"French Fried", Way to Die #105, the fifth death to be featured in "Death Bites!", which has been aired on December 9, 2009.
Plot[]
Claude, a dying elderly man, was almost climaxing but the only thing keeping him alive was a respirator and his French Maid, Fifi. Then she performs a striptease to get him off as an early Christmas gift.. She then wrapped Christmas lights 'round herself (which resembled a Xmas elf). Claude's respirator warned him about cardiac overload. Then she climbed right on him. Claude was getting nervous as his heart was beating. Then as Claude went lights out, the lights went out as well. When the "maid" plugged in the lights, Claude's house couldn't take that much electricity, causing a blackout, shutting off his respirator, and he suffocates to death within a minute, sending the deceased elderly man to heaven.
Trivia[]
- In 1998, Charles Felder, 71, died after his cleaner, 47-year-old Pauline Jassey, unplugged his life support machine to use the vacuum cleaner in his bedroom in Dallas, Texas.
- When the light goes out you can see a small fire start.
- This death shares its number with Backseat Die-er.
- Interestingly, the victims of both deaths are related by electricity.
- This is the first death to be interviewed by Pavel Bindra.
- The French maid's name, Fifi, is probably based on Fifi La Fume, a character from Tiny Toons. This is because both of them are French.
