@Spirit: Rasputin was shot 2 times in the back then 1 time in the head, died instantly.

....Well, not really. He got stabbed in the back, didn't die so he got poisoned, shot, and since he was still alive the agents sent to kill him gave up and just wrapped his body in a carpet before throwing it down a river. He tried to claw his way out but died of hypothermia, if not simply by drowning.
