Description

A vegetarian killed by a frozen leg of lamb. A burglar who fell headfirst into a toilet and drowned. These cautionary tales about the undignified ways you can die are ALL TRUE

Accidents happen. Luck runs out. Yes, death can strike at any time--and sometimes in the most bizarre ways. This collection chronicles hundreds of the craziest true stories the authors could verify, from the cyclist who swallowed his own dentures to the rogue who ignored warnings about overhead cables . . . and suffered a highly charged demise.
