Founding fathers Thomas Jefferson (left) and John Adams (right), alternately close friends and bitter rivals across their intertwined political careers, died on the same day — July 4, 1826 — the 50th anniversary of American independence, of which these two men were chief architects.

At around 6 p.m. on that fateful day, Adams, unaware that Jefferson had died just after noon, uttered his final words: "Thomas Jefferson survives."


You can google them up for verification if in doubt.

Cheers.

Depending on your perspective, Violet Jessop is either the luckiest or unluckiest women to ever live.

As a stewardess and a nurse, she was aboard the HMS Olympic when it collided with the HMS Hawke; she was on the HMHS Britannic when it struck a mine at sea, and she was aboard the RMS Titanic (above) when it famously hit an iceberg -- sinking the unsinkable ship.

The three ships were “sister ships” and Jessop survived all three encounters, earning her the nickname “Miss Unsinkable”.


Lalasticlala, Mynd44 are your girlfriends "unsinkable"? I know say Seun own dey "unsinkable" (Na joke o )

The year before John Wilkes Booth killed Abraham Lincoln, Booth's brother, Edwin (left), saved the life of Lincoln's son, Robert Todd (right), when the latter was about to fall onto train tracks in Washington, D.C.

South African astronomer Danie du Toit gave a lecture on how death can strike anyone, at any time. Upon the completion of his lecture, du Toit popped a mint into his mouth. It slid into the back of his throat, causing him to choke to death on the spot.

After his sister’s suicide, a man vowed revenge on Harry Ziegland, the suitor who had broken his sister’s heart, prompting her to take her life. The brother shot at Ziegland, who fell to the ground. Believing his task done, the brother shot and killed himself with the same gun.

However, the bullet meant for Ziegland did not strike him. Instead, it lodged itself into a nearby tree.

Three years later, Ziegland was working to clear that same location and used dynamite to remove the tree. The explosion sent the bullet flying -- striking and killing Ziegland.

World War I began with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. The license plate of the car in which he was riding at the time of his death (above) was AIII 118. WWI officially ended on Armistice Day: 11/11/18.

In the midst of World War I, the British army converted the passenger ship RMS Carmania (right) into a battleship. To avoid enemy fire, it was disguised to look like the German ship SMS Trafalgar (left). In 1914, the Carmania sank a German ship off of the coast of Brazil. The sunken ship was the Trafalgar, which had been disguised to look like the British Carmania.

Henri Tragne of Marseille, France participated in five duels from 1861 to 1878. He won the first four without firing a shot, as all four men suddenly died of natural causes. In his fifth duel, it was Tragne himself who dropped dead, before anyone had the chance to fire their gun.

After finding a copy of Jack Frost and Other Stories in a 1920s Paris bookshop, children’s author Anne Parrish told her husband about how much she had loved the book as a child. When he opened the book, the couple found the following inscription: “Anne Parrish, 209 N. Weber Street, Colorado Springs.”

Author Mark Twain was born in 1835, a year that Halley’s Comet was visible from the Earth, a phenomenon that occurs just once every 76 years. The day after the next appearance of the comet, in 1910, Twain died.

Perhaps this alone is not a huge coincidence, but the year before his death, Twain had actually predicted (and hoped for) this very outcome, stating “I came in with Halley’s Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don’t go out with Halley’s Comet.”

Adolf Hitler was born 129 years after Napoleon Bonaparte. Hitler’s rise to power took place 129 years after Napoleon's; he invaded Russia 129 years after Napoleon, and he was ultimately defeated 129 years after the defeat of Napoleon.

On February 13, 1746, a Frenchman named Jean Marie Dubarry was executed for the murder of his father. Exactly 100 years later — to the day — an unrelated man also named Jean Marie Dubarry was put to death. His crime? Patricide.

In 1974, a taxi in Bermuda struck a man riding his and killed him. Exactly one year later, the man’s brother died while driving the very same moped -- after he had been struck by the same taxi driver, carrying the same passenger, on the same street where his brother perished.

Edgar Allan Poe had but one novel published: The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, released in 1838. The novel tells of a doomed Antarctic journey in which four shipwrecked crewmen decide to eat cabin boy Richard Parker in order to survive.

In 1884, four crewmembers survived the ship wreckage of a vessel named the Mignonette. The survivors decided to eat their cabin boy in order to live. As fate would have it, that cabin boy's name was Richard Parker.

Nice compilation bro and it deserves FP

Joseph Figlock was walking down a Detroit street in the 1930s, minding his own business, when a baby fell from a fourth floor window straight onto his head. A year later, the same child fell from the same window, again landing on Figlock. Luckily, in both cases, Figlock and the infant survived their unexpected meetings.

A pair of twins separated at birth went on to live remarkably similar lives.

Both were given the name James by their adoptive parents. Both grew up to become a police officer and marry a woman named Linda. Both gave their sons the same name (spelled slightly differently): James Allan and James Alan. Both men’s families had a dog named Toy. And both divorced their first wife and then married a woman named Betty.

These two guys dey burst my head any time I remember them. Very close friends and rivals, being significant members of the Declaration of Independence Committe and political rivals, but would never do things that will be affect their nation. The fact that they died on the same day makes their story more intriguing.

President buhari was elected as the fourth president in the fourth republic and at his fourth attempt.

A novel that predicted the Titanic's destiny, and another ship that almost followed

Morgan Robertson, in 1898, wrote "Futility". It described the maiden voyage of a transatlantic luxury liner named the Titan. Although it was touted as being unsinkable, it strikes an iceberg and sinks with much loss of life. In 1912 the Titanic, a transatlantic luxury liner widely touted as unsinkable strikes an iceberg and sinks with great loss of life on her maiden voyage. In the Book, the Month of the Wreck was April, same as in the real event. There were 3,000 passengers on the book; in reality, 2,207. In the Book, there were 24 Lifeboats; in reality, 20.
Months after the Titanic sank, a tramp steamer was traveling through the foggy Atlantic with only a young boy on watch. It came into his head that it had been thereabouts that the Titanic had sunk, and he was suddenly terrified by the thought of the name of his ship - the Titanian. Panic-stricken, he sounded the warning. The ship stopped, just in time: a huge iceberg loomed out of the fog directly in their path. The Titanian was saved.

Twins brothers, same heart attack

John and Arthur Mowforth were twins who lived about 80 miles apart in Great Britain. On the evening of May 22, 1975, both fell severely ill from chest pains. The families of both men were completely unaware of the other's illness. Both men were rushed to separate hospitals at approximately the same time. And both died of heart attacks shortly after arrival. (Source: Chronogenetics: The Inheretance of Biological Time, Luigi Gedda and Gianni Brenci)
