if it’ll take a day to get that video posted above out of your head then nutty putty would haunt your dreams every day for the rest of your life. 
Saw a YouTube video on the dude who got trapped in nutty putty. That has got to be about the worst way to go. I put it up there with the people who get crushed between train cars but remain alive until the cars are pulled apart.

I’d take the train cars 100 times out of 100.

Just did some research. Awful tragedy there. But as difficult as it is to imagine the guy's death in Nutty Putty, this particular description is worth a glance given the bizarre translations into English. Here's an example (despite the title of the page, there are no photos thank God): 

At 26, John was within the prime of his life. He is married to a one-year-old daughter and is attending medical faculty in Virginia. He’s again dwelling in Utah for some stress-free holidays together with his household.

Things didn’t go in line with plan.

John hadn’t been in any caves for years. At 6 toes tall and 200 kilos, he’s not the child he was.

I saw that in person on a 1993 Tiger Cruise on the USS Kitty Hawk. 

10 days cruise from Pearl Harbor to The Whale's Vagina.  Air shows, gun shows, submarine shows, conventional refuling by a tanker 30 feet away, other awesome stuff.  My brother in law took me, where as most folks took their dad.  He was a weather man, so we also had access to the back cat walk over the huge rear propellers.  We launched weather rockets and weather baloons from that back deck.  We also shot machine guns off the back deck.  They tested a jet engine in the mechanics bay. 

 

I was 15 and it was awesome.
