I'm stunned. Fair enough parents want to feel that their son/daughter can talk to them about these kind of things but this is absolutely awful. Absolutely wrong way to go about it.

What the ****..There are MANY nicer ways to do this. Faking a death isn't at all funny, because (and let's hope this doesn't happen) If he does, you wouldn't believe it.

What kinda person would do that, **** that

On top of making a prank out of a loved one dying they ruined your vacation!!

Seems like your parents have some growing up to do.

What. The. ****.

Wow that's awful, hopefully they never do anything like that again.

Did he really die though?

Hey, at least your best friend didn't actually die. Your parents may suck, but I think that would suck worse.

Bide your time with this and have someone call your parents in the future saying you've been in an accident. Someone who can sound official. "Is this Mrs Smith? It is, okay... There's been a road traffic collision and we believe the young woman involved is your daughter. Your daughter will be taken to *insert local hospital*." Make it sound official and hopefully they'll panic and shit, then when they find out there's nothing wrong with you ask them how they like it.
