Dumb Ways to Die
Beans hero

Meet the Beans

Follow the lives of the Beans that live with impulsive, gleeful naivety. The decisions they make are dumb, funny and clearly unsafe, designed to hold up a mirror to our own dumb behaviour.

Numpty

Numpty

One day, Numpty discovered fire and was captivated. Curiosity got the better of Numpty when lit matches landed squarely on his head.

Stumble

Stumble

Stumpy loves listening to music at full volume on his headphones. Unfortunately, this means he never hears the sounds of danger approaching.

Mishap

Mishap

Mishap decided to keep a snake as a pet. It was never an easy relationship. The game of fetch never caught on. And neither did the afternoon hose bath.

Clod

Clod

Clod's working life started as a door-to-door door salesman. He manages to find himself quite busy for those willing to open their doors.

Pillock

Pillock

Pillock is quite absent minded, he never remembers what day it is! One day, he accidentally ate expired medicine and developed lumps all over his body.

Dummkopf

Dummkopf

Dummkopf is impatient and doesn't like waiting, especially for food. His impatience led to disaster when he stuck a fork into the toaster.

Ninny

Ninny

Ninny loves anything red. Red lights, red flags, red buttons, you name it! She tends to go pushing any red buttons she finds. Nothing will stop her and her curiosity.

Dippy

Dippy

Dippy has always loved to play in the water. She even thinks swimming in piranha-infested waters is fun!

Botch

Botch

Botch loves to do two things. Dressing as a moose and running in the forest during hunting season. Neither are good ideas. Together they're a disaster.

Bungle

Bungle

Bungle was probably hiding behind a door the day brains were handed out. He likes to play hide-and-seek. Some would say he's the World Champion of hide-and-seek because, when Bungle hides, he's never found.

Nincompoop

Nincompoop

Nincompoop is a wonderfully creative artist, but very clumsy! He is always experimenting with new paints, and sometimes mixes up his drinking water with paint water.

Dunce

Dunce

When it comes to money, Dunce is about as smart as a stick. Attempting to solve his financial problems, he sold both his kidneys on the internet.

Calamity

Calamity

In her high school Calamity was named as the girl most likely to die in a disaster. Nobody predicted a tube of glue would be Calamity's final hurrah.

Loopy

Loopy

Loopy likes to think he's pretty good at sports. Unfortunately, he's a little bit awkward and extremely accident prone, so whenever he plays sport, he always manages to injure himself in the dumbest ways possible.

Numskull

Numskull

Numskull loves pretty, bright lights, so she brought an abandoned space station to see them closely. Then she took her helmet off for a better look.

Zany

Zany

Zany is incredibly competitive. She will do anything for a trophy, on a particularly snowy day, that even includes taping fireworks to her skis.

Putz

Putz

Putz likes the easy life. If there were an award for laziness, Putz would have someone else pick it up for him. Even if his seat was in front of a moving train.

Simpleton

Simpleton

Whenever Simpleton gets a moment to relax he loves to dive deep into his books and writing. This, of course, includes when crossing train tracks.
