Hmmmm, I don't think falling would be my thing. I'm not scared of heights, but it ****s me when I screw up a jump on my bike and I know I'm not going to land it - that's only 1.5-2m... :nervous:

As for drowning, I've heard it's very painful. Sucking water into your lungs hurts like hell - and you won't die straight away, you still have to suffocate with all that water sloshing around!

As for things like car crash, stabbing and gunshots, I'd be afraid that I wouldn't die straight away. Sure the bullet might blow half my brain out, but what if it was the half I don't use, then I'm left alive for 10 or so seconds with only half a head? And sure I might get stabbed in the heart, but then I'll just have to bleed to death... How long will that take? I'd have to watch my life run out of me. :yuck: Car crash? Again, what if I was alive for a bit. Sure, the report might say died on impact, but how can they be sure? It might take the EMS five minutes to get there. What if I was alive for four and a half minutes before that?

Burning would be the worst - You'd still be alive as all your skin was on fire! Ahhhhh, the pain! :scared:

For me, I'll have wimp out and go with the sleep option. Just going to bed as per normal and not waking up the next morning. I think it'll be best that way...
 
The speed of a free-falling object does not depend on time (or altitude, depending what expression for v you are using), only.

If no air resistance was present, then it would increase indefinetly (until impact), according to the equation v = sqrt(2*g*h), where sqrt = square root, g = acceleration of gravity (assumed constant), h = initial altitude.

Air, though, offers quite a big resistance and the drag force is proportional to the square of the velocity. Hence, your terminal velocity does not follow the above relationship.

I agree with TVR and Anderton--I'd love to have a heart attack while taking some gorgeous girl's ability to walk. I'd do my best to paralyze her from the waist down.:lol::sly:
Actuall, I voted explosion. As long as I'm near the meat of it, because then I'd be pretty much instantly obliterated. A gun shot to the head would be nice, as long as it came from a sniper, of sorts, that I couldn't see. I should say "to the brain, really, because your eyes are on your head, and it'd suck getting shot across the eyes. You wouldn't die, you'd just feel agonizing pain and never be able to see again. I've heard a story of some kid trying to commit suicide and he did just that. It wasn't made up either; a policeman told it to me and the whole class.
A car crash wouldn't be all that bad, as long as it was also fairly instant. It sounds goofy, but when I'm doing some sort of dangerous driving, I know something bad could happen, but I don't care. I could deal with it if I was in that state of mind. I'd probably say something like "Damn....." BOOOM! CRASHBANG!!!
All the other means seem way to involve conciousness a bit too much for my dieing tastes. For instance, I once jumped into my freshly-uncovered-for-the-spring pool when to water was about 40 degrees. It's only 18 feet wide, but it's hard to swim that far when your brain feels as though it has no oxygen. That was about the scariest thing I'd ever done. Of course, I was alone, and I'm sure it's a little less scary when you can touch the bottom and others are around to help you out, like in the Polar Bear Club.
Of the two rivals, I'd rather freeze than burn. When I'm cold I get tired, so I'd most likely freeze in my sleep.
 
Out of the list, I'd choose car crash, but only if I was doing something fun, like racing. :dopey:

Dying from a skydiving accident would be kinda fun, for a while. Between freezing and burning, I'd definitely choose freezing.

The least painful would probably be while I'm sleeping, though.
 
Here's a thought on the falling impact death...do you think maybe for a split second you would feel an immense amount of pain? Say you tried to land on your legs, they would shatter and go up through your ribs...you would feel a bit of pain for a split second.

I wonder what would happen if you landed on your butt (either cannonball style or like a boomerang-shape with your butt being the point and your arms and legs being the longated points)
 
Either way, you'd squarsch into putty. Not just any putty, ubergoobernostrom style putty. You know, the messy stuff.
 
I'd prefer to be shot. You'd eventually go too numb to feel the pain. Besides, I'm not overly afraid of pain.
 
Peacefully,,, like in my sleep. Or if it must be something worse whatever kills me ie gunshot or anything like that I hope I don't suffer at all just die quickly with no pain.

Car crash. Id like to die as a car fanatic with my car. Whats a better way to die than doing what you enjoy the most?

You mean to tell me that you enjoy driving more than you do enjoy having sex? ;)

Because, you know, I love driving cars too... But if we are talking about what I enjoy the most, I don't think I have any doubt about it :D

Well...driving is the thing that I look most forward to when I get my license in about 3 months.

As for having sex, how can you die while doing that :odd: unless your partner had some secret plot to kill you :lol:
 
I prefer not to think too much on how i will die. Ive spent most of my life trying not to die :lol:

I would like to know im dieing, like in a hospital bed and then just know its gonna happen and just fall asleep peacefully.

Well it depends. if you jump out of the second floor, well, then there will probably be a lot of pain involved.
But jumping out of a skyscraper or plane won't cause any pain on the impact, since that impact is such a major trauma and shock that your brain won't have a chance to bring that pain to reality. You'll be long dead before that, so don't worry ;). It's really a safe method, much more painless than everything else, since other ways of dying can go wrong. And dying while having sex is no fun either believe me, since a heart attack is really painful for at least a few seconds. So I'd recommend having sex in the presidental suit of some skyscraper and THEN jump out of the window :lol:

Well from what I've heard when you drown the last few moments before losing consciousness is apparently the best feeling you will ever have apparently some kind of huge euphoria right before you die where you won't even know you're drowning.

Where'd you hear that? I would think that 100% of the things you hear about death are from people who have never experienced it.

Well, ever heard of reanimation ? Apart from that you can simply proove those things in medicine, it'S all about the hormons...
But while the last bit of dying might be somethinh in between "ok" and "great", you'll panic before and so I'd avoid drowning tbh ;)
 
drowning isnt so bad. i know because i almost drowned once :scared: i wouldnt mind getting shot. I'd like to die a hero's death. I dont mind getting shot as long as i dont get shot in the crotch. stabbing is near the bottom of my list for ways to die...

getting strangled is only bad for the last 2-5 seconds before you die. I wouldnt mind dying in a giant explosion that vaporizes me.

I heard it once coming from someone who drowned and was pronounced clinically dead and got revived. Well I heard it from someone who knew the person that drowned and survived. About dying doing what you love doing I'd love to someday ride a motorcycle, could be fun to die doing that at a high enough speed I'm sure crashing and instantly snapping your kneck could be a fun way to go. Although you might not always die on impact, I was listening to two friendly officers talking about a couple speeding on their motorcycle, who willingly shared the story with me. Well the couple on the motorcycle got nailed head on by an old woman in her big 1970's caddilac. They were driving at a high rate of speed that the engine from the cadillac was pushed into the firewall causing the dashboard of the cadillac to cave in, the old woman in the cadillac survived and was even angry about the incident. She wanted to put the couple in jail,not knowing what extent of their injuries were, well the man driving the motorcycle was killed on impact but apparently the woman did not and somehow during the accident her pelvis was crushed completely and when they arrived on the scene she was on the ground with her pelvis crushed but alive and screaming in pain. Her pelvis was apparently crushed to an extent it looked like it was a flattened by a steamroller. She was alive but when the paramedics tried to get her on a stretcher her pelvis from the waist down started to separate from her body and that her legs were starting to fall off it was just a horrible sight with her still screaming. From what the officers heard she died on the way to the hospital. So ya, maybe dying riding a motorcyle ain't for me....


*Here's another thought, what about instant decapitation? It's apparently painless if it happened fast enough. The creepy thing about that is, if that happens it apparently takes a good 10 seconds for the blood in your brain to drain and from what I've heard you're still alive without a body and are able to actually move your eyes around but thats all you can do until the blood drains out of your brain.
 
An explosion for me, just as long as it kills me straight away. I'd hate to suffer even a little before I have to die.
 
I'm getting a bit sick of reading these posts, literally:sick:
It's not that I'm a wuss, it's something about my bloodpressure. I once passed out listening to a similar story from a friend:yuck:
First thread I just CANT read (again), lol.
 
Electrocuted due to dodgy electrics, on stage in front of a million people just after wailing the most face melting solo ever in the history of music. When I collapse, I want to fall on my guitar neck and have it lodge right through me, and stay like that in the coffin too.

Now thats a true rockstar death! Rock on! The perfect guitar for that would probably be the BC Rich guitars, the way the knecks form the shape of devil horns adds an even bigger chance of an impalememt.
 
James, it should be an Ibanez TRIPLE-neck! Like Steve Vai's, but in that shiny metal finish you're aways going on about.

Me? In my sleep, or driving an F1 car.
