Star Trek: Every Redshirt Death Ranked From Worst To Best

Episode: And The Children Shall Lead (S3E4)

Cause Of Death: Accidentally beamed into the vacuum of space.

Also dying offscreen, the only reason these nameless crewmen rank higher than Crewman Matthews is because we get two for the price of one, and accidentally beamed into the vacuum of space is both more painful and also funnier than getting thrown off a cliff.

Let me prove that out. More painful: getting depressurized is super painful according to some websites I’ve read and some movies I’ve watched. Funnier: You thought Crewman Matthews was surprised when Ruk pushed him off a cliff? Imagine the flabbergasted look on these dudes’ mugs when the transporter rematerialized them in space. Those flabbergasted looks are probably permanently frozen on their faces.
