Jack Smith, 860, died last night in a terrifying fall from his beanstalk.
The hero of the children's story had lived alone there ever since killing the Giant.
The adventurer rose to fame when he misguidedly swapped a cow for magic beans. His furious mother banished him to bed and famously threw the beans away.
After climbing the resultant beanstalk and stealing lots of artefacts from the Giant, Jack tried to win his girlfriends affection.
He then allegedly killed the Giant in a raged attack, and was found days later with blood stained hands. Jack was never convicted. He hired Johnnie Cochrane, of O.J Simpson fame, to handle the trial, and was found not guilty.
During the trial, the golden egg laying hen was mysteriously found roasted, on the day she was due to give evidence. Again Jack was cleared of any wrongdoing.
