What is the most memorable death in the series?

There are, for me anyway, many answers to this questions depending on how it's asked. For example...

1. Most "memorable" for me is easily the bus kill (a real buzz kill) in the first FD movie because I really didn't know anything about the movie when I first saw it. My wife and I had gone to see another movie but we didn't feel like waiting the hour that we had to because we forgot to check start times prior to going out that night. So there we are, minding our own business and wham! Very unexpected.

2. Guilty pleasure moment is a tie for me between the barbed wire slicing in FD-2 and dicing and the nail gun piercing in FD-3. Honorable mention to FD-3, again, seeing the 2 vain bimbos shaking and baking in the tanning beds. Who didn't want to see that?

3. Most cringe-worthy moment is the pool drain scene in FD-2009. That's the one death I fear suffering the most.

4. Best fake-out has to be the fire escape eye popping in FD-2. There are just so many possibilities in that scene.

5. Best post-death moment goes to Sean William Scott delayed body sag after the piece of metal beheads him in FD-2000. Another honorable mention for the post-death body twitching in FD-3 after the kid gets the sign dropped on him during the fireworks. Watch carefully in the far away shot immediately following the "squish" for the best twitching.

Anyway, as you can see there are many great deaths to be enjoyed throughout the series and depending on WHAT you might think makes a good death scene matters very much on how the question is posed.
