http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_deaths#21st_century - Overall some funny ones


FTA:
"2008: Gerald Mellin, a U.K. businessman, committed suicide by tying one end of a rope around his neck and the other to a tree. He then hopped into his Aston Martin DB7 and drove down a main road in Swansea until the rope decapitated him. He supposedly did this as an act of revenge against his ex-wife for leaving him"

I also suggest clicking through some names or related cases:

"Dan Bucci, 19, consumed psychedelic mushrooms, made suicidal threats on IRC, vandalized his neighborhood nude and with a knife, before attacking a police officer in his car, who fatally shot him."

They have some interesting stories/ descriptions.

2009: Diana Durre, of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chambers,_Nebraska - Chambers, Nebraska , died after a 75-foot Taco Bell sign fell on top of the truck cab she was in. The pole broke at a welded joint about 15-feet above the ground due to strong winds. The sign fell right on top of the quad-cab pickup. Diana, was meeting a Wyoming couple to sell them some dogs. Officials said they agreed to meet in North Platte, Nebraska about 1 p.m., “right underneath the big Taco Bell sign.”


edit- I read that as "sell them some drugs".

The guy who cut off his own head with a chainsaw was the most hardcore suicide I have ever heard of. The rope and driving is number 2.

I read in a local newspaper last summer that a guy was parking his lawn tractor in his shed, when he somehow struck his head on the doorway and knocked himself unconscious, and died of carbon monoxide poisoning.

"2001: Gregory Biggs, a homeless man in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Worth,_Texas - Fort Worth, Texas , was struck by a car being driven by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chante_Jawan_Mallard - Chante Jawan Mallard , who had been drinking and taking drugs that night. Biggs' torso became lodged in Mallard's windshield with severe but not immediately fatal injuries. Mallard drove home and left the car in her garage with Biggs still lodged in her car's windshield. She repeatedly visited Biggs and even apologized for hitting him. Biggs died of his injuries several hours later. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_deaths#cite_note-108 - [109] Chante Mallard was tried and convicted for murder in this case and received a 50 year prison sentence. The film http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuck_%282007_film%29 - Stuck is loosely based on this unusual death."

I remember seeing a CSI Vegas episode about this one.

I actually heard of a guy who tried to get at the insides of a hand grenade with a chainsaw. you can guess what the result was.

i call shenanigans, even though i may be wrong i don't think i am

grenades are activated when the fuse is lit. you can beat the crap out of C4 (which is what i'm positive is inside grenades) until you get so tired you don't care anymore. you can even light it on fire and it will burn but not explode. it needs the fuse from the grenade to go off for the grenade to explode. i don't think cutting it with a chain saw or a hack saw would have much effect other than cutting it in two

Compound B is the explosive within the M67 frag grenade, GI.

Another strange death I remembered, I think we had a thread about this years ago...

Two drunk guys driving home from a bar, the passenger leans out of the truck to vomit, and the driver gets a little too close to a telephone pole, and the passenger gets decapitated by a support wire. Driver is too drunk to realize, and drives the rest of the way home.

EDIT: http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2004-08-30-drunk-driving_x.htm - found a link

1871: Clement Vallandigham, U.S. Congressman and political opponent of Abraham Lincoln died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound suffered in court while representing the defendant in a murder case. Demonstrating how the murder victim could have inadvertently shot himself, the gun, which Vallandigham believed to be unloaded, discharged and mortally wounded him. His demonstration was successful, however; the defendant was acquitted.

thats one hell of a lawyer ^^^

1916: Grigori Rasputin, Russian mystic, was reportedly poisoned while dining with a political enemy, shot in the head, shot three more times, bludgeoned, and then thrown into a frozen river. When his body washed ashore, an autopsy showed the cause of death to be hypothermia. However, there is now some doubt about the credibility of this account. Another account said that he was poisoned, shot, stabbed at which time he got up and ran off and was later found to have drowned in a frozen river.
