According to the “Final Destination” series that began in 2000 by director James Wong, Death has a very well crafted, creative plan on killing people. Often, Death chooses to kill people with a set of bizarre events leading to what can only be described as freak accidents. To prove just how creative and bizarre Death’s plan is, let’s look back at some of its most creative plans that played out in the first three movies.

10. Subway train of death in the 2006 “Final Destination 3:” A rat chews through electrical wires in a subway causing the tracks to switch sending the train into a fiery explosion killing everyone on board. Not one of Death’s most creative masterpieces but still pretty intuitive to use a subway rat to cause the deaths of many.

9. House of death in “Final Destination:” One character in the first film met her demise by having her computer blow up in her face. She then falls backward knocking over a bunch of knives that impale and immobilize her. Her kitchen then catches fire, sealing her fate. That was good Death but you could have done better.

8. Shower curtain of death in “Final Destination:” After taking a shower, one of the doomed survivors slips on water grabbing the shower curtain. Too bad the shower curtain cord wraps around his neck strangling him. That was good Death but more or less was human error.

7. Cherry Picker of death in “Final Destination 3:” Just after claiming that Death couldn’t kill him, one of the doomed survivors in this film had a bunch of fireworks misfire right past him. He breathes a sigh of relief; too bad he doesn’t know the fireworks caused the cherry picker behind him to collapse right on top of him. This was very good Death, giving the character a sense of hope only to smash it down ... literally.

6. Spaghetti of death in the 2003 “Final Destination 2” from director David Ellis: A lotto winner comes back with an armful of new gifts for himself. One of his new gifts, a particularly diamond encrusted ring, falls into a drain. When he goes to get it, his hand gets stuck in the drain and death decides to do some cooking. The whole kitchen starts on fire and quickly spreads around the crummy apartment.

Just then, the lucky winner frees his hand and escapes out of the fire escape, only to reach solid ground, slip on spaghetti and get smashed by the falling escape.

5. Swinging pendulum billboard of death in “Final Destination:” After thinking that they have finally beaten death at its own game, the survivors of the first movie celebrate at a café underneath a new billboard. Too bad they didn’t know the billboard would break and begin swinging like a pendulum, destroying the next person on Death’s list. You have to hand it to Death: he’s got great aim with a billboard.

4. The fence of death “Final Destination 2:” After a car accident that didn’t kill anyone, the survivors stand around debating on their next move until a van parked next to a barbed wire fence blows up, sending a piece of the fence flying toward the next person, slicing him into three pieces. Again, a great sample of how accurate and planned out Death is.

3. Tanning beds of death in “Final Destination 3:” Props to Death for using an ironic bookshelf to lock two high school ditsy beauties in their tanning beds. Then, using the condensation of their drink to cause an electrical short that ends up frying the girls in their box of cancer. Everyone thinks tanning beds are safe but Death knows how to turn them into electrical nightmares that end up frying the occupants.

2. Hospital room of death in “Final Destination 2:” Death is really good at messing with electronics and the hospital room of death is a perfect example. Just as the survivors of the second movie think they have figured out Death’s plan and go to visit their fellow survivor in the hospital, the room was over-saturated with oxygen and an electrical short blows up the room right as they’re about to walk in. Good timing Death; way to think ahead.

1. Nail gun of death in “Final Destination 2:” This is Death’s crowning jewel. A set of events so bizarre, so impossible to recreate that the end of these events leads to a girl getting knocked back and hitting her head on a nail gun, giving her more piercings than she ever wanted. The events that took place for this to happen were so bizarre, so unforeseeable that Death must have been patting himself on the back after this took place.
