DMAX Version.
"WASTE DEAD", Way to Die #135, is the fifth death featured in "It's a Dead, Dead, Dead World", which aired on July 15, 2012.
Plot[]
Chris is a midget who is obsessed with the internet sensation known as planking (where a person lies face down in various places). Chris has his stripper girlfriend take photos of him planking in various places at a local playground. As well as a bench and annoy a homeless person sleeping (Only shown in the German version). His girlfriend is a camerawoman. Then, when a pissed off soccer mom/karen with a kid tries to take back the playground, he screams at her to go away, declaring it his playground. He comes across a seesaw and attempts to plank on it. Just at that moment, however, an airplane passed over them and drops a piece of "blue ice" (A solid mixture of sewage and disinfectant) which landed at just the right position to hit the other side of the seesaw, launching him high into the air onto the top of the swing set crossbar. Landing on the crossbar breaks his ribs and punctures his heart and lungs, causing him to die near-instantly from massive internal bleeding, sending him to hell.

Trivia[]
- If one were to look closely, the picture in the end was in motion, the same as Habeas Corpse, Anger Damagement, Cream-ated, Withdrawn, Samurai Death Squad, and Electro-cutie.
- Chris's death is similar to that of Shifty's death in Happy Tree Friends TV episode, "As You Wish", Evil Flippy's death in Happy Tree Friends web series episode, "By the Seat of Your Pants", and Giggles' death in Happy Tree Friends web series episode, "Breaking Wind".
- This and the deaths Fat Man In A Little Swing and Out to Launch are the only deaths to take place at a playground.
- Chris' Girlfriend's scream is also shown in JTM's A Sexy & Funky Death's cover art. Her scream is also briefly heard at the beginning of the deathcard.
- This is one of 3 deaths where a little guy is in a relationship with an average height woman, the others are Little Person, Big Death and The Chokes On You Ironically, Joseph S. Griffo (Chris) portrayed Nick from Little Person, Big Death.
- An Australian man died planking as well.
Goofs[]
- Continuity: When Chris gets launched toward the crossbar, there is a yellow flag at the end of it and is clearly flying through the middle crossbar. But when he lands, the flag is in the middle (where he also lands as mentioned earlier).
- Crew or Equipment Visible: As Chris flies, a cable can be seen coming out of his back, supporting him and allowing him to fly onto the swing set. It's more noticeable in the next shot when he lands.
