Though I doubt it'll be accepted since it makes euthanasia into a form of art/fun and what if something would go wrong. | ||

As for the bit about executing criminals- if they want to die like that, sure, why not? | ||

If a lethal injection is done wrong, which it is more than 60% (from what i heard in a documentary) it can cause the victim an incredible amount of pain, and since one of the chemicals they use in the injection is a paralyzing agent, they have no way of letting their pain out via scream. Hypoxia is humane and can almost be euphoric in some situations. | ||

I remember reading a book a long time ago, set in the future where the world population was unsustainable and everyone had to go to large amusement parks where the rides would randomly kill people to adjust the population levels. | ||

An extremely hardened and experienced pilot could withstain maybe a G or two above what a normal human can withstand. They still need the equipment that pressurizes the extremities and forces blood to the brain, among other things. | ||

The construction and maintenance costs alone would be ridiculously prohibitive. Oh yeah, this thing would be ridiculously expensive to build and maintain, I'll grant you that. Problem is, nowadays criminals will fight their execution with every appeal they can come up with, bogging down the judicial system and creating exorbitant legal costs. It would be waay cheaper to execute people with this, IF they don't fight it in the courts. It's a big if, but it's also a big coaster  | ||

No longer a euthanasia coaster. Now the best ride ever. | ||

Very scary, although that might be the case i dont think you can stop people doing what they want to. On that basis something like this will happen in the future unless their is an outcry of opinion against it. My own thoughts are that you should let people do what they want unless you can find a detrimental connection between their actions and your life experiences. | ||

Hypoxia is humane and can almost be euphoric in some situations. Hippocratic oath leads to unskilled administration of the drugs + dosage knowledge is based on what is required for surgical use + paralysis agent preventing inmates from showing obvious signs of pain + massive amounts of adrenaline in some inmates blood may affect how the drug works for them + other obvious complications..... I'm not completely against the death penalty as a concept, but with how it is right now, it's kind of ridiculous. I mean, for example, Veterinarians are advised to not use a paralysis agent, specifically so they can see if the animal is feeling pain during euthanasia..... While anyone on death row has done some terrible shit, killing them in a less humane way than we kill animals is despicable.

Nobody would go on it though, and everyone that did absolutely hated it. | ||
