Mario sprints across planets the size of houses, gravity bending so he runs along their undersides, while a 70-piece orchestra plays music that swells as stars come into view. A platformer that accidentally felt like awe.

The Kanun of Lekë Dukagjini sets a precise cash tariff for murder, specifies which rooms of a house grant sanctuary, and has been cited in Albanian court defenses as recently as the 1990s.

He rode a full circuit around Caesar's tribunal chair in gleaming armor, then dismounted and threw his weapons at Caesar's feet. Six years later, after rotting in a Roman dungeon, Vercingetorix was strangled.

276 children died at Jonestown. The vat of Flavor Aid — not Kool-Aid — was found still full. Cyanide reached the bloodstream in under five minutes. Aerial photos showed bodies arranged in concentric rings.

Halsted invented modern surgical residency, the mastectomy, and rubber gloves while injecting cocaine daily — then morphine to cure the cocaine. Johns Hopkins never knew. Did his addiction sharpen him, or did he succeed despite it?

Fabio Casartelli died on Stage 15; the peloton rolled neutralized through Stage 16 the next morning, completing the course where he was killed — the race did not stop.

Ban Chao pacified the Tarim Basin for thirty years with an original force of thirty-six men, once torching an enemy camp at night to make outnumbered soldiers fight their way out. He died asking to go home.
