I love insane people. Also, he's the reason Arthur, the man who never wanted to, or should been, president, became president.

It's amazing how this one guy changed the entire course of history at the age of 23 while I just sit here shitposting at the same age.
This is why you don't attempt regicide
>On 5 January 1757, as the King was entering his carriage at the Palace of Versailles, Damiens rushed past the King's bodyguards and stabbed him with a penknife, inflicting only a slight wound. He made no attempt to escape, and was apprehended at once. Louis XV's thick winter clothes were protective, and the knife penetrated less than half an inch into his chest. The writer Voltaire described the wound as "fortunately scarcely more significant than a pinprick".[4]
Nevertheless, Louis was bleeding and called for a confessor to be brought to him, as he feared he might die; when the Queen ran to Louis' side, he asked forgiveness for his numerous affairs.
>e was tortured first with red-hot pincers; the hand with which he had held the knife during the attempted assassination was burned using sulphur; molten wax, molten lead, and boiling oil were poured into his wounds. He was then remanded to the royal executioner, Charles Henri Sanson, who harnessed horses to his arms and legs to be dismembered. But Damiens' limbs did not separate easily: the officiants ordered Sanson to cut Damiens' joints with an axe. Once Damiens was dismembered, to the applause of the crowd, his reportedly still-living torso was burnt at the stake.[7]

It's amazing how an unfired round killed anybody
Are there any examples of really famous, successful assassins? I'm not talking about Oswalds or Booths, but rather "professional" assassins.
I'd think this would be a difficult topic to explore, considering you'd probably not record that kind of stuff, but I'm just wondering.
There's a cool interview of a Saudi executioner out on YouTube, and how he comes to terms with his job, but that's not really an assassin.

He was just in the right place at the right time with the right intent to murder a statesman.
You could do it too, just like Oswald.

That's a weird mix of hilarious and horrifying.
Jack the Ripper; cause in Star Trek episode 43 you find out he's not actually a human but an alien that's still alive. I mean Captain Kirk ends putting him in the transporter and disperses his atoms accross space but still... It's hard to believe that that won't happen for another couple hundred years. Just don't tell your grand children to live on Rigel 4.
