Franz Ferdinand’s death led to World War I. He was assassinated, yet it took multiple tries. He was in a parade driving in the back of the seat. Men with pistols and bombs tried to kill him while he strolled down the street. However, everyone had failed to kill Ferdinand. They killed people on the street watching the parade instead. Later, he went to get in his car to see those who were injured. His driver had taken a wrong turn, and there was one of the men that had tried to kill him earlier. Ferdinand and his wife were shot June 28, 1914.
Before this day, Ferdinand asked to borrow a car from bicycle manufacturers. This car was also considered to be cursed. It’s a dark blue color, but they say it’s blood red because of all the accidents. This car is extremely unsafe and many were injured or killed when they drove this type of car. Many think the car is to blame for their death. I believe the car had nothing to do with his death. Him and his wife were shot, and the car killed people because of accidents. I don’t think it was planned either. He asked to borrow the fancy car for the parade.
A few days before his death, he talked to many people. First, he talked to a fortune teller. This person had told Ferdinand that he would soon let loose of a World War. I believe these people when they tell me something about my life. However, they usually say something along the lines of you having a big event coming up. What the fortune teller told him was very specific. It’s hard for me to believe. He told some of his close friends that he was soon going to be murdered. If this was told before the parade, it’s hard to believe. However, if he told his friends after the parade and before he was on the way to the hospital, I can believe it.
Another reason Ferdinand was bound to die was due to an animal hunt. He killed a rare white stag. Many say if you kill this animal, you or one of your family members shall die within the year. He shot it in 1913. He has a total of killing 2,140 animal kills in a single day. His grand total is 272,439 animal kills in his lifetime. I don’t think that he could actually be assassinated because he killed so many animals. Also, I don’t think you could actually die because of a rare animal kill.
I think his death has something to do with his driver. Though there were no conspiracy theories with him, I believe it was planned somehow. When I think of all of these theories together, I think Ferdinand knew he was going to die. After he drove the cursed car, told several people, killed many animals and the rare animal, I think he was most likely bound to die.
Do you think Ferdinand was bound to die?
Do you think he knew he was going to die?
Do you believe these theories had anything to do with his death?

I think that it couldn't have been a coincidence that the driver made a wrong turn and right there was one of the men that tried to kill him earlier it is just improbable. I do think he knew he was going to die but he probably thought it was going to be from something else, not an assassination.
I believe that there is a lot of things that are just coincidence, but this many is almost unbelievable. I mean there were so many mistakes and so many things in the wrong place at the worng time that it is unexplainable how many things had to happen in order for him to get killed. I believe that he was bound to die, but I don't think he knew he was going to die.
The way that the story goes he almost had it coming the way the driver took a wrong turn and how all the terrerist missed there chance. He definetly didn't know he was going to die if he did he probably wouldn't have gotten in the car with that driver. and there is no way to prove that those therios have anything to do with his death.
I kinda think he was bound to die because there were multiple tries just to kill him and didn't happen until it finally did. I personally think he knew he was bound to die just because she was shot at a lot and then he did die because he was murdered.
I don't believe in the supernatural such as curses like killing the white stag. I do think it's quite the coincidence that all of these things happened though, especially the fortune teller. I have never heard that someone predicted he would spark a World War. It's especially weird that they used that phrasing, "World War," because that's what we call it.
I do think he was going to die. Especually with the attepmts people had trying to kill him. I think he knew he was going to die because he had to of known there was people trying to kill him and that one of these times he was gonna die.
I honestly think that he was bound to die, especially with all the attempts people had at killing him up until one succeeded. I also think that he had to of known or had an idea that he was going to die because he would have to have a some what idea that people were targeting him and it was just a matter of time till someone got him.
Thanks Laney! Be sure to reply back more. +6
I think that he would've known that he was going to be killed. People wanted him dead and it was just a matter of time until it actually happened. It's not uncommon for leaders or politicians to be threatened in some way. I'm sure that these theories might have something to do with his death but it all comes down to people that disliked him and wanted him dead.
I think he would have eventually been killed. I think he had some thought that he might be killed. I think almost every major political leader has to have some thought about being killed because it is something that has happened a lot in history and there are always people that do not like the leaders.
