Line 164:
* Believe it or not, the situation depicted in the page image (beaver killed by tree it cut down falling on it) actually happens occasionally.
* Chrysippus was a Greek philosopher who belonged to the school of thought known as [[The Stoic|Stoicism]]. He died of laughter.
* [[Harry Houdini]] was known to take heavy blows to the gut with little to no effect if he prepared properly. A sucker punch to the gut was what killed him.
** Even worse, Houdini was a very healthy man who stayed very fit. The sucker punch (which came from a guy who didn't know that Houdini had to prepare) caused his appendix (he had appendicitis, but refused to have it treated for days) to burst and the toxins contained within spread throughout his body. He was so healthy when this occurred that it took him ''days'' to die thus prolonging his suffering...
* [[Elvis Presley]], otherwise known as 'The King', died while taking a crap in a toilet... otherwise known as a 'Throne'.
