 Genghis Khan had a pet hawk that knocked a goblet out of his hand multiple times when he went to fill it at a lake to drink. Eventually, he got mad enough that he killed his hawk and looked in the lake, only to see a poisonous snake in the water. Only then did he realize his hawk was trying to protect him, and he wept.
Much of the poor-quality bread European peasants ate were tainted with a fungus called Ergot. Eating Ergot can lead to intense burning in the limbs (later dubbed Saint Anthony's Fire), gangrene, and  hallucinations ; Ergot was the original source from which LSD was first isolated. Normally the peasants would throw out the fungus-ridden bread, but if the harvest was bad or if they were poor enough to not be able to refuse anything thrown to them, they settled for bread infected with the Ergot. Many believe that the Great Fear of France was fueled by peasants hopped up on Ergot-infected bread.
Publius Vedius Pollio was a friend of Roman emperor Augustus and loved fish. He loved them so much that he had a big pool full of moray eels and lampreys trained to eat slaves who were thrown in there. One time, he was dining with Augustus, and a slave cracked a cup and Publius ordered the slave to be thrown to the eels. Augustus got pissed at Publius and spared the slave's life and smashed the rest of his cups and goblets in front of him. When Publius died, he was considered "a man who in general had done nothing deserving of remembrance, as he was sprung from freedmen, belonged to the knights, and had performed no brilliant deeds; but he had become very famous for his wealth and for his cruelty, so that he has even gained a place in history."
