I'm dead-scared of the afterlife so I don't hope to die. But if I do, I want it to be peacefully and/or painlessly, or totally awesome. I don't wanna die some stupid death because a drunk driver hit me or I choked on a veggie (oh the irony).
I read that this veteran drag racer, John Shoemajer (no joke) made a pass down the dragstrip and somehow kept going, letting the dirt traps at the end of the track and the engine giving up to stop him, with the car still pointing straight. The dragster wasn't even all that damaged, but John died of a stroke or heart attack during the pass. To top it off, his wife noticed that his final pass was the best ever of his racing career! Now that was just amazing! This beats Dale Earnhardt's accident by a long shot! I wish I could die like that, without a huge fireball engulfing me and my car. Just passing away doing the thing I like most.
