There’s always the remarkable story of Rasputin’s death. He was an advisor to Nicholas II of Russia, and refused to die after being poisoned, shot, and beat.
“The would-be killers first gave the monk food and wine laced with cyanide, however, when Rasputin seemingly failed to respond to the poison, they shot him at close range and left him for dead. In spite of these murderous measures, Rasputin revived shortly thereafter and made an attempt to flee the palace grounds, only to be intercepted by his assailants who shot him again and viciously beat him. They then bound Rasputin, who was remarkably still alive, and threw him into the freezing Neva River. His battered body was found several days later and it was reported that there was water in his lungs, indicating that he finally died by drowning.”

I will also add, it’s pretty neat that Ernest Shackleton’s famed lost ship, the Endurance, was found 100 years to the day that Ernest was buried.
