watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten worst
ways to die scalp Herman for this list
will be ranking the most unpleasant and
frightening ways folks have shuffled off
this mortal coil while we’re not
intending to disturb or disgust anyone
with this list graphic imagery and
language are a big part of the subject
matter here so be warned number 10
impalement if you’re like most people
then you try your best to get through
your day without having a large sharp
object run through one end of your body
and out the other side oh look at that
I’ve been impaled impalement may not be
the most common form of death and it
isn’t a speedy one either as the person
can live in agony for days depending on
how they’re impaled she’s a sweet girl
but I couldn’t save her from the pole
hmm
she started stripping nope boss impaled
her on a pole when he caught of skimming
tips whoo historical Romanian Prince
Vlad the third or Vlad Dracula loved the
execution method so much it earned him
his nickname Vlad the Impaler thankfully
today you’re more likely to see a
villain in some hyper-violent movie be
impaled than at any time during your
daily routine which is definitely a very
good thing
[Music]
little some steam Bennett number nine
via wood chipper also known as getting
mulched and over the diamond god n’gou
turn you into mulch although it’s best
known as an execution method thanks to
that classic scene in Fargo wherein
Marge Gunderson stumbles across a
murderer disposing of a body there’s
little humor to be found in death by
mulching according to the CDC from 1992
to 2002 31 people were killed in the
United States in wood chipper related
deaths of those 31 all were male with an
average age of 35
while 27 percent were of Hispanic
heritage have you ever thought about
killing me
oh yeah really sure how would you do it
wood chipper a wood chipper 42 percent
of the men were groundskeepers and 16
percent were machine operators with a
yearly average of two hundred and four
chip er related non fatal accidents
however mulching deaths are relatively
low though terrifying number eight
asphyxiation
asphyxiation refers specifically to a
severe deficiency of oxygen in the brain
and body as a result of abnormal or
restrained breathing and can be caused a
number of different ways these include
choking on food or smoke drug overdoses
and respiratory diseases or seizures and
they can result in major brain damage or
death should they go untreated
sadly asphyxiation can also come as a
result of violent crime as in the case
of strangulation helping to make this
one of the most frightening ways to die
number seven being skinned the act of
flying or skinning occurs in the
restaurant business everyday plan fish
is on the menu being skinned alive is
another story altogether
he will skinned alive and is usually
referenced when discussing such eras as
the Age of Exploration where expeditions
into unfriendly territory sometimes
didn’t go as planned start I don’t feel
nothing now this heard the sound of
knife scraping against my skull although
not always fatal the ancient Native
American practice of scalping falls
under this category and is often seen in
film and television as a means of
retribution execution or trophy hunting
that everyone talks when I start Pete
any way you slice it being skinned is
probably pretty bad news and you’d be
well-advised to avoid it whenever
possible but she probably didn’t need us
to tell you that didja number six being
crushed when we see movie villains being
crushed by giant buildings or structures
that’s normally the end of it there’s a
big cloud of dust and poof one dead
witch and that’s all the names of the
wicked witch things in reality however
being crushed causes an enormous amount
of trauma to the body even if only one
limb or appendage suffers the damage
this is due to the fact that an
excessive amount of toxins can rush to
the crush point causing kidney failure
or heart attacks even if that person
thinks he or she is in the clear not to
mention you’d likely go into shock
during such an event making this one a
really miserable way to go number five
drowning drowning is the fifth leading
cause of accidental death in the United
States according to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention with a
reported 10 people losing their lives
every day beneath the waves the body can
enter a state of shock similar to what
you’d experience if you were trapped
under ice or snow the mouth would be
ajar in an O shape while the head is
usually tilted back in an attempt to get
air into the lungs it doesn’t take long
for a drowning victim to lose
consciousness usually 90 seconds or so
and severe brain damage can occur if
that person isn’t resuscitated after
four minutes underwater as a result
knowing the signs of drowning is key for
beach and pool safety at all times
number 4 disease or illness what
happenes I have AIDS
sadly disease and illness are part of
our daily lives I have cancer what do
you mean you have cancer I have cancer
at it what do you want me to say the
odds are that you or a loved one have
fought a particularly serious illness
during your lifetime with heart disease
serving as the number one cause of death
in the world according to the World
Health Organization other major ailments
on the list include cancer strokes and
lung disease all of which have claimed
countless
knives throughout history modern
medicine has done wonders in developing
treatments for many of these illnesses
but these diseases still affect us all
number three buried alive burying you
you’re waking our neighbors
claustrophobia the fear of closed in our
small spaces is one shared by many
people around the world it can be
triggered by a wide variety of
situations depending on the severity or
sensitivity of a person’s fear for some
simply wearing tight clothes or being in
cramped elevators can do the trick while
others might have a panic attack
thinking about the dangers of being
buried alive whether it’s trying to
escape a coffin or digging one’s way out
of a pile of rubble the anxiety and fear
that can go along with being buried
alive are compounded by the shortage of
oxygen to the brain making this the
absolute worst way to go for anyone with
that irrational fear of being confined
this box here this box sucks I’m gonna
put you in it number two eaten alive
also known as being devoured in today’s
world there isn’t much reason to
constantly worry about being eaten by
another larger predator generally
humanity worries more about what to eat
not what’s gonna eat them that being
said men and women have still fallen
into the jaws or paws of members of the
animal kingdom whether through
misadventure or by accident people have
fallen into open enclosures at zoos and
trainers have been attacked at animal
attractions or theme parks animals can
be frightening sometimes making it
imperative that we give them the respect
and space they deserve
Estevan has pit Hey is he dead yes good
I would eat if I swallowed whole and
then there’s the fact that cannibalism
is still practiced in a few places
before we unveil our absolute worst way
to die here are a few honorable or in
this case dishonorable mentions aim for
the bushes
steena kidding me I don’t know if you
can but I’m talking to number one
immolation also known as burned alive in
1963 thich Quang Duc a Vietnamese
Buddhist monk set himself on fire in
protest of Buddhist persecution by the
South Vietnamese government Duc appeared
calm throughout the ordeal but this
monks sacrifice is far from the norm
everything and it was so dramatic and
flamboyant it just makes me wanna set
myself on fire first second and third
degree burns are intensely painful
during the emulation process despite the
fact that the human body will eventually
go into a numbing sense of shock if the
fire is not doused or otherwise
extinguished course there are other
combustive and deadly methods of murder
like burning at the stake as used during
the European witch trials and they can
even provoke carbon monoxide poisoning
all in all we’d have to say being burned
alive
sounds like a truly horrible way to go
to burn your alive
but way to go do you agree with our list
what way of death most scares you
