Death by Safe
Although Jack Daniel’s death certificate only lists “blood poisoning from operation,” the full story of the famous distiller’s death is a bit unusual. Apparently in frustration in not being able to open his safe, he kicked it, injuring his toe. The resulting infection was responsible for his death. The deadly safe is on display in Jack Daniel’s distillery in Lynchburg.

They have a replica of the safe on the mobile distillery tour truck. With a full sized statue of Jasper Newton Daniel standing next to it. Man he was a small man.
