On July 9, 1993, Toronto lawyer Garry Hoy was doing his favorite party trick

On July 9, 1993, Toronto lawyer Garry Hoy was doing his favorite party trick: hurling himself at his office's windows to show their strength. But this time, his stunt failed. In 1993, lawyer Garry Hoy fell 24 floors to his death while demonstrating the tensile strength of his office windows to a group of visiting law students. Far from being an unusual incident, body-checking window safety was his signature - and fatal - move. See the photos and go inside the shocking full story — Hoy's regular practice of hurling himself at window panels in front of onlookers and harmlessly bouncing off ended disastrously when it accidentally popped the glass out of its frame and sent "one of the best and brightest" lawyers plunging from the skyscraper. Garry Hoy was fascinated by the physical robustness of modern architecture. So much so, that he regularly performed a party trick in which he would throw his full bodyweight against the windows of his office building to prove just how...

A Woman identified as Matilda and her sister, have both been arrested for allegedly k*lling a businessman, Emem Etim Marley in Ajah, Lagos.

Prisoner Joe Arridy, who had an IQ of 46, gives his toy train to another prisoner before he is executed for a terrible crime he did not commit, 1939

Prisoner Joe Arridy, who had an IQ of 46, gives his toy train to another prisoner before he is executed for a terrible crime he did not commit, 1939 Joe Arridy was a man who lived in Pueblo, Colorado and his parents were Syrian. While growing up, Joe displayed signs that he was severely intellectually disabled. He began to talk a lot later than the average toddler and he could not form long sentences, instead he spoke a few words at a time. In psychology, this can be a sign that cognitive capabilites in a child are low, which means problem solving, counting, understanding basic concepts and knowing right from wrong will often be very challenging for that individual. Joe attended one year of elementary school before being pulled out as it was too difficult for him. Joe's father then admitted him to the State Home. Joe lived here on and off for a few years. It was also reported that Joe was mistreated and often beaten by the local neighbourhood kids. Joe, at the age of 21, left Puebl...

"Bubble Boy" 40 years later: Look back at heartbreaking case

 "Bubble Boy" 40 years later: Look back at heartbreaking case David Vetter "Bubble Boy" spent his entire life in a bubble, he suffered from severe combined immunodeficiency, and eventually died at the age of 12. David Phillip Vetter (September 21, 1971 – February 22, 1984)[1] was an American boy who was a prominent sufferer of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), a hereditary disease which dramatically weakens the immune system. Individuals born with SCID are abnormally susceptible to infections, and exposure to typically innocuous pathogens can be fatal. Vetter was referred to as "David, the bubble boy" by the media, as a reference to the complex containment system used as part of the management of his SCID. Vetter's surname was not revealed to the general public until 10 years after his death in order to preserve his family's privacy. In his first years of life he lived mostly at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston, Texas. As he grew old...

“Waste of husbands money”: social media descends heavily on a lady who got married with 19 bridesmaid”

Waste Of Husband’s Money: Social Media React To Lady Who Got Married With 19 Bridesmaids At Her Wedding. It’s not a secret that most Ghanaians love to spend huge cash on weddings and marriage ceremonies. They love to organize very big marital ceremonies to the extent that they can even go for loans to achieve the dream of having a lavish wedding. An image spotted on social media captured a lady who summoned nineteen bridesmaids at her wedding and many social media users were not very pleased with her choice of wedding. Some described the woman as opportunistic since she was not the one funding the wedding. They explained that the woman should have considered her man’s bank account and try to help him save money instead of funding 19 bridesmaid including other lavish expenses. Whereas other people simply loved the idea of what the lady did and prayed to have such a beautiful wedding when it’s their time because they believed the couple had the financial muscles to pull off such a weddin...

The scold's Bridle was a torture device used during medival times on women

The scold's Bridle was a torture device used during medival times on women accused of talking too much which was then fear to be the work of the devil A scold's bridle, sometimes called a witch's bridle, a brank's bridle, or simply branks, was an instrument of punishment, as a form of torture and public humiliation. The device was an iron muzzle in an iron framework that enclosed the head (although some bridles were masks that depicted suffering). A bridle-bit (or curb-plate), about 2 in × 1 in (5.1 cm × 2.5 cm) in size, was slid into the mouth and pressed down on top of the tongue as a compress. This prevented speaking and resulted in many unpleasant side effects for the wearer, including excessive salivation and fatigue in the mouth. First recorded in Scotland in 1567, the branks were also used in England and its colonies. The kirk-sessions and barony courts in Scotland inflicted the contraption mostly on female transgressors and women considered to be rude...

Gaetana’s revenge: 23 children victims of superstition in Italy at the end of the 19th century

Gaetana’s revenge: 23 children victims of superstition in Italy at the end of the 19th century Gaetana Stimoli, of Aderno, Sicily, was the architect of the killing of 23 children. Her style was to lure the unsuspecting children to her home with the promise of treats, once she had convinced her victims, the innocent children would go to her home and she would give them some wine with traces of undiluted phosphoric acids, which is incredibly poisonous to the human body. The unsuspecting victims would then be sent back home, but just before they would get to their respective homes, they would suffer excruciating bodily pain which led to the inevitability of death. Stimoli was believed to have lost two children of her own and she believed that their deaths was as a result of some sort of bewitchment. Therefore in order to achieve some form of karmic balance in her mind, Stimoli sought to take the lives of other children to avenge hers. This occurred in the late 19th century, when witchcraf...

Abraham Lincoln’s Top Hat: The Inside Story

Abraham Lincoln’s Top Hat: The Inside Story In August 1864 president Lincoln lost his hat when his horse was startled by a loud noise. The hat was received later with a "bullet hole through the crown." The loud noise was an assassination attempt by unknown sniper Abraham Lincoln was our tallest president. At 6-foot-4, he would stand out even today, and he certainly towered over the men and women of his era. The top hat he habitually wore in public made him taller still. You couldn’t miss him in a crowd. The 16th president wore the top hat in war and peace, on the stump and in Washington, on occasions formal and informal. He wore it the night he was assassinated. Likely a descendant of the 17th-century steeple, or sugarloaf, hat, which was in turn influenced by the headgear worn by soldiers, the top hat gained in popularity until, by the early 1800s, says Debbie Henderson in her book The Top Hat: An Illustrated History, “it had become the irrepressible symbol of prestige and a...
