Today, we're exploring the sassy and morbid world of famous assassinations. Buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy, yet oddly amusing ride through history! First stop, Julius Caesar. Betrayed by his buddies in the senate; talk about a backstabbing - quite literally! Moving on, Abraham Lincoln. The drama in Ford's Theatre was real folks, and unfortunately, so was John Wilkes Booth's aim. Fast forward to Archduke Franz Ferdinand – whose assassination was basically a string of tragicomic errors that somehow succeeded on the second try. And no, it wasn't a Monty Python sketch!

Quick Tip:

Fun Fact: Did you know Julius Caesar's last words were not 'Et tu, Brute?' Historians believe he actually said nothing, which is quite the silent treatment, right?
