The moment u realize that even death has a girlfriend and u dont
HawkeN Gaming Channel whahahahaha😂😂😂😂 exactly
HawkeN Gaming Channel aw
I knew this kind of comment is waiting down here.
This made my day.. XD
U
When you add the Grim Reaper to your household in The Sims.
TheCrazyBritish yes
lololololololololololololololololololololololololol
Grim staring at all the dead Sims covered in their own fecal matter:💀 “You sick, twisted, crazy British fuck!” 🤢🤮
A great story- The grim reaper is one of the most misunderstood caricatures. Apparently his duty is to guide you from your life to the afterlife while making sure that it’s completely stress free for you. He also attends your funeral to tell you the nice things people say about you 😮 😊❤❤
It was so nice and calming to read... thank you :)
Thank you, I feel better now. 😊
¿La Parca? Las Parcas eran tres mujeres de edad que venían a visitarte, una teje la vida, la otra la extiende y la tercera le corta el hilo.
Yeah its actually the story of the grinch
I honestly cry every single time because I've had a lot of death in my family lately..
Mad respect. That's a tough profession to be in and raise a family.
I know. The hours are insane.
Really? Business is always great.
m.th-cam.com/video/uZdv-TtiMkg/w-d-xo.html
@@yugandali Business be booming 😂 big bucks.
I lost it when it showed that he had children XD
John Conway hahaha
John Conway 69th like
Ooh it make sense ! I thought it was him younger with his brother\sister like , a flashback of her mother 😂i'm so dumb
John Conway yeah same it made my face be wtf 😂
😂😂😂
Death can't outrun death
Marc Vinning you cant run from yourself
Marc Vinning yes but if you're lucky you can dodge it
@@bethlehemisgay4752 your lucky if your lucky
But Octane sure does
As a network administrator, it was hilarious to see that even Death himself gets pissed at a printer. 😂😂👍👍
So unexpected. Well written, choreographed, acted, and edited. A true treasure and I'm so thankful it came to my attention.
legend says he became friends two little kids name billy and mandy.
Scrot Tom that show is so old
Young Metro ....... Wow.
LOL, I remember that show.
Scrot Tom Dude, I loved that show!! :'D
I really missed that show
I knew there was gonna be little deaths I knew it
They are cute! :3
The Hanzo Main - Plz switch
The Hanzo Main o
The Hanzo Main. But is not sad is move
The Hanzo Main thank you for spoiling everything ;(
1:45 I really wasn't expecting this.
LMFAO 😂😂😂😂
Yea bro same here
Lmao
Thought that was not allowed on Utube.... unless you breast feeding.... I was going to say unless you have a child attached to them.... then say its educational like that Utube channel with the mother and her 7 - 10 year old "son"... no child social services called on that B.... LOL
Same!
This was so weird and just an utter joy to watch! Greatly made as well!
Death is so kind, he kills us for mercy..
silences never thought of it like that..
This video is just telling you carpe diem. Sieze the day. Don't live your whole life with the mindset that you're going to die someday, live your whole life with the mindset that you are going to LIVE. Every. Single. Day.
thanks for the spoiler
Bruderfaust I thought this video was about the ironic death of death
Julian M where did he spills any of the video?
Dead is constant for you humans
Bruderfaust Where did you even get that from?
Loved it. Great story line and well directed. I loved the concept. Death has a life too. 👍👍
This was a brilliant short on "The life of Death!" You had me rooting for him the whole time! He was a carismatic chatacter, and the story was gripping even as minimal words were spoken!
Of course it would take a Volkswagen to kill death.
Should have been a dodge. Think that would have been funnier
How Unfortunate should have been a mustang
Kieran O'Connor a Peugeot
Kieran O'Connor Should it've rather been Nissan or Landrover? Fucktard
Kieran O'Connor I agree
This was brilliant. Funny and touching in the same time. You made Death seem so human. And Death reading a book titled "How to Live"... and the montage with "All the Little Things" song... priceless. Keep up the great work.
Reminded me so much of Death in the Discworld novels (RIP, Sir Terry) except for the absence of cats. His poor family.
@@wrayewenigmann3696I thought of Discworld too n Binky. Personifications of death always interest me. Would love to see a feature length “Life of Death”. This was a really cool short though. R.I.P. Sir Terry.😊❤
Thank you .
the way i personally interpreted this film is that death is not the end of existing. death is personafied as a human, and though he is still death, he lives what is our ultimate fate. not all of us experience it as tragic. i think this film is trying to emphasize that the possibility of death, the thought, the fantasy of it, the result is alive within us all. we have a great understanding of what it is to live but not the understanding of what and why death is.
I think I got this from the beginning, that this was one person's individual life, and, we're seeing parts of it, that most human beings have in common!
it's weird that I'm watching way to many videos about death :0
same here...
Make it another, isn't it weird?
Catch ya on the flip side...
well, the most interesting aspect of life is Death
me too, are am i going to die?
*THE SIMS* PLAYER CAN RELATE :D
Fitri Dayanti ikr
Absolutely hahaha ❤️
Good
Hiii
Mamy listopad 2023 a widzę ten film po raz pierwszy!!? Jak to możliwe!? Świetny pomysł, świetnie zrobiony! Brawo!
this is a fabulous short film (i almost wish it had been longer), thank you for the upload
But how Death was born?
the same progress i guess
Anna Yannaka from the first dead person on this planet
but how did that person die if there wasn't death? ;)
Anna Yannaka Dammit, stop rapping my brain
Raskis Geometry dash I
I enjoyed this on so many levels. thank u
Jose D which part?
death is life.life is death. one cant be without the other.
2 things that are opposite to one another yet need each other.
life goes on because of death. im ok. im 36. slowly learning that life is ok.
like the Ramones once sung... i dont want to be buried in a pet cemetery, i dont want to live my life again.
i enjoyed this short so much. thank you.
How clever and adorable. I definitely have to share this one with my friends and social groups.
I honestly just love this. if it was made into a tv show. i would watch it
If it was comedy I would watch it all day everyday
I hate that they NEVER make these shows.
The one that came close was Lucifer.
Isn’t there an older series called Death Becomes Her that is a bit like that?
Dead Like Me early 2000’s
This is fantastic! I actually had a rather similar idea for a film where Death experiences life! Props to you on your execution of the idea!
1:46 now it looks fun being death
The Turtle Anyone can do that 😉
Excellent job. I love seeing original ideas and this is one of those. Brilliant.
Totally loved this! They should make more! 🖤
Zajebiście nagrane! Super ujęcie z kawiarni, scena z pralni taki klasyczek :D No i dzieci na koniec mega urocze ;) Well done!
Why did I laugh when death got killed?!
dont worry i did to XD
Because of the fucking irony of a being that is dead and takes the souls of people got killed by a car
It’s Very funny don’t worry
It's because most to no know one loves to be visited by that angel ( death ). It's common logical thinking about that angel. Anyway love the video, lol!
@@musaicc5761 Not even death can outrun Truck-kun.
Such a creative and ironicly sarcastic at the same time. Good job man. Underrated
Intelligent. Funny. Cool. Outstanding. Great name for the movie. Whoever made this should make long feature films. PHENOMENAL!!
The beginning of the video shows some really good images, who ever made that really knows how to capture a moment! that skilled photography shows all throughout the video, and really gives it a sense of depth and quality! but... the video itself is pointless, not very interesting, and very basic considering its "ALL MIGHTY DEATH" even though he was just a guy who got run over, the end.
UserDude That's not really the meaning of the short film, it's more of a "death meets us all" and at the end, the man's children are next.
yu mean by gud image is boobs rigt oho ohhhh B)
To Saarian: If that was the message then it went southwards. Hence the man in the hospital, should be dressed as death himself too. I don't see it absolutely the way you do. To each his opinion of course. Still a nice idea from you that made me think a bit.
Saarian That sounds plausible. But I have to agree with "UserDude". The point of the short film isn't very obvious. After watching it I thought something like "Ok... that's it?".
And if the point of the video should be really "death meets us all", then unfortunately it's a bad one. Because you don't say.
i didn’t read your comment but Yato is best
Thank you for making this- loved the ending!
Still a better love story than Twilight.
Why does everyone say that lmao
@@tallstar6969 because twilight is a horrible love story
"The Life of Death" is a poignant and visually captivating short film that explores the unlikely relationship between life and death. Through minimal dialogue and powerful imagery, the film beautifully depicts Death as a character with a gentle and curious demeanor, in stark contrast to its commonly perceived ominous presence.
The animation's stunning visuals, with a mix of dark and vibrant colors, symbolize the coexistence of life and death. The delicate interactions between Death and various living creatures, including animals and plants, highlight the cyclical nature of existence and the inevitability of mortality.
The film's emotive soundtrack complements the storytelling, evoking a sense of wonder, melancholy, and acceptance. The portrayal of Death as a compassionate being challenges the conventional fear associated with it, presenting a more compassionate and natural aspect of the concept.
Ultimately, "The Life of Death" is a profound exploration of the beauty found within the circle of life, emphasizing the importance of embracing both the joy of living and the inevitability of passing on. It invites viewers to contemplate the interconnectedness of existence and the significance of embracing every moment.

2:11 to 2:15 Death is like "Fuck this shit I'm fucking out"
Janice Springfield haha
Janice Springfield hahahahaahahahah
"It is not death which can eternal lie and with strange aeons even death may die"

I thought this was from “The Thing That Should Not Be”, by Metallica. I guess they lifted it from H.P.
When our perishable being puts on imperishable life, when our mortal being puts on #immortality, the word of #Scripture will be fulfilled: Death has been swallowed up by victory.
St Paul, 1 #Corinthians 15:54
I just realized... I'm still a single shit... And Death here has a wife/girlfriend and kids.
and now?
Great, fun story. EXCELLENT production value. I couldn’t believe what I was watching. Wonderful!!!!
1:45, yes... i like this death thing...
Delive Rick me too 😏
Fuck yes
tits
Jake LS You’re making it sound like you’re uninterested in women after having a girlfriend. What’d she do to you? lmao
Delive Rick lol
Ow damnit my chest hurts.... feels like, I got hit by a car.
That's brilliant. In a world of sequels an actual new idea. Bravo.
I watched the whole thing, I really liked it! It held my attention and I found it funny. Well done!
Sounds like a great Tim Burton/ Dr Seuss movie concept.
Piękna jakość, piękne kadry (m.in. ten z perspektywy cmentarza na miasto
Death just took 5 min's of my life I can never get back. Thanks Death!
True
If death dies does everyone just become immortal??
Death is a good guy but he kills all living things but he did not mean it
Destiny (1921)
Francis Berba u came here from the life of death animated ?
2ddoge no
What the hell did I just watch? This is like an acid trip gone horribly Wrong.
Will you do another one of Death? I want more!! Great, great job guys!!!!!!!
"He was an important part of the community...he will be missed"
A lot of short films have been uploaded in the last several years. This is one of them.
When one Death ends, there are still others that remain to take its place.
So well done, so well told. One of my new favorite short films.
Well done. Really enjoyed it. Good production. Kick ass soundtrack.
2:15 how i deal with homeworks
Zeidi Zesley I relate⊙_⊙(￣.￣)(￣.￣)
Yep same me :')
Very good short. It's actually genius if you think about it. The Life of Death. Awesome concept.
I just love stuff like this. So original, and its nice when you discover you haven't seen it all and something makes you go, WTF?
This video is so cool i love the idea of it thanks for making it
I think Terry Pratchett would've gotten a kick out of this. "He who speaks in all caps" is one of my favorite characters in Discworld (as well as my role model, Granny Weatherwax).
I think the producers of this film modeled Death on the character in the Discworld novels by Terry Pratchett.
Just goes to show that everyone has a life even the one who takes those lifes
Oddly poetic. 🤔
When you are Death, respect is hard to come by.
FABULOUS! Great concept, idea...exceptional and insightful! funny yet sad! thank you!
And how da crab does he kiss someone with no face!?!
actually death does have a face its just a skeleton
Hiii
I love it!
Amazing job, well done ❤ loved it.
Precious time to pass death by and live with the same
Anyone can explain me the message of this short film. I didn't understand it.
Thank you.
the part when he got hit by the car 😂😂 lmao
dark knight i know , i was lmao
What an incredibly original and refreshing look at death...
My heart was melting when he blew out his candles and when he tried to strangle Santa lol
1:45 how the hell did youtube let that through?!
I liked it😛🍑🍩🍩
I enjoy mmmmmmmm
babby NIICEEE
Morons
Omg
I really enjoyed watching this movie! Going in my 'film inspo' playlist. However, I do wish that there was a bit more of an obvious resolution to the story after his death. But overall, it was a very easy watch and is a great film :)
A joy.....Thank you.
That was so good. Bravo! And I love the polish crew 🇵🇱 Pozdrawiam z Australii
1:44 best moment of all video and 2:02
You might censor the peeker scene, cuz youtube has full rights to delete this vid right now.
Also, this is the most weird shit i've seen, death growing up.. nice job though
Shhhh enjoy the view
LOVE IT!! Can't wait for the Sequel!!
This was STARKLY beautuful
This is pure Gold!
Long feature films can never come close to this!
Also at 1:20
cosplay gone wrong!
Aww, sweet ending. Death is gone, but he’s got a couple of little boners to carry on his legacy! ❤️❤️
Death waits beside us every single moment of our lives, and while it has a grim duty to perform, can finally be embraced at the end…and in a way, becomes our very last friend
That's a unique perspective. What a stunner fantasy!
can I can as to how death has children I men...hes a spooky Skelton in a cloak, hes kinda lacking the equipment if you know what I mean
He got a Boner
Yeah, he can't really do what he needs to do lmao
He ain't got no dick lmaoo
Fudge but he still has a bone 😏
alaster boneman, the reason she "Bumped Uglies" with him is because he has the biggest Boner in the world!
alaster boneman it's meant to be can I *ask* to
1:45 😎😎😎
amazing 😎
Really enjoyed the video. Very thought provoking.
Mi osobiście bardzo się podoba. Dobrze zrobione

1:47
Hello nurse!)))))))))))
That peeking seen - I actually rewinded on that. I was like "whoa! whoa! whoa!".
I love how you don’t really see any people staring at death cause it’s just a regular day in NY
When death has a better life then you
no dialog but i am still understand mean this movie
Sister life, brother death. this moment of life that dies, this moment of life that dies, this moment of death that lives again. perceive things as they are.
THIS IS SO UNDERRATED OMG
