Jake N' Baked, Way to Die #518, is the third death to be featured in "Death Be Not Stupid", which aired on March 15, 2009.
Plot[]
Jake Basso was the ideal metal worker, punctual, friendly and thorough, the only problem with Jake was his narcolepsy, which made him fall asleep anywhere: the bathroom, his home couch, even at his work place. One day, Jake falls asleep in a curing oven. Not knowing that Jake is in the oven, Manny, a friend and co-worker, turns on the oven at 600 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 hours, accidentally baking Jake alive in the process. After 12 hours have passed, the co-worker opens the oven and is horrified to see Jake burnt to a crisp.

Narrator: The only problem with Jake was his Narcolepsy, a paralyzing sleep disorder that made Jake fall asleep in the strangest places.
Narrator: One day, Jake just picked the wrong place to have an attack of narcolepsy. The big curing oven is used to slowly bake powder-coated furniture, but for Jake it was a warm and comfy cave to grab forty winks.
(Jake goes to sleep in the chair as Manny whistles and begins to close the doors to the oven)
Narrator: His friend Manny swung the big door shut, having no clue that Jake was inside. He set the oven at 600 degrees for 12 hours.
(CGI recreation of the brain slowly burning to a crisp before the rest of the body follows suit)

Trivia[]
