    I've already tempted fate skydiving. Don't need the adrenaline these days, cherish life more than death.

    Skydiving is as safe as houses,dude. Not exactly taking crystal meth in the projects in Baltimore sort of stuff.

    I remember reading that the crazy one out of the Beach Boys wanted to be buried at sea but was refused because the body was too toxic. Probably an urban myth but if its not true, it should be :D

    You can obviously relate from experience, I'll acquiesce to the armchair general.

    Dennis Wilson, yeah, he drowned after a lengthy drinking “session” and diving for personal belongings he’d thrown away years before.

    They had to get permission from the President to have him “buried” at sea, regardless of his “toxicity”. Think only members of the navy were allowed go that way up to then.

    He did record a really nice album called ‘Pacific Ocean Blue’ that is well worth checking out.

    Don’t get me wrong, dude, it’s a great thing to do and all that. Well done. Skydiving is as safe as houses though. Hundreds of thousands of people do it every year. Sure my down syndrome nephew has done 8 or 9 of them at this stage for charity. Hiking or cricket probably have a higher fatality rate

    crystal meth is fine too, just got to make sure your diet is decent. plenty of milk, cheese, supplements, basically just keep eating and you will be fine

    I've always said I want a viking funeral. The lake beside us, wooden boat, bed of sticks bit of diesel maybe? Crack a match send me off and head to the pub. Of course the response is ''it couldn't be legal'' but who's is going to swim out put out the fire and drag me back to shore.

    There was a woman on the TV lately who buried her husband in the back garden. When asked was it legal she said "no, but who's going to come and dig him up!"

    All good so far like but, I made the mistake of asking my husband how he'd like to leave this world. His answer is being thrown out of a helicopter into the Atlantic Ocean over some part of the West of Ireland. Is this even feasible?


    Well someone thinks a lot of himself now doesn't he?

    Being fired off the coast from a giant catapult would be cooler than a helicopter.

    When I seen the thread title I thought it was how you want to die, my mistake. For me I would like to die peacefully in my sleep like my father, not screaming in terror like the passengers on his bus.

    Buried in a Catholic cemetery.

    Just a brief graveside ceremony conducted by a Catholic Priest would be my wish.


    I could do without the Mass but it probably won't be up to me anyway.


    I'm never going to discuss these kind of things with my family.

    Ah, the Osama bin Laden package! ;)

    A cousin of mine told me about a woman who had come to his area in the west of Ireland to scatter her sister's ashes into the sea, but got swept out to sea as she was doing it, and drowned.

    I'd like to be cremated but before that happens I'd love if my corpse starred in a remake of Weekend At Bernies.

    I'm in the process of registering with Trinity for my body to be used to teach medical students. Once the college is finished with it, they pay for the costs of either cremation or burial in Glasnevin Cemetery.

    That's only if my organs aren't donated though, obviously if they're donated, my body will be of no use for dissection.

    Not going to happen for many good reasons.

    If you want to give someone a real fright, attach a load of weather balloons to his coffin, fill them up with helium and stand back. Based on the prevailing wind, he'll land somewhere in the UK.

    May I ask why you'll never discuss these things with your family?

    Just make sure its a really windy day at that the winds are blowing the right way.

    Can see it now,

    Sir we have something unidentified coming in over the west coast on radar.

    What is it?

    No idea sir but it is coming in fast.

    Must be a new Russian weapon.

    Quick shot it down.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.
