Princess Diana was just 36 years old when she died on August 31, 1997, following a devastating car crash in Paris, France. Since then, friends and colleagues have shared a multitude of stories about the former Princess of Wales. For instance, one of her royal butlers recalled a particularly strange moment when he feared an acupuncture needle might have been left in the princess's body.
In his book A Royal Duty, former butler Paul Burrell wrote, "Once, an acupuncturist from whom the princess had just returned telephoned. If acupuncturists are meant to be calming, this call was anything but. In fact, the practitioner was on the verge of panic. 'I'm a needle short. I think I may have left one in the princess's head!'"
