There’s a lot to choose from, but it’s early so I’ll bring up the three separate historically significant Defenestrations of Prague. Defenestration is the act of tossing someone out of a window.
TBH I kinda forgot the rest of it, since the fact there were three and they had such an unusual theme was the interesting part.
Looks like the first one was proto-protestant rebels, and sparked a religious war. The second was a coup against a Hungarian king who was getting too powerful for the defenestrator’s tastes, and featured the defenestration of already dead bodies, 'cause why not.
More people have been thrown from windows in Prague since the third one you were thinking of, but none of them has really caught on as an event. It was sometimes Russian assassins, or course.

I mean once it’s happened twice it must become a cultural thing so the third one is inevitable
True!
One started the 48 years war! I remember that from highschool. What were the other two?
