Stupid is as Stupid Dies[]

"Research shows... stupid people have more fun... but die sooner. Here's proof: This guy had a hardcore day and wound up stiff. This one bit off more than he could chew. These two kids locked tongues and lost their heads. There's the football fan who got the cold shoulder, the outdoorsman who got the hook, and the co-ed who learned you can't fool 'mudder' nature. They're young, numb, and full of dumb. It's the next episode of 1000 Ways to Die."

Jimmy Millican

On July 4, 2004, in Orangeville, MI. A once-promising chemist has now become a drug addict who spends his days making crystal meth in the garage of his house and chewing on a 6-day-old piece of gum that he regularly dips in citric acid to keep it moist and fresh. In the man's drug-addled rush, he accidentally dips the gum in red phosphorus instead. The force of his chewing causes it to explode, blowing off his jawbone and making his brain bleed out on the table.

Joan Meikin

On May 1, 1968, San Francisco, CA. A female nudist painter lapses into a coma and dies after months of digestive problems caused by her trichophagia. After eating her own hair, she vomits, and it exits her mouth and goes into the toilet. And after she continues eating her own hair, she dies from choking to death, intestinal rupturing, and internal bleeding. At the morgue, the coroners discover a trichobezoar in her intestines, which was clogged with enough hair and undigested food to cause intestinal rupturing and internal bleeding.

Harriet

On November 21, 2009, in Brentwood, CA. A strict, sadistic pledge master (and military brat) at a sorority bullies her pledges during frosh week. At the end of the week, the pledges are instructed to build a mud wrestling pit for a charity event, but as the pledge master continues to harass them, one of the pledges gets fed up and attacks her. The pledge master proves to be the superior fighter, with the other pledges having to drag their defeated friend out of the pit. But as the pledge master is celebrating her victory, she begins to fall into the sinkhole that was beneath the ring the pledges were building and is sucked into the ground, eventually dying of suffocation from the tons of dirt and mud pressing on her chest.
