Henry Ziegland a crezut ca a fentat soarta. In 1883 s-a despartit de prietena sa, care din deprimare s-a sinucis. Fratele fetei, coplesit de furie, l-a urmarit pe Ziegland si l-a impuscat. Apoi fratele s-a sinucis si el. Doar ca Ziegland nu era mort, glontul i-a sters fata si s-a oprit in copac. Multi ani mai tarziu, Ziegland s-a decis sa taie copacul in care s-a oprit glontul, doar ca n-a reusit sa o faca prin lovituri cu toporul. A pus astfel dinamita si a vrut sa-l arunce in aer. In urma exploziei, glontul a zburat din copac si l-a lovit in cap! Ziegland a murit pe loc.
Henry Ziegland thought he had dodged fate. In 1883, he broke off a relationship with his girlfriend who, out of distress, committed suicide. The girl's brother was so enraged that he hunted down Ziegland and shot him. The brother, believing he had killed Ziegland, then turned his gun on himself and took his own life. But Ziegland had not been killed. The bullet, in fact, had only grazed his face and then lodged in a tree. Ziegland surely thought himself a lucky man. Some years later, however, Ziegland decided to cut down the large tree, which still had the bullet in it. The task seemed so formidable that he decided to blow it up with a few sticks of dynamite. The explosion propelled the bullet into Ziegland's head, killing him.
