Unsuccessful, I saw a shadow on the window and in a fit of rage, picked up the trunk at the foot of the bed and tossed it out at the shadow, had a heart attack and died. 2nd guy: I was really happy because I just got a job washing windows when suddenly, a dresser came flying out from inside, hit me, causing me to lose balance and fall to my death. 3rd guy: Well, for me, I was jogging when I stopped to catch my breath. When I looked up and saw a trunk and a guy falling towards me... Guy ahead of them: Man that's tough, but at least you all know how you guys died. I don't even know what happened to me. All I know is that I was hiding in a trunk from some crazy guy and next thing I knew, I was here..."
 * Another one:
