Ronald asked:

 How did Myrtle die if she wears glasses (Colin was
petrified using the camera)?
  
   We know Myrtle tears up easily . She might have pushed her 
glasses out of the way to wipe her eyes as she came blundering 
out of her stall. I like the irony of supposing that Tom was telling 
the truth to some extent when he told Hagrid how she must have 
died: "I don't think you meant to kill anyone. But monsters don't 
make good pets." ie, Myrtle's death was not part of his plan, and 
his intention was  to Petrify her.
