Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (SNES) Death Reel

This is a video of all the times I've died, got a game over or failed in a bonus area in my playthrough of "Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest" on the SNES. This was intended for those who want all the BS cut out and get to the best parts where my inept gaming skills are on full display. Hope you get a good laugh at my own expense.
EDIT (10/3/2021): I am surprised at the success of this particular video, especially since it wasn't even a year old. I'm quite speechless. I had a blast producing these compilations and I'm happy it was all worth it in the end. I can't thank you all enough for willing to watch some nobody's incompetence on screen. You guys rock!
EDIT (12/1/2023): Dude, this video has finally reached 100K views! I never thought this would ever occur but the unthinkable happens. Once again, all of you guys and gals deserve more than what I'm saying here but every single one of you are awesome! Thank you all and peace out, dudes and dudettes! :)
Here's to anyone that wishes to watch the full run after this:

Took me a few play throughs to stop dying like this

[@theraymansonicandretrogamesfan]

The death theme is so different in different stages

[@EchoCedric561]

correct, it depends on the environment to match the overall feel. The same goes for the 1up celebrations for diddy and dixie

(Singing) 🎶 It's like you have already lost 🎶

[@MrEvilbyte]

0:20 Quite a long fall there. 0:35 And the idiot Klobber suicides into the lava afterward. 2:45 The game had you dead to rights there. 4:21 Another long fall. 5:11 Ooh, that's two lives lost there... 5:55 That Klobber is a jerk. 9:32 Those stupid Nine-tails.... 10:15 Not the longest fall, but still a long fall. 10:23 Dixie hasn't had a long fall yet, so there you go. 12:20 How close can you be and still lose? That section is pretty evil... 13:52 Heh 14:59 Maybe not the intended way to get that Coin, but it works. 16:14 That's just the game being an ass right there. 16:42 Love the two consecutive dead Zingers falling xD 19:12 Upteemth long fall. 21:03 That Kutlass REALLY wanted her dead .... like, after she was dead. 22:55 Oh CMON game!

[@samuelpinhosilvapinhosilva8386]

To me, that noise always sounded like them hitting their backs on the floor and dixie cry kinda funny.

[@damacattack8434]

This was just so fucking funny to watch.

[@henrythepurplepoodledog612]

Let's be honest, guys. That squawks section of animal antics was pain in ass part in this game. Especially you had to be extra careful with wind part.

[@amsbeats841]

I've played this game since I was a kid and it somehow never registered that the death music is different depending on the instruments used in the background track of the level

[@periodstory1156]

11:00 that was some bs

I remember this part when I was a kid 0:21

The game over it’s kinda sad maybe it’s an Oven or a Cell

7:21 its just one of those days back then, lol

[@gresonvillaluz]

8:27 LOL!!!😆😆😆

[@nateboy1489]

19:42…what happened there? That had to be intentional.

[@TheEriccorpinc]

Normally, I don't intentionally die in these games as they are genuine screwups. Very rarely will I do this for actual reasons. That one was because I didn't mean to reenter the bonus stage so I just killed myself to leave it.

If you hit the start button at the correct frame you die the death music is much longer

5:12 what happened there? You lost 2 lives instead of the usual one life?

[@TheEriccorpinc]

The black Klobber that hits me forces me to drop a Red Balloon which counts as one of my lives, then I got killed by the Zinger when I got knocked back so I lost two lives in one go.

[@dorourke105]

you are just doing this for demo purposes right? i mean you don’t suck this bad i hope

[@TheEriccorpinc]

These deaths were ripped straight from a playthrough I recorded back in 2020. The suckage you see here is straight from my terrible playing skills. Okay to be specific, they are a few of them that I died on purpose because I didn't want to go there. But I can tell you, 99% of the fails are unintentional.
