In this article, we consider a fast diffusive type doubly nonlinear parabolic equation and study the extinction behavior of a solution at a finite time. We show the complete extinction of a weak solution with a nonnegative initial datum, that is, a weak solution is positive before a finite time and vanishes after it, and derive the optimal decay estimates of extinction. Our key ingredient of the proof is a nonlinear intrinsic scaling and the expansion of positivity.
