How famous tyrants met their ends...

Watching the video of Saddam's execution, I was struck with the idea of who other famous tyrants have met their ends:

Joseph Stalin: died of a stroke, March 5, 1953.

Mao Zedong: died of natural causes, September 9, 1976.

Adolph Hitler: committed suicide, April 30, 1945.

Benito Mussolini: executed by Italian partisans, April 28, 1945.

Pol Pot: died of natural causes, April 15, 1998.

Nicolae Ceausescu: executed by firing squad, December 25, 1989.

Idi Amin: died of natural causes, August 16, 2003.
