A TV show for people that like to see people die in all different ways. Think "Faces of Death" for TV. Just not as graphic. It does get close at times though. The deaths are all supposed to be based on real deaths but the back stories are for the most part, invented. I believe they're in there third season. Unfortunately I think this is only available in the US and Canada on Spike TV. There are a bunch on youtube though. 
Some of my favorite's are...
Being electrocuted while having sex with a cow heart. Yes you read that right. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHjTrepT22E
Killed while trying to have sex with a raccoon. Yes, some of the deaths are hilarious.
A woman choking on a cucumber after stepping on a rake.
Trying to rob a gun store.
Snorting Fire Ants.
And so many more.
I'm not a huge fan of the show but I like it well enough.

I'll have to check this show out. I never heard of it but that';s not surprising as I'm pretty out of the know with television nowadays, as most of it sucks. Looks fun. Hmm. And I thought I was the only one to run electricity through a cow heart so I can have sex with it. Never been electrocuted either. Looks like I'm the cow heart sex champion! I am proud!
--------- "Trying to rob a gun store" That sounds like an excellent premise right there...

I watch the reruns from time to time when they're on. It's a pretty enjoyable show in my opinion. It's often ridiculous, but that's part of it's charm.

All the spike original programming is pretty suck. The only reason to watch that channel is ufc. I do remember a 1000 ways to die where a chick was getting accupuncture and rolled off the bed. It's all just too ridiculous for my tastes.

Yep, some of the stories are pretty ridiculous and at times a little unbelievable. And yeah most of Spikes shows are crap. But this is pretty good at times.
My new fav is, breast implanted boobs exploding on a plane. Lots of splatter here and it's pretty funny. Not believable, just funny.

This show cracks me up with some of the ways certain people have died. I know I probably shouldn't laugh at it, but seriously some of this stuff has got to be made up!

Go ahead and laugh. It's supposed to be funny. And yeah, some of them do seem made up. For the back stories where there is only one person is involved, they couldn't possibly know the back story, only how the person died. And some of the deaths are so spectacular, you would think we would have heard about them somewhere else. Oh well. It's still fun to watch some times.

I'm always down to watch it at 2 in the morning. I have no digital cable in my bedroom and I hate sitting in the living room alone at night. This means my television viewing is limited at best while I'm relaxing.
So freakin' depressing. ugh

Yeah, I have to admit, I've seen several episodes of this show. I feel a little bit guilty about that. I wouldn't want anyone deriving entertainment value from the death of one of my family members.
But having said that, this show can be pretty entertaining. It's almost like the Final Destination movies--you're wondering how this person is going to die. Sometimes it's obvious, other times, not so much.
And I think at least several of them are actually urban legends.

That's quite possibly. A couple of stories have sounded a little familiar. Particularly one about bungy jumping and a cord that was too long.
