While surfing the lovely Net for journal articles on the mother of modern dance, Isadora Duncan, I accidentally found this website that lists and describes the thirty strangest deaths in history.
It appears that Isadora was killed by her own trademark scarf that she loved to wear. Other notables include a Danish nobleman and astronomer, who died from holding his pee in, the DEATH OF A MAN AT A LIFEGUARD’S PARTY, and a death that happened on stage while telling a joke. How tragic.
This list is morbidly interesting. However, I think that the strangest and worst way to die is depicted in the picture posted above.
Now, THAT blows.

1. neatorama.com is a great website. I’ve read it daily for months.2. That picture of the elephant appears to be from the Weekly World News, available at grocery store checkout lines everywhere. It’s the best of the tabloids (I have a subscription), but it’s nothing but fake news and badly photoshopped images (no elephant could ever poop that much). The font of the caption and “Bizarre tragedy of the week” also give it away. So death by elephant dung probably hasn’t happened.
