"Protestant nobles rebelled against Ferdinand in May 1816 and proclaimed their resistance by throwing two of the Habsburg governors and a secretary out of the window of the royal castle in Prague, the seat of Bohemian government. The Catholic side claimed that their seemingly miraculous escape from death in the seventy-foot fall from the castle was due to the intercession of the Virgin Mary, while Protestants pointed out that they fell into a manure pile."
:D
Have a great day...I'm still chuckling to myself. :)
Haha! I thought it was funny too!
