If you were going to die how would you like to go?

[beaker]

I thought you had died trying to answer my questions on the ask beaker thread.
And when will you answer my questions?

Never

[realityhack]

A parachute failure.

[oracleslave]

A parachute failure.

Seriously? I would have thought the last minute of descent would have been terrifying.

Seriously? I would have thought the last minute of descent would have been terrifying.

Exhilarating.

[shaunbhoy]

I want to die peacefully in my sleep.........like my grandad......and not screaming hysterically like all the passengers in his car!!

[tay]

On judgement day... just after God has come to earth and told me that I am going to heaven. Will make death a whole lot less of an annoyance. Be more like a commute.

I better start working on making sure I do some good deeds....

I better start working on making sure I do some good deeds....

I shouldn't worry. God made you a Kiwi, he probably figures you'll have suffered enough already to punish you further in the hereafter.

Sexual exhaustion in a swedish brothel.

Sadly, it's not if, but when, however in the words of Roger McGough:

Let me die a young man's death
not a clean and inbetween
the sheets holywater death
not a famous-last-words
peaceful out of breath death

When I'm 73
and in constant good tumour
may I be mown down at dawn
by a bright red sports car
on my way home
from an allnight party

Or when I'm 91
with silver hair
and sitting in a barber's chair
may rival gangsters
with hamfisted tommyguns
burst in and give me a short back and insides

Or when I'm 104
and banned from the Cavern
may my mistress
catching me in bed with her daughter
and fearing for her son
cut me up into little pieces
and throw away every piece but one

Let me die a young man's death
not a free from sin tiptoe in
candle wax and waning death
not a curtains drawn by angels borne
'what a nice way to go' death

That doesn't even rhyme

Well assuming you were doing freefall and the parachute failed at say 3-5000ft (opening alt) you'd have about another 10-12 seoonds to learn to fly.
