However, it can be bit of fun.
Do you remember the scene in "Braveheart" when the darling prince's boyfriend was thrown out of the window of the tower to his death?
Did you know there is a word for that?

Matthäus Merian's impression of the 1618 Defenestration of Prague
Defenestration (from Modern Latin fenestra[1]), is the act of throwing someone or something out of a window.[2] The term was coined around the time of an incident in Prague Castle in the year 1618 which became the spark that started the Thirty Years' War. This was done in "good Bohemian style", referring to the defenestration which had occurred in Prague's City Hall almost 200 years earlier (July 1419), which also on that occasion led to the Hussite war.[3] The word comes from the New Latin[4] de- (down from) and fenestra (window or opening).[5
