I haven’t uploaded in a while (sorry 💔) but I thought I’d make this post for anyone who actually gives a fuck:
Final Destination Deaths that will NOT EVER Happen To You
Because people either get paranoid watching the franchise (understandable) or are maybe just interested in reading about this??
Spoilers for movies 1, 2, 3, 5 and Bloodlines
1. Tod Wagner - Final Destination One
This is actually my favourite death in the first movie. It doesn’t need gore to be unsettling, and to me, is the perfect first death in the franchise. But it is also never ever going to happen to anyone ever 😭.
This death is very supernatural driven. Even if you did slip and get your neck tangled in a clothing wire, death was keeping that wire tight. In reality, death isn’t an overbearing sentient being. You would be able to quickly get out of that situation.
But what if it wasn’t getting looser? Well, it wouldn’t go tighter. If you slotted your fingers in between the wire and the front of your neck and pulled away, it would keep the pressure of the wire away from your airways.
Like I said, this is a very supernatural death and the chances of it happening are basically nonexistent.
2. Tim Carpenter - Final Destination Two
Let’s be so for real. Human bodies are not that weak. Glass is not strong enough to turn a human into tomato purée.
We have bones. 206 to be exact. Each of these bones are strong.
Glass is melted sand that is easily smashed.
Put these two together? Glass falls on your head and your skull causes it to smash. The worst you get is a lot of cuts. It is guaranteed and literally impossible for you to get turned into a strawberry slush puppie.
3. Ashley and Ashlyn - Final Destination Three
This is personally my favourite in the entire franchise. I get it’s basic as hell but it genuinely made me feel uneasy and is always a really tough watch.
Tanning beds are built safe. They usually have an opening you can open at any time and you’re only in there for as long as you set. And guys… don’t bring slushy drinks into a room with human air fryers 😭 it’s common sense I fear. There will always be a worker nearby too to not let any harm reach you.
The most harm you’ll ever get from a tanning bed is risks of skin cancer. But if you’re more concerned about turning into KFC, you’re safe.
4. Olivia Castle - Final Destination Five
Anything to do with medical procedures is a guaranteed inaccurate death. I love this franchise but they make things inaccurate on purpose to scare viewers.
Lasik eye surgery is just as safe as any other surgery. Your eye is numbed by anaesthetic. There is a surgeon at ALL TIMES. It’s too long to explain here but just know that this is the same as any other surgery - safe and literally done to help you.
5. Erik and Bobby Campbell - Final Destination Bloodlines
Going back to the medical related deaths. Ouch.
Piercings aren’t magnetic when they’re good quality. I mean, if you go to the darkest depths of temu to get your nipple piercings, sure, they could be somewhat magnetic. But piercings will never be magnetic enough to be forcefully ripped out by an MRI.
The wheelchair… yeah, no, I’ll admit, you are fucked. But they wouldn’t ever let a wheelchair in the room at the same time as a scan is happening.
Oh my god. This death is graphic and honestly gross as hell, but seriously? This is NOT happening 😭. Even if the spring was magnetic, why on earth would they let a vending machine in a room with an MRI??
MRIs will never go into research mode when there are people in the room that are not qualified to work with MRIs. Again, another sage medical procedure made unrealistic to shock audiences.
(Although I can’t be a hater because I really liked the MRI deaths…)
That is it for this. I know it’s not all of the deaths, but these are ones I’ve seen talked about a lot from people who feel that they could happen. Chances are SLIM. SLIMMMM.
