Franz Ferdinand

Franz Ferdinand

There were 6 assassins sent to kill Archduke Franz Ferdinand and 1 of them threw a bomb that exploded under the wrong car. When the assassination failed, the assassin took a cyanide pill and jumped into the river. The pill only induced vomiting and the river was only 13 cm deep, so he failed at killing himself too.
