"50 ways- YOU HEARD ME I AIN'T REPEATING MYSELF!"

The seventh episode of 50 Ways to Die in Minecraft. It was originally split into two different parts.

Watch the full version here.


Ready? Sego!

  • Bait-and-Switch: Multiple back-to-back in Death 11. Stu tells jayRiott he's going to shoot some things with his bow in a warehouse. Jay warns him that the warehouse is the TNT warehouse that keeps exploding, but Stu calms him by saying that there's no TNT in the warehouse... but there is a ton of Ender Crystals. However, when Stu shoots one, it doesn't cause a chain reaction, much to Jay's surprise. The two are then promptly blown up by Creepers.
  • Blinded by the Sun: A variation happens in Death 43, when a player turns the game's brightness to "The Lord's Almighty Desk Lamp".
    MY EYES!
  • Call-Back:
    • Deaths 19 and 20 are similar to Death 7 in the first episode, all involving a mob farm containment breach.
    • The final death, "Being Right", plays out nearly the same as Death 48 in Part 3, "Being Wrong", where the victim was killed for incorrectly pointing out the previous episode only had 49 deaths. Here, he is killed for the opposite reason.
      Norman298: "Hey there weren't fifty, there were only forty-nine!"
      SnakeTheJaik: "Hey, you're right! We need one more."
      Norman298: "Ahh!"
      (Snake kills him)
  • Do Not Go Gentle: When chased into a dead end in Death 30, the Gingerbread Man decides to take as many mobs as he can with him before he is killed.
  • Eskimos Aren't Real: The infamous Real World "Flat Earth movement" is parodied in Death 8. When Breakstick the Wizard hits a creeper with a Knockback 255 sword, the creeper lands right behind him and explodes. One of two on-lookers (Norman298) states that could only happen if the world is round. The other (Brandon) grumbles that he's had it with his "round-Earth" conspiracy theories.
  • Exact Words: In Death 16, Nickromancer asks Stu to watch for Ghasts while he is building a bridge across the Nether and to warn him if he sees any. He forgot to mention to watch out for Blazes as well.
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: In Death 46, Snake is in the process of building another TNT tripwire trap, until an Enderman teleports onto the wire, triggering the TNT and killing them both.
  • Running Gag:
    • Someone mining obsidian towers in The End is killed when the Ender Dragon is being resurrected.
  • Shout-Out:
  • Tele-Frag: In Death 28, Brandon mistypes the teleport command and ends up being split in half.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Stu, as per usual.
    • Death 18 has him teleport to ThatGuyWithTheElytra while he's gliding across the sky.
    • Death 31 implies he built a Beacon… using Sponges as the pyramid base. Naturally, the sponges drain his entire health bar in nanoseconds.
    • He puts on a lit Jack-O-Lantern in Death 32.
    • Death 47 has him put a frag grenade into a furnace.
  • Take That!: Death 24 is one to annoying people who put down others for not being able to best That One Boss on their first try. NonStJon makes the fatal mistake by bragging about this to Brandon, currently stuck on the Dragonslayer Armour, who proceeds to maul Jon with his controller.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: Death 26 involves Breadstick the wizard's enchantment actually working without backfiring for once.
  • Underestimating Badassery: In Death 36, Feed Me is faced with a Snow Golem trying to stop him from punching villagers. Feed Me mocks the poor thing, saying all he can do is pelt him with snowballs, and continues bullying the villagers. One can only imagine the shock that went through Feed Me's mind as the Snow Golem shoots him with a gun.
  • We Interrupt This Program: In Death 23, Jake Eyes objects to the title for saying that he would die of shock upon realizing that he only just now made a death that involves a player being killed by an Iron Golem for punching an Villager. A news report suddenly pops up on his computer with the announcement that having a dice for a head increases the risk of heart attacks resulting from mild surprises by 900%. Upon watching this, Jake concedes and dies.
