On the very same date, June 29, 1967, actress Jayne Mansfield was scalped and killed in a car crash, when her convertible collided with a parked tractor-trailer. To downplay the gruesome death, sources spread the falsehood that only her wig flew off in the accident, but it was actually the top portion of her head (which is not technically a decapitation).
Mansfield's children were asleep in the backseat and survived the accident, including a 3-year old Mariska Hargitay.
