1967. The last official duel in France. Marseille Mayor Gaston Deffer (facing us) and Socialist Party presidential candidate Rene Ribier met on swords. The reason for the duel was Deffer's remark during Ribiera's speech: Taisez-vous, abruti! (Shut up, you fool!) Deffer refused to apologize and then Ribier challenged him to a duel.
The next day, the presidential candidate was to have a wedding and the mayor of Marseille promised to spoil his wedding night. And so it happened. 57-year-old Deffer wounded Riviera twice with a sword, after which the duel was stopped.

Found each other
Back in 1895, when the automobile industry was still in its infancy, there were only two cars in the entire state of Ohio.
And so it was until these two cars somehow found each other on an area of 88,000 square miles and collided, thus reducing the total number of cars in Ohio to zero.
