* In 1898 Empress Elisabeth, better known as ''Sisi/Sissi'', of Austria was stabbed by Luigi Lucheni, who pretended to have simply fallen against her. She didn't realize it at first and made it back to her hotel (losing consciousness several times) before her companion noticed a brown stain on her chest. They only realized what had actually happened after she was already dead. Although the needle file used in the stabbing had penetrated her heart, the pressure from her corset slowed the process of her bleeding out. It's believed that she might have survived or lived longer had they not removed the corset when trying to determine what had happened.
