"Deaf Jammed", Way To Die #130, is the fourth death to be aired on "If You're Dead – Leave a Message and We'll Get Back to You" which aired on January 5, 2011.
Plot[]
Mickey was a carjacker, who only targeted women and he didn't care if they were pregnant or disabled. One day he was stalking an unnamed woman walking to her car alone. She got in her car and was about to shut the back window. Mickey saw a chance to make his move. He poked his head and left arm through the window, but before he could pull the car door lock, the automatic glass window closed on his neck, crushing his windpipe and stopping his ability to breathe. The unnamed woman drove off with Mickey hitching a ride. His painful gasps for help were heard by no one because the driver was a deaf woman. A mile later and a couple of minutes without air left Mickey unconscious. The driver, oblivious to his presence, finally looked in the mirror and saw Mickey's head sticking out the window. She rolled down the window and Mickey dropped dead on the road.

Trivia[]
- This death shares its Spike TV nickname with Sky Scraped.
- This death takes place in 2003 in the English edition, but it takes place in 2008 in the German edition (this is likely to correct the goof of a 2008 Mercedes-Benz).
- Chris MacLaughin, who played as Mickey in this death, previously portrayed Ron in Bitch Zapped and Mikey in A Turn For The Purse.
- Curiously, this death takes place ten days after A Turn For The Purse.
- On September 8, 2019, a Belarusian woman named Yulia Sharko died in a similar way. She was celebrating her birthday with friends when she tried to pull her two-year-old daughter out through the window of her car. Her daughter activated the window control button, closing the window and strangling Sharko to death.
- Last death interviewed by Jason Romero.
