This reminds me of an article I read the other day in the NYTimes!
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/25/nyregion/25chimp.htmlEverybody here knew Travis the Chimp, whose owners drove him around in a tow truck, and Police Officer Frank Chiafari, on the job for 25 years, remembered playing with him when their paths would cross.
...
Officer Chiafari and paramedics, who had been waiting in their vehicles for the chimp to leave, rushed to the body on the ground. “She had no face,” he said. “Her hands are off. There are thumbs and fingers all over the place.” He called out to her. “I feel bad, but I was hoping she wasn’t conscious.”
But Ms. Nash reached out with the stumps of her arms and tried to grab the officer’s leg, a memory that was perhaps the worst for him from that day.
***This is when she revealed her face for the first time after the attack on Oprah. It was linked in the NYTimes article. It may disturb you.***
http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/Chimp-Attack-Victim-Charla-Nash-Shows-Her-Face/3Against all odds, Charla survived the brutal attack though the chimp broke most of the bones in her face and ripped off her nose, lips, eyes and hands. A large portion of her scalp is missing, she only has one thumb, and doctors have created a hole in her face for her to get fluids through a straw.
That's not the same story I was referring to since I figured most knew about it already.
It's interesting that chimps are such formidable and vicious creatures but, from what I understand, are quite easily dispatched by jungle predators like the leopard. Am I mistaken? Anyone know of any good stats on leopards preying on chimps? Ever heard of a badass chimp that would scare off the leopards?
If you get eaten alive by a snake like an anaconda, isn't there a huge bump in the snake's body? So are you dead, but the snake just sits there for a while as you digest?
Candiru fish, I'd say. Lengthy and painful.
hippo. they kill more people in africa than all other african animals combined. I'm not sure how they kill people but it cant be pretty.
A Gila monster. Most of the schmucks here wouldn't be able to outrun one resulting in their certain demise.
Hippos are pretty scary.
I remember a show a few years back on the battles between big cats and apes. From what I recall leopards can kill them, especially the young, but it isn't easy pickings for them. I remember a group of apes scaring them off too.
I can't believe this has not yet been mentioned although I may have missed it...
Sarlacc
From Wookieepedia
Only the sarlacc's gaping maw could be seen from the surface, with the vast majority of its huge body lying beneath the ground. It lay in wait for any living creature to stumble into its maw, and additionally, it pulled nearby victims in with one of its many tentacles. A sarlacc's mouth was surrounded by rows of retractable razor-sharp teeth, used to chew victims during adolescence, before the digestive system was fully formed. Adult sarlaccs developed a beaked, snake-like tongue at the center of the fearsome pit, which doubled as a mouth.
After being swallowed by the tongue, the victim made its way into the sarlacc's stomach to be digested, purportedly being kept alive and slowly digested for a millennium. A strong network of vessels inside the stomach punctured the victim's skin and muscles and then embedded itself into victims before injecting neurotoxins into them, preventing the victims from escaping and ensuring that they remained immersed in the acidic fluids in the stomach, and attached to the walls of the stomach.
The vessels also provided victims with nutrients to keep them alive while they were digested in agony; sometimes when a victim was in the stomach for a long time period, the sarlacc actually embedded them in the lining of the stomach to make room for other victims it swallowed and to make the stomach stronger so that other victims could not escape.
Don't forget the rancor, from the same movie.
My personal favorite would be the North American buttmonkey.
A sly, very ugly creature named "Obamagator." He sucks you in with a cheezy smile and arrogant pompous attitude...then completely emptys your wallet/life savings to distribute to those you dont work....leaving you broke and cold, dying a slow death.
Oh yeah, Obama sucks arse.
If you get killed....and you get killed by a tiger.....and you get killed by a tiger in a zoo.....and you get killed by a tiger in a zoo in san francisco....then I think god's will is done.
I think he wanted you to die... and I think he wanted me to laugh about it a whole lot.
A horse?

During a July 2005 sex act, videotaped by a friend, he suffered a perforated colon and later died of his injuries. The story was reported in the The Seattle Times and was one of that paper's most read stories of 2005. It was informally referred to as the "Enumclaw horse sex case".
Reaction video with link to supposed real video:
Koala Bear. Imagine how much of a pussy you would sound like.
A skunk has to be near the top.
If somehow a horde of bullet ants attacked (unlikely, but humor me), that would be the worst. Each bite feels like a gunshot wound.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned hyenas. Being torn apart by their strong jaws and hearing their wild laughter would just be the worst death.
