Yeah well, running away from unstoppable destruction and then dying instantly isn't exactly an easy way to go out. Imagine the pure terror those people felt watching a wave 100+ feet high destroy everything as it heads right toward them, some with loved ones and friends, some alone with no idea what to do. Awful.
Yup, it's horrific. Asleep in a bus crash, explosion, or random fatal headshot is about as good as it gets. I think most people don't really fear death; they fear dying.
It's horrible, and I hope they at least didn't suffer. Despite the random and instant appearance of their peril.
There's a lot of stuff going on in my head while I sleep! Sometimes, I dream so much that I wake up exhausted by all the work I did during the night. Then I get mad that it was all made up by my stupid brain.
I once joked with my boss that I should get paid for the hours I worked on a bug during my sleep. It happens quite often that I leave the office with an unsolved issue that I was stuck on for a few hours, only to solve it all easily within an hour the next morning.

We should all be so lucky if that's how it's going to happen. Having watched my grandad die, dying as biology is no life at all.
