How would you like to die?

[EternalOptimist]

Fame at last. as long as I get there I dont care how......

thats a good point that, you got me thinking now.

Here another question for you to ask BP

'How much of your remaining time would you give up, if you could die famous ?'

Dr Livingstone met a lot of other Europeans in Africa, not just Stanley.
One of them had been stalked and attacked by a lion, the lion had been in the process of eating him when it was chased off by askaris. (african soldier/porters)

He said that after the initial terror, a calm and peace decended upon him as he watched the lion chewing away. He said God was indeed merciful and it reinforced his religeous conviction.
(He made a good recovery incidentally)

Dunno, but I would like to be buried at sea.
Possibly on a flaming Viking longboat.

I will never Die as I was never Born.

[TheFaQQer]

Either

(a) quietly in my sleep, but not after a long illness

(b) in a Swiss clinic, after being diagnosed with something nasty, but having put my affairs in order and explained it to my children

(c) in a blaze of glory

Following on from the life expectancy thread : How would you like to die?

In perfect health...

in a bizarre vacuum cleaning accident.

The judge is looking me in the eye

'.... and further more, that you did knowingly pull the pin from said hand grenade before forcing it down Anthony Blairs throat, and that you knew that the bayonet was rusty, contrary to article 56 of the Geneva convention, before sticking it up Gordon Browns ring-piece.
For all these crimes, you will be taken to a place.....'

I'd like to go as the result of a minor equipment failure at around 40-60 metres under water.
You'd be nicely narked, and slip into unconsciousness dreaming of pretty fishies.

Conversely, I'd absolutely hate to be burned at the stake. That would hurt.

at least you could sing a song as you go...

I am the god of hell fire, and I bring you
Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
I'll see you burn

You fought hard and you saved and earned
But all of it's going to burn
And your mind, your tiny mind
You know you've really been so blind
Now 's your time, burn your mind
You're falling far too far behind
Oh no, oh no, oh no, you're gonna burn

Fire, to destroy all you've done
Fire, to end all you've become
I'll feel you burn

You've been living like a little girl
In the middle of your little world
And your mind, your tiny mind
You know you've really been so blind
Now 's your time, burn your mind
You're falling far too far behind
OOhhh
Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
You're gonna burn, you're gonna burn
You're gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn

Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
Fire, I'll take you to bed
