Summary
If you've been looking for a compilation of stupid, comical deaths from throughout history, look no further. Disastrous Deaths is the set of books for you. Find out just how these unfortunate people met their sorry ends... Were they taken out by an awful accident? Maybe they had a run-in with some atrocious animals. Were they foiled by their own blundering bodies? Perhaps some frightful food was the reason for their demise. No matter the cause of death, you'll be left hoping that you don't go the same way.
