Nah, he posted the dropped credit card story a few weeks back IIRC.

 

Well possibly, but I didn't see that or don't remember it (see other things I don't remember for even a few hours in the jokes thread...:P) and in any event his link here is to that story not this one so it's still incorrect for the current posting.

Ultimately I was hoping for a correction so I could read about the unfortunate golfer.

It was here - at least I assume it's the same incident.  Can't help with the other one, sorry.

Wang Long, a steel factory worker in China jumped into a blast furnace and died after discovering he lost more than $9,000 on the stock market.

With the name Wang Long you’d think he had something else to live for...

Woman Gets Stuck and Dies in Charity Bin While Dumpster Diving

A woman was found dead inside a charity bin in Queensland, Australia on Monday after she became trapped in the opening mechanism while “dumpster diving” for donated items, according to authorities.

The 43-year-old woman’s body was discovered by a member of the public who was dropping off clothes outside a shopping centre in Burleigh Heads just after 7AM. She was dangling “half in, half out” of the bin.

Police believe the lid to the chute dropped down while she was reaching into the bin, wedging her there—although the exact cause of death is as yet unconfirmed. It is not being treated as suspicious.

Interesting in as much as this could well be me at some point:

 

Norway death: Police ask how Oslo man's body lay in flat for nine years.

Police in Norway have asked how a man's body could have lain in his flat for nine years after he is believed to have died.

The man had been in his 60s and no-one reported him missing, police told Norwegian broadcaster NRK.

Probably could have laid still another 9 years if undisturbed.

Italian actress Luana D'Orazio dead at age 22.

The young woman, known from the 2018 comedy film Se son rose was crushed to death in a textile factory. A horrible way to die and far too young.

Being an extra in a movie does not make "an actress" out of you. 

And no one knows that movie here.

It doesn't get more freak than this..

 

Woman killed mowing the lawn by aircraft landing.

 

Canada of course. 

 

"Police couldn't say if the aircraft was for skydiving or if it was a small, private plane."

 

In which case one wonders if they are exclusively employing blind policemen in Canada.

Here's a picture of the plane.

Used for skydiving? Sure, maybe in Narnia.
