Answer: He died of laughter after seeing his drunken donkey eating figs

Chrysippus was a 3 BC Greek philosopher who was one-time head of the school of stoics. One well-known story says that he died of laughter after feeding his drunken donkey several figs.

Moreover, the person whom this anecdote stems from (Diogenes Laertius) actually gives another account of Chrysippus's death, saying that he simply died from drinking too much wine himself.

From Quiz The Incredible Edible Egg

Answer: Oviparous

Oviparous creatures do not have the demands placed on them that are required during the development of the embryo. Once the eggs are laid, there is no more physiological investment from the mother, other than to guard and defend the nest and its eggs. Ovoviviparous creatures produce eggs that hatch within the mother's body. Oviform simply means shaped like an egg. Viviparous creatures give birth to living offspring that develop within the uterus of the mother. (Question and additional information supplied by moonraker 2)

Answer: By stuffing a fowl with snow

Perhaps I'm misrepresenting Bacon in this question. He wasn't madly stuffing a fowl because he'd lost his marbles.

Bacon's promotion of the acquisition of knowledge through sensory experience - known as empiricism - was an important stepping stone away from the basing of knowledge on blind faith.
