This is always a touchy subject, but I am interested to know what you think is the worst way to die. I am sorry if I do not include all of them, if you select the "other" option, please explain why. I am sorry this is in the Intellectual forum, but the answers are usually better since there is a minimum.

Murder, in particular sawing, is perhaps the worst way to die.

Honestly, I would choose drowning. It is not that physically painful, but if you think about it, it is so bad to hold your breath underwater for a minute, imagine 4 or 5..

Um, it would probably an other but since drowning was there I thought it'd be easier....if it was other it'd just be like all kinds of torture so that seemed like cheating.  That's why I voted drowning.  Not being able to breath is just shitty.

I voted terminal disease, but I actually dont think that would be the worse way. You would at least get to say good bye and come to terms with death.

Now, drowning, its slow, Im afraid of water, and you would just suffer the entire time. Does not sound like fun at all. I would have to say that drowning would be the worse way. At least for me.

Drowning, and other forms of asphyxiation. I really, really hate the feeling of an inability to breathe, more than I do the sensation of heat, or laceration, etc...

A disease such as Ebola, I guess.

Bleeding out of every orifice in your body until you basically melt into a pile of blood and guts and germs cannot be pleasant.

That or getting tortured to death.

Any way of dying sucks, it's all horrible circumstances that result in death. Ultimately the way you die doesn't matter, as you won't be alive afterwards to remember it. Think back to that saw method... we "go under the knife" all the time, but we're never awake to remember it, so it's as if it never happened.

For me, I think some form of terminal illness, such as Ebola, HIV or malaria would be the worst, as you are conscious throughout most of it, and see a slow degradation to the point of demise.

I would hate terminal disease because it is a long process.  Drowning or burning would be close.

How about:
Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot
He was not afraid to die, O brave Sir Robin
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin
He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp
Or to have his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken
To have his kneecaps split and his body burned away
And all his limbs hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin
His head smashed in and his heart cut out
And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged
And his nostrils raped and his bottom burnt off and his penis...
He is brave Sir Robin,
Brave Sir Robin who...
To fight and...............
Brave Sir Robin ran away
Bravely, ran away...away...
When danger reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
And gallantly he chickened out
Bravely talking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin

Either that or (This might sound imaginary) having your skin burned off by acid or some other substance.

I'd have to choose burning.  If you were completely surrounded in fire, every one of your touch receptors would be going off at the exact same time.  Your skin would slowly "melt" away and it would take at least 3 minutes for you to actually die (though you would probably faint from the pain beforehand.)  Being tortured by another man or dieing from a terminal disease would come next.  I don't think drowning would be a horrible way to die.  After about the first 2 minutes, your body would have so little oxygen that you would feel too dizzy to feel it that much.  Plus, there is one thing that all life requires-water.  Why not go out the way you were kept alive?  It would cancel out the feeling of needing something your entire life and not being self-sustained.  You are able to live to a certain extent without food but if you don't have anything to drink for just one week, you'll end up dead.  Why keep the feeling of being a dependent being?  Its just like being a parasite..

Pain receptors are burned out quite quickly, actually. You'd probably faint from the heat more than the pain, and the fear would probably be worse. Still a nasty, nasty way to go, though...
