Reason I ask, I've been having this recurring dream where I drown somewhere in the middle of the ocean. It's odd because at first I'm kicking and fighting it, but as I'm sinking suddenly a feeling of content washes over me. It's like I suddenly realise my time has come, and I can feel myself fading away as I'm sucked into the deep.

Although in reality it is apparently quite painful.

Those others just seem brutal ways to go... I've heard if you fall a long distance most people are likely to have a heart attack before they hit the ground and die of that, can anyone prove this?

Among the choices given, thermonuclear explosion. If your close enough, the X-rays will just explode all your cells in less that a microsecond. You won't even have time to realize you're dead.

I contemplated this a long time ago, I think the best way to die is just to fall astleep & never wake up. ITs not messy or painfull. Just sweet sweet slumber for ever & ever. Im not afraid to die or of pain (Ok, to an extent, dont hit me with a bottle just coz I said Im not afraid of pain)

but If I had a choice - Sleep.

Thermonuclear explosion but that's only assuming the gama ray vaporize me within micro seconds. If not.. i actually written a paper on gama ray's effect on human's body. Either: Destroy your intestinal (sp) lining and you will die of diaria or send a havoc of electron through your nerve system giving a coma which results in death within 5 hours. Or destroy your immune system whcih results in death within a month without treatment.... i prefer vaporization... that's just me. Some people may like massive diaria (?)

Believe it or not, I think I'm already dead.
I do.
For me that is the mystery of "life".
I've always had a close relationship with death and I think it's not at all what it's commonly thought to be. Neither is "life".
That being said, I welcome the character of the actual moment I am considered dead by other people - whatever form it takes.

Does "no preference" count as "other"?

Other than that drowning...I have heard from near death experiences that you just go numb and kinda get a high feeling...

Definently Thermonuclear Explosion. Of all the options, it would be the quickest and least painful. All the others have some degree of suffering before you die. I'd rather go out without pain, just my opinion.

yeah, drowning is about the most painful way to go. you choke and your lungs burn, and the feeling of suffocation ALONE suck major ass.

The thing about falling is kinda true. Some people will experience a heart attack as a result of the fear induced by the act of falling, especially if you know you're not going to survive it. I have also read about people choking on their own vomit and dying. They usually were falling facing down, and the freefall did not allow them to expel the vomit, the air pressure caused it to stay in and they choked on it. That would suck.

Drowning and starving to death (being left to die someplace with no water or anything) are my two biggest fears of dying.

I have a question about the dying in your sleep theory. So you die in your sleep say while you're dreaming right, So do you any of you guys think there would be a difference between the dreams and dying? Like, would you know? Or like it was said above would you have a nightmare before you die?

This thread creates more questions for me than answers...

I don't dream, and if I didn't i've never had one I remembered when I woke up. So any time of dreaming experiance wouldn't matter, I'd be dead soon anyway.


Also, some older people that I've actually seen pass seem to die in there sleep. Their heart skips a beat, they exhale and it just seems to be all over. No mess, no screaming in fear or pain, just nothing.

Interesting. If I were to die in a nuclear explosion, I wouldn't like to be in the very epicenter because, y'know, I'd never know what hit me. I honestly would rather be a mile or two away, and have a few seconds to see the blast before the shockwave shatters my bones and makes my veins burst.

War = bad, of course, but if there ever is a nuclear war I'd like to see it with my own eyes.
