How did Dora the Explorer really die

Rest assured, the titular character did not canonically die in the show. Dora the Explorer aired on for an impressive run of 19 years, from 2000 to 2019, closing out with its own movie. However, in the entirety of its run, the children's animated cartoon did not allude to Dora's death even once. That leads to the question — What does Google pull up for the search result then? Surely if the answer was that Dora didn't die at all, it would not elicit the dramatic reactions that have been populating the platform over the past couple of days. A quick cursory Google search of 'How did Dora the Explorer die' redirects users to a Fandom.com page titled List of Deaths Wiki. The page mentions 'Dora Kill Count -17,' listing out 17 different death scenarios for the explorer. Amongst these gruesome premonitions, the ones most commonly cited in the comments of the trend include, "Pushed into quicksand by Boots," "Fell to her death when her parachute failed to open," "Knocked into a river by Swiper and drowned," and "Disintegrated by a lightning bolt." These aren't just the unrestrained musings and speculations of wildly imaginative brains. All of these morbid scenarios stem from a 2012 musical spoof on YouTube by TheStringiniBros titled Dora No More. The video was surprisingly popular among elementary schoolers back in the day, boasting 8.7 million hits and 88k likes. Despite being a simple parody, the aftermath of this video generated quite the frenzy on TikTok. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
