Anyone for Rasputin?

On the night of December 29/December 30, 1916 (16 December according to the Julian calendar that was still used in Russia at the time), Yusupov invited Rasputin to his palace on the pretext of his wife Irina needing his attentions as a healer. In a dining room in the palace basement, the two served their guest with wine and cakes laced with potassium cyanide. The poison was ineffective, possibly because Rasputin was a heavy drinker and thus he suffered from achlorhydria (an absence of stomach acid, which is required to transform harmless potassium cyanide into lethal hydrogen cyanide), which meant that the poison had no effect on him. Alternatively, the sugars in the wine and cakes may have inhibited the cyanide, or the chemical used may have been non-toxic either deliberately or accidentally. A book by Edvard Radzinsky claims Yusupov may have deliberately fluffed the murder, because he was in love with Rasputin.

They shot Rasputin three times in the chest, back and head, and beat him around the head with a dumb-bell handle. They then tied him up in a sheet and dropped him through a hole in the ice into the Neva River. He drifted under the ice, still fighting to free himself. The dead body of Rasputin washed up on shore three days later. There was no water in his lungs, meaning he did not drown, but died some other way (most likely freezing).

Supposedly, his penis was cut off and preserved after he died. The Russian museum that displays what they claim to be Rasputin's penis has measured its length at 31 centimeters, or about 12 inches.
