She was the passenger in an Amilcar CGSS, a small convertible 2 seater, popular at that time. Her long flowing scarf became entangled in the open-spoked wheels and wound around the axle, suddenly pulling her from the car and breaking her neck. It was very weird and unexpected. 😪

Her dancing was considered a bit "naughty" in her time!

Player #801622, her last words to friends before the car sped off were, "I'll see you in he'll." That is sad.

Ya know sometimes I just guess the weird answer, and WOW! it turns out to be right. As I'm a former dancer, I've heard her name before. What a tragic way to die. 😢

Gegs, my autocorrect is always sticking apostrophes into my words like "hell" and "were". And I usually discover it just AFTER I hit "send". I'm sure that was just an unintentional typo. Have mercy. It could happen to you. A famous quote says, "When given the choice between being right and being kind, choose kind."

Tragic way to die after a tragic life. she lost all 3 children at a very young age, two to drowning when their caretaker's car went into the Seine, and a third shortly after birth.

I think it's actually strangulation when it's accidental and strangled is when it's done with intent?
