About

Death By Snu Snu or simply Snu-Snu is a term for sexual intercourse originally used by a tribe of giant female, Amazonian-like aliens in the animated television series Futurama. Online, the catchphrase "death by snu snu" is typically used in memes or jokes as a humorous reference in discussions about exceptionally tall or muscular women.

Origin

In Season 3 Episode 1 of Futurama, originally aired on February 4th, 2001,[1] the male crew members of the Planet Express Ship are taken hostage by Amazonians, a tribe of giant women in an alien matriarchal society who use the word "snu-snu" as a synonym for sexual intercourse.
