"Fur Burger", Way to Die #112, is the fifth and last death to be featured in "Hard Lives, Easy Deaths", which aired on May 21, 2008.

Plot[]

Back in the Second century, if you were to incur the wrath of your tribal leaders, then you would be executed. One method of execution is that the victim had to wear a fur coat, be tied around a tree and then get eaten alive by whatever comes his/her way (in this case a flock of vultures.)

Transcript[]

(Previous deaths are shown: Tumble Die, Semi-cide, Wet Dream (606), Ancient Tribe Dead (Reconstructed) is playing)

Narrator: We've watched stories of folks who died accidentally, tragically or just through plain stupidity.

(Camera moves like a snake)

Narrator: But when we take each other out, death becomes even more gruesome.

(The man is executed, tied in the tree)

Narrator: That brings us to our next story. Any married man out there knows what it's like to be pecked to death. Back in the 2nd century, it had a different meaning.

(Death number is shown, the tied man looks angry)

Narrator: Let's say you're the guy with the beard and the bad fur coat, and you had incurred the wrath of the tribal leaders. Here's what will happen: they would wrap you up in a freshly killed animal skin, and then, take you out in the forest and leave you tied to a tree. What happens next would depend on whatever carnivores were around.

(The vulture is shown)

Narrator: Most likely vultures will quickly pick up the scent,

(People left the man tied, the vulture will eat him)

Narrator: and descend upon you like a fat kid on a Happy Meal. Their razor sharp beaks would tear you apart, while you would helplessly watch yourself get eaten alive.

Man: (Screams)

Narrator: Those were the days.
