Here are 5 of the weirdest ways in history people have died.

Death By Lava Lamp

In the 1990's psychedelic Lava Lamps with those hypnotic blobs resurged in popularity. The blobs start to slowly bubble when they're warmed up, and that takes time. One man tried to speed up the process with a lame hack. He set the Lava Lamp on a hot stove where it exploded, impaling his heart with a glass shard.

Death By Beard

Hans Steininger was famous for having the world's longest beard. The Austrian mayor proudly flaunted his four-and-a-half-foot long wonder, tucking it into a pocket as he strolled along the boulevards. One night a fire broke out and in the commotion his beard fell out of his pocket. Hans tripped on his beard, fell down a flight of stairs, and broke his neck.

Death By Wedgie

During a fight, a young man thought he'd retaliate against his stepdad by giving him an "atomic wedgie," pulling the elastic of his stepdad's underwear up and over his head. The band got wrapped around his stepdad's neck and strangled him to death.

Death By Laughter

The Third Century Greek philosopher, Chrysippus came across a donkey eating figs. He got the bright idea to give the creature some wine to wash them down. The sight of the drunken donkey staggering about trying to eat figs gave Chrysippus such a fit of the giggles, he went into cardiac arrest and died.

Death By Coffin

When Henry Taylor, who was acting as a pallbearer at a funeral in 1872, tripped on a cemetery stone, the other pallbearers rushed to help. Unfortunately, he let go of the coffin, which fell onto poor Henry Taylor, killing him instantly.

Even if you're super careful, a drunken night or a cup of coffee that's too-hot can be anyone's ticket to the farm. The Grim Reaper never takes a day off, so it's good to have a back-up policy just in case. Bestow has life insurance plans that could cover your family for up to a million dollars.
