8. Sherwood Anderson, the author of Winesburg, Ohio, was killed by a toothpick from a martini olive. He was suffering from abdominal pain while aboard a South American cruise in 1941, and he eventually died in a Panamanian hospital. His autopsy later revealed that he’d accidentally swallowed an olive toothpick that damaged his internal organs, leading to the infection that later killed him.
9. President John F. Kennedy, Brave New World author Aldous Huxley, and The Chronicles of Narnia author C.S. Lewis all passed away on the same day: November 22, 1963. It was a tragic day in the history of celebrities, that’s for sure.
10. The first people to be killed in space all happened on the same mission. Aboard theSoyuz-11 spacecraft in 1971, cosmonauts Georgi Dobrovolsky, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patsayev all died due to complications from depressurized re-entry. Since then, there have been no additional deaths outside of the Earth’s atmosphere.
