I'm a little strange in this regard but I have thought about it at great length. There are two ways I want to die and 1 way I do NOT want to die:
1. I would like to be piloting one of the big commercial airplanes as it crashes due to a mechanical malfunction. I think there is nothing more heroic than knowing that you are doomed yet summon all of your flying knowledge and strength to move that thing away from a populated area or crash it in a way that would save as many lives on board as possible.
2. I would also like to die from cancer because I've been studying oncology for years and I'm fascinated with cell differentiation and how new treatments help slow (or cure) the disease. I would want to die as a guinea pig so to speak so doctors can learn more about fighting cancer.
I would never ever want to die by drowning. I almost drowned once when I was about 13 and it scared the sh!t out of me. Plus I was all alone and while I pulled myself together to get out of the situation, I've had nightmares on and off since. I wake up after a drowning nightmare and I realize that I had been holding my breath while asleep and dreaming.

Oh and if I had to die as a passenger in a plane crash I would want to be near a window seat for sure, so I could see it coming. You could mentally brace, you know? Imagine being on a B747, in that middle aisle and not being able to know when it will happen!

Ooh, you know what? I have considered it. It's like which came first, the drowning dream or undiagnosed sleep apnea? lol. I haven't had this checked out sooner because I only have these dreams once every few months.
My husband stops breathing in his sleep on a nightly basis and he is too much of a man to get a sleep study done, let alone go to the doc about it.

Wow, you were holding your breath while asleep and dreaming? Have you ever considered going to have a sleep study done? That might help you to not hold your breath like that. Now that's scary!!

I have muscular dystrophy, I've had 16 operations and lots of other problems. I live in pain. In fact, I haven't had a day without pain for the last 40 years. I'd like to die peacefully, in my sleep. I'd like to think I've earned it.

I want to die in my sleep just like my Grandpa did. He wasn't sick.. he just went to sleep and never woke up.
