The point for this post is to start several (hopefully) interesting threads of weird hamster death stories because apparently these things never die naturally?

Not mine, but my sister accidentally kicked a tall floor lamp over in her sleep. It landed right next to the glass aquarium her hamster was in. It had one of those really bright incandescent 100w bulbs.

Poor little guy cooked to death like a Thanksgiving turkey.
