Annie Edson Taylor
Annie Edson Taylor was the first person to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel and live. She said "even if it were with my last dying breath I would say that no one ought ever try that again" or something to that effect. She had a cat that went over first to test the barrel, and brought her lucky heart shaped pillow. I for some reason though that when people went over in barrels they could look out over the top. This is not the case. More horrifyingly, they were sealed in the barrel with enough air for several hours pumped in with a bicycle pump. Another guy tried it with his turtle and he suffocated because his barrel was stuck behind the falls. Worst way to die ever. The turtle survived. Going over the falls has a 25% mortality rate. Here are a couple podcasts that I recorded with Cash Levy when in Niagara Falls playing the buffalo Funnybone. ‪

Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich William Nietzsche (15 October 1844 – 25 August 1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, composer, poet, philologist, and Latin and Greek scholar whose work has exerted a profound influence on modern intellectual history. He began his career as a classical philologist before turning to philosophy. He became the youngest ever to hold the Chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel in 1869 at the age of 24. Nietzsche resigned in 1879 due to health problems that plagued him most of his life; he completed much of his core writing in the following decade. In 1889 at age 44, he suffered a collapse and afterward, a complete loss of his mental faculties. He lived his remaining years in the care of his mother until her death in 1897 and then with his sister Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche. Nietzsche died in 1900. ‪
