A lot of ancient philosophers died in pretty weird ways.

Like Empedocles who died jumping in a Volcano to prove that...uh, he was God or something?.

Or Pythagoras who died after being chased by soldiers and refusing to enter a field of beans, because then he would be reincarnated as bean. What is so bad about being a bean, anyway?

Or Heraclitus who died after burying himself in dung to cure himself of dropsy. Medicine was a little more primitive back then.

And then there is of course Chrysippus, who died of laughter after watching a donkey try to eat figs. Comedy was also more primitive back then, remember they didn't have YouTube.
