Ironically Guinness Book of Records founder Ross McWhirter was killed by the IRA in 1975.

Wouldn't his death have to set or break a world record to qualify as ironic? I don't think a terrorism tie-in alone makes it ironic, just note worthy.

An ironic death would be if Sarah choked on an apostrophe.

The World Record for Being Thrown by a Car.


Shouldn't the car get a World Record? Doing something seems more record-worthy than having something done to you.

She could accidentally drink defining adjective clause thinking it was non-defining adjective clause because it was sitting next to the appositive.
