Maggie Bogey of Colinsburgh, Scotland, lived to the age of 100 years and four months, and she slept every night of her life in the same bed. In this era of women who are anything but bashful around men, it would be hard to convince anyone that there was once a woman who died of bashfulness. From childhood, Teresa St. John of Rode, France, had become violently ill unless she turned away whenever she was addressed. Her shyness was so severe that she dropped dead when she found herself face to face with a man for the first time in 80 years. Believe It or Not!
