Beethoven: his baton became tangled in his hair while conducting the premiere of his 9th Symphony but while violently yanking out the baton he managed to dislocate his shoulder, with the resulting shift of body weight causing him to lose his balance and fall off the stage where he landed headfirst and died instantly. The unfortunate part was that Beethoven was deaf at this point in his life, which is why he didn't hear the concertmaster's repeated calls to simply let go of the baton, leaving it tangled in his hair and to pick up a second baton instead. If he had still been able to hear properly, this accident could have easily been avoided.
