Attila the Hun:

One of the most notorious villains in history, Attila's army had conquered all of Asia by 450 AD--from Mongolia to the edge of the Russian Empire--by destroying villages and pillaging the countryside.

How he died: He got a nosebleed on his wedding night

In 453 AD, Attila married a young girl named Ildico. Despite his reputation for ferocity on the battlefield, he tended to eat and drink lightly during large banquets. On his wedding night, however, he really cut loose, gorging himself on food and drink. Sometime during the night he suffered a nosebleed, but was too drunk to notice. He drowned in his own blood and was found dead the next morning.

----

n Detroit, a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to retrieve his car keys.

------

The following mind-boggling attempt at a crime spree in Washington, DC appeared to be the robber's first (and last), due to his lack of a previous record of violence and his terminally stupid choices:
1. His target was H&J Leather & Firearms ; A gun shop specializing in handguns.
2. The shop was full of customers - firearms customers.
3. To enter the shop, the robber had to step around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door.
4. A uniformed officer was standing at the counter, having coffee before work.
Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol.The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, the police officer with a 9mm Glock 17, the clerk with a 50 Desert Eagle, assisted by several customers who also drew their guns and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one else was hurt in the exchange of fire.

Overzealous zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt (Paderborn, Germany) fed his constipated elephant Stefan 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged- up pachyderm finally let it fly, and suffocated the keeper under 200 pounds of poop!
Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded on him."The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock and lay unconscious as the elephant continued to evacuate his bowels on top of him" said flabbergasted Paderborn police detective Erik Dern. With no one there to help him, he lay under all that dung for at least an hour before a watchman came along, and during that time he suffocated. It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves... "# happens"

This reminds me of when my boyfriend was watching a show about some weird ways people have died. He told me that one lady was on the run from the authorities (for some reason, can't remember). She decided to "hide" underwater in small pond. They found her washed up either hours or days later.

Her body was completely drained of blood from the leeches in the pond.

Now THAT sux!!!

There is this one, I probably have not remembered it correctly and for all I know it could be an internet myth... If fact it almost definatly is.

Any who, depressed guy wants to take his own life,,, He want's to be very sure it all goes to plan, he wants to hang him self by throwing him self off a cliff - (for some reason I also think he want's to set him self on fire??) But not wanting to have a slow death strangling on the end of a rope he decides to simultaneity SHOOT HIM SELF IN THE HEAD!

So he takes the dive, fires the gun... The bullet missed his head, severed the rope and stnt him plummeting into the sea... Still alive and now in real danger of drowning he is eventually pulled from the sea by fishermen... He is taken to hospital where he see's the light, he no longer wants to end it all - HE WANTS TO LIVE!

3 days later he died of complications and pnunomia or something


Now wouldn't that be a class story if it turned out to be true??

The show 1,000 ways to die had some pretty crazy ways to die.

Some examples from the show:

Deep Fried

A man with anger issues is fired from his job in a metal workshop. When he confronts the foreman, he is knocked into a vat of hydrochloric acid.

Gorgeous Gorge

A bulimic model binges, and her stomach ruptures before she can purge.

Re-Tired

A porn addict inflating a truck tire is distracted by a pornographic magazine. He is killed by shrapnel from the metal tire rim when the tire explodes from over-inflation.

Botoxicated

A woman, desperate to get rid of her wrinkles, hires an inexperienced doctor to administer botox in her home. The man unknowingly injects pure botulism into her face, resulting in intense pain and paralysis. While lying in a hot tub to relax, the woman's entire body becomes paralyzed and she drowns.

Choke-A-Lot

Two dim-witted men play by throwing cocoa powder at each other in a confined room. The powder impairs the alveoli in their lungs and they are asphyxiated.

Sex Ray

A man is having an x-ray of his head taken when the doctor and nurse begin having sexual intercourse in the control room. They accidentally hit the exposure button repeatedly while having sex, eventually giving the patient a lethal dose of radiation.

Here is a link that gives a summary of each episode.

"According to the caption: "This unfortunate woman was found dead on parkland in Yorkshire, England. She's believed to have been pierced by a shaft of frozen urine which had fallen from a leak in a toilet facility of an overhead plane.""

Killed in the park by a shaft of urine that leaked out of an airplane bathroom. It was so cold up that high the urine froze and formed a spear and fell to the ground only to go into this poor woman in the park.

Death by pee Lance. What a stinky way to go.

The Darwin Awards

www.darwinawards.com...


(March 1989, South Carolina) Michael Anderson Godwin was a lucky murderer whose death sentence had been commuted to life in prison. Ironically, he was sitting on the metal toilet in his cell and attempting to fix the TV set when he bit down on a live wire and electrocuted himself.


Great books. I remember reading one about Belgians playing a dare game. One guy cut his arm off with a chainsaw so his friend bettered him ... by cutting his head off!!!

There is always the army guy giving a lecture on land mines... He get's around to the tank mine, he has been using this particular visual aid for years... He explains the construction and mechanism for this particuler mine... About how it requires the weight of a vehicle to detonate it, and of course how the average person walking across it will not trigger it!

Without further ado (and as he has done in ever other lecture for the past few years) he lay's it on the floor and jumps on it... 30 people in the classroom - 2 at the back survive
- I wish I could verify some of these.

THis happened in a rural area of my county. Two teens acquired some dynamite. They decided to blow up the dumpter at the zippy mart. They lit the dynamite, than ran. Then they waited. And waited. And waited. And waited.

One of them decided the fuse had blown out. So the minute he looked into the dumpster...it blew up.

I heard the paramedics were up in a tree with tweezers picking out his body parts.

Ouch.

A couple were having a violent argument in the kitchen.

All went well with no one hurt till they started throwing flour at each other.

The resulting flour dust cloud was ignited by a flame on the stove.

The explosion of the flour dust destroyed the supporting walls around the kitchen dropping the second floor of the home on top of the couple and the fire from the still burning stove finished the job.
