Death - no one dies

Are you playing with mods by any chance? Some mods prevent death by emotion, where an overly-excited Sim can die from hysteria, for instance. Emotional deaths are the most common ones, though. Death by electrocution or lightning strikes have to happen a second time while the Sim is in a daze from the first event. Those deaths rarely happen unless the Sim tries to repair an object directly after being electrocuted, or directly after they are struck by lightning.

Other than a mod blocking it, my guess is that you are too careful. (Like me). Also, autonomously they (The Sims) will prevent a death. Even with autonomy shut off, though that gives a higher chance of a death occurring. I've seen many NPC's go to a mirror to calm down. (For example).

For an exciting death (and kinda sad) Here you go:

I only have MCCC and the only thing I've set on to do with death is that when someone dies the family inherit.
But even my whole town, I rarely have anyone drop dead, they all live forever, well extreme old age!!!
My own played Sims, I probably do play too cautiously

ohhh I felt sorry for her!

Oh dear, I think I am not cut out to have my sims die! hahahahaha

Despite being careful, my vampires always seem to die from sunlight... Unless they have the sun immunity power.

I've only had my Sims die of old age. ...Except one townie that I locked in my Sim's house who died of starvation, I believe.

One Sim drowned in Saluni while going for a swim autonomously.

My sims die from either old age or mod related deaths. I almost never get death by fire or anything else.

I've had deaths by fire with starter sims that didn't have cooking skill (or very little) and used the cheapest stove.

Death by emotion is generally easy to see coming since you really have to push a lot of factors to get them to such a high emotional state. I think I got a death by laughter once or twice when sims were telling jokes for a long time in an funny environment and already very happy sims. The one death by anger I had had to be forced since it required so many moodlets, so I was doing every different instance of mean and aggravating interaction I could find, in very quick succession. I haven't had any really random deaths.

The few electrocutions I have seen when insisting on having a low handiness sim repair electronics have only got them singed, and I think they would be more likely to die if they kept working with electricity while singed.

Oh, I've also had elders die by exhaustion, including once right after woohoo, I think (he might have been working out right before). Oops! It's the only "unexpected" death I got. I didn't know that could happen at the time.

In general, if you're somewhat careful, deaths don't really happen. The truly random ones seem very rare.

One time i got an elderly sim to die from woohooing too much!
