Thank you! Well I couldn't help myself, after reading an article in THE SCIENTIST about a protein named after Lord Darcy from Pride and Prejudice. XD

Nuh, we never get any TV shows about hat makers in the 1800's (weren't they all constantly drugged from some sort of glue or something they used? I believe I read this was the reason for the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland? Something like that, anyhow.), we only get shitty "documentaries" discussing whether vampires are real or not. ACTUALLY DISCUSSING. And having fake interviews with Bram Stoker and goodness knows whom else. What has our television come to? :I

This came from a TV show called a Thousand Ways to Die. This is about a hat maker who dies from slowly getting mercury poison into his system throughout his years and becomes insane as a result.

The show is mostly humorous and funny because you often see idiots and scumbags get what they deserve in the most ironic and cruel ways, but mind you. Most of these deaths are quite gory and downright nasty. So you have been warned right now.

Despite this though, this is a somewhat educational show as a lot of these deaths portrayed in the show are based on real life deaths of real life people. (Though the names have been for the most part changed unless they are very historical deaths. A quick look on wikipedia shows you links of the names of people who actually died deaths a lot like the ones on the show. Some of them even netting the Darwin Award. Also note they portray them with different personalities instead of the real deal personalities of the people who have actually died the deaths shown on the show. )
