Top Five Most Unusual Deaths

If ever you're going to die right now, in what way would you want it to be?

I'm going to show you the top five most unusual deaths from ancient to modern times. I have also placed my own comment on each because I was a bit amazed when I saw them.

  1. Carl McCunn (March 1981)

    A wildlife photographer who paid a pilot to drop him off in the Alaskan wilderness to photograph the nature's beauty. However, he was not able to pay the pilot to pick him up. So, he was all alone there and one time his supplies ran-off. To eliminate the difficulty experiencing, he shot himself.

    Plan your journeys well!
  2. Lee Seung Seop (August 2005)

    A 28-year-old South Korean a video games addict. He collapsed due to fatigue and passed away after playing Starcraft for almost 50 hours straight in a internet cafe. He died of severe exhaustion and dehydration that lead to cardiac arrest or heart failure.

    Avid video gamers, beware!
  3. Alex Mitchell (March 1975)

    A 50 year-old English, died due to fatal hilarity. By that time, he and his wife were watching The Goodies and he laughed uncontrollably for almost 25 minutes straight. He just then fell of the sofa and died due to heart failure. After his death, his wife wrote a letter to The Goodies, thanking them for making her husband's final moments happy.

    Laughter is the best medicine? Not quite.
  4. Isadora Duncan (September 1927)

    An American dancer. Not very popular in the U.S., but she entertained throughout Europe. She simply died when the scarves she's wearing were caught in the wheel of while riding in his lover's car. She died of strangulation and her neck broke. Wear simple clothes next time!
  5. Aeschylus (458 B.C.)

    Aeschylus, a famous Greek playwright, died after and eagle dropped a tortoise on his bald head. The logic was that the eagle thought his head was a stone, wanting to kill the live tortoise by dropping it. Unfortunately, the so-called "stone" died which is Aeschylus and the tortoise lived.

That's gotta hurt!

"Having worked in the medical profession for well-over 20 years
as a nurse and having experienced near-death/my own ,TWICE,
(once,recently,at the hands of an MD ),I believe that
medically-induced comas can be more of a benefit.
(Some IV MANNITOL,perhaps...).No one really relishes
the ultimate phrase,"Good-Bye";doesn't it sound more appealing
to utter,"Good-Night,See You,Later..."
