![Constantine died the day the city fell, 29 May 1453. According to Michael Critobulus (writing later in Mehmed's service), he remarked, "The city is fallen and I am still alive."[26] Then he tore off his imperial ornaments so as to let nothing distinguish him from any other soldier and led his remaining troops in a last charge where he was killed.[27]](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/159/041/bb4.jpg "\"The city is fallen and I am still alive.\" Then he tore off his imperial ornaments so as to let nothing distinguish him from any other soldier and led his remaining troops in a last charge where he was killed.")
