Discussion A funny, stupid, working idea here.

[dioxide]

I've got this idea, i want to share it as it may sound stupid, but maybe working?

I think i could purchase a simple and cheap coffin, make two holes into a side of it, connect a tank of nitrogen to one of the holes with a tube, open the window of my room, open the valve of the tank, put myself into the coffin, close the top (for what i know they are air proof) and fall asleep forever.

So the nitrogen will slip inside, while the oxygen will be exaled from the other hole.

When someone will find me, breaking the door of my room, will find me "ready" into the coffin, so they will have minimum effort.

Does it sounds stupid? It may work?

If its stupid and it works, it ain't stupid.
Sounds very doable however :)

To me it sounds awesome...I was thinking about that, to die in a coffin but it was too much work for me

Actually, without even trying to think beyond your post, I think it sounds brilliant, far from stupid my friend. We will see what our technocrat members think, though. But good inventive thinking.

Great idea. But wouldn't it be a little obvious if you bought a coffin and let it ship to your house?

Not a stupid idea at all. It's a bit funny I'm not going to lie, it does however sound practical as well. My only concern would be what forever21 mentioned. It might raise a few red flags and draw unwanted attention.

Not sure how one would go about sealing a casket from the inside - I'm sure they aren't designed that way. I also wouldn't advise underestimating the inevitable claustrophobia for most people in the final moments.

He could practise sleeping in it to fight off claustrophobia

Nah, they can ship it to any garage, and those organizations are used to be very discreet, can be easy to arrange it in certain times or also in the night and as reason, you can simply tell that you need it for a documentary, for a movie with vampires, for halloween scene, for photo shoots or for whatever reason somone like. A wooden box is not any kind of controlled material and that is not breaking any law.

Tell any interested parties that you read about Korean coffin therapy and are thinking of opening one of your own.

Yah, that is exacly the kind of shape i have in mind. I guess somone can just make it himself with a few wood panels and some basic woodwork.
