Death On 24 July 1965 he was found shot in the head in his car, parked in a cul-de-sac behind his nightclub. He died later in the Middlesex Hospital. He had told the nightclub staff that he was going for a nap in his car, something that he often did.
A week or two previously he had borrowed a rifle from a friend who ran a shooting gallery. Although the rifle was not in working order when borrowed, it had apparently been repaired and was found in the car alongside him.
The coroner’s inquest heard that the angle of the bullet was consistent with a self-inflicted wound, and the inquest ruled that he had committed suicide.
At the time of his death he was heavily in debt to a crime syndicate, which led him to be both depressed and in fear of his life.
Following his death, several lurid theories sprang up: such as that Mills, married with children, had been arrested in a public toilet and charged with indecency, or that his suicide had been staged by Chinese gangsters who were seeking to take over his club.
There was even a story that he was about to be revealed as a serial killer, nicknamed Jack the Stripper. In 2002, a book about Mills was to come out, with allegations that he killed 8 women and had a homosexual relationship with singer Michael Holliday and possibly also with Ronnie Kray.
I know the bloke whose father was the investigating officer in these murder cases. It was said that the women were prostitutes (I don't recall it being 8 though). Mills was allegedly hung like a donkey, and he choked them to death while getting BJ's down unlit back streets.

Hearing voices in head owing to dental fillings picking up radio transmissions.
First came across this one back in 1979, when a friend of a friend's father was allegedly receiving psychiatric treatment until the hospital diagnosed the voices plaguing him as in fact being those of Jimmy Young.

Surely Prince have a rib removed so that he could perform self fellatio on himself must be a myth? If it was that simple then we'd all be a few ribs short of a full set!!

Water goes down the drain counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the southern hemisphere.
Not so. It can go either way dependent on factors that I can't be @rsed to go into.
