Professional writer, tough guy, and Lou Ferrigno lookalike Eugene Izzi was getting ready for his next work of crime fiction to hit bookstores when he was found dead. Who found him? Not one person, but thousands of citizens of Chicago -- on December 6, 1996, holiday shoppers looked up in horror to see Izzi's body hanging by a noose from the window of his downtown writing office like a morbid Christmas decoration.

The cops ruled it a suicide, but something doesn't make sense: If you wanted to kill yourself, why would you put on a bulletproof vest?

In addition to the vest, a loaded gun was in the office, and stuffed into Izzi's pockets were a set of brass knuckles, $481, a Mace-like spray, some printed notes, and three computer disks containing a work-in-progress novel. On the one hand, we're guessing his death was swift thanks to all that shit weighing down his pants. On the other hand, what the hell?

Oddly enough, the biggest clue was in the most innocuous object: Those notes were transcripts of threatening phone calls he'd been getting. At the time of his death, Izzi was researching an Indiana white supremacist paramilitary group that he planned to expose in his next book, and it turns out that those guys don't like it so much when you do that. Izzi felt threatened enough to move into a hotel away from his family and carry a gun on him at all times.

At one point, he let a friend listen to his voice mail, and one call in particular stands out: A woman left a message saying he would be hanging by the end of the year. So, uh, there's that.

However, the cops also pointed out that Izzi's death was eerily similar to a scene in his unfinished novel, right down to the bulletproof vest and brass knuckles. Did he give out advance copies to the militiamen and inspire them? Or was this some kind of viral publicity? He did manage to release three books after his death, so maybe he's actually living somewhere in Europe with Tupac and Elvis.

6 Mysterious Deaths That'll Make You Believe in Conspiracies | Cracked.com

I've got one, about a couple months back I had to get a vaccination for hep b.
I remember dazing off to the right and thinking "why haven't I felt the jab yet? He mustn't of given me the shot."
I look to my left arm and he's actually got it in all the way, proceeding to remove the needle and do the clean up.
Curious, whatever.
Now for the mysterious bit: over the next week I don't feel the dead arm in my left arm, but my right.
Didn't even cotton on until the day I removed the bandaid, looking for it on the right, but finding it on the left.

Explain what you mean by dead arm? Clearly you must have had nervous function in order to move it. Like "pins and needles"/falling asleep in the wrong arm?

Humblebrag: After going through 6 months of medical testing where I was getting my blood drawn several times a week, I decided to overcome my fear of pain and needles (which were inevitable at this point) and now stare, intently, at every single needle as it punctures through my flesh vessel and injects its contents into my veins. It actually has become rather satisfying. But hey, maybe I'm gay.

One of the prouder achievements of my life, not only no fear of needles, no fear of visualizing them.

I stopped being afraid of needles before the first pube sprouted on my nutsack.

I always watch the needle go in and out. I try to see how fast I can get the blood out.

Fairly confident that if I sliced my wrists I would bleed out quite quickly.

Haha yeah I usually watch it too, not sure why I chucked an astronaut this time. Kudos for overcoming dat aversion.

But yeah I meant dead arm as in, a sensation of pain when moving said arm.
I've had these lingering pains for days after getting vaccinations before, or after taking solid punches to the arm (high school, n'est pas?).
It's strangely pleasurable.

And to Richter, how do you even control how fast you spurt blood out?
Is this some warrior monk trick you learn after these ones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-wuOYlxMSY ?

Nice, it's good to have the "do ghosts exist" question finally answered definitively.
