The Seven Dumbest Deaths in Recorded History (credits to http://www.crystalkiss.com/dumbest-deaths-in-history/)

1) Attila the Hun

One of the most notorious villains in history, Attila’s army had conquered all of Asia by 450 AD-from Mongolia to the edge of the Russian Empire-by destroying villages and pillaging the countryside.

How he died: He got a nosebleed on his wedding night.
In 453 AD, Attila married a young girl named Ildico. Despite his reputation for ferocity on the battlefield, he tended to eat and drink lightly during large banquets. On his wedding night, however, he really cut loose, gorging himself on food and drink. Sometime during the night he suffered a nosebleed, but was too drunk to notice. He drowned in his own blood and was found dead the next morning.

drowning in your own nose blood wtf??? and you'd think his wife Ildico would kinda notice and help him out there a little.

2) Tycho Brahe

An important Danish astronomer of the 16th century. His ground breaking research allowed Sir Isaac Newton to come up with the theory of gravity.

How he died: Didn’t get to the bathroom in time.
In the 16th century, it was considered an insult to leave a banquet table before the meal was over. Brahe, known to drink excessively, had a bladder condition-but failed to relieve himself before the banquet started. He made matters worse by drinking too much at dinner, and was too polite to ask to be excused. His bladder finally burst, killing him slowly and painfully over the next 11 days.

oh boy. how come someone as smart as this guy(impt astronomer, helped come up with theory of gravity) would die of something as dumb as a burst bladder. somemore take 11 days to die?!?! i used to think these old-time scientists were like how genius. now not as much.

3) Jerome Irving Rodale

Founding father of the organic food movement, creator of “Organic Farming and Gardening” magazine, and founder of Rodale Press, a major publishing corporation.

How he died: On the “Dick Cavett Show”, while discussing the benefits of organic foods. Rodale, who bragged “I’m going to live to be 100 unless I’m run down by a sugar-crazed taxi driver,” was only 72 when he appeared on the “Dick Cavett Show” in January 1971. Part way through the interview, he dropped dead in his chair. Cause of death: heart attack. The show was never aired.

LOLOLOL!! this one's my favourite! this should be EXACTLY what happens to all those braggers out there, who always think they are better than you, and what they believe in is better than what you believe in, and that they are more educated/knowledgeable/wiser than you. generally, people who sit in their high horses. go and die, we dont care that you dont drink KOI and only eat organic food and dont eat meat whatever.

4) Aeschylus

A Greek playwright back in 500 BC. Many historians consider him the father of Greek tragedies.

How he died: An eagle dropped a tortoise on his head. According to legend, eagles picked up tortoises and attempt to crack them open by dropping them on rocks. An eagle mistook Aeschylus’ head for a rock (he was bald) and dropped it on him instead.

this guy's so ancient. anyway, i always wondered how these sculpture artists knew how these ancient guys look like. i mean, the story says he was bald but in this sculpture he had hair leh. anyway i think this story cock one lah. where got so nonsense. if it's true, dunno how many millions of people die of being struck on the head by a turtle liao, considering how much more populated the world is now compared to last time.

The Most Bizarre Song Lyrics (credits to http://roadtickle.com/the-most-bizarre-song-lyrics/)

1) "Shine" by the Newsboys

The Newsboys were formed in 1985 in Australia and they have since become one of the best-selling Christian rock groups of all time.

“And try as you may
there is no way
to explain the kinda change
that would make an eskimo renounce fur
that would make a vegetarian barbeque hamster
unless you can trace this about-face to a certain sign”

what the hell is 'trace this about-face to a certain sign'??? .... what the hell is 'about-face'?

2) "Shake it Baby" by LL Cool J

LL Cool J began making music at the young age of 16 and has since become a very well known rapper. He has released 12 albums since 1985 and he has even broken into acting making himself a big presence in both music and film. He is one of the best MCs in the world.

"Yellow canary, tennis bracelet necklace, knahmsayin?
Three quarter black mink; shades, canaries in both ears
Knahmsayin? Black Phantom, triple black, with the oak wood
Gucci shoes, that’s how I play"

wl this kind, you see his pattern (huge muscles think he damn shuai) plus his name (LL COOL J?? like YY PRETTY C =DD self praise ttm) you know he CMI LIAO. the funniest part is how he keeps repeating 'knahmsayin' (which i take to mean 'know what im sayin') when we so obviously DONT, cuz you're not making any freakin sense, Cool J. in their own world leh this kinda ppl.

3) "I am the Walrus" by the Beatles

The Beatles was one of the most popular and successful rock groups in history. There are few rock bands who have left such a strong legacy behind and who continue to inspire new musicians.

"Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob"

seriously what do you expect from a song titled 'I Am the Walrus'?? i like the 2nd line though. you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long. (HAHAHAHAHAHA reminds me of some ppl ok shut up)

4) "I Like Your Hair" by Scotty Vanity

Scotty Vanity is a very talented musician having taught himself piano and keyboards at the age of 5. He was 15 when he released his first single “I Like You Hair.”

"Hey there, I like your hair
Who does your hair?
I wanna go there
Pshyeah, I like your hair
Who does your hair?
I wanna go there"

huh i think this one ok lehhh. it's just asking someone with nice hair who did his hair only what. at least i know what this guy's talking about.

5) "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" by Primus

Primus is a rock band that formed in the mid 1980s. They have a very diverse sound which allows them to really attract fans from a wide variety of genres.

"Wynona’s got herself a big brown beaver
and she shows it off to all her friends.
One day, you know, that beaver tried to leave her,
So she caged him up with cyclone fence.
Along came Lou with the old baboon
And said “Recognize that smell?”
“Smells like seven layers,
That beaver eats Taco Bell"

hahaha machiam lady gaga of the 80s. actually i understood everything until the last 2 lines. what's 'seven layers'? and so random the beaver eats Taco Bell..? =/
