a brave person is quite ironic. One day, while walking along a New Zealand street, Leach slipped and fell when he stepped on an orange peel, breaking his leg. It was such a bad fracture that the leg had to be amputated. The brave man died after a while due to diseases caused by the fracture.
  5. Swedish King Adolf Frederick was known for his sweet tooth. The Swedish king, who is famous for saying "Let my death be at the dinner table, not in the battle arena", got what he wanted. The king, who suffered from indigestion, passed away in 1771, at the age of 61, five minutes after finishing caviar, carrot soup, herring, shrimp fritters, 10 glasses of champagne and 14 portions of dessert.
  6. The Russian Grigori Rasputin, a master of Sufism, was the first to escape from cyanide, which was strong enough to poison ten people. Seeing that he was still alive, his killers shot him four times. Rasputin, who survived this shooting, was thrown into the sea by his murderers and they got rid of him.
  7. Chinese poet Li Po is considered the best poet in China's literary world. The poet is also known for his fondness for liquor. He wrote his best poems while drunk. One night, while Li Po was sailing on a raft on the Yangtze River, he fell into the river and drowned when he tried to embrace the reflection of the moon on the water.
  8. Australian wildlife expert Steve Irwin was called the "Crocodile Hunter". Irwin died after a stingray shot its stinger into his chest while working on a documentary film in the Great Barrier Reef.
  9. American screenwriter Tennessee Williams died by swallowing the cap of a bottle while drinking alcohol in a hotel room in 1983.
  10. American Cleveland Indians' legendary player Ray Chapman lost his life when a baseball hit him during the game and shattered his skull.
