Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

The 7 kg bomb was hidden in a bag on a bicycle parked next to the road that the assassins knew Herrhausen would be traveling in his three-car convoy. The bomb was detonated when Herrhausen's car interrupted a beam of infrared light as it passed the bicycle. The bomb targeted the most vulnerable area of Herrhausen's car – the door where he was sitting – and required split-second timing to overcome the car's special armour plating.

17-year-old mass murderer Daniel Scholeer aka Het Monster van Elverdinge in Steenstraat 4/6, Elverdinge, West-Vlaanderen, Belgium. Afterwards Scholeer said "They were good people, but so old-fashioned. I wasn't even allowed to be a rally pilot or a rock singer like Elvis Presley. And actually, I wanted to make the world a better place." In his room a list was found with 80 names of people he planned to kill.
