* #1000: "Premature Endings". We see several idiots admitted to an emergency room who are about to die after various bizarre and stupid accidents. Then we see a woman who calmly and obliviously walks through the madness to see her ailing father who is in hospice care. The father then passes away peacefully from natural causes, after a long and rewarding life, with his daughter holding his hand. May be the one death that actually outranks Ichi-Boned as the most sympathetic death.
