Not really. I don't really believe in an afterlife, so as far as I'm concerned, we just go back to the way we were before we were born when we die; just nonexistant. Nothing. Not even blackness, because that would imply you're conscious enough to look at something.
Honestly, I'm not too worried. Maybe it's because I'm still relatively young, but my biggest fear is that I die not having fulfilled my dreams, whatever they may be. I'm still trying to sort that part of myself out...and I just made myself worried...
Not at all, if I die I'll be too dead to care so it doesn't matter.
To be honest I lack a sense of danger so it's not very strange that I don't care about getting hurt either, you can shoot a gun in front of me and I won't even flinch (I know that from experience), hell if I'm burning I care so little that I don't even react to it, I've been lucky that when I've accidentally set myself on fire there was someone else to shut off the fire otherwise well my face would probably look awful, though to be honest I'm pretty surprised that I'm not horribly scarred by fire considering that I've been on fire so many times that I can't even recall all the times it happened even though I know it was around 7 or 8 times.
It's something I try not to worry about honestly, you can't let yourself be scared of the unknown. Death is a mystery, but we can never escape it, it's going to happen, so I say live your life to the fullest until the day you do die. You can't live in fear of death, because you'll never get to enjoy living (and yes, I kind of took that from Luke in S2 of TWD).
The best way for me to die, a mosh pit at a Metallica concert, go out listening to the best music in the world.

I am tanatophobic, I am terrified of death and, even if it may sound silly, I constantly live in the hope that in like 20 years we'll find a way to avoid it, so I never think about how I'd like to die, I think about how to NOT die.
Isn't that the equivalent to be beaten to death by hands and feet? lol that sounds terrible. And people would be doing it in synchronism to the song that's playing.

There's only one thing guaranteed in life: death.
And considering that we only live once, live life to the fullest: don't waste it.
So… more, I am not afraid of death.
Best way to die, as Handsome Jack once famously said, "I dunno. Somewhere warm with a sexy chick nearby..."
No, I'm not really worried. I look at death as an unfortunate inevitability. I don't look forward to it, obviously. I don't believe in any kind of afterlife, too, so I reckon that after my death it will be just plain old nothingness and I wouldn't care, since I'm completely gone from existence.
And, no offense. But talking tough in the Internet acting like you aren't scared of death is just..
It's okay to admit fears, that probably the entire world is afraid of.

Honestly, to me, that is the scariest possibility of them all. In that case, you wouldn't remember anything about your life, the moments you went through, basically your existence, and it would be like everything you did didn't matter, because you and everyone else you would just forget it, and you would be stuck in that unconsciousness forever.

There's not much to be afraid of that way.
Nah, I'm just incredibly stupid and clumsy and have a bad habit of dropping candles and setting things on fire and I kinda accidentally leaned my head on candles multiple times which means my hair was set on fire.
Eh, doesn't matter. All it is dead, no matter who says what.
A better example would be a baby like AJ dying right after they were born. Sadly, even in first world nations that happens.
Let's just give a toast to living.
It wouldn't be unconsciousness it would be a lack of consciousness entirely. The things that you do don't matter, except to yourself and to the people that you leave behind. People as far back as Gilgamesh are remembered, and no one alive ever knew him. Western society is molded after various advancements from Rome, etc, and all of those things impact our daily lives to this day.

It wasn't at me, it was in front of me, and not necessarily everyone reacts differently to different situations, a complete non-reaction is actually not all that uncommon and I wouldn't classify it as being a tough, tough would be standing up to the guys with guns and trying to do something about it, not ignore them and carry on like nothing is going on, that being said it bears some mention that the environment you grow up in has influence in the way you act and I grew up on the not so good parts of México, so even when I was a child stuff like murders and shootouts were things I heard about often and also got to see the crime scenes often on my way to school, not to mention that many of the people I know are drug dealers and junkies so it's likely that I'm much more desensitized than an average person, so you know probably a combination of my personality and my life experiences.
Yeah, if anyone shot a gun at you in REALITY.
You would be pissing your pants right now.
And, no offense. But talking tough in the Int… moreernet acting like you aren't scared of death is just..
It's okay to admit fears, that probably the entire world is afraid of.
I find it a comforting thought, actually. You can be remembered by the people still living. You can't say nothing you did mattered if those things mattered to you and the people around you.
If you've lived a complete life by the time you die, nothingness really isn't intimidating anymore. It's not like you're suffering in it. You're not doing anything at all, in fact.
There's not much to be afraid that way.

The one single way that I don't want to die is in a plane crash. Incredibly unlikely to happen, I just really hate flying.
Dying in a car crash would suck as well... just because it shouldn't happen.

Tyrion pretty much sums it up:

What do you mean ? I think it is a alright question.
No, I'm not worried. I'd also prefer to die doing something that I genuinely enjoy.
You know, it used to not bother me, but since having kids i've found the concept much scarier.
No I would say I'm not considering i dream about it every night. How do I want to die? Whatever way fine.
Yes. I at least want to make a change in the world before my death.
Wouldn't it be better doing something you hate?
That way you be happier about dying and knowing you would never have to do that thing you hate again.

That's an interesting way to look at it.
Definitely , peacefully .
Thank you !
I'm more concerned about my loved ones dying, to be honest.
I want to fight to the death along side my Bros....I want my death to play a key part in destroying the Crowbars.... Or something like that....
Honestly, I'm not too worried. Maybe it's because I'm still relatively young, but my biggest fear is that I die not having fulfilled my dreams, whatever they may be. I'm still trying to sort that part of myself out...and I just made myself worried...
Good job, me.
Peacefully, in my sleep.
I would not like to die at all plz
I'm insanely scared about my death ;__;

You're either in the game, or you're out of it. On or off the bus if you prefer.
Are your veins filled with gasoline or are you just a firefighter?
Yeah, I am. But not in a sense that it scares me, it's just that I want to live.
I am tanatophobic, I am terrified of death and, even if it may sound silly, I constantly live in the hope that in like 20 years we'll find a way to avoid it, so I never think about how I'd like to die, I think about how to NOT die.
You have my comprehension.

And considering that we only live once, live life to the fullest: don't waste it.
So, I am not afraid of death.
Best way to die, as Handsome Jack once famously said, "I dunno. Somewhere warm with a sexy chick nearby..."
Along with eating, shitting, and taxes.
Well, since people can die as soon as they are conceived, not even those are guaranteed.
No, I'm not really worried. I look at death as an unfortunate inevitability. I don't look forward to it, obviously. I don't believe in any kind of afterlife, too, so I reckon that after my death it will be just plain old nothingness and I wouldn't care, since I'm completely gone from existence.
I ain't worried, because death is a part of life. It must happen and it will happen.
In my bed or doing something heroic (like saving/helping someone I love).
Yeah, if anyone shot a gun at you in REALITY.
You would be pissing your pants right now.
And, no offense. But talking tough in the Internet acting like you aren't scared of death is just..

An argument could be made that they never actually lived, in that case.

In that case, you wouldn't remember anything about your life, the moments you went through, basically your existence, and it would be like everything you did didn't matter, because you and everyone else you would just forget it, and you would be stuck in that unconsciousness forever.
You haven't lived till you completed a tax return.
Eh, doesn't matter. All it is dead, no matter who says what.

Nah, I'm just incredibly stupid and clumsy and have a bad habit of dropping candles and setting things on fire and I kinda accidentally leaned my head on candles multiple times which means my hair was set on fire.
Y'know, I always wondered what would happen to stillborn babies if there is an afterlife...a question wiser people than I have pondered, I reckon...

I glanced at this and thought it said, "dying in a car wash," I started to laugh but then I reread it.
