Worst Way To Die?

Read this in a book.

Slowly skinned alive while hanging upside down and with an IV of fluids pumping into you. The hanging upside down and fluids make it hard for you to pass out from the pain. So you stay conscious while inches of your skin get torn from your body.

That or the sloth guy from SE7EN.

Some of the medieval **** is quite nasty.

Thanks! That would've worked, but in fact I've already chosen cremation in my will. You know, one less thing to worry about....

Best way to go: like a mosquito - you're buzzing around someone's bedroom when suddenly two enormous hands come out of nowhere and it's all over before you know it.

What's worse: being buried alive or being cremated alive?

You can still have your cremains pressed into an LP or made into a jewel!

This has the prosaic touch of genuine old-guy anxiety. Don't worry, OH, that kind of stuff only happens to other people

It has all the ultimate despair of starvation and deprivation with your most familiar setting becoming a scene of absolute horror comparable to any other imaginable. Neighbors so close. The telephone so close but all out of reach. And with every noble push to fight out of it the weaker and more exhausted you become. And the horror when the deep resignation overwhelms you and you have to accept that this absurd, ridiculous situation is unbeatable and ultimately fatal.

The bronze bull thing where they stick you in a bronze bull and set it on fire. The acoustics of your screams coming from it is supposed to sound like an angry bull.

A Schwarzenegger movie. Death is instant, but the one-liner will haunt your afterlife.

Reminds me of something a guy told me. He said that he was going to slit a straight edger's throat (tension between my friends and the bitch ass paap crew, who were straight edgers that take breaks on week ends, yes this whole situation is retarded) and whisper "was it worth it?" into their ear as they die so it would echo for eternity. He kept repeating "was it worth it?" over and over again to bring his point home far beyond what was necessary. I was like, "that'll get really annoying after a while".

Same dude also has a viral video of him jumping out of a speeding police car.

Is he unaware that cochlear functions cease operating upon death?

They actually light a fire under it so it heats up slowly and you basically roast. The smoke from your burning flesh passes out through the bull's nostrils. The dude who fabricated the very first one for his emperor was forced into it as a test run. The emperor was pleased with the results and it was used often thereafter.
