    He hardly died. They couldn't kill him. I remember being taught about him. They filled him with poison at first, then they got impatient and shot him. Then he got back up, so they strangled him. Then he got back up, so they shot him a few more times. Then he got back up, so they decided to tie him up and dump him in a frozen river. Incidentally, he managed to get back up and crawl around a bit. Only then did he die.

    He raked in the clunge. He was up to his shoulders in poon.

    Sounds like he was tough nut to crack...

    still wasn't he a combatent of the Ruso-Japanese war?

    EDIT: NVM according to wiki he was a monk sometimes nicknamed "the black monk" or "the mad monk".

    Not a general (doesn't even say he was on Wikipedia), and he was killed for very clear reasons: it was rumored that he was having and affair with the tsarina and her daughter. Needless to say that the nobles were pissed and so they killed him, though he hung on for quite a while, as Toast pointed out. He did forget to mention that Rasputin was also beaten severally with chains as well.

    Speaking of which, he actually managed to accomplish a lot for being born as a peasant in Siberia. He managed to make the Russian monarchy effectively puppets, dodged many assassination attempts, was a holy man, banged literally hundreds of women, etc. Not many people have pulled that off.

    Actually for once Toast is 100% right in everything he is saying about Rasputin.

    We should all inspire to be more like Rasputin.
