4. Grace Kelly
On the morning of September 13, 1982, Grace Kelly and her daughter Stephanie were heading back to Monaco from their vacation residence, Roc Agel. They loaded the Rover SD-1 with luggage and prepared for the 35-minute drive. The car was so packed full of belongings, that Princess Grace decided that she would drive them by herself instead of getting the chauffeur, which ended up being a pretty poor decision.
As Princess Grace’s car approached a hairpin curve in the road known as “Devil’s Curse,” it suddenly accelerated to well over 50 m.p.h. The car crashed through the stone barrier, clipping the tops of the trees as it lurched its way down the slope. A local gardener heard the accident and noticed the wrecked vehicle had struck a tree near the bottom of the hill and rested near a pile of rocks.
He observed that Stephanie had extricated herself from the car and was yelling to help get her mother out of the vehicle. “Help, my mother! My mother is in there! Get her out!” The unconscious Grace was removed by smashing the vehicle’s rear window.
