30 Deaths That Couldn’t Have Been More Ironic

Even the dearly departed probably couldn’t help but laugh
30 Deaths That Couldn’t Have Been More Ironic

Meeting your maker because you weren’t wearing a seat belt and you went clear through the windshield after a car crash is an absolutely brutal way to go. But the added layer of dying like that after you refused to ever put on a seat belt because it would ruin your fit? Now that’s a little ironic, don’t you think? 

These Redditors have lost friends, loved ones and people they absolutely detested in ways fitting for Alanis Morissette’s 1996 hit — from lifeguards drowning, to patients choking to death in the hospital waiting room, to a moose hunter crushed by his own prized game. 

It’s usually not respectful to laugh at the deceased, but based on how these folks went out, it’s safe to say even they would laugh at their own ironic deaths.

SignificanceNo7878 2mo ago a few weeks ago at my nearby amusement park a man dropped his keys on a roller coaster. The workers said they could find them for him when the park closed. That wasn't good enough for him I guess so then he proceeded to climb over several fences with tons of signs saying danger and do not enter to try to get his keys and was immediately hit by the coaster... + 5K Reply ...

 7y ago So I attended this house in response to a report of a deceased male in the bedroom. Turns out he was the ex boyfriend of this woman. After a thorough investigation it was concluded that he had planned to break in, get really drunk and overdose on pills so the woman would find him dead in her bedroom. Well he unlucky thing for him was he got so drunk he passed out on a chair with his head tilted down, blocking his airway before he swallowed any pills. The guy literally died by accident before he could

MadPoetModGod 10y ago Edited 10y ago A friend of mine died while in a grave. No one else seemed to think it was funny so I kept it to myself. Edit: goddamnit. I wasn't too keen on telling this story but it's my fault for bringing it up and doubly so for not using a throwaway. Just do me a favor; if you're some kind of Google wizard and you think you've got the story don't post it. It would be disrespectful to the family I think. Honestly he was probably my most likely friend to be on reddit so

Admirable_Cycle2 1y ago 9 Edited 1y ago I work at a ski resort. People think that we are so strict about ducking ropes because we are greedy or don't want people to have fun. The reality is that once you cross that rope if you aren't reported missing we can't save you, the snow isn't groomed and you can fall right through it or even get pulled into a tree well. We will retrieve you in spring when the ice has thawed during Body Week. + 2.7K ...
