You are granted the ultimate choice: you get to choose your death, including all the particulars (when, where, how, with whom, oh yeah, and why you chose that specific death out of the infinite combinations of possible deaths).

Personally, I would choose free fall, skydiving accident where parachute malfunctions, or bungee cord breaks over huge canyon (thinking some of those crazy bridges over mile-high gorges). Why? Because I love the sensation of falling, I get a great view as I head down, and when I hit, I won't feel anything (dead on impact). Nothing like a life-ending adrenaline rush--the high of a lifetime. :D

So...anybody else got a preference they're dying for?

Accidental ingestion of explosives.

Death by snoo-snoo!

Spontaneously being converted entirely into energy. Let's see... one gram is about equal to 20 kilotons of TNT, so I'd manage about...


1.2 gigatons. Yeah, that should do it.

All out jet-to-jet dogfight over a city full of people cheering me on. On the final pass both missiles connect and we rain molten fiery destruction on the enemy troops fighting in the streets.

So awesome.

I wanna free-fall, dead on impact. I wanna only be wearing a tophat.

Death by snoo-snoo!

That sounds nice too.

I want to die in the arms of the woman I love, immediately after experiencing the most pleasurable climax in the history of mankind.

Death by snoo-snoo!

Wtf? snoo-snoo?

Death by snoo-snoo!
Seconded! :D

I would perferre Old Age tho.

Death by.... uh... overdose of caffeine!

Death... no, cake! I said cake! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC8bnuoBNb8)

I will die and then suddenly come back to life.

Death... no, cake! I said cake! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC8bnuoBNb8)

"Well, we're out of cake! We only had three bits and we didn't expect such a rush. So what do you want?" "Well, so my choice is 'or death’?"



I love him.

:cool: Being smothered to death under a hot sweaty orgy on a bed of money. :fluffle:

"All I wanted was a sandwhich with eggs.... and HAM!"

Poison (preferably a fast acting, not too painful variety of ;))or bleeding to death in a hot bath. :p

in combat saving my mate's or saving those i like

I want to die in the arms of the woman I love, immediately after experiencing the most pleasurable climax in the history of mankind.

Bang that drum; he said what I wanted to.

Standing outside of my enemy's stronghold after narrowly defeating him in an epic battle while immediately being surrounded by his heavily armed comrads. Upon which they open fire and I drop dead in the snow laughing.

Then a series of movies is made about me and all of them suck tremdously, but it makes billions because at that point I will be worshiped since there was a camera video taping my demise.

yeah something like that.

Poison (preferably a fast acting, not too painful variety of ;))or bleeding to death in a hot bath. :p

It would seem your gender has different ideas on what constitutes a good death than men do. Being dead hot in a bloody bath!

...well, I'll after urbandictionarying it, I'll go for snoo snoo.

Or maybe coming into contact with an exact antimatter duplicate of myself. That'd boost it to 2.4 gigatons.

In narcosis during one top-secret operation to create the Human 2.0 :)

Poison (preferably a fast acting, not too painful variety of ;))or bleeding to death in a hot bath. :p

No snoo snoo?

Bang that drum; he said what I wanted to.

Bang... Drum?

I thought you wanted to bang something... er... Someone else. ;)

Bang... Drum?

I thought you wanted to bang something... er... Someone else. ;)

...Congo. Congo drum?

...or am I remembering incorrectly about my types of drums and thus making my ever odd thought processes look even odder?

Ground zero of a nuclear explosion. Vaporized before my nerves even have time to transmit the searing pain to my brain.

Ground zero of a nuclear explosion. Vaporized before my nerves even have time to transmit the searing pain to my brain.

My preferred method of death involves me being ground zero of a nuclear explosion.

Spending the last hour alone with my soulmate before a hydrogen bomb explodes just down the street. I'm a romantic.

Poison (preferably a fast acting, not too painful variety of ;))or bleeding to death in a hot bath. :p

bleeding to death in a hot bath seen that in a movie

I choose never.

I don't much care, as long as I take the human race with me.

Copycat.

Really, sorry. I didn't read any but the first post.

A spontanious conversion into energy would be fairly impressive, not that anyone would have much time to see.

I wouldn't mind being blown up with "Blaze of Glory" by Bon Jovi in the background going out in, a blaze of glory with nothing left to bury or whine over.

I vote for complete, gratutious total existence failure.

I'm postadolescent :(

I'm just kidding around.

With a preadolescent death fantasy, apparently :p

Yes because death fantasies are a great measure for maturity rather than opinion.

If I had to die...

I'd like to fall off a British Airways jet into the middle of a firing squad belonging to some random evil dictator and get riddled with bullets, then have my body thrown into a blender with some fruit and some ice and distributed to people that I hate.

Why?

I like to be through. And the idea of being served as a drink to my enemies makes me laugh.

I just want to stop living due to advanced age. At about the age of 115. Still relatively mentally and physically active.

Only 78 more years to go.

I'd want to be strangled with the Punjab lasso by the Phantom of the Opera from the original novel, as long as I could talk to him first and meet him (if I had to die.) He's really good at strangling people, so they are knocked out right away and die within about five seconds.

Shoot in the head with a big gun. Or while in prayer, maybe both. That would be nice. Or in my sleep.

Either being shot out of a giant cannon or creating a massive slingshot to try and fling me over the Grand Canyon.

suicide after I destroy the planet!

I'd like to die Red Dawn style.

Needlessly and while killing communists.

Not if I get you first! :mad:

Eaten by a tyrannosaurus.

So...anybody else got a preference they're dying for?

Suicide. With a gun.

Ok here we go, ive put alot of thought into this.

Lone gunmen roams my town killing at will. He has murdered some 600 people, and due too his full armor-plated BDU, nobody has been able too bring him down. The town is in panic...But then...I appear! With my 9mm Beretta. We fight for a bit, exchanging shots. Eventually, I rush him my final shot nailing him in the open eyehole of his steel plated hockey mask. He falls down dead, but before that, he squeezed of a quick roun, which plunges right into my forehead, and out the back of my head, I die without a second of pain. Im honored as a national hero, including a full parade with honor in Washington DC.

All riiight.

Minigun firing squad, with the traditional 5 guns, 1 being empty.


And not like 10 bullets from each gun and he's dead, I want the bastards to unload their entire magazine into my body.

Eric was my favorite character out of any book, ever. Close runner-up would be Harry Haller from Der Steppenwolf.

Dying like Golum did in LOTR sounds pretty good. Falling into a volcano while staring obsessively at a piece of jewlery.

As Comic Book Guy would say:

"Best. Death. Ever!"

10 bullets from each gun would mean that you won't have a body. Chaingun ammo is explosive.

Teleported inside a star on the other side of the galaxy.

Surrounded by the bodies of my fallen enemies, with those that are left taken down with me.

Oh, yeah.

ok either blow my head off with a shotgun, overdose on drugs, beheaded with a sword, or set myself on fire. i have thought about these things many, many times and these are the best ways ive come up with for me.

Backflipping off of a skyscraper.

Performing a suicidal task which would save billions of lives from certain death, and be remembered as a hero of the highest caliber.

I figured this one out a long time ago.

I will be on a motorcycle. Preferably a Ducati. Going super fast. And I'll be trying to save a busload of blind schoolgirls. I will have two microuzis in each hand which I shall be using to slay the attacking ninjas. In the process I need to crash through a pane of glass and/or be impaled upon something. Finally, after the children are saved from the imminent peril, The ninjas will pursue me until we come to the overturned fuel tanker, at chich point I rev the motorcycle up and clear the tanker, emptying my clips into the gas tank, creating a huge giant explosion that will eliminate the threat of the ninjas at the expense of my own life.

Failing that I might just get stoned and try to make love to a piledriver.

I put thought in this too...

I want to die fighting afrowearing ninja turtles, fighting on an errant Asteroid that I alone was sent to blow up by literally punching a 300 foot hole into the surface and dropping a bomb into it.

After the cardasians show up to ruin our party, the afroturtles and I join forces and we fight off the entire Star Trek fan club, aided by Darth Vader in a sexy little miniskirt. Now, in the end, we all decide that fighting isn't the way to go, after Ghandi shows up with 47 Virgins and a keg of toxic waste.

And, since by now I've forgotten what I'm doing on the asteroid in the first place, Me, the afrowearing ninja turtles, the Cardasian fleet, the Star Trek Fan Club, Darth Vader, Ghandi, all those precious virgins, those 2 virgins, and 45 very sastified women, and the entire world.


Blow up because I left the stove on in my house.

Ooh ooh! Adolescent death-fantasy time!


I want to die in a hail of police bullets outside a sleazy motel near the Mexican border following a nationwide manhunt. When I go down it will be with guns blazing, shouting how they'll never take me alive.
Years later ballads based on my story will become a staple of any folk singer-songwriter's repertoire.


Alternately, a good old-fashioned mythological smiting. Piss off some deity enough that they turn me into a tree, or send a sea-monster to eat me or something like that. Which will of course inspire folk singers to write songs about me.

Sublimation (Iain M Banks style)

At the age of 7000 years after using nanotechnology to conquer the earth, make myself eternally young, and build a titanic fortress of black spires.

I want it to be because I slipped on a bar of soap.

Isn't choosing your own death kinda like suicide?

It's only suicide if you die by your own hands.

See, one would expect that I died because I forgot to blow up the asteroid while partying with the Ninja Turtles (70s disco style), Darth Vader, Trekkies, 47 Virgins, Ghandi, and my friends, the Cardasians...

Me going on an Asteroid to blow it up, THAT would be suicide.

However, I died simply because my gigantic nuclear powered oven was left on. So, my death at least, wasn't suicide, it was simply the Gods using me to wipe out mankind in a most unexpected manner.

The idea is that you choose the circumstances of your death so that it is Epic. Epic with a Nightwish*.

Ahhhh.. I see.

I'd like to spontaneously keel over on stage, in frong of thousands of people screaming my name. I'd also like them to take a few second to notice something was really wrong.

Lets see, there are only two Deaths I desire.

One is peacefully passing in my sleep as an Old man, with my Children, and Grand children, and Great-Grandchildren all with me at my house.

The Other, is a Slow Horrible Painful Death by the Hands ofmy own Characters. Especially Kajeenith, but only if he had all his powers. Then the pain and suffering could last for time beyond Comprehension, while I suffered in ways not even the most demented among you can imagine.

That or, Meeting Cthulhu face to what I think is a Face.

(Not the NS poster, The Alien Demon from H.P. Lovecraft's writtings.)

Erik was my favorite character out of any book, ever. Close runner-up would be Harry Haller from Der Steppenwolf.

Fixed.;) And he is awesome.

Tommy Cooper pretty much died like that. Poor bloke.

Me and a friend would be in say...America, yes that’ll do. We’ll be taking a casual stroll through the Grand Canyon when we come upon a rotting corpse. My friend will be overcome by cannibalistic urges and begin devouring the carcass. His skin will turn scaly and red, and he will begin to grow to immense height, until he is taller than the walls of the canyon themselves, as the corpse had been possessed by Satan. I will be overcome by pure primal terror, and scale the rock face until I’m out of the canyon. A wheelchair ninja, a Nazi, and an evil pots and pans robot with a deathray and a guitar appear, and try to prevent my escape. I best them with my superior martial arts skillz0rz, and steal the guitar.

I hop in a fluoro-orange Ford Falcon, and begin to drive away, but I see that the giant red monstrosity from before is moving towards the nearest town. I smirk, this would be my final triumph, my blaze of glory. I set the car to full speed, and drive over the edge of the canyon, using the bodies of my three dead foes as a ramp. I raise my sword and guitar, and play the single most rockingest note of all time. It shatters Satan’s soul, as my car crashes in to his eye and shatters his iris. The beast falls to the ground, dead. I hop off the flaming corpse, a broken arm for my troubles.

I am surrounded by nine mecha-grizzlies, it is a fierce battle, but I am winning, until the tenth decloaks, and knifes me in the back. My self-destruct is initiated, destroying myself and the remaining bear. I am dead, and one of the USA’s greatest natural features lies in ruin, but humanity is safe again. The entire personnel of the USMC, Her Majesty’s Royal Marines, the SAS, ASIO, FBI, CIA, all the ANZACs from all points in time arrive and give me a 210 Howitzer salute. I would be remembered as a hero from then on.

With two worldwide holidays in my honour.

Decapitation in a bungee accident.

No, I'm not sure how it'd work either, but I want my head to land a very long way from my body.

Hmm..

How about..

You're at the top of the Eiffel Tower, and beam crashes down on to you and chops your head off, throwing it over the side, and splattering on the ground, right in front of a child?

Death by self will power during sleep, just sleep and shut down. At of course an extreme long life of several millenia's good health where I have explored the known galaxy and a good portion of the unknown. And of course having personally contributed to the genetic profile of every off world colony :D

Taking the NS server with me, you guys will never forget me then:)

There's no bungee accident though.

I want my head to come off just as I start springing back, because I think that would create maximum distance between head and body.

That'd be awesome, bungee off a building, get your head ripped off, then have your bouncing body squirt blood everywhere.

Yeah, if you ever see that happen, make sure you get the head and take it home so you can compare it with pictures of me on NSG. Alternatively, print off a picture of me and carry it in your wallet at all times. Although that might make people think you're gay. And with bad taste in men as well.

I'll take assasination, please. I'm going to be important enough to be assasinated. Then they'll have to give me a state funeral,even though 10% of the country thought I was an evil tyrant but the other 90% voted for me so whattre ya gonna do, eh?

That's when they assasinate me (with sniper rifle) (a bullet from said sniper rifle) (through the heart) (no, not the face, anywhere but the face)

Guillotines can be quite helpful in your situation. :)

Mother says I am, but that's probably only cause she has to. An open-coffin funeral is much better if I don't have a great chunk of skull missing.

You know what would be funny? Destroying a monarchial line by sniping the monarch in the groin before they can impregnante anyone.

Well If TV doesn't lie..

This one time, on Six Feet Under, this lady, she was like.. standing in a limo, popping out of the moon roof, and she like.. smashed her faced into a lift thingy.

The guy like.. reconstructed her face!

Hmmmm....
I suppose I'd choose getting carried away in a dance off...
:cool: Yeah. That'd be cool.

I'd die while getting laid. It would be so good my heart stops, and give me a hell of a rush. Nothing like sex before you die.

The idea is that you choose the circumstances of your death so that it is Epic. Epic with a Nightwish*.

*Cookie to whoever gets that.

I presume you're referring to the chunk of "Ghost Love Score" used in the YTMND epic maneuvers?

Regarding an epic death, I think most of the good ones have already been taken, so I tried to come up with something creative. This is what I have:
I'm in a duel with swords with someone, he manages to knock my weapons away from me and impales me and allows my body with two swords through my chest to fall to the ground. He stands there triumphantly, but when he turns his back, I get up, pull one out of my chest and shove it through his neck, we then both die there in a rather large pool of blood. Just to add to it, "epic maneuver" is playing the whole time.

I'd rather let Fate make it's course.

In non-death relations though, I am Fate's bitch.

Well? Somebody sig me!
