Worst ways: Like others have already said here, burning, drowning, sufficating, or being slowly crushed, maimed, or mangled to death, like the students of Tiananmen Square 15 years ago.

Best way: A slightly different take on dying in your sleep--

When I die, I'd like to go quietly in my sleep
Like my grandfather
Not screaming
Like his passengers.

Or better yet, going out in a blaze of glory, a warrior's death, taking as many of your enemy with you as you can.

Egad, that's kind of selfish don't you think? And just how do you think your lover would be that next morning when it was found you were dead?

Good point, Brad.

But, at that point, would you *really* care? [evil]

This one isn't a likely scenario for one of the "worst ways" to expire (but it is still pretty disturbing): You're chained to the bottom of a rotten trash dumpster and then it gets filled with thousands of gallons of used tobacco spit juice.

I only thought of that one as a deserved punishment for some psychopath pranksters in the news today. Just for fun they taped explosive fireworks in the mouths of some puppies and blew off their heads. Police have no suspects. The mother of the puppies was apparently unhurt, but was traumatized from watching her dogs die. There is no type of death cruel enough for the kind of scum that gets their kicks from torturing animals. I'd gladly blast off their testicles with my Ithaca shotgun so they would be unable to pollute the human genepool any further with their spawn.

Yeah, I saw that too Bobby. I agree 100%. Those guys ought to have their balls sloooowly squeezed in a vice until their eyes pop out before a M-80 is put in their mouth and set off. Oh, and BTW on cable so all could applaud their just desserts! Fuck 'em!

What low-life POS assholes!

I have seen some really bad ways to die over there at rotten.com

Anyways..

My number one best way to die:

Breaking the land speed record in a futuristic sports car. Just as I break the record - the million dollar car explodes into giant fireball.

My number one worst way:

Being pushed out of an airplane without a parachute.

Nah Bobby, the punishment should fit the crime...sort of. Those guys need to have small fireworks taped in their mouths repeatedly until their heads explode. We wouldn't want to do it in one quick shot.

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. Rather we should skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaim: WOW! WHAT A RIDE! [Wink] From a guy who has outlived one doctor and watch his replacement retire [Cool] They did not follow my advice.....Best time ...in bed...worst time...getting up in the morning since I expect to survive the day.

As a kid I stayed up late and watched a silent (I think) short about a filmmaker wrapping up his work. He put the film can aside and the can opened revealing film that was unwinding itself. It moved along the floor and a dog was looking at it curiously. The film then wrapped itself around the dog and the filmmaker was scared because when the film unraveled the dog was gone. The man ran out of the house and the film followed and cornered him. The man fought frantically, but was enveloped by the film. The outline of the man was obvious and the film unraveled leaving nothing in the man's place. Then the film crawled back into its film can and that was the end. I had nightmares about it and to think to this day I actually love playing around with film.

Beheading would be pretty bad.  - How long is the head alive and conscious after it comes off, anyway?

I also will never die, having been in several near death experiences that would have killed lesser men, such as today when my wife nearly screwed me to death, giving me a near stroke as she did and sending me screaming in pain. ANyone else would have had thier head exploded like in scanners, by the way a very bad way to die.

The best way to die as at my feet begging for your pitiful life while I whisper plattitudes of windsong whooshing quetly..... um.... yeah just die already.

Ciao

What I meant was dying along with the one you love. You'd both die, together and enter the afterlife together. In otherwords, not dying alone.
