My Obituary

I need to write a personal obituary for my business class, and I think I'm going to make it funny and upbeat. So I need some ideas on how I should die.

Any good ones?

Should I be a Darwin Award winner, a hero, or should I get a tragic case of hemmorhoids?

Gimme ideas, people.

ie "briefly the 28th most westerly man in finland"

You are mauled by a pterydactyl while skiing down mount everest for your seventh time.

easy - you died a tragic death, probably of exposure, because no one on NS would tell you how to get to Chad's from the bottom of Alta.

Say that you did chad's gap and not only broke your ankles but also your neck (which led to your demise).  Your last words were, "MY ANKLES ARE BROKE!"

Saying it in a whispering, trembling tone, while grabbing your friend's collar, looking up at him with a tear in your eye, while he is yelling at you "don't you die on me!"

this is the best idea.

these are the most fun to come up with too, because they can be very mundane ( third largest consumer of sweet corn in his neighborhood) or outlandish (generally regarded as the fourteenth greatest belly button lint collector in all of the western world.)

I like this idea.

It's for the class Overview & Occupations of Careers, basically a class for those that don't know what they want to do in the business world. I don't know why he's making us do an obituary, but he's a smart man so he must have some reason.

Thank for all the answers
