BEIJING (Reuters) - Three grave robbers were killed when a 1,000-year-old Chinese tomb collapsed on them.

Four herdsmen from Inner Mongolia broke into the tomb, from the Liao dynasty (916-1125) that ruled in the north, with the intention of looting, Xinhua news agency said.

No sooner had they got inside when the brick-made tomb collapsed, killing three of the men. The lone survivor escaped from the debris and reported the case to the police, Xinhua said.

2. They would never have made it past the poison darts, anyway

Not to mention the giant boulder.
