1. The last photo of Chiang Kai-shek before his death
This photograph, taken on July 23, 1973, was the last photograph Chiang Kai-shek left before his death.
If not, would you have thought that this was an arranged, posed photo?
In fact, Chiang Kai-shek's hands in the photo are firmly tied to the chair handles with duct tape.
Chiang Kai-shek in the photo obviously looks full of energy, why is he still tied with tape, all this has to start with the rumor that Chiang Kai-shek is critically ill.
During that time, there was always gossip that Chiang Kai-shek was critically ill and even died, and some people were ready to move, and the people were also panicked.
Although Chiang Kai-shek was not as seriously ill as rumored to be in the outside world, the actual situation was indeed hospitalized.
Because since an accidental car accident in 1969, Chiang Kai-shek's health has been far less strong than before.
Now I am also hospitalized, and it is very difficult to even go to the ground.
However, at this time, Chiang Kai-shek's grandson Jiang Xiaoyong's marriage was coming, and in Soong Meiling's opinion, it was time to break the rumors that he was critically ill.
Soong Meiling planned to arrange for Chiang Kai-shek to appear after the wedding, when Jiang Xiaoyong and his wife were toasting tea to their grandparents according to Xi customs.
The location was set at the Veterans General Hospital where Chiang Kai-shek was located, and after some arrangement, his grandson Jiang Xiaoyong brought his wife to serve tea.
This scene, under the careful arrangement of Soong Meiling, also filmed Chiang Kai-shek's energetic side.
Chiang Kai-shek was wearing a black gown and black leather shoes, while Soong Meiling was wearing a white cheongsam and white leather shoes, and both of them had smiles on their faces.
The photo also appeared in Taiwan's official newspaper, the Central Daily.
Chiang Kai-shek, who was sitting upright, did not show the slightest sickness, just because Soong Meiling had asked Chiang Kai-shek's hands to be tied to the chair with duct tape.
The wrists are just covered tightly by the wide cuffs, and everyone can't see any clues.
After this photo was made public, Chiang Kai-shek did not take any more photographs.
On the evening of April 4, 1975, the 88-year-old Chiang Kai-shek closed his eyes forever, and his story finally came to an end.
Second, the last photo of Princess Diana
The last photo of Princess Diana before her death turned out to be a paparazzi capture, just a little bit of Diana's golden hair.
The other two men in the photo show their faces, with Paul, the driver wearing glasses, grimacing at the camera, and the bodyguard in the passenger seat trying to block the paparazzi.
Who would have thought that just a few hours after the photo was taken, the car Diana was in was accidentally involved in a car accident, and Diana also died of her injuries in the car accident.
So how did this car crash tragedy happen?
It happened on August 31, 1997, in the early hours of the morning, Diana and her partner Dodi Fayyad left the hotel in a car.
I thought I was quietly avoiding the paparazzi, but I didn't expect to be photographed by the paparazzi.
The car behind was driving through the Alma Tunnel, but the driver lost control and crashed into the wall of the Alma Bridge Tunnel while evading the paparazzi's tracking.
After the accident, it was learned that it was an urban expressway with two underground floors and six lanes in both directions, with a speed limit of 50 kilometers per hour.
But Diana's car was speeding up at 105 kilometers per hour to avoid the paparazzi in the tunnel.
And so tragedy struck, and both Diana and Dodi were pronounced dead at the scene.
Diana, who died in a car accident, died at the age of 36, and the world mourned the death of the beloved princess.
Her funeral took place at Westminster Abbey in London on September 6, 1997, and was attended by thousands of people.
After the funeral, Diana's resting place was chosen on a small island in the Spencer family's maiden estate.
Diana slept in a lead coffin weighing 635 pounds, on a small island surrounded by water, away from the hustle and bustle.
That's probably what she wants.
During her lifetime, Diana was the youngest daughter of Earl Edward Spencer and the first wife of Prince Charles.
In 1981, Diana married Prince Charles and had two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.
She is beautiful and kind, passionate about philanthropy, and concerned about social issues.
She has worked for several charitable organizations and has been actively involved in many activities related to HIV/AIDS, homelessness and child rights.
Such a people-friendly image also earned her the title of "People's Princess".
Diana is gone, but people will not forget the kindness she brings.
3. The last photo of Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn Monroe in this photo is still beautiful and moving, who would have thought that less than a month after this shooting, Marilyn Monroe would die.
On August 5, 1962, it was the private doctor who first discovered that Marilyn Monroe had died in her bedroom.
Marilyn Monroe was lying face down on the bed under the quilt, lifeless. Then the police arrived at the scene, but after a series of checks, the possibility of homicide was ruled out.
After an inquest and an autopsy, officials gave Monroe's cause of death as acute barbiturate poisoning. In layman's terms, it is death caused by an overdose of sleeping pills.
At this point, the empty sleeping pill bottle in the room can also be verified from the side. However, many people really can't imagine that the sexy and beautiful Marilyn Monroe left in such a way.
In fact, what everyone doesn't know is that Monroe suffered from a language disorder as a girl, and suffered from depression and other mental illnesses as an adult.
It's all about the shadow of being violated as a child and three failed marriages.
We only see Marilyn Monroe shining on the screen after becoming famous, but we don't know that her mental state is good and bad.
However, there is some public opinion behind that Monroe's death was because she was involved in the shady scenes of the Kennedy family and political circles. Because then President Kennedy was assassinated.
It wasn't until 44 years after Marilyn Monroe's death that historians saw some of the FBI's declassified documents, which were classified as top secret.
It is mentioned that Marilyn Monroe had a "secret diary" that recorded most of the "pillow conversations" with the Kennedy brothers.
The strange thing is that on the night of Monroe's "suicide", her diary also mysteriously disappeared from then on, so it is also said that Marilyn Monroe's death is related to this diary.
The cause of Marilyn Monroe's death is a mystery, but that doesn't stop her from being synonymous with beauty and sexiness.
In 1945, 19-year-old Marilyn Monroe signed with the Blue Book modeling agency and began her modeling career. After that, the magazine quickly became popular on the East Coast.
In 1946, Marilyn Monroe began to make her mark in the film industry. Marilyn Monroe's filmography is still unforgettable.
In "The Seven Year Itch", the moment when her white dress was blown by the wind became a classic shot in the history of cinema.
Her acting talent has been widely recognized, and her beauty and charm have also made her a goddess in the hearts of countless men.
Marilyn Monroe's beauty, sensuality, and acting skills have made her a symbol of an era, may she rest in peace in heaven.
IV. The last photograph of Feradimir Ilyich Lenin
This black-and-white photograph was the last of Lenin's lifetime and was taken in May 1923.
It can be seen that Lenin is paralyzed in a wheelchair, and at this time he has been completely paralyzed on the right side due to a stroke, and he can't even speak, but fortunately his mind is still very clear.
The photo was not easy to shoot either, with the doctor and Anna behind him, and Lenin in a wheelchair.
Sadly, eight months later, Lenin died of illness.
Lenin, whose full name is Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, was one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. He was born in 1870, the third of his family, and his older brother and sister were revolutionaries.
Influenced by the family atmosphere, Lenin became the founder of the world's first socialist state and the world's first proletarian ruling party.
He successfully led the October Socialist Revolution in Russia, transforming socialism from a scientific theory into a great practice.
He studied Marxism in depth and combined it with the realities of Russia to create Leninism.
Lenin was not only a great revolutionary, but also an outstanding statesman and theoretician.
His books, such as Imperialism as the Highest Stage of Capitalism, and The State and Revolution, are still widely studied and read today.
It can be said that his whole life was devoted to the cause of the emancipation of the proletariat and the working people.
But Lenin in his later years was not in good health. In May 1922, after Lenin's first stroke, he was partially paralyzed on his right side and began to reduce his government activities.
After a second stroke in December of the same year, he was forced to cease his political activities and hand over power to the "troika" headed by Stalin.
Lenin's health continued to deteriorate, he lost his ability to speak and write, and was dependent on paramedics. Despite his poor health in his later years, Lenin continued to work and continued to fight for the cause of socialism.
On January 21, 1924, Lenin died of a stroke in the village of Gorky at the age of 54.
