Hoarders: Buried Alive
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-y ... e-gallery-1.1187698
Brothers Homer and Langley Collyer would have been excellent candidates for a modern-day hoarding show. The two obsessively collected junk and even created booby-traps to protect their prized possessions from intruders. One day in 1947, Langley accidentally set off one of his own booby traps while crawling through a tunnel of newspapers to bring food to his paralyzed brother. He died instantly, and Homer died of starvation a few days later. It took police nearly two weeks to uncover Langley’s body after removing 100 tons of garbage from the house.

Throughout history, people have gone to extreme measures to protest against things they disagree with. However, most wouldn’t consider David Phyall’s level of protest. The last hold out in a block of flats set to be demolished in Bishopstoke, England, he took his own head off with a chainsaw to protest the injustice of being forced to move out.
