* LogicBomb: The Magic Mirror goes through one in Fairy Tale edition, as a result of the vain queen asking it who is the MOST BEAUTIFUL of them all.

trying to reword her question to make sense.enter a house uninvited, crossing a bridge, walking past a church, and admiring a silver goblet. Death 20 then features the laughing man suffering this after the vampire requests life insurance from him.



* NobodysThatDumb: Death 50 in Part 9. Even Stu isn't dumb enough to try eating TNT. A magma block, on the other hand...



* NotInFrontOfTheParrot: Two deaths in part 4 are caused this way; the first affecting an unfortunate pirate who happened to be complaining about the captain in front of his PirateParrot, and the second is affecting the parrot itself (which just flies away, so it doesn't actually count as a death).

* ObligatoryJoke: Played with. Death number 52 in Episode 11 features a player [[Memes/{{Minecraft}} saying a cuss on a Christian server...]] only for the actual death to be "Satisfying the requests of 7.21 trillion viewers at the same time."

Added example(s), moved "Genie" entry to a trope that actually exists.


* LiteralGenie: Deaths 12 and 20 in the Fairy Tale episode come courtesy of one. In the first, a guy wishes for immortality. The genie grants the wish... to a nearby rabbit, preventing it from burning to death in lava, while the guy proceeds to jump off a cliff and die. Redstone Ned then asks the genie to make HIM immortal, which the genie reluctantly agrees to. Redstone Ned jumps into the same lava pool to test his new immortality, only to suddenly realize he's setting himself up for a FateWorseThanDeath. He then demands the genie to make him mortal again... while still standing in the lava pool. The genie tries to talk him out of it, but eventually acquiesces to his request. Subverted with the genie's third appearance, as Stu is too dumb to ask for anything other than sandwiches.



* TooDumbToFool: When Stu isn't being just plain dumb or very lucky, he can fall into this trope instead. For instance, when Ned attempts to trick him into saying "There are no trucks in ''Minecraft''", Stu first goes through a quick WhosOnFirst routine, then doesn't realise that Ned wants him to read the provided sign out loud, and then pronounces "''Minecraft''" as "Mini-craft", because, to quote him directly, "'E's make a [''sic''] "eee" sound". It ends up being Ned who falls victim to the expected suddenly-manifesting truck.



* TricksterGenie: Deaths 12 and 20 in the Fairy Tale episode come courtesy of one. In the first, a guy wishes for immortality. The genie grants the wish... to a nearby rabbit, preventing it from burning to death in lava, while the guy proceeds to jump off a cliff and die.
