Has there ever been any historical figures that slipped and died on a banana peel?

...

It would be really funny

Dying through a bunch of anonymous guys on the internet.

Everything about this guy's life is funny. He had a dwarf companion and later an island of dwarfs. He died of holding his pee in too long because he was being polite.

anyone else think something like this would be a great death? at a later age of course, it's over quickly, and it's funny so people don't mourn as much and even your death is noteworthy

> In the second account, he was watching a donkey eat some figs and cried out: "Now give the donkey a drink of pure wine to wash down the figs", whereupon he died in a fit of laughter.

A stoic who seems genuinely likable, the fuck?
