"Pained Gun", Way to Die #499, is the fifth death featured in "Death Be Not Stupid", which aired on March 15, 2009.
Plot[]
Luke and Mickey, a pair of high-school rejected boys, film themselves in a YouTube series (called Suburban Slaughter), which consists of them doing various shootings on people (including a drive-by on an old lady with a purse) with a paintball gun as part of a hare-brained plot to become viral video stars on YouTube, not realizing it's just as illegal to shoot with a paintball gun as it is with an actual firearm. When the gun malfunctions, it shoots the canister of CO2 at 200 mph into Mickey's larynx, which breaks his neck and kills him. Horrified, Luke tries to get help... only for the previous victim to catch up with him and start hitting him with her purse.

(Market Crash is playing, 2 idiots drive-by with paintball gun to the pedestrian)
Narrator: By hit the street, the search of internet gold.
(Mickey gets out of the car and continuously shoot the pedestrian, they proceed the vandalism)
Narrator: The boys didn't consider that shooting people with a paintball gun, is just as illegal as shooting them with a real gun.
(A granny checks her own dumpster, [] is playing)
Narrator: And they capture, at anything that moved.
(Suddenly, Mickey shoots the old woman's purse, Market Crash is resuming)
Mickey: Yeeaaah!
Old woman: Ah!
Mickey: Wooooo! Yeaaah! WOOOOOOOOOOO!! Woah, hold on, man. Hold on, you see that? Stop, stop, stop.
(Dead end fence is shown, they have to turn around)
Narrator: But even the most basic weapons of war require a bit of mechanical know-how.
-Luke: We gonna see a tutus, look right? This look like it's on their properly.
-Mickey: What?
-Mickey: Easing at it.
-Luke: It's problem, man.
Mickey: No, dude, those things are like idiotproof.
Narrator: The guns may be idiotproof.
Mickey: You get that? Hm-hmm?
Luke: Oh my goodness.
Narrator: But these 2 idiots, weren't.
Mickey: Here.
Luke: Someone had in stuff in this.

( is playing, Luke is about to shoot the spray can)
Narrator: Locked and loaded, the boys were ready for the next scene of Suburban Slaughter: The art of the drive-by.
-Luke: Eeeeeaaasy target, right? Here we go.
-Mickey: Yeah, come on!
Narrator: Luke lined up the shot. Unaware that Mickey was lined up right behind his gun.
(Luke shoot the spray but the gun malfunctions, it shoots the canister of CO2 at 200 mph (or 320 km/h) into Mickey's larynx, which breaks his neck and kills him)
Junior Sutitanom: There's about 1200 to 1500 PSI inside of tank. Each tank has a thread right on top that actually screws into the gun. A lot of people don't really check their threads on the tanks, and it gets all around it...
(Replay of malfunctioned canister flies to Mickey's larynx)
Narrator: The thread snapped, turning the tank into a self-prepared missile. It crushed into Mickey's larynx at 200 mph. Breaking his scrawny neck.

(Unlucky for unaware Luke, Mickey is dead)
Narrator: Maybe, it was a mechanical failure.
Luke: Oh my god...!!!
(Replay of thread crushes Mickey's neck)
