11* ADayInTheLimelight: [=FeedMe=] is the most prominent of the recurring players in this video, and is responsible for a few of the deaths.
12* BaitAndSwitch: The mother of them all appears for Death 31. When Construction Guy is building a replica of a rocket ship, several things come that nearly destroy his scaffolding when he tries going down. Stu gathering dirt, who stops to chase a bunny, Ned's flying machine, which he turns around at the last second, and Farmer Brown cutting tall grass… who breaks down the tower because [[IrrationalHatred he hates scaffolding.]] While Construction Guy survives the fall, a Creeper threatens to blow him up… [[TakeThat only to roast the rocket he built]], incinerating Construction Guy.
13* CatapultToGlory: Death 43, "Attempting to Advance the Field of Public Transportation Beyond The Limits that God Intended".
14* ExactWords: Death 29: When Construction Guy implicitly threatens to break the scaffolding that's [=FeedMe=] is standing on (as revenge for when [=FeedMe=] did the same earlier), [=FeedMe=] warns him if he breaks a single scaffolding block, he'll fill his house with so much TNT, it will cause a server-wide sand storage. Construction Guy complies by not breaking a block… but instead adding to the scaffolding tower, causing [=FeedMe=] to be squished by his platform.
15* GoshDarnItToHeck: In Death 52, Lil' Timmy says "diaper biscuits" when on a Christian server. [[TakeThatAudience He is then buried by a load of comments requesting such a scene to be a death.]]
16* HomageShot: The opening can arguably be one to the popular IDoNotOwn disclaimer trend started by ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged''.[[note]][[WhatCouldHaveBeen In an early draft]], the homage would have been made more obvious with Stu humming the background music, but Jake scrapped it in fear of getting a copyright strike.[[/note]]
17* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: In Death 16, [=ThatGuyWithTheElytra=] sleds down a hill and right into a Mason's workshop and gets cut in half by a stonecutter's saw. The image of him getting sawed in half is shown as a log getting sawed in half by the Riverwood Saw Mill from ''VideoGame/{{Skyrim}}''.
18* OneHitPolykill: In Death 49, a pillager uses a Piercing 255 crossbow to kill ''eleven'' construction workers with one shot. [[TemptingFate When a cat teases the mob for missing it]], the pillager reloads and kills the feline.
19* RunningGag:
20** Someone dying via scaffolding.
21** Being shot by a crossbow, usually by a pillager.
22* SelfDeprecation: Death 20 is caused when Jake tries to make something other than a 50 Ways video, causing his view rate to instantly plummet and kill him via poverty.
23* TakeThat: Death 15 is one to the infamous incident where {{Creator/Activision}} fired 800 of their employees despite selling 8 million copies of VideoGame/CallOfDutyBlackOps4 before its release. Right before the CEO [[ItMakesSenseInContext spews pink slips at his employees,]] his face morphs into the head of UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump as a nod to his memetic "You're Fired!" line in Series/TheApprentice prior to becoming president.
24* TooDumbToLive: Stu, as usual. In Death 42, while on fire, he somehow thinks it's a good idea to cool off in a ''pool of lava''. Aptly, the death is called "Skipping Brain Day".
25* VisualPun: When [=ThatGuyWithTheElytra=] gets sawed in half, the inside of his head (or his brain) is portrayed by trimmed pictures of Brain from ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' and Brain from ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}''.
26** Breadstick (or Gandledorf as the death message calls him) in Death 51 gets banned from a Christian server for cursing. Not as in swearing, but as in applying Curse of Vanishing to a sword.
