Mine would probably be Rabies.
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?
Where we die is irrelevant - we all die alone. Upside down in a ravine... as long as it doesn't hurt. Death comes for all of us - I simply don't want it to hurt.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Any way whatsoever after my kids, including with the knowledge that they will expire shortly after me.
Fire.
Scaphism. Hand's down:
I don’t think it would work this way to be honest. You’d 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!

Watching your friends and family go through it before you do would be the worst.
