I can't be the only one here that's fascinated as fuck by this. Note that this doesn't include gore, as the poor fucks in gore have already died. This is about the act of dying itself, and the leadup. Bonus points for first person death videos/ability to see eyes fade during the act of death.

Let's begin with a senseless skydiver death:

This photo from September 11, 2013, shows an unidentified Nepali man only inches from the ground after jumping from the top of a three-story shophouse. Emergency services had tried to talk him out of jumping for hours, but were unsuccessful in their attempts.

It later emerged that he had recently lost his job, according to what he had told a Fire and Rescue Department officer. The man was killed almost instantly, only a split-second after this photo was taken.

Jane Wicker was one of the leading industry stars before her death in 2013. She and her pilot Charlie Schwenker were performing for thousands of people at the Vectren Dayton Air Show, before the biplane crashed in a fiery explosion, killing both wing walker and rider.

The manoeuvre leading to the crash involved the plane ascending into a loop, so that Wicker was sitting on the wing of the upside down plane. For unknown reasons, the wing upon which Wicker was sat banked sharply to the ground, and the plane hit the ground shortly after.

A group of four technicians were conducting routine maintenance on one of several wind turbines at Ooltgensplaat in the Netherlands. While in a gondola next to the turbine, a fire suddenly broke out, quickly making the only escape completely inaccessible.

Two of the technicians became stuck at the top of the turbine, which soon became totally engulfed in flames. One victim chose to jump down, and his body was found in an adjacent field shortly afterwards. The other was found inside the charred husk of the turbine by a fire-fighter team that went up the tube once the flames died down. The photo above shows the two technicians embracing, only moments before one of them jumped down.

it was a full eruption that killed hundreds, they likely had the insides of their lungs firebombed by thousands of degrees hot ash, and then were slowly subsumed into stone by lava rolling down the mountain.

I think that in that moment the guy knows he fucked the jump up, either that or straining all his muscles to perform this. I bet he has probably done this a couple of times already and now he know he is giong to mess up. Maybe the wind made him move a bit, or a glaring light or a car horn disbalanced him, and now he is dead.

Pretty cool.
