re: Most disturbing way someone you know died

Wow that's heavy duty.

Had a good friend die his Freshman year at Auburn.Riding around in a Volkswagon Thing,top down,dirt road,Girl driving,

It slid and flipped throwing everyone but him clear.Landed on his neck.

He went off to School and never made it back.
Sad.Was one of my hunting buddies.

The worst to watch was a guy that had drank himself to death.Straight vodka or vodka and gatoraide.

I've never seen someone suffer right there in front of me like that.



He moved in with a mutual friend.It was sort of a rehab for him.They were giving him 1 1/2 oz of Vodka every 4 hrs or so.

It flipped me out.I'd never seen anyone crawling out of their skin.I gave him a couple of xanax.A Doctor had just given him Klonopine.

Didnt know the person, but the only thing I can think of is my grandpas best friend when he was a kid. His friend got killed by a train, I think he was laying on the train tracks, looked up, and the train went headon into his head. I'm pretty sure he got decapitated.

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it a little more there was a kid back from my elementary school that was in Florida, and his brothers accidentally locked him out on a hotel balcony. Well, he tried getting down to the balcony under him and fell about 10 stories and died. This was about 15 years ago.

Best man in my wedding was playing golf with 3 of us, none of any good whatsoever, more of a drinking outing. He blew a chip shot, took his wedge & slammed it against the cart, the iron broke in half & one end penetrated his throat. When he pulled it out, in shock, he started bleeding & ended up dying 3 days later. Wife of 2 yrs was expecting their first child. My history professor at Nicholls & his wife & son were on vacation passing a lumber truck when one of the chains holding the logs on the truck snapped. The log fell on the wife & son, crushing them to death, missing him completely on the other side of the car.

Two stories:

Family going home from a wedding gets hit by a drunk driver. 7 year old in her bridesmaid wedding dress gets decapitated. When EMS gets to scene, mother is holding the childs head in her lap crying.

Guy gets 3rd degree burns from head to toe nearly 100% total body surface area. He comes into ER immediately. He can talk, walk, act completely normal. He has minimal pain. He is trying to joke with the medical staff but everybody knew he would likely be dead within a few hours.

Wood chipper. Use your imagination.

God bless all of you emergency responders. You all really are heros.
I mean it.

The guy who was hanging out of a truck window puking while his drunk friend swerved into a telephone pole guide wire decapitating him is at the top of my list.

Decapitated body was still in the truck in the driver's driveway while he was sleeping it off.

Cops had to literally go head hunting.

Some great stories. May have to try one out someday

I was friends with a kid whose father was stabbed to death. I knew him very well. He attended church with my parents and his wife and my mother were close friends. Anyway he ended up leaving his wife for his secretary and then he ended up being stabbed to death not long after. My parents thought the secretary's husband might have murdered him in a jealous rage. Anyway, I don't know if that case ever got solved.
