A Queen once drowned while her subject watched because they were forbidden to touch her!
No, not Queen the band (which by the way is one of the greatest bands that will ever exist), a real Queen suffered this terrible fate.
Sunandha Kumariratana was a daughter of King Mongkut and Princess Consort Piam. Unfortunately for her, she and her daughter drowned after a terrible boat incident and despite the presence of many people looking, they were unable to help them both because they were forbidden on pain of death to touch the queen, not even to save her life.
