History's Most Badass Deaths Episode 1: The Mystical Christian Alcoholic Sexual Predator Who Called the Russian Revolution: Grigory "Mad Monk" Rasputin
In our inaugural History's Most Badass Death Tournament, we pit three of the most legendary die hards: Rasputin, the Mad Monk, Captain Ed "Blackbeard" Teach, and 81 year old Puritan farmer and accused Salem witch Giles Corey against each other in a head - to head competition to determine who really pulled off the manliest death in history. Warning: You'll learn a little about the Russian Revolution, the Golden Age of Piracy, and the Salem Witch Trials along the way.
Legend has it that Rasputin's aristocratic enemies poisoned, shot, stabbed, slashed, beat, castrated and drowned the Mad Monk, and that he prophesied that his murder would bring on the fall of the Czar's imperial rule. Learn the facts behind the legend.
