"Guitar Zeros", Way to Die #66, is the third death featured in the episode "Cure for the Common Death, Part 1", which aired on March 22, 2009.
Plot
Li and Feng were devoted fans of heavy metal music who weren't thinking very logically. The loud, hard, beats of heavy metal was their passion. By day they worked as factory workers making plastic toys to export to the West. And by night, they rocked out to heavy metal until dawn break, the loud music blasting from their tiny apartment. Their jamming included air-guitars, air-drums, moshing, headbanging, and screaming. One night, they jump on and off their beds right after destroying their air guitars, dangerously close to an open window. Li jumps on the bed near the window but he slips and falls right out the window 60-feet down to the pavement. Feng, who just witnessed his room mate's demise, can't bare to be without his lifelong friend, so he intentionally jumps off his bed right out the window after making one last scream and he too, dies instantly on the sidewalk. Li and Feng's corpses laying in a pool of their blood, only inches away from each other. In the end, China wouldn't do with Li and Feng anymore.
"Confucius once said that music produces pleasures human nature can't do without. Unfortunately, China would have to do without Li and Feng."
