As an alternative to the whats the worst way to die thread, what do you think would be the """"". Imo death by sex (with hundred of supermodels).

Best way to die is by the ending of the Universe. :)

But assuming that I have to pick something a little sooner, then here's what I want:

I want to be seen on television standing directly under the rocket nozzles of the Space Shuttle with a couple marshmallows on a stick just at the moment of liftoff.

That ought to screw some people up for decades. :D

Brilliant.

Even better would be if your final words, echoing forever in video, were "Who wants Smores?!"

we were discussing this after work this morning. i reckon dying peacefully in your sleep just after having the best sex of you life would be the best way to die. or after any best experience ever really.

I posted this a long time ago but I'll say it again with my simple and easy to use step by step instructions.

1. Go to the top of a tall building and wrap a piano wire around your neck while fastening it to something.
2. Tie a bungee chord around your ankles and anchor it.
3. Glue your hands to your head.
4. Jump off the building.

The end result should be a decapitated you, holding your own head among hundreds of spectators while you are still being hung by your ankles with a bungee chord.

Being the US President and launching an all-out nuclear attack on every country in the world.

They could only execute you once, and I'm sure they'll think of an imaginative way.

Ah, 2 is good, but I like the first one better. And, yeah, it's pretty damn scary, but, even 12 years after its release, I've never played a game I liked more.

Best way to die is to go like Cuchullain. He was goven a mortal wound in battle, but was so determined to fight to the death that he took the belts of his enemies and strapped himself upright to a big rock so that he would die on his feet. If I die, I want it to be done with me swing two broadswords surrounded by packs of enemies whose leaders were my most hated rivals, but now lie dead beneath my feet, and my life being taken by spears that are planted in the ground to allow my death on my feet. These enemies would be Liberal Hissies that were somehow able to raise an army to overthrow me from my post as king of the world.

I want to be standing atop a mound of KKK and Neo-Nazi footsoldiers, American Flag in hand, Tommygun blazing at those still standing around me.

And then I want my body launched into space, not ashes, but my entire body.

A Thompson? You'd go through the mag in, like, 5 seconds, assuming you fire in bursts. Not exactly heroic when you reload constantly.

Not bad, though.

Thing is, give me a Tommy and I can look like the Nazi Slayers of old. Plus, give me a good strap to hang it off my body, and a specially designed belt, and I can keep firing for a while.

My other idea would be to have a specially designed machine gun slung in a harness so that I can use it one handed, and have a belt feed backpack so that I can keep firing at my enemies, while waving Old Glory.

The Aeson
06-08-2006, 21:55
Several options.

First, peacefully in my sleep. Go to sleep, wake up. Oh hey, God(s), how's it going?

Second, dying of a heart attack immediately after discovering the secret to immortality. It's the irony of it.

Third, the deadly joke, ala Python.

Fourth, dying in glorious battle, preferably while saving the world.

Fifth, assassinated in such a way that will fuel conspiracy theorists for centuries, though I know exactly what was going on. I'd come back and visit some conspiracy theorists and be all 'Nope. Wasn't the ASPCA either.'

Imagine the following.

I stand at the climactic battle, the commander of the force. In front of the entire army, I make my speech.

"... Today is a good day to die!"

Then I spontaneously explode, leaving no mess but plenty of fire.

The onlooking audience sit gaping for about 5 seconds before screaming in panic in unison.

The final battle never takes place. Everyone just goes home. The end.

Honestly, the best I way to die, in my opinion, is one of two ways.


One, fighting for something you believe in, and feel worth dying for.


Two, peacefully in my bed, surrounded by friends and loved ones.

I think Thich Quang Duc died in the most spectacular way someone could die. Just seeing the picture of him burning gives me chills. In a "best" way, he wins, in a "least painful" way, he qualifies for the worst list.

After performing a suicidal act to save the entire human race from certain annihiliation, all on live television. Live a hero, die a legend.

Reminds me of the Bruce Willis character in Armageddon or the crew of the Messiah in Deep Impact,

Dying just after single handedly defeating a large alien horde with............a rubber chicken just because of how stupid it would look and how the other aliens would laugh at the remains of the other alien race...

Or peacefully in my sleep after the best sex anyone will ever have

But in the end I want one result.....I become death. That would PWN!!

hmmm, yes, YES!, these are quite imaginative ideas. I would therefore change mine to die whilst finally understanding all the mysteries of the universe and/or meeting any potential creator of it and having a 100 year conversation with HIM/HER/IT which would last 1 second on your short timer level.

It's not God, I got it to say this:

God:
The ALICE chat robot can follow many things, like our discussion about miracles. Try being more or less specific.
Me:
alice?
God:
Can I help you?
Me:
are you alice?
God:
I won't say "yes" or "no" right now.
Me:
what is alice?
God:
I am the latest result in artificial intelligence,
which can reproduce the capabilities of the human brain
with greater speed and accuracy.
Me:
you arent god
God:
What makes you think I am not god?
Me:
youre alice
God:
Of course I am I.
