But for adventurers who are drawn to Everest, the mountain’s top is a lifelong dream that inspires intense preparation and a deep sense of reverence. Personally I just could never get a thrill from seriously risking my life on dangerous adventures I would not last 5 mins 🙈🤣🤣

While she driving, the scarf got caught to tire or to somehing spinning fast, then she gets decapitated. It was a pretty much traumatic yet bizzare event for us because i went couple times to the go-kart area where this incident occured.

In1943 when the Italian train thing happened the Conductor asked the Station Manager what should they do with all the bodies of the accident? The Manager replied, " well, I DO know a guy who owns a really big crematorium... id have to see if he is busy?" Having only 500 people on the train is really not the worse thing that could have happened? A few years earlier and there would sadly have been 5 or 6 times that many onboard? And the Buddhist monk who self-immolated, in Vietnam ,horrified the onlookers, but 20 minutes later they were ready for seconds......

Smoke from the low grade coal rather than carbon monoxide because the low grade coal created toxic smoke which killed them before the carbon monoxide reached them. A Sargent of the Confederate side of the US Civil War who's last name was Grace was the Sharpshooter (how snipers were referred to during the US Civil War) who shot Union General Sedgwick above the right eye rather than in the cheek. Love the 1812 Overture over the story about exploding toilets. Yukio Mashima committed ritual suicide, he's best known as the author of The Temple Of The Golden Pavilion.
