1. Walter Hallas, a 26-
year-old store clerk in
Leeds, England was so
afraid of dentists that
in 1979 he asked a
fellow worker to try to
cure his toothache by
punching him in the jaw.
The punch caused
Hallas to fall down,
hitting his head, and he
died of a fractured skull.
2. George Schwartz,
owner of a factory in
Providence, RI narrowly
escaped death when a
1983 blast flattened his
factory except for one
wall. After treatment
for minor injuries, he
returned to the scene
to search for his files.
The remaining wall then
collapsed on him, killing
him instantly.
3. Depressed since he
couldn't find a job, 42-
year-old Romolo Ribolla
sat in his kitchen near
Pisa, Italy with a gun in
his hand, threatening to
kill himself in 1981. His
wife pleaded for him
not to do it, and after
about an hour, he burst
into tears and threw
the gun to the floor. It
went off and killed his
wife.
4. In 1983, a Mrs. Carson
of Lake Kushaqua, N.Y.
was laid out in her
coffin, presumed dead
of heart disease. As
mourners watched, she
suddenly sat up. Her
daughter dropped dead
of fright.

1. A man hit by a car in
New York City in 1977
got up injured, but laid
back down in front of
the car when a
bystander told him to
pretend he was hurt so
he could collect
insurance money. The
car then rolled forward
and crushed him to
death.
2. Surprised while burgling
a house in Antwerp,
Belgium, a thief fled out
the back door,
clambered over a nine-
foot wall, dropped
down, and found
himself in the city
prison.
3. In 1976, a 22-year-old
Irishman, Bob Finnegan,
was crossing the busy
Falls Road in Belfast,
when he was struck by
a taxi and flung over its
roof. The taxi drove
away and as Finnegan
lay stunned in the road,
another car ran into
him, rolling him into the
gutter. It too drove on.
As a knot of gawkers
gathered to examine
the magnetic Irishman,
a delivery van plowed
through the crowd,
leaving in its wake 3
injured bystanders, and
an even more battered
Bob Finnegan. When a
fourth vehicle came
along, the crowd wisely
scattered and only one
person was hit -- Bob
Finnegan. In the space
of two minutes,
Finnegan suffered
fractured skull, broken
pelvis, broken leg, and
other assorted injuries.

Thieves who raided an
expensive clothes shop
in Rome stood still and
pretended to be
mannequins when the
police arrived - and they
nearly got away with it.
The three raiders, aged
78, 70 and 55, broke
into the fashion store
at 4am and were busy
throwing designer
brands and leather
handbags into sacks
when the police arrived.
As officers fanned out,
the raiders, dubbed the
"grandpa thieves",
stood among a group of
storefront dummies
and remained immobile.
The were not seen at
first and police thought
they had fled from the
store, in Via Piave in the
Sallustiano area of the
capital.

Only a small movement
by one gave the game
away. The three, who
were carrying lock-
picking devices and
were known to the
police, were charged
with aggravated theft
and carrying tools for
breaking and entering.

A London company has
started selling
makeovers to the
deceased.
With prices starting at
450 British pounds ($
740 U.S. dollars), the
“Final Act of Self-
Expression” makeover
package will apply
eyeshadow, fake
eyelashes, and even
hair highlights to
corpses.
So how do you market
to the dead? Partner
with undertakers, of
course! The “Final Act
of Self-Expression” is a
joint venture between a
cosmetics company,
Illamasqua, and a
popular chain of London
undertakers, Leverton
and Sons,
