#1 What are the chances of two people falling to their deaths in the same building four months apart? Sounds like a case for OSHAIS.

#3 Ahahha, no link whatsoever, but it reminds me of the infamous "frégates de Taiwan" scandal, a massive corruption case which involved the core of the french politicians, and was a perfect illustration of the general sleaziness and incomptence (though not to get backchich and bribes) of the french Enlightened Elites; lotsa others related affairs, from related arms deal to saudi arabia to the ongoing "de villepin" Clearstream silliness, all offshoots of that one...

Anyway, funniest part of this was there was quite a few incidental deaths, Sudden Suicide, Deplorable Domestic Accident,... both in Tapei and in Paris (taiwanese general, french engineer, french middleman,...)... and IIRC, four of them involved defenestrations...

As one investigator bitterly joked about in a french teevee political show a few years ago, the fact that the "signature" of the chinese/taiwanese triad involved in this convoluted web of corruption is to defenestrate its assassination targets - a way to mark their deed to all parties involved, yet remaining on the realm of "accidental death" - was just a coincidence.

#5 Could be worse - he could have shot himself in the back of the head - twice.

At least this way his family gets to claim accidental death insurance.

#6 Nuclear expert achieves half-life at 60 feet down. His family achieves Whole Life at 120 feet down.
