if you had an option on the way you want to die, how would you like to have it done?

*disclaimer- i'm not suicidal or anything, but death and questions about death interests me

well I'm not into suicide either, but if I had a choice, I'd want something spectacular.

Driving a porche out of an aeroplane and surfing on the bonnet. Then in the last few hundred metres I'd pop the trunk and have doves fly out of the boot. And also at the ground I'd have pyros spray fire into the air.

I think I'd like a clown or two in there too to lighten the mood :P

Hehehe.

Like I stated in the other thread, I would like to be mauled and/or raped by a Sasquatch. But another fun one would be being impaled by the Washington Monument. Something a little bit more tame would be dying from carbon monoxide in my sleep or cannibalism.

I would like to commit quantum suicide.

Don't blame me for the lack of fantasy, but if I could choose I would die without much noise and pain, like taking pills. Though I don't have such plans in my mind right now.

As I posted in the other thread on death, death by sexual exhaustion.

To test cryonics or other areas of scientific research.

:laugh:

Good one.

Personally, I'd like to die while deep in thought. It would be funny if I suddenly realized I don't actually exist, could prove it, and thereby vanish in a puff of logic.

...thought....

"AHA!!"

*poof*

Didnt quite make my list.

I was thinking more along the lines of dying while having my brain removed. Then regaining consciousness in a robot body which pumps nanite filled blood through my brain repairing it for the rest of eternity as I go about my boring existence and learn everything until I run out of space, then I pack it into hard drives :D Eventually becoming god to a new breed of humans on a distant planet.

Any situation so long as I can say, "There's too many of them..." beforehand.

(and yes, to answer your question, being crushed by a wall of cornflakes was taken into account)

I'd want to have spent the day with the girl i love most in this world. Spend it reading, travelling the trains and ferries, eat lunch at some great restaurants and make love in some awesome places. Then go home to some more sex, and die in my sleep, having my head hacked off from behind with a nagimaki.

hell, how many people get to have great sex, and then have their head hacked off by a nagimaki?

He did not, you sillyhead. He merely predicted that god would do it.

Hmm.. either to get beaten to death by a clown in front of a large group of children or by the cyanide.

Actually, the second one is quite serious. I'd love to have a cyanide pill necklace.

With my loved one by my side.

MWAHA!

I'd prefer if it was when the Universe or Earth exploded so that I knew no one else could experience something I couldn't. Plus I wouldn't have to worry about knowing exactly who would turn up to my funeral.

I'd like to die without knowing it.

I think I heard G Burns answer this "I'd like to go while coming" If I can't do that, just quickly and painlessly and hopefully laughing.

Shocked to death by a sweeping and romantic kiss from the boy I love... Nah. Just kidding. Watch out. I might gag.

Anyway.

I would like to die binging on my favorite food.

Now that i think about it ( yes ENFPs sometimes think) this is kind of morbid.:dead:

i'd rather be blasted into a black hole somewhere in the universe

maybe i would end up in some alternate universe, but hey it would be worth the shot anyways

I would want to die with some novelty. I like the black hole idea, and maybe that's what I would choose. Yes; I want to die by being sucked into a supermassive black hole on my 125th birthday.

I don't care as long as I don't have that "oh shit" *BAM* experience. I'd like to not know my death was coming.

I would trick all the people in the world that I hate into assembling in one place so I can do something like:

I'd lke to die for a good reason, not one of those *oops! I just slipped on some of my spilled cranberry juice, fell down the stairs and cracked my head open against some kind of plastic cat statue* As long as my death isn't like that I'd be happy with it.

Is there an anti-Godwin's law for referencing Dr. Strangelove?

Metafire

I wouldn't like it if I died while still being in this human form. So I am looking forward to uploading my mind into a computer. This would grant me some kind of relative immortality, but there are still some nice possibilities of "death".

1. Merging my identity with a huge group mind that assimilates my knowledge, skills and memories.
2. Letting someone pull the plug, so I am no longer in active mode. If someone really needed me again they could reactivate me quite easily.
3. Or maybe someone will just build a nova bomb and blow up the whole solar system before terran intelligence expands throughout the universe. Game over.

I don't know what an anti-Godwin's law is, but I'm pretty sure I would've ignored it anyways. :p

From wikipedia:

"Godwin's Law (also known as Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies) is an adage formulated by Mike Godwin in 1990. The law states:

"As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one."

...

There are many corollaries to Godwin's law, some considered more canonical (by being adopted by Godwin himself) than others invented later. For example, there is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress. This principle is itself frequently referred to as Godwin's Law."

I'd like to be unconscious when that happens... as stated above.
I would recommend sleeping pills or drug overdose.
Shot to the head might do the trick as well, since other quick and painless methods are available.

Yeah, painless in old age is the way to go.

However, if I ever get to a point where I would kill myself, then skydiving without a parachute would be an amazing, truly amazing way to go. The thrill of literally facing your doom while overviewing the world and being completely free and detached is fascinating to me.

But right now I prefer the jump with a parachute though.

Run over by a kid (4-8 years old) trying to "drive" their parents car down the driveway. That oughta show the punk and they'll have nightmares so I can haunt them without physically needing to be there.

Anything quick and painless. Beyond those standards, I'm not too picky.

Go to bed and don't feel a single thing. To experience the other side as a dream... and never come back.
I would also like to die being fully aware. Eager... curious... explaining to the people around me what is going on, what I feel and what I see... I mean, to die like some kind of "explorer of death experience".
Once I had a dream of a nuclear plant going to explode. Everybody was running away and I said to myself "why running? this is going to melt us.." so anyway why not dying trying to stop it? so I run to the plant while everybody escapes... suddenly it explode right in front of me... nice dream... I would like that.
