Sometimes accidents seem so ridiculous that, it would seem that avoiding them was not difficult, unfortunate even a little precaution and sanity. But is it this is? Maybe all the same, such sayings are not born from scratch, like “you won’t run away from fate”, or “who is destined to hang himself, that’s not will drown “?
The British adopted a painful death in the pantry
As a retired woman, 63-year-old Briton Elizabeth Isherwood has a past in the summer I rented a house for myself in the hotel complex Plas Talgarth, what is located in North Wales without even knowing what all it will end.

One night she went to the toilet, but accidentally got into the pantry – and at that moment the door from the draft slams behind it. Moreover the handle with constipation breaks for some absurdity as soon as a woman trying to break out of the trap.
Then the former police officer removes shelves in the pantry and begins to disassemble the brickwork of the wall. But here she befalls failure – it stumbles upon a partition (at least so Elizabeth seemed, although in reality it was just hanging from that side of the wall is a massive picture – and salvation was like that close).
However, Isherwood decides to try his luck from the other side. pantry and starts punching the wall in the opposite direction, stumbles on a drainpipe and inadvertently damages it – gushed into the pantry cold water.
Almost completely undressed, haggard and drenched cold water, an elderly woman dies of hypothermia through two days. All this time, Elizabeth cried out for help. And here is what surprisingly, the housemate heard these screams, knocks, but … didn’t they mean.
Death by ridiculous carelessness

Since her ridiculous death is connected with a car, it’s worth immediately clarify that the machines played in the life of this woman some mystical role. Suffice it to say that in 1913 in in a car accident in Paris, her two children died along with governess – Renault somehow mysteriously fell into the Seine. Moreover, Isadora herself constantly got into an accident, although here everything seems to be it was very clear – she madly loved a fast ride “without any rules. “It was no coincidence that many of her friends prophesied her death in car accident.

In Nice, September 14, 1927 for Isadora her new boyfriend, as they say now, drove her boyfriend Benoit Falketto, which, being the owner of the prestigious Helvetia garage, drove around in a chic Amilcar CGSS sports two-seater. By the way, Duncan’s friend Mary Desti, having felt something was amiss, in every possible way dissuaded Isadora from this evening walk by car, she literally ran behind Duncan to the very door of the hotel, begging to return. But Isadora exclaimed: “Even if I knew that it if it was my last trip, I would go crazy anyway Nice racing because you’re in love again! ”

But she was not destined to even leave the hotel. Sitting in car, Duncan ignored the long end of her red a scarf that hung down to the ground. As soon as the car started, this end fell into the spokes of the rear wheel (yes, at that while car wheels were still on the spokes), Benoit gave the gas – and the scarf quickly wound around the wheel, almost instantly broke Isadora’s neck. All this tragedy was observed by Mary Desti, in the last a moment she understood what was about to happen, screamed terribly, but her no one has heard. And in the next moment of the great American the dancer is gone …

The title picture shows the “dance of death” – more than 400 the inhabitants of Strasbourg in 1518 did not drink for several days, did not eat and didn’t even sleep, but only danced and danced, without any joy, praying to God for mercy – to complete exhaustion and some monstrous of death. What it was – no one really knows until now, however, how here you can’t believe that ridiculous deaths do not happen by accident, since a person, as Woland noted from M. Bulgakov’s novel “Master and Margarita, “can’t vouch even for his tomorrow. To one can quite add to this without making a mistake at all – even for the next moment …
