Explanation: Pyrrhus of Epirus, an enemy of Rome from whom we get the term 'pyrrhic victory', was an accomplished general and monarch over several lands. He was eventually killed while fighting in Greece - during combat in the streets of a city, a soldier's mother tossed a roof tile on his head, which either killed him, or stunned him for long enough for the soldier to finish him off. Don't mess with ma!
I bet it made a real satisfying sound when it hit him
Eh... wut?
Like 'klong-splunch'?
I was thinking more like "Legend of Zelda pot shattering sound"
