I've fallen into that trap before - it won't work after the iso8859_1. The reason is that an eight-bit encoding have all 256 code-points assigned (usually, there are exceptions but you have to be lucky to have a string that contains a value not assigned in one of them - which is highly unlikely) AFAIK iso-8859-1 has all codepoints taken - so you won't go beyond that in your example.
