New ‘Suicide Pod’ Unveiled, Has a Detachable Coffin

In the near future, people may be able to step inside of an all-inclusive suicide pod that not only gets the deadly job done but also provides the very capsule in which people can be buried.

According to LifeNews, Australian euthanasia activist Dr. Philip Nitschke, a.k.a. “Dr Death,” recently unveiled his 3D printed suicide capsule that comes with a coffin.

“The death pod, also referred to as a ‘glorified gas chamber’ was first envisioned in 2012,” reports the outlet. “It contains canisters of liquid nitrogen which is released when activated by the person inside the capsule within the pod, causing oxygen levels to plummet to very low levels and starving the individual of the air he or she needs, causing their death. The capsule is then detached from the pod and serves as a coffin for the occupant.”

The capsule was unveiled at the “Disrupting Death” workshop in Queensland, Australia, and promised people that it will kill them with “style and euphoria,” with Nitschke claiming that people will experience an “elegant almost euphoric” death when using the pod.

“The idea of using a machine to have absolute control really has been a long-term interest of mine,” he told Exit International. “So, a person can, with minimal involvement, get into the machine and press a button for a very peaceful, elegant almost-euphoric death.” (Read more from “New ‘Suicide Pod’ Unveiled, Has a Detachable Coffin” HERE)
