It's funny I don't fear death and I don't fear the process but there are a few ways that I would not want to die. Burning to death would be high on that list as it is extremely painful to burn. I was burned fairly severely on my legs as a kid. The pains of death from old age that I have seen do not really scare me.
That being said, and what I wanted to mention is that I don't fly, not because I fear death by plane crash but because I made the mistake of listing to a flight recorder one time and I developed a phobia of dying around a bunch of other people sharing that same fate. It really shook me that to die in a situation like that, it would be very hard to make your peace with death. With all the screaming and pleading going on around you. Not that I don't have empathy for those people but I have to steady myself and god forbid my family for the inevitable.
I always liked the quote from Marcus Aurelius "Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back"
I think of that quote a lot when I am spearfishing and there are sharks around.
