100 different ways to die in Deus Ex

I notice while many games do this, one doesn't exist for Deus Ex. Could be a good promo tool.
I'd be happy to put one together, with help from a few actors, just need to organize what the 100 entertaining deaths would be.
The idea is, even for what sounds like a normal death e.g. bullets, it would be filmed in an unexpected or entertaining way.
I'll kick off with a few. Please number your suggestions.
1. Being stabbed
2. Being shot
3. Being crushed by another player
4. Typing suicide
5. Having TNT dropped on your head
6. Being eaten by a Karkian
7. Being gassed to death
8. Walking past a LAM
9. Being crushed by an elevator
10. Beaten with a baton

Oh, I got some further (extraordinary) ideas:
11. Eating a super-rocket.
12. Getting vaporized with a neutron bomb.
13. Getting crushed within the rings of a ring transporter.
14. Teleporting to 5146524 with a ring-transporter.
15. Getting targeted for random obliteration by a BowenBot.
16. Provoking "][GODZ][Nobody's EVIL Attack Kitten"
17. Typing the wrong key sequence on the GODZ keypad.
18. Getting killed by a Credit card. (no joke!)
19. Running into a (nasty) BSP hole.
and FINALLY
20. Geting redeemed by a REMOTE KILLSWITCH!

21. Getting crushed by a helicopter
22. Falling to an explosive barrel
23. Falling from a tower (e.g. tower in Twinz)
24. Getting throwed by an elevator (like in the Twinz)
25. Getting crushed by the cage in Cagematch
26. Getting a headshot by an EMP Prod
27. Killing yourself with an energy-ball
28. Getting caught in the women's toilet
I don't have more ideas
Edit: About eating a super-rocket, if you do this, make it in slow-mo

These are really good, thanks for your ideas.
What I would like people to do, is think of about 300 ways. We will choose the best 100-150 and film. Can decide the 100 from seeing the best 100 filmed perhaps.
I'll list some mentioned on server by Chin and Kalman
29. Osiris
30. Nobody's big yellow ball in A51
31. Taking a dump on a firebarrel
32. Dropping a barrel on someone
33. Being run over (mover which looks like vehicle)
34. Falling off a plane
35. That weapon that fires cats. Kitty launcher

ok this is really cool. I like starving to death, didn't see that in other games. Halo 3's was incredibly boring.
Definitely I think we can hit the 200 mark at least, due to some repetition or repetition of someone being shot with something.
62. Trying to be friends with a gray.(radiation)
63. Being too close to your team (nukedeath)
64. Running out of grav-rifle ammo (e.g. on Orbital while ascending/descending the tunnel)
65. Killing yourself with a fire extinguisher
66. Lag ( dropping grenade when planting)
67. The dart trap in DXMP_Pyramid (can be used to illustrate poison dart)
68. Floor gives way (e.g. Hasha's maps)
69. Going for a swim in something gooey ([A]_Mediavel or SG_Area51Bunker)
70. Letting your girlfriend have the keyboard/mouse for a minute
71. Being crushed by lockdown doors (similar to no 25, might as well use no.25)
72. Jumping into the Hadron Collider
73. Being the last player alive in Silence of the LAMS
74. Not noticing the remote explosive dart attached to you (Bowens)
75. Being asked how to bind altfire (typekill)
76. Being killed by RX Lam
77. Typhoon Aug (pending)
78. Armblades Aug/Wep (pending)
79. Anti-Virus update
80. When game ends, someone reconnects and runs around frozen players killing
81. Greazel meat
82. Falling out of a moving spaceship (Nexus)
83. Arena mod - forgetting Anna Navarre's killswitch
84. Cagematch mod - annoying a sniper
85. AvH robots
86. Gauss Gun (Clyzm)
87. Smoking yourself to death (cigarettes)
88. Taking too many drugs (zyme)
89. Drinking too much and walking into a / falling off a .....
90. someone shooting the glass roof that you're standing on (funny)
91. Rebreather fail
UPDATE: Chinny is recording NPC noises and deaths/screams etc. We will need some voice actors though, male and female.

From looking at your statement, it appears you haven't actually watched the Gmod video.
We are using DX voices, and if possible Poor's input will be greatly valued too, but if you read the list of ways to die, some will require voice acting, just as in the Gmod vid. It's already been stated we will use DX voices and Chinny is recording. Take Chinny's brother way to die, or someone's gf, etc, we would need some voice acting, same as in the Gmod vid.
Sorry Kalman, didn't quite understand number 94.

Did you try that? I think you don't die.

you're right, i was thinking of showing things that the game could do beyond straight shooters e.g Halo, COD etc. So for this one I would show a player taking the drug, then show his 1st person view, being totally intoxicated and not being able to see the enemy.
I admit, it's not a way to die.
At DJ, I just think some voice acting is required for one or two deaths, to set characters not in the game without leaving the genre of the game engine, e.g brother/gf etc.
The brother voice can be really annoying and the gf voice can be really pathetic and useless.
The project is my idea, but I'm not spoiling people's fun, I appreciate everyone's thoughts.
