Yeah that would do it. I once heard a story (don't know if true) that this guy playing rugby got his leg dislocated (bad enough) but when they popped it back in they got one of his testis caught in the socket! Apparently you could hear the screams for miles before he passed out. Any testi trauma is bad, be it Rhino hatch or whatever (not quite sure how you'd get them caught in a Rhino hatch though).

**DrownedRat117**

That Dark Eldar pain whip thing.

It tells your body to hurt as much as it phsyically can before dropping dead.

Or a Carnifex gobbing up molecular acid all over you.

**Bombastic**

Being eaten alive by tyranids. Being eaten alive by anything for that matter.

**English Assassin**

Being crushed by a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT wouldn't be fun either.

**Ascalam**

Snotling being test-pilot for a Shokk Attack Gun.

You are loaded into a big scary whirry thing, shot through the warp until you are insane with terror and then make a mach lots entry through some solid object.

And to add insult to injury, in one ancient battle report, materialize inside a terminator's helm and get your head bitten off and spat out as he goes his merry way..

, yeah that would be pretty bad, although it would be a close call between being killed by a Fire Warrior in CC, or by a grot at whatever.

Speaking of which... well, simply put, Termi with Twin Lightning claws gets owned... in CC... by a firewarrior.

Oh my god is that video serious, Ninja Tau

,what happened to WS 2

**Coolyo294**

That's one of the stupidest videos I've seen.

worst way to die? as a daemon prince of slaanesh's play thing

Actually I liked the animation, but the Tau killing terminator AND a sergeant in CC was just stupid, considering that he is not even a Shas'ui.

On the other hand, getting a now maniacal snotling teleported into your throat must be pretty much as brutal, don't you think?

**MrMerlin**

Either its being hit by monomolecular wire.

Or ist a headhot from an ork who's half a mile away. Its like being killed by a tau in cc

That's the first thing that came to mind.

Being exploded by a bolter round probably would suck too.

**marauder6272**

I'd have to go with being the target of the Shokk attack gun. An insane snotling materializing in your guts, and clawing it's way out would be pretty traumatizing...

**bib**

Heavy flamer would be fairly bad.

Yea Id agree with that one. Infact if I had to go against Nids ever, Id PREY that I was butchered by one of their close combat types, hormaguants or Genestealers...something like that. At least it would be a fast death, some diamond hard razor sharp claw just running me through in the vitals would be a fine way to go.

Being eaten alive by super beetles? No thanks. Being melted by some super slime? Uhmm.....Ill pass. Being picked up and snipped in 2 and be dead before I hit the ground? Yes...Ill take that one

**ajax22**

+1 on that quick and painless!

I fail to see how that would work - there's no way you could trap your testicle between your femur and your hip. I mean, the joint is inside your body, with an inch or so of muscle, skin and other tissue in the way.

**Ineed2bucks**

Being tortured by the inquisition for information after being decreed a heretic by someone high up, ugh they will stop at no lengths

**Andilus Greatsword**

First thing that came to mind - being sat on by a Gargantuan Squiggoth.

DE or tyranids... any means of death that either of these races comes up with is going to be particularly pleasant.

Your blood doesn't boil in space, and nor would you turn to jelly. Space is much, much colder than any planet, so you would freeze - eyes first most likely. The difference in pressure between your insides and out would mean you would simultaneously vomit, defecate, urinate and bleed from your nose (and other, delicate external organs). That said, unless you die of cold first - death by lack of oxygen isn't actually that painful. Your lungs would burn to begin with, but just before death your brain releases a massive surge of endorphins, so unless you froze to death you'd probably die giggling.

actually, you do boil away.

as pressure decreases, so too does the boiling point of any liquid. when pressure is reduced to zero, the liquid will instantly turn into a gas.

Look up the Bends, officially called Decompression Sickness, a condition divers can get.

it happens when, at high pressure, gases which at Sea Level are gasses become dissolved in your blood and internal organs. If a diver returns to the surface, and lower pressure, too quickly the gases can form bubbles in your blood stream. this is a potentially lethal problem.

Thats just, excuse the word, slowed.

The sword didn't even go in deep enough. a Terminators actual skull is much further back. the sword would simply have just broken some of the interior mechanisims.

and Tau are NOT ninjas dispite the obvious Japanese influence. they are I2 people, 2!!! a human moves faster then that.

**Mr Nobody**

Being the emperor, it's certainly the slowest death in 40k.
