What is the most embarrasing way to die.

In My Humble Opinion

What caused the glass to break was his throwing himself at it while it was still rebounding from his first assault. Sympathetic vibration.

He was an associate at Holden Day Wilson who was trying to impress the new articling students at an office party.

Seeing as how the primary concern of any articling sudent is to be hired on as an associate after being called to the bar, I’d say this fellow went beyond the call of duty in ensuring that there were openings available. The only problem was that the firm folded shortly thereafter.

The most embarrasing in my family was the death of my great-grandfather. He was old, senile, and depressed, and he attempted to commit suicide. While trying to tie a noose to a rafter in the garage, he fell from the ladder, broke his neck and died.

23

On a dare, seeing if you can break your own neck by twisting your head with your hands, and succeeding.

As I wondered whether or not it’s possible, I caught myself reaching for my own head, and was stopped only by the image of myself lying paralyzed on the ground, mumbling “Kill me. Please. Kill me. I don’t want to live as a self-induced quad.”

I remember seeing something like this in a Ben Stiller movie, where he played a junkie.

Oh yeah, the name of the movie is PERMANENT MIDNIGHT.
With Ben Stiller and Liz Hurley. Ohh lah lah!

From the 1999 "Darwin “Natural Selection” Awards

John Pernicky (the late) and his friend, (the late) Sal Hawkins, of the great state of Washington, decided to
attend a local Metallica concert at the George Washington Amphitheatre. Having no tickets (but having had 18 beers between them), they thought it would be easy to “hop” over the nine-foot fence and sneak into the show. They pulled their pick-up truck over to the fence and the plan was for Mr. Pernicky, (who was 100-pounds heavier than Mr. Hawkins) to hop the fence and then assist his friend over.

Unfortunately for Mr. Pernicky, there was a 30-foot drop on the other side of the fence. Having heaved himself over, he found himself crashing through a tree. His fall was bruptly halted (and broken, along with his arm, as it were) by a large branch that snagged him by his shorts. Dangling from the tree with a broken arm, he looked down and saw some bushes below him. (Possibly) figuring the bushes would break his fall, he removed his pocket-knife and proceeded to cut away his shorts to free himself from the tree.

Finally free, Mr. Pernicky crashed 25-feet into holly bushes. The sharp leaves scratched his entire body and now, without the protection of his shorts, a holly branch penetrated his rectum. To make matters worse, on landing, his pocket-knife penetrated his thigh three inches.

On seeing his friend in considerable pain and agony, Mr. Hawkins decided to throw him a rope and pull him to safety (now he thinks of the “S” word!) by tying the rope to the pick-up truck and slowly driving away.

However, in his drunken haste/state, he put the truck into reverse and crashed through the fence landing on his friend and killing him.

Police arrived to find the crashed pick-up with its driver thrown 100 feet from the truck and dead at the scene from massive internal injuries.

Upon moving the truck, they found John under it, half-naked, scratches on his body, a holly stick in his rectum, a knife in his thigh, and his shorts dangling from a tree branch 25-feet in the air.

I was travelling in DC and had some time on my hands. I decided to go to a movie. I went to one called “Paris is Burning.” I had no idea what it was about, but the title was intriguing. It didn’t take long before I realized it was a documentary about a transvestites’ ball or beauty contest. I also realized that there was only me and one other man in the theater.

I started thinking about what it would look like if I had a brain aneurysm and died during the middle of the movie. That’s when I decided to get up and leave. LOL!

I think the Senator in The Birdcage had an embarrasing death. He was a Christian Coalition, religious right type who had a heart attack while having sex with an underage black man.

not that there is anyting wrong with that of course.

29

Wooley. I believe that the story about the two Metallica fans was discovered to be a UL… good story, tho!

30

The glass didn’t actually break. The whole pane popped loose out of its frame.

31

Off to IMHO.

32

…for no apparent reason…

33

I believe the Senator from the Birdcage actually died having sex with an underage black prostitute. I remember the scene of her being interviewed on a TV… “He said, ‘the money’s on the dresser, chocolate’, and then he just died.” What a way to go.

34

OK, I heard this story, maybe we’ve all heard it. Maybe it’s true, maybe it’s UL, but it’s entertaining anyway.

Guy has one of those bathtubs with the wide flat rims. Guy sticks a plunger to the rim of the tub. Guy greases up the plunger handle, grabs the shower curtain rod, and uh, starts doing chin-ups. Shower curtain rod breaks, guy impales himself on the plunger and dies.

True? Maybe not. But if it is, I have to wonder if the EMS crew came over, and pulled the guy off with a loud “SCHMACK” as the plunger popped off.

35

A truly fowl way to die.

36

And inevitably involving the corpse clad in women’s underwear.

And usually he’s a Member of Parliament.

Although I read about a farmer found like that, out in his barn, hanging from some piece of farm equiptment. Apparently it had some bulldozer-like attatchment that raises and loweres when you pull a lever. Unfortuatly the rope he attached to the lever came loose and…

37

…most of which are made up.

38

You just couldn’t resist, uh? :stuck_out_tongue:

here in the Bay Area a couple of years ago there was a gun enthusiast, who in the middle of his demonstration with friends to prove that guns are safe, shot himself in the head and died.

his obituary appeared in my college alumni magazine, so i’m pretty sure it’s true.

talk about a self-contradicting statement…

Mine are morons who do the world a service by doing themselves in by their own stupidity.

Like poor Jason Jinks, who decided it would be a good idea to look for his missing hat by opening his car door and going 25 mph in reverse. He hit his head when he hit the brakes and fell out. He died three days later.
