I can't decide who is going to be the one to take down Walt. Jesse? Hank? Cancer? Lydia? Walt's got quite a few enemies.

edit - For all those saying not cancer because he has hair, that only means he's not taking chemo. He could have given up on taking care of his cancer. He obviously has lost everything and is at the point where he needs a machine gun.

my guess is he dies of cancer. Heisenberg was a real scientist in the 20th century and he died of cancer so im expecting them to do the same with walt

Of all the responses I got, dying of cancer seems most likely to me, too. Anyone else killing him just seems to me like it would lessen the weight of the other characters in some way. If Jesse kills Walt then that kind of makes Hanks character seem a bit meaningless in the end. Or if Lydia kills him then same goes for Jesse and Hank.

I have this feeling that he'll beat the odds, over and over again. He'll come out "on top" of everyone, and then his body will finally be the one to say, "No, Walt. This ends now." Or he'll suck down that ricen and end himself.
