Mine would probably be Rabies.
There are probably worse ways but the Brazen Bull is the scariest for me. You're throwin in a bronze bull and slow-cooked to death while being cramped and not able to see anything. Just terrible.
Rated from most painless to most painful - most painful comes in dead last, so to speak.
Well that's one thing that's becoming clear. It depends on what you fear, not what is objectively "worst".
Is pain worse than the isolation and hopelessness of dying unreachable, upside-down and alone in Nutty Putty cave? Or is pain worse than dying with no emotions but fear and horror, like with rabies? Or is pain worse than the slow, inevitable fading of the self that comes with Alzheimer's, dementia, or prion disease? Or how about being in the hands of hostile enemies whose joy is to give you a slow, gruesome death?
Being slowly crushed from the feet up by a machine that no one has the ability to stop, while everyone looks on in horror.
Or, more realistically, anything that involves mental deterioration.
Alzheimer's, Dementia, anything neurological I think.
There is a certain cruel and unusual method of execution that I have some knowledge of. I remember it involving being force-fed honey and cream and then being left to rot in your own excrement.
Scaphism. Hand's down:
I donβt think it would work this way to be honest. Youβd probably die from a heat stroke or something like that long before any animal will do you much harm.
Oh. Then I guess scaphism is fine!
Hopefully not asphyxiation.

I've seen enough people die of diseases to know that I don't want that. I'd rather be crushed to death or hit by a car or break my neck falling then having to suffer for months or years and know that death is coming.
Any way whatsoever after my kids, including with the knowledge that they will expire shortly after me.
Fire.
Killed by family
Yeah no
Raped, beaten, stabbed and choked to death. Since femicide is on the rise worldwide...
