It did in fact happen with regularity that incapable, insane or otherwise unsuitable rulers would end up ruling.
A famous example is Charles II of Habsburg (ruled the Kingdom of Spain from 1665-1700). Suffering from several though not precisely documented disabilities due to extensive inbreeding, he died in his late thirties.
