You xould write that they accidentally stabbed themselves to death while signing their fortune over to the Cuban Communist Party.
Part of the rules is that it has to be plausibly something they would do.
I don't think that was a rule. You couldn't puppet someone whose name and face you knew into killing someone else or make them cause an accident with additional casualties, and you couldn't make them do something they didn't have the knowledge to do (with some caveats: they couldn't be made to reveal information they didn't have, but they could be made to say or write specific phrases that were part of the instructions), but I don't remember an individual plausibility restriction.
Light also tried to make a prisoner teleport to France before dying.
Right, physical possibility is one of them, but not like character motivation plausibility. Someone can be made to do something out of character, but not begin flying or walking through walls or the like.
Light makes the bus hijacker pick up the piece of the death note so he could plausibly see Ryuk and scream about a demon and unload his gun.
