How would you do it? Bonus points for most creative ideas, nothing graphic or disturbing please. Me? I'd blow myself up with about 50 hydrogen bombs and be remembered as the man who killed the world. :smallbiggrin:

Well, I'd be on a roof, and by the edge would be a man with a gun aimed not quite at me, and he's got a remote trigger for a bomb. I'll run at him, he'll shoot me, as I fall over, I'll push him off the edge, we both go over, he pulls the trigger on the detonator, and I die an almost-hero.

Not sure if this would be disturbing to some people, if it is, I'll get rid of it.

On an ordinary day, I'll be walking by a water tower (or something of the sort). There's a man on top, standing at the edge, and he yells "I'm gonna jump!!!". I say to myself "He's not gonna jump, they never--" CRUNCH, and he lands on me.

Never said it had to be extravagant :smalltongue:.

But who'd remember you? :smalltongue:

I would fall out of a very high plane and die of a heart attack just before hitting the ground.

or maybe sexual exhaustion. :smallwink:

sexual exhaustion.

This.

But really, I would want to die doing something. Saving someone, in service to the country, something honorable. I would rather die at fifty doing something to help others than at ninety from heart failure.

Okay...

Right now? I'd make in a televised event as I and a team of scientists create a suit from a bunch of junk and military surplus to go and fight terrorists. And I can't come back until they are all dead. Then I save the world from terror and come home, where the girl I like will welcome me in her own special way.

Then I die of sexual exhaustion.

Suicide.

I would jump off a 10-story building.

However, the fall wouldn't kill me. The shotgun spray to the face from the window on the 9th floor would.

As the old man, who was threatening his wife with his gun because she was being a -something-, accidently discharged the shotgun.

The case would be listed as Murder.

The investigating detective would find that the old man routinly threatens his wife with the weapon, and that both parties are fully aware that the man hasn't had the gun loaded in over 40 years.

The case would be listed as Wrongful Manslaughter.

So, as he digs deeper... he finds out that the couples son, who was in a deep depression over losing his job, was trying to put his life together. He tried this, by loading his fathers shotgun, knowing his father would threaten his mother... and he prayed every night, that that would be the night that he killed her... and then the son could collect the life insurance as his father went to jail.

After putting names and dates together... the detective will come to find that the son, was none-other then the young man (me) who attempted to kill himself by jumping off the 10th-Story Building.

The case was finally listed as Suicide; even though I never would have died from the fall, due to the safety netting that was in place on the 8th-Story to protect the window-washers that were working that afternoon.

After having spammed Persistent Time Stop with Overland Flight while wearing an Amulet of Adaption so I could fly into space and spam evocation spells to destroy the alien death machine planet charging its bombardment cannons to glass the Earth's surface. The station would get a few shots off just before receiving critical damage to destroy it, and in my old age I would use the last of my power to create enough Walls of Force to absorb the blast. The enemy vanquished and myself withering from old age, I'd dispel the Time Stop while still in space.

As much as sexual exhaustion seems to top everyones list, I don't think they're thinking about how tired they'd be of it by the time they die of it. :smallwink:

I'd like to die by simply fading out of existence in front of a group of kindergardeners. Those who aren't scarred for life will forever wonder what happened to me, leading them to a life of curiosity and discovering, becoming the greatest minds on earth :smallbiggrin:

You want creative, but not graphic or disturbing? I'm not sure I can pull this off...

Piloting a VF-19 (props to those who know what this is) in battle against a telempathically linked alien race. I'm alone against hundreds of them. If I can take the leader out, the link will cause the rest of them to die as well. But I'm overwhelmed by numbers. As many as I kill, I take enough hits to lose control. I eject as my craft disintegrates, nothing but powered combat armor (think Lancer's Cyclone) between me and oblivion. Firing my jets, I sink vibroblades into the alien prince. As he dies, his mecha explodes, and I'm too close. My last feeling is satisfaction at having single-handedly exterminated an entire species as I plummet toward the earth.

Eh. Creepy much? Not really, methinks. Or maybe I'm just immune to that kind of stuff. :smallwink:

I'd die in heroic sacrifice, except at the time of my death if would be viewed in a much more negative, "why did he do that?", even to the point of My-Death-is-Just-the-Beginning way. But after centuries of ridicule, people will slowly discover that what I did was right and praise a me and beg for my forgiveness (if religion is still around then).

Or, if that doesn't occur, then in complete peace. :smallbiggrin:

Kigganaku

i'd wake up after being tranquilized in a sterilized whitewashed doorless room with a two way mirror allowing someone unseen to observe me. as i rub my eyes and try to focus on my blurry surroundings a voice devoid of emotion would inform me that i've been injected with a toxin and i have twenty days left to live. the voice will continue to inform me that there is an antidote, but i have to make it from scratch from materials in the room. upon closer examination of my surroundings, i'd find a work bench, some tools, two pie dishes, and a copy of finnegans wake that was once possessed by a professor of contemporary literature named douglas patterson. not being a biochemist or tony stark, i engross myself in james joyce's work, noticing several notes in the margin. the further i go into the book, the more i learn about the person douglas patterson was based on which parts of the text he remarked on, until i find i'm no longer in a twisted sealed sterile experiment but i'm in fact douglas patterson at which point my soul will have transmigrated, nullifying my previous existence.

This is from the internet, but I'm not positive where.

Find a building that is not tall enough to kill you, but tall enough that you'd break a few bones jumping off.
Get some piano wire and make a noose out of it.
Put the noose on, and superglue your hands to the side of your head.
Anchor the wire to something, obviously, and jump off the side of the building. The wire will slice through your neck on the way down, and it will look to the people who find your body like you tore your own head off.

V Yeah, other option is take a bullet for someone close to me, but you know, in case that would give the bad guys way too much satisfaction.

Anywho, I'd like to die doing something selfless, and right. Meh. Pretty generic. Let's fix that.

I'd like to die in some way that... Oh shoot. Creative juices just aren't flowing.

Hmm...

Dying rescuing a colony of koalas would be nice.

Either that, or I'd want to die in such a manner that brings me back from the dead with super powers. Like, falling into a vat of radiactive leeches, and I come back with the power to absorb stuff from people, Rogue style. And be immune to her powers. Then we'd get together and Un-Life would be great.

2008-08-16, 12:11 PM
I'd probably like to die in my sleep but it's not very original. I think one awesome way to die is if someone were to stab you with a knife and as you slowly bleed to death you manage to wrest the knife from your attacker and proceed to kill him and cut his body into multiple pieces. You'd both be dead but you'd certainly win the contest for best murder despite originally being the victim.

Forget the H bombs, here's how I'm going down:

My friends and I are the only scientists able to stop the zombie invasion but through the whole movie adventure I've been superfluous. Then at the end we're almost to the military base but there's this bridge and the zombies as following us. I tell them to go on without me and fight the zombies 'til the make it into the fortress/base, then I jump off the bridge onto the mad scientist who created the zombie's helicopter and use my Claymore to smash the rotor before it cuts me in half. As all of this happens I play dramatic music loudly on my Ipod.

OR:

At the gates of some evil kingdom probably ruled by a mad god I have to buy a friend time to assasinate said mad god, so I charge headlong into the enemy army, buying the rest of the group time, armed only with said Claymore and wearing a chain**** and awesome cloak.... and pants of some sort too... anyway, so then they show me fighting and I go down and the baddies pile on me and I burst up and scream to the sky, "I love you ____!!!" and they pull me down and kill me. Oh, and I'm all bloody when I shout too. In the background some sweet music is playing.

Only one way to die marvelously: clutching the hand of the one you love, letting a single tear fall down your face as you realize that they're dead. You give up, and doctors rush in as double flatlines harmonize their tale of woe into infinity.

Or, with a really dumb look on your face as you realize that someone just killed you, without you knowing who they are or how it happened.

There's a few ways I'd like to die. As a Young man, as I am now, I'd like to die in a good act, like me stopping to help at a road accident, only to be run over by a car driving bye, where the driver was staring at the accident. Then, thanks to my Organs, the children in the first accident will live (1 Liver, slightly foxed).

If I ever do join the forces, then, If I am to die then, I'd like the VC, something totally awesome and Bad Arse, the VC dosn't actually have to be posthoumously awarded, but I'd like to die defusing a Biological terror Weapon, or leading a Bayonet Charge to save a wounded comrade.

If I make it to be old, and, as everyone has to die, this is how I want to Die:

Of Old Age, on a Crisp Autum Evening. I am very old, and have taken my Morning Walk around my Farmyard, and looked out across the tree's and woodland, My Son(s) and Grandsons do the work now. I've taken down one of my Old Bows, and Managed a Few Shots despite my rehumatism, I've stolen one of the jam tarts my daughter in law is cooking from the Baking oven of the Aga, (Not as good as her mother in law used to make, but i shan't tell her).

I Look in My Room, at the Trophys of things gone by, at the memories and photographs, Look at the One of Me and my Late wife. Lie down for a Nice Nap, and Go to the Long Sleep of My Fathers, till the world is Renewed.

My Sons Shall Wrap me in the Skin of the Biggest Bision I ever Hunted, and will Burn me on a Giant Pyre, with my Bow, and a few other goods.

I have a way of bringing about an hilarious end to my own existence. Credit goes to a guy somewhere on the old WOTC star wars forum (before SAGA, that is).

Swap Vader's oxy tank with helium and then let him chase you throughout the entire breadth and length of the Death Star, waving the helium bottle at him (and winking) whenever I managed to gain a bit on him.

Try to make him talk as much as possible, especially in front of his Stromies.

Eventually he'll force crush my larynx or slice me with his saber, but I'd die a happy bastard...

Suicide.

I would jump off a 10-story building.

However, the fall wouldn't kill me. The shotgun spray to the face from the window on the 9th floor would.

As the old man, who was threatening his wife with his gun because she was being a -something-, accidently discharged the shotgun.

The case would be listed as Murder.

The investigating detective would find that the old man routinly threatens his wife with the weapon, and that both parties are fully aware that the man hasn't had the gun loaded in over 40 years.

The case would be listed as Wrongful Manslaughter.

So, as he digs deeper... he finds out that the couples son, who was in a deep depression over losing his job, was trying to put his life together. He tried this, by loading his fathers shotgun, knowing his father would threaten his mother... and he prayed every night, that that would be the night that he killed her... and then the son could collect the life insurance as his father went to jail.

After putting names and dates together... the detective will come to find that the son, was none-other then the young man (me) who attempted to kill himself by jumping off the 10th-Story Building.

The case was finally listed as Suicide; even though I never would have died from the fall, due to the safety netting that was in place on the 8th-Story to protect the window-washers that were working that afternoon.

Cheater.

Seriously Weird True Stories, right?

Anyway, gotta be sexual exhaustion.

You want creative, but not graphic or disturbing? I'm not sure I can pull this off...

Piloting a VF-19 (props to those who know what this is) in battle against a telempathically linked alien race. I'm alone against hundreds of them. If I can take the leader out, the link will cause the rest of them to die as well. But I'm overwhelmed by numbers. As many as I kill, I take enough hits to lose control. I eject as my craft disintegrates, nothing but powered combat armor (think Lancer's Cyclone) between me and oblivion. Firing my jets, I sink vibroblades into the alien prince. As he dies, his mecha explodes, and I'm too close. My last feeling is satisfaction at having single-handedly exterminated an entire species as I plummet toward the earth.

Look at my sig. PM me your favourite uniform and plane and I'll set up the second valkyrie squad before you could say Fire Bomber.

Meanwhile you could be my second-in command in the VF 25 Squad :D

And on topic, I always wanted to die on a heroic sacrifice. But with not much pain, please. Something like... huh, offering myself to be a hostage on a bank heist gone awry and letting the cute girl away.

Then I got shot in the resulting gunfight, preferably while covering another hostage.

But I know what kind of death that I wouldn't want. Drowning seems scary. As with on a not-so-sudden plane crash (the kind where you know you're falling from 20.000 feet)

I have a way of bringing about an hilarious end to my own existence. Credit goes to a guy somewhere on the old WOTC star wars forum (before SAGA, that is).

Swap Vader's oxy tank with helium and then let him chase you throughout the entire breadth and length of the Death Star, waving the helium bottle at him (and winking) whenever I managed to gain a bit on him.

Try to make him talk as much as possible, especially in front of his Stromies.

Eventually he'll force crush my larynx or slice me with his saber, but I'd die a happy bastard...

As long as my life insurance policies pay out, I don't care about the details.

(This means no homicide, no suicide, and nothing that gets called an act of war.)

If my Accidental Death & Dismemberment policy can pay out too, that'd be even better.

And if I could somehow have about three months' or more foreknowledge of my own death, that'd be best of all 'cause then I could buy even more life insurance policies. Texas is a communal property state, and I'd really rather not stick my husband with my credit card bills and nothing with which to pay them.

I'd like to be the first death in the war for the independence of the Pan Pacific League. I'd be in my gigantic powered armor, wielding a twenty foot long chain-axe, and jump-jetting into the middle of the gigantic Leman Russtank battalion, and ripping them to shreds with said axe and my bare (if you don't count gigantic powered gauntleted) hands before having a desperate driver press the "nuclear self destruct" button.

Alternatively, standing in front of the worlds biggest largest (read: two thousand feet tall) amp, axe (different axe) or possibly stupid-looking keytar in hand, with a walkie-talkie, asking my friend in the underground bunker, "Are you sure this is a good idea?" "C'mon, don't wimp out on me now, don't you want to play the world's loudest power chord?"

Step 1: buy my own travelling carnival (must have rides and carnivorous animals)
Step 2: set up the most dangerous rides (any that go up high and upside-down are a must)
Step 3: Have the animals able to be released at the press of a button
Step 4: hire a sociopath to operate the rides and bird release
Step 5: grab as much festival food as I can eat, consume it, then stuff more into my clothes.
Step 6: set up hi-def video cameras
Step 7: Ride the dangerous rides with no precautions taken
Step 8: fall to my death.
Step 9: Animals are released and consume my festival-food-filled corpse
Step 10: have the video of my death and the eating of my corpse put on the internet.
Step 11: Acheive fame
Step 12: ????

Nono, I'd die as part of the ritual to become a lich.

First, may I just say how heartened I am to see so many wise souls choosing the path of Lichdom. Should you ever pass the final barrier into the coalesced awesome that Lichdom entails, the Army Of The Red Spear is always recruiting...



I have died, but it was a quick skull strike at my ascention to lich, because they spirit-bound me right away afertwards.



Now, were I to be faced with the implausible hypothetical situation of a final death, I would be slightly more creative.


And then, the world shall rue the day of my death, for it shall be the last day there shall ever be!

Which is to say, I'll blow up the sun.

You see, here is where you seperate the Liches from the...non-liches. You're thinking too small, my fiend.

I would stand atop reality-splitting spacial distortion, outside on the hull of a Liche's Wrath class superdreadnought, screaming dire imprecations that rang through all of Reality, finally ending with "If I shall fall, I shall ensure that EVERYTHING shall die with me!!!!" (Note the extra exclaimantion marks - point of professionalism for your dying rant. No reason for getting sloppy at the, well, twelveth I guess, hour.) The I would trigger a self-destruct spell, powered beyond the limits of time and space by my black, bitter hatred of everything, so foul that merest whisper of it would cause dieties to go mad and slay themselves. I would take that power and strike out, not just at the corporeal universe but the very fundemenatal structure of Reality itself, smashing it into an infinite agony for the long moments before everything, even the nothingness itself, is erased, absolutely destroying everything that ever was, that is, or ever would have been. Then the shockwave would spiral outwards, shattering all other Realities in an implacable tidalwave of beautiful utter annhilation.

See, now that's thinking about the big picture.



Fortunately, I am so enormously powerful and my will beyond death is too strong for such and event to ever take place. (Modesty is for the living, who have much to be modest about...)

The easy way: "You shall not pass!"

The semi-creative way: Death Defying sword fight...on the edge of an active volcano...with Skeletor...during a lightning storm. We both tumble into the lava.

Creative Way: After winning the nomination, I walk back towards the hotel, but then I hear gunshots: the mob has taken hostages, and they're being held in the Watergate hotel. Remembering my years in the service, I call the police, and, not taking any chances, run into the hotel, quickly incapacitate the badly-trained door guy and take his SMG. Slowly but surely, I take out each of the mobsters, but take a fatal wound to the chest. The bullet slowly makes its way towards my heart, but not before the police arrive, and the mob boss and I have a final confrontation with him fifteen stories up. Knowing I'm not going to come out of this hotel...unless. I charge at him, taking an entire clip of ammo to the stomach, but tackling him, shattering the window, sending us both falling to our deaths. Martin Scorcese makes a movie about me. It wins best picture and Aaron Eckhart wins best actor for portraying me.

I would like to go taking down an airplane full of nazis that were frozen and are now trying to take over the world. A giant fight would ensue and I'd throw a bunch of gernades at them and jump out of the plane with a huge explosion behind me. As I laugh and go to pull the parachute string, I accidentally pull the pin on a remaining gernade in my belt.

Boom.

Ooh, I've actually thought long and hard about this one, due to my spending 2 years on a near-death bed due to Stage 4 Cancer + Chemotherapy (not fun). Here's what I came up with:

I'm in the US Senate. There's a bill written as a knee-jerk response to a complex tragedy that would do very, very bad things to our country (repeal freedom of speech, jeopardize the constitution, whatever). It's up for a vote, and I'm filibustering against it because I know it has enough votes to pass if I don't. For hours, days, I'm standing and talking and slowly changing the hearts and minds of a nation. The opposition sees this and releases a bear into the chambers, whereupon I am eaten but not before inspiring 41 fellow Senators to not pass a vote of cloture.

Cowboy BeBop death, me getting shot with a dozen doves flying around behind me, causing the person I love to go off and explode people with grenades.

...or, you know, dying for the people I love, or a nice peaceful death while I sleep.

I think the best response to this is from a friend I had in high school.
He said he wanted to jump from a helicopter, wearing minimal clothes, and holding a spear. The goal is to jump from the helicopter and land on a polar bear and either die from the fall, the bear, or if he somehow won and survived the fall the exposure.

As for myself... aw heck why not. I'll defuse an atomic bomb threatening civilians and go out from radiation poisoning or the trigger explosive going off. Because I'm cheesy enough to wwant to die doing something cool. XD

How would you do it? Bonus points for most creative ideas, nothing graphic or disturbing please. Me? I'd blow myself up with about 50 hydrogen bombs and be remembered as the man who killed the world. :smallbiggrin:

Very kind of you. Also, I have to die. All of us do.

Mors ultima linea rerum est

If I was able to choose how I died? Well, I've always joked about it so I'd like to die peacefully in my sleep sometime after my 113th birthday.

Eh, I don't see anything romantic or nice about dying through saving someone else. To be perfectly honest, I would never want to give my life to save anyone else's, or even a good many else's. Maybe if given the decision, I would make the 'right' one, especially if it's, say, a younger family member or something, but I'll be as far from happy or satisfied with it as a person can get XP .

Personally, I like the idea of dying wrapped up in my comfortable blanket, warm and cozy, between wakefulness and dream, then BAM! dead without warning. I heard that jumping out/falling into freezing ocean waters actually makes the person have a very pleasant feeling too, like it felt really good and the mind blanks out or something, before dying, rather than being painful or panicky.

Or, it would be nice if, in my old age after becoming a successful creator of various mangas, books, and other creative pieces, by some supernatural powers I could know I was going to die the day before my death. Then I would be able to let someone (like a hospital) know beforehand of my death, so no poor innocent soul will randomly find my rotting body, then put together all my lovely works and precious material goods and surround myself with them. Reminisce, surround myself with my blanket, open a window, and die with no regrets or last-minute second-guessing.

well, most probably i will get the standard ticket (in my sleep or sth. usual), but
interesting ways to die:

heroic sacrifice(well nothing incredibly important; I would just prefer that when it ends, it could help improve some lives (apart from soylent green or my life insurance :smallconfused:)

option number two (the 1984-way-out): (Uhm well whoever hasnt read 1984: spoiler and READ IT!)
trying to oppose some kind of totalitarian regime,inevitably dying from my personal hamartia after getting deported to some kind of room 101 and broken.

"But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother."

Heroic failure, that's it.
Japanese has a special word for it (The japanese love losers and have a special place in their heart for failing heroes), but I forgot it. Damn:smallmad:

I'd want to follow in the footsteps of Jean Danjou or the nameless viking that stood off the roman army by himself. Heroic last stand. Likely get schools named after me if people knew who I was.

Edit: and yeah, sexual exhaustion.

I'd die by somehow getting hit by the apocalypse itself, survive, then look down to see a huge hole in my chest. Then I'd eat Cthulu and explode. Somehow...

If that didn't work, I'd just settle for doing something so [adjective] that Cthulu would scream and run away before I succumb to the laws of psychics and turn into a semi-sentient shotgun.

I would be killed by a pirate. Because that's the only thing cool enough to be forgiven for killing me.

Alternatively, by eating way too much fried chicken.

Beaten to death with my own arms.

Alternately, as an old man, on a cross-town bus, I would like to randomly, and without warning, explode into a fine mist, leaving the other passengers unharmed. Imagine the emotional scarring.

I would like to die in some sort of Heroic Sacrifice, preferably saving innocent lives, or sacrificing my life for the cause of freedom and the Rebellion in our dystopian future.

Alternatively, I would like to get myself an archnemesis (he will be the hero, I will be the villain) and invoke My Death is Just the Beginning (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning) because I'm a Magnificent Bastard (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MagnificentBastard) (also the Chessmaster) (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheChessmaster) as I set an incredibly complex Xanatos Roulette (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/XanatosRoulette) into action. I will then arise as a lich and force all life to serve my will.

On an aside, my death plans were never this complicated before I found TV Tropes. :smalltongue:

I would die in the middle of an epic gunfight. (Preferably after taking a ridiculously high number of bullets to the chest and finishing the other side off.) Not even one upon which The Fate of the Free World depended. Just a huge gunfight.

How would you do it?

I plan on dying at a healthy and robust 150 or so (ain't genetic engineering sweet) leading the gathered tribes of Wisconsin into a final, victorious battle against the dark mutant forces that have risen to take control of the blasted, post-apocalyptic remains of North America. Sword in hand and in full neodrakin scale armor, I'll strike the death blow against their demon-emperor, but perish in the ensuing explosion - finally overwhelmed by my wounds sustained in the previous six weeks of battle.

Hopefully I'll get a sweet monument out of the deal. :smallbiggrin:

I would be the archetypal boyfriend in a slasher movie. I would sacrifice myself to save the leading lady's life by emptying a .45 mag into the slasher's chest only to realize that he is invincible. As the camera would follow the leading lady down the stairs or out of the basement or whatever you would here my screams in the next room.

One of two ways.

The first is after a long and happy life, dying peacefully in bed.

The second? For someone I love (to protect them). Or for my beliefs (religious).
For either of those, I would take any kind of death.

If I could choose, I want it to be in the apocalypse.

Seas turning to blood, atomic explosions, comets hitting mountains, demons chasing people down the street, solar winds, magnitude 10 earthquakes, the fabric of reality shredding before our eyes- exciting s***! I don't want to miss the greatest show on the Earth.
