VSBfromH 74 Posted December 15, 2010 Robber dies after being impaled on fence for up to 3 days "A man has died after he was impaled on a fence for up to three days in freezing temperatures after an accident as he attempted to break into an empty warehouse. James Stewart, 33, is thought to have been part of a group who attempted to enter the former Norson Power site in Aberdeen’s Tullos industrial estate. Police believe Stewart, from Tayside, got a leg impaled on a fence at the rear of the yard. His body was eventually found by a member of the public on Sunday afternoon, sparking a police investigation. The site did not have any equipment in it after the workforce had relocated. It had last been checked by a member of staff on Thursday afternoon." Even though he was a wrong 'un, that's a terrible way to die, poor sod! And all for nothing...

Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted March 9, 2011 Porn actor gets his big sword out, then tosses himself off... Watch him toss himself to death "The pair described as the Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker of porn." I didn't realise 'annoying' and 'not funny' were attributes lacking in the porn industry. Porn and comedy do share something in common: It's all in the timing....know what I mean? Fantastic article about this murder and the associated scene here. Turns out that murder/suicides in the world of racially abusive hardcore pornography aren't all fun and games.

VSBfromH 74 Posted May 5, 2011 He died for his art "Colombian art student John Jairo Villamil has died after covering his head with a rubbish bag during a performance piece. He suffocated during a performance about his perception of his hometown Bogota. It involved him covering his head with a bag and placing his feet inside a bucket of water while holding a chain with bills in one hand and a leaf in the other. The 25-year-old’s audience at the Universidad del Bosque, in Colombia, thought his heavy breathing and convulsions were part of the performance and did not react."

Nikolai Shadrin was arrested after police located the apartment where he killed a 40-year-old Muscovite, Ilya Yegorov, in early May.

Toast 16,129 Posted July 1, 2011 Come to grief in the local swimming pool. Not sure the walk up business in that pool will be so good now this story has got around. State public health medical director Dr Lauren Smith said: "I want to reassure the public that, as disturbing as it is to you, there are no health risks associated with this." Is this the same country where they recently emptied an entire reservoir because somebody pissed in it? but a dead body in in a swimming pool for 2 days is OK? Two inspectors, who had stopped by the pool on Monday, have been placed on administrative leave. From the context I think this must mean "visited". Horrible English (or slack editing) from the BBC.
