Two choices, both suck.

Gun shot while defending someone close to me.

That's admirable and all, but... the choices are...
Well, thanks for playin'.

Falling, I'd do funny poses to entertain any onlookers.

Falling would suck much much less than getting squeezed to death

For me both would involve shitting.
I'd rather be squeezed to death by a python.
Seems more heroic, and I'd be keeping the food chain going.

I'd have to say falling, only because I don't think a python can kill me. I am far too advanced; with my opposable thumb and frontal lobe and what not.

Don't be so sure.

I saw one up close once.
35 feet long and thick as an oak tree.
Terrifying.

Am I wrong if I still think I can kill it?
Man. . . this superior intellect has me feeling arrogant lately.

Being killed by the python seems like it would be a more memorial death, especially if it happens while falling from a tall building.

I'd play it off so that the autopsy revealed I was giving him the Stone Cold stunner off the top of the building. I'd be a fucking American hero.

I' have to take falling because I hate snakes! But I always kind of thought I'd die at the hands of a jealous husband

The Retics and Burms get big, but not quite 35 feet. Still big enough to easily kill you, but I gotta nitpick on that point. I think "fluffy" is the biggest in captivity, and is pushing 25-26 feet now.

The one who killed the woman in Tennessee last year was only about ten feet. I own a pet store and won't even special order those damn things. I've yet to meet anyone who could properly handle a big adult that would want one.

Probably falling because you would pass out from fright before you splatted on the pavement below
There are urban myths about sky divers surviving falls because they passed out and their bodies were limp and pliable when they hit a haystack or something like that
I can't look at a snake and not think 'evil sneaky fucker'
It may have been an Anaconda that I saw. It was from a South American rain forest, I believe. Maybe Africa.
When I saw it the first thing I thought was "those old Tarzan movies are full of shit. This motherfucker ever grabs ya and flexes you'd snap like a twig."

Falling off a building is so much better. If it's high enough like the Trade Towers or Sears you'll suffocate from the air being sucked out of your lungs before you hit the ground.

Super tall building would be the way to go. If it was a trip and fall thing, that would suck. You would probably pass out from fear. If you were to jump though, you could do the tricks and flips that Instrument was talking about.

I have dreams that I am going to be eaten by a shark. I think I might be psychotic and I have seen my own death.

I'd totally make some sort of homemade wings and try them out.

falling by far. getting murdered by a lesser species is just embarassing.

Falling would be terrifying but a quick death. And maybe I'd get lucky and pancake a parked car and set off a bunch of alarms just like in the movies. Having a python squeeze my eyeballs out of my head and my guts out of my asshole sounds both terrifying and excessively painful.

I could not die by falling.
My dad parachuting out of a helicopter in the Army fell 3000 feet when his main cigar rolled leaving him with a quarter of a chute that slowed him a bit. He was so busy trying to untangle the thing he did not look down so he fell limp. He fractured L1, blew out L2, and had a compression fracture of L3. Both knees and ankles were shot, and there are issues with his hips. He was paralyzed at first, and still has some paralysis but fortunately he can walk. He has pain issues of course, and his lower back on Xray looks absolutely horrible, but he was damn fortunate.

You're right, the white man really is a burden to me. I think it's time for RACE WARS!!!!!!

id think the falling one would be more instantaneous, therefore less painful

Falling from the building. Only the landing hurts in that option. I have always freaked out when I had a hard time breathing so the python would be horrible.

I say the falling one which is weird cause I'm terrified of heights. I couldn't even give an explanation as to why but viscerally that's what I'd choose.
Definitely the fall from a tall building, and on my way down I'd pretend I was rowing a boat to amuse the tourists.

Thank you. My mom was 3 months prego with me and she watched it happen.
