This guy was an Athenian lawmaker who was a hard-ass. In Athens, to show respect, it was customary to cover someone in clothing, and they overdid it and he died.

There is a video of this on YouTube (honest). You can tell he was afraid to jump, but his handlers kept telling him it was too late to back out.
So all the way down, when he knew he was going to die, at least he had the satisfaction of being able to yell "I told you so!"
