Dumb Ways To Die- the blog!

Are we all doomed?

The simple answer is yes. But there are several ways you could die at this moment or in the next. However there are a few ways you could die which are stupid. The game "Dumb Ways To Die" gives you many such ways but in this blog, lets discuss a few weirder ways to die.

1) Cow farts-

Yes! Cow farts can kill you. As surprising as it sounds, Farting Bos taurus ARE LETHAL. But this is in the long run and over a million or billion farts. Global warming is a problem or an "Expensive hoax". Cows and other farmland animals contribute a lot to global warming. Yes, this survey spilled the cereal out of several environmentalists' mouth while reading the morning paper.

In 2006, the United Nations' FAO claimed that the agricultural sector which comprises of some 1.2-1.5 billionaire cows "Generates more greenhouse gas emissions as measured in carbon dioxide equivalent- 18% -than transport."

According to a Danish study, cow farts do the same greenhouse gas damage as four tonnes of carbon dioxide. You'd wonder if banning beef in India was a a measure to protect Hindu feelings or to add on to global warming. 

2) Drinking water-

How can you die with what your body consists of 75%? you can!

A 28-year-old California woman died after competing in a radio station's on-air water-drinking contest. After downing some six liters of water in three hours in the "Hold Your Wee for a Wii" (Nintendo game console) contest, Jennifer Strange vomited, went home with a splitting headache, and died from so-called water intoxication. Strange indeed.

They say drink eight glasses of water, but there is no scientific proof behind it. Essentially, you should drink as much water as to suffice your thirst. We feel thirsty when the essential amount of water in our body is depleted. So, the replenish the body water, we drink water. there is no need to go to sleep worried that today you had only seven glasses of water. You could have drank only four if necessary.

3) Holding back the second call of nature-

We all have had those moments during a test or interview where we have needed to poop. But we always thought that once over with the task, we could easily poop. Till then we can hold it. This ended tragically for Emily Titterington, a 16-year-old from Cornwall, England, who died on February 8, 2013, from not pooping for eight weeks. as sad as it is, its very strange. As the show "The Simpsons" explains in an episode, eating laxatives can't always be bad. Especially when you put them in a rivals's chocolate supply in a chocolate selling competition.

4) Laughing a lot, like a lot, like "Behzinga" lot-

We all know the famous youtuber Ethan Payne better known as "Behzinga". We all know that he laughs a lot and half of his videos you just want to put on mute because its him laughing. But yes, laughing can kill you but it requires to be longer, louder and more laughter than Ethan.

On march 24, 1975, Alex mitchell, died due to laughing for twenty five minutes continuously after watching an episode 0f "The Goodies". He fell dead with a heart failure. Laughing excessively can lead to many problems like ruptured brain aneurysm, cardiac arrest, collapsed lung, strangulated hernia, elastic seizures, stroke, or asphyxiation. So to think of it, if you died of laughter, would the person who made the joke become a murderer?

5) hamster bite-

Imagine this- A cute critter of a hamster is walking around int its pen. You are rubbing its back. All of a sudden it turns and bites you. You laugh as it is like the prick of a toothpick but a few hours later you're dead. An autopsy conducted on the body of an 11-year-old girl who died yesterday after being bitten by a hamster at home in Ma On Shan. The asthmatic girl was bitten on the little finger of her right hand while playing with her pet in her flat at Marbella Tower in On Chun Street shortly before 12.45am. She was rushed unconscious to Prince of Wales Hospital in Sha Tin. Doctors declared her dead shortly after 2am. Hamster bites can inflict small punctures in your body and set off specific allergies. Due to this your body could contract a fatal disease. Many people have died by a hamster bite and once someone filed a suit against a hamster adoption home when the rodent killed three people with bites. Think about how Alan Shore would feel when he opens his portfolio to find a suit like this.

Nothing in the world is safe. Not even air. Be careful with your surroundings all times. It may seem funny to people how some die but it isn't in reality. It is a sad tragedy for which  the above mentioned died. Whatever you do, think before doing it because there are a million sites which post funny incidents of death. You certainly would not want to be on any of them.
