I think you swapped David Bowie and Genghis Khan. Give me a sec to verify everything else.

Oops! You said James Bowie not David Bowie so Bowie is correct. I'll check the rest of the answers to be sure since I forgot yesterday.

Edit: Surprised Genghis died from falling from his horse; I remember he died from an arrow in the eye but I guess I was wrong

Edit 2: Looks like everything's good. Do you want me to delete my comments?

Edit 3: I just now realized that I was thinking that Genghis Khan died of an arrow to the knee but that's also not why he died

You were right, I got the wrong Bowie, I put David Bowie originally but made an edit earlier and fixed it. No need to delete the comments and thanks for the proof read!

Saying that Stonewall Jackson did not die in battle is a REALLLLLL stretch. He died from wounds received in the Battle of Chancellorsville a week later.

Thought the same thing. If Yamamoto is there after being intercepted while traveling, then Jackson should absolutely be on there.

Same thing with Sitting Bull, who died in a botched police arrest, there was no real battle. This quiz is very fishy.

I second this. I got 0% because I very confidently clicked on Stonewall first lol

I would replace Stonewall Jackson with someone else, there is enough ambiguity about if he should qualify or not that I think it would be simpler if he were just removed with someone else

Too vague. How do you define a battle? If Adolf Hitler was commanding a battle and then shot himself before being captured during said battle is that technically a battle death? If Benito Mussolini is captured by partisans and hung is that not technically a battle to some extent?

Others mentioned the Stonewall Jackson thing which is probably the most egregious.
