how i would like to die (given the choice)

1753: Professor Georg Wilhelm Richmann, of Saint Petersburg, Russia, became the first recorded person to be killed while performing electrical experiments when he was struck and killed by a globe of ball lightning.[36]

or

1967: Cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov became the first person to die during a space mission after the parachute of his capsule failed to deploy following re-entry. [83]

 

Weird. So the Vladimir guy just floated off into space or what?
How do we know he isn't still alive, just floating around space

I used to want to die by the ocean- then I realized (and don't know how I never considered it before) that I would be eaten by sea creatures.....like the shellfish I love to eat. Gross.
So now I am rethinking the ideal way to go...........sleeping sounds good.

 

i think our boy vlad died via incineration during atmospheric re-entry. seems like a good a way of any to go out, a bit dramatic but hey, it's my funeral. i'll do what i want
