A very morbid topic but in your mind which is the worst way to die?

1) Drowning
2) Burning alive
3) Being buried alive
4) Dying in a plane crash

Very specific choices but I'm hoping you guys can come up with an answer from within the options. If you think there is possibly an even worse way though feel free to share. I'll give my thoughts once some people have given it a go.

Being Buried Alive

I chose this because it would give me ample time to think about my family with no way of seeing them again, to tell them how i feel. The heartache would be immense.

All the other options are equally bad, maybe worse physically, but they each offer a quick end, with hardly any heartache on your part.

^Fantastic answer. Not only heartache but anger at the person that did it to you, unless I guess you were buried due to some kind of natural disaster or something.

Out of all of those dying in a plane crash would be the best way to die hands down, so I can't really see anyone picking that as the worst.

Worse way is buried alive for sure. All you have are your thoughts, while you slowly perish. Ugh..gives me the creeps just thinking about it.

Yeah you wouldn't even be able to kill yourself! Would be horrifying.

I'd take plane crash. I hate anxiety and that would be, in my opinion the worst case of extreme anxiety. I would prefer buried alive, call me different, but I would like to go out with as many thoughts in my head as possible I like the reflection of the past and this way I could come to terms with acceptance of myself.

slowly bludgeoned to death

very very bad radiation poisoning imo.

im sure i dont have to explain why having your skin get all bubbly, joints go to shit, hair falling out, all while slowly going insane is probably the worst feeling in the world.

If that was one of the choices, I'd probably side with you on that one.

somehow i managed to read every post except for the OP lol, i didnt realize there was choices.

i think being burned alive would be the worst
it can take a while to die that way, and the whole process would be excruciating


i would have picked buried alive except; i think youd die a lot sooner then we, as a weegee group, expect.
youd run out of air rather quickly, unless you purposefully stayed calm and conserved air in order to gain the time to think about the life your leaving

Alright well I guess it's about time that I chime in with my own opinion. To be honest when I made this thread I had an answer already in mind and that's the same as yours CTCF, plane crash. My reasoning is similar to yours though in that it might be more because it is associated with an actual fear/anxiety of mine. When I picture dying in a plane crash, I picture a crash in which you die on impact. In such a situation you basically have nothing but your final thoughts to yourself and then bam the next second you're gone. In addition, you're not the one flying the plane so you have no control over the situation. I guess it's this feeling of helplessness that almost angers me that some people have had to die this way. Some people have said that being buried alive would be mental torture because of the time one would have to think about everything and while I completely agree with this I would argue that not having this time to think and reflect on your life is just as bad.

This might be wrong in and of itself but I also think dying in a plane crash is the most "realistic" way to die out of the options. Obviously dying in a plane crash is extremely rare but we take that chance every time we board a plane. Drowning, being buried alive or burning to death seem like things that would have to be brought on by someone else really trying to cause foul play. In the end I guess that doesn't really matter when it all comes down to it because drowning, burning to death and being buried are live are still terrible regardless of why or how they happen.

Some people thought my choice would be the "best" way to go, but I guess that's why this is such an interesting topic, most people have different opinions. You guys have definitely made some good points though, perhaps dying in a plane crash wouldn't be the worst of them all in reality... it's just the one I fear the most out of the options. So it's more of a personal opinion on that one. There are definitely a lot of other terrible ways to pass away, which are just as specific as dying in a plane crash. When I was younger, my answer probably would have been buried alive. I always feared being pronounced dead and then somehow waking up in my coffin. I often told my mom that I wanted to be buried with a string attached to a bell so I would be able to ring it when I woke up.

Well that was intense.

like i said...slowly bludgeoned to death. those filmmakers get it
