    a man is lying dead in a field. He is holding a straw. How did he die?
    Did he unfortunately end up with the short straw?

    Would the man be considered to be a normal adult male prior to his death?

    Do the circumstances dictate that it has to be a field?

    no, but a field is where you would imagine the incident would happen.

    Does the "incident" involve an aircraft in any way?

    Were there people on a damaged aircraft, but not enough parachutes (short one parachute) so they drew straws to see who would be jumping without a parachute?

    ( Phwew, somehow I managed to say all that in the form of a question )

    He was chucked him out of the aircraft to reduce weight after drawing straws.
    Come on Andrew, it's very similar to my first suggestion about the unopened parachute isn't it?
