In a lot of these cases, you're not surprised the person died, you're surprised that they lived as long as they did.Īt the end of all first season episodes, for the last item, the show is completely inverted, and instead of showing someone dying, they show someone who miraculously survives an event which, under normal circumstances, they should not have lived through.
Many of the people die because of stupid mistakes, some die as a result of their own misconduct, and some 3rd party innocent victims die because someone else did something so stupid that the poor victim's death probably kept the other stupid person from killing themselves through pure incompetence in being alive. Names were changed to avoid lawsuits, but the stories are based on actual events - mostly.
A Thousand Ways to Die.'ġ000 Ways to Die is Spike's often hilarious 30-minute anthology of people dying in spectacular, gruesome and often stupid ways. There's a lot of ways to wind up dead the fact that we survive at all is a miracle. Every day we fight a new war against germs, toxins, injury, illness, catastrophe and calamity. Most of us try to avoid it others can't get out of its way.
