I just remembered a conversation i had with my brother a long time ago. I was writing a story and we were trying to find an incredibly pathetic and/or funny way to kill the main character. I have abandoned this story a long time ago, but I thought it would be fun to hear some ideas. The two I can remember are...

1. While running, he trips on his shoelaces.

2. A "Segway" accident. (yes the motorized personal vehicle)

Sexual perversion involving a vacuum cleaner goes horribly wrong.

Any version of being scared to death, especially when there's no actual threat. Such as someone really concentrated on their work, only to be deathly surprised by someone or something.

That would really suck.
Some ideas are so stupid only an intellectual could believe them (Orwell).

I LOVE how Donnie dies in the big lebowski.

There's this TV show in the states called 1000 ways to die.

One episode there was this woman who bought a large carrot at the grocery store.  Later, she got romantic with it, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, the carrot skin scratched the inside of her vagina and she ended up with an embolism from it and died on the spot.

Imagine being the one to discover her?

But this is true: some guy named Jimi Heselden once died by riding his Segway off a cliff. He was mourned by all, including the employees of the company he had recently bought....

Any form of Darwin Award worthy death is funny and ridiculously pathetic.

Did you see the one where the old guy in the wheelchair kept slamming it into an elevator because it would't open and ended up falling down an elevator shaft and dying?

Dude in Poland made his money stealing scrap steel. He found an abandoned warehouse and figured he could make good money off the elevator cables. So he breaks in, runs the elevator all the way down, and starts at the cables with an angle grinder. When the first cable breaks it flies off into the darkness, and he starts on another cable. However the sound of his angle grinder is now masking the sound of the two ton counterweight he just cut loose, which is now making its way to the bottom of the shaft at near-terminal velocity.

Zoom.....

Crash!

Splat!


Most stupid way to die I ever heard of.
