1,000 Ways to Die


Recommended Posts

So I spent an embarassing length of time watching this as I graded papers last night. The basic premise is they re-enact actual deaths by bizarre misadventure... then have medical & other experts explain the actual physiological mechanism that caused the death. With added comments about how long it took and whether the victim felt what was happening.

My favorites from last night: extreme dumbass tries to push jammed branches into a woodchipper with both feet (with predictable results); extreme dumbass couple decide to fool around inside a giant helium-filled basketball, are too giddy to find the zipper to get out, and asphyxiate; horny sub dumbass is zipped into latex suit, has allergic reaction, and succumbs to anaphylactic shock as oblivious domme abuses him.

The re-enactments are delightfully over-the-top... they really play up the extreme dumbassedness of most of the victims. Then they end each episode with a "they walked away" type survival story, I guess so no one can accuse them of being unrelievedly morbid. The vignettes have wicked funny titles i.e. "Kill-do" (nympho masturbates with carrot and suffers air embolism) and "Chippin' Dale" (woodchipper dumbass's name was Dale). This one's a definite must-see if you like this sort of thing... hey, there's even one with furries!

My favorite amusing death was a couple was on safari in Africa. The husband took a lot of photographs. At one point he came to a family of lions and started taking pictures. That didn't bother them. HOWEVER, one cub was a little bit hidden by another one so the husband asked his wife to re-arrange them. The mother being nearby, you can guess the end of this story.

Wonder if hubby had just taken out a major life insurance policy on wifey?

That reminds me of a vid I saw years ago... shot at Yellowstone or somewhere like that... doofus tourist is feeding Doritos or something to a bear while wifey tapes and repeatedly squawks "Be careful, honey!"... doofus tourist runs out of Doritos and starts to walk away... bear expresses its displeasure by knocking DT silly and proceeding to eat parts of him. All captured in glorious '70s vintage Super-8 by a fellow tourist. The moral: if you absolutely MUST ignore all the posted warnings in your local national park and leave your vehicle to feed bears- buy a really BIG bag of Doritos.

Oh gawd... we had first aid training after work yesterday, and every single thing the instructor showed or talked about reminded me of something on the show. I couldn't stop snickering... I'm sure my colleagues all thought I'd finally lost it.

And thats a bad thing?

It happened again today... we had the second half of first aid training, and the instructor starts talking about latex allergies. Of course all I could think about was the latex allergy gimp episode and I just cracked up laughing. I got some weird looks... especially from the guy next to me when I tried to explain what was so funny.

i love this show!

My favorite was when the farmers daughter was sneaking around with one of the helpers.

The farmer was chasing this guy around, and the master mind decided to hide in a back of a truck bed.

Not too soon after the "hiding" maneuver .. manure was being transferred into the truck bed and on top of the man in hiding suffocating him to death lol.
