"Golden Die-angle", Way to Die #507, is the first death to be featured in "Fatal Distractions", which aired on October 5, 2010.
Plot[]
Ting (Portrayed by Surawit Sae Kang) was hired by the Southeast Asian drug lords to protect their opium. Ting deals with trespassers by violently decapitating them without showing any remorse. He would display their severed heads on his posts as a warning for incoming potential poachers/trespassers. One day, Ting receives a word/call from unknown person that a couple more poachers/trespassers, who are being initiated, are out. Ting prepares his machete, hops on his ATV and chases the two wannabe drug smugglers. In the heat of the chase, the two wannabe drug smugglers hide and Ting turns his speeder around, but he forgets one important thing; the barbed-wire fence that he installed a few days earlier. As his speeder drives through the fence, the top wire of the fence ironically decapitates Ting, killing him instantly sending the remorseless bastard straight to hell.
