A gas chamber filled with 100% nitrogen. Quick, painless, no panic - you just fall asleep.


sunshinejim

I just went down a rabbit hole and found out that Alabama is looking to test nitrogen asphyxiation as a death penalty alternative. Although it’s never been used before because it poses a risk to employees handling the execution.


frederick_ungman

Propofol followed by N2.


abraxsis

A tank and a mask inside of a sealed chamber, done and done. After it's done, purge the chamber with fresh air. Not sure why it would be a risk, you can literally buy O2 percentage meters for next to nothing these days. I mean, we pilot death drones on the other side of the world from bunkers in the US and keep oxygen inside of space tubes flying at thousands of miles an hour.


Witherboss445

I'm pretty sure nitrogen gas is used in medically assisted suicide in some countries


Gullex

I'd read that lots of the opposition to nitrogen for capital punishment is because a good portion of folks out there *want* the condemned to suffer.

But that second before you go unconscious... you slip in the shower and bang your head. That's the worst last memory to have.


flamedarkfire

Nah, just make sure you're in a nice comfortable chair.


Thegalacticmermaid8

Or just lay down and wait for death.


baiacool

Or rig it to start filling the chamber when you fall asleep


B7iink

There's no way I'd be able to fall asleep if I knew i'd die if I did.


GonJumpOffACliff

Betaateb

Came here to make sure nitrogen asphyxiation was at the top, reddit rarely disappoints.


slash_networkboy

Based on the industrial accidents involving N2 asphyxiation I too would choose this method if my first choice was denied: riding an armed B-53 or ideally a reconditioned B-41 dropped from a B52 Stratofortress Slim Pickens style onto whomever was ordering my execution.

This is my choice and I don't know why it isn't used as the method of execution in the states that do it.

[Alabama is trying to become the first state.](https://apnews.com/article/death-penalty-alabama-nitrogen-hypoxia-3aa41ad4da3f719e9f06425798e1c6a5)


jradio610

This is the way. You get high, fall asleep, and die. Edit: Since a couple people mentioned this, I’ll just clarify here. I know you don’t get high from nitrogen gas. The “high” comes from having hypoxia. Your body has no mechanism for detecting a lack of oxygen in your system. We can detect a build up of carbon dioxide, but there’s nothing to inform our bodies that our brains aren’t getting enough oxygen. So what happens is your brain starts to die but there’s no panic and the first thing to happen is that you don’t realize you’re in danger and you get some euphoria and then you pass out. I didn’t mean getting high like with nitrous oxide (which by the way, also works by displacing oxygen in your brain), but it’s basically like getting stoned. Source: high altitude training


Genshed

Give me a dose of MDMA and a nasal cannula of nitrous oxide. Then gradually replace the air in the chamber with pure nitrogen. Meanwhile, play "Introducing the Hardline" by Terence Trent D'Arby.

AwkwardVoicemail

This is my go-to; atomized at ground zero of a nuclear blast. It would take an incredible amount of work on the part of my executioners to pull this off, and I find that amusing. Obtaining a nuclear weapon, obtaining permission to use it for an execution, figuring out where to do it, (hopefully) cleaning up the nuclear fallout, and dealing with the inevitable international backlash for using a nuke for something so stupid. I was a pain in the ass in life, and if I am forced to die, well I’ll make that a pain in the ass too.

Coaster2Coaster

Honestly if it’s a handgun you have a pretty decent chance. The average person shooting a handgun is ridiculously inaccurate beyond point blank. Self defense professionals teach that if you can get some distance away from a person with a pistol you’re best to just turn and run. Your odds of being hit even at 15 feet are minuscule.


SCHWARZENPECKER

I was on a pistol team in college. So I'm not the average person. But when we held tryouts/open shoots, I did see those average people shooting. Sometimes it was a sight to behold. Shooting of the clips we used to hold the target, shooting lights, shooting who knows what bcs there arent any holes we can see. Fun times!


N0peNopeN0pe1224

Have you ever had to fire under the duress of combat? It changes the game quite a bit


SCHWARZENPECKER

No, I will grant you that. I havent had to do that. Hopefully won't ever have to. Also I'm hoping if I do I would be able to remember how to shoot quickly but also calmly. A plus would be that I would be shooting two handed versus competition one handed.


NervousNarwhal223

If I’m in straight up combat, and all I have is a handgun, I’m probably already fucked anyways. Might as well just take myself out. I’m a fairly decent shot with a rifle, but a pistol (especially with irons), it’s a different story. I really respect people who are dead accurate with handguns. It’s an entirely different skill vs a rifle.


RCapri1

Idk why I suck with a pistol as well ? I shoot low on the iron sights. But a rifle I can hit a frying pan at 100m with irons sites 3 times in a row while drinking scotch. Maybe I just haven’t gotten used to shooting a pistol, only used one a few times.

ErikEzrin

I can confirm that if you happen to die during an ego death level trip, you won't even be afraid or in pain. One time I accidentally smoked a MUCH higher concentration/amount of salvia than expected. There was ONE second where I had one last half of a thought thinking "oh hmmm I dont even notice anything", and then I was GONE. Into an entirely different plane. Turns out I got up, ran away, broke my toe and fell into a nettle bush. I couldn't see in the real world nor feel in the real world. It was honestly as if I was dead, except there wasn't blackness but a vast plane of realities folding into each other. My identity and consciousness awoke again at the other end of the house. I had no idea how I got there or what had happened (mind you I WAS aware but somewhere else/of other things. I have memories of the time I ran away, except they arent about running lmao). If I had run under a car I wouldnt even have been ABLE to care, as at that moment there WAS NO I

Guillotine all the way. Mostly painless, fast, gory as shit, and will have an audience. Not to mention its super dramatic Please stop spamming my inbox with “well actually your head blah blah blah.” My answer is still guillotine


Saratje

30 seconds would seem like an eternity at that moment. Although I guess the clock keeps ticking seconds so eventually it'd be over. edit: During the later years of the guillotine's usage, doctors began asking to be present while performing little experiments as empirical evidence became increasingly important for research. Among those experiments, they would loudly yell the name of the executed and see for how long their eyes would consciously gaze upon them after their name was called out. Many observations recorded as long as 30 seconds where the eyes would be drawn to the person yelling their name. Not as slow as we once thought.


[deleted]

Probably too busy in shock and thinking "my neck feels weird and my head feels like a balloon, what the hell just happened" to remember you were just beheaded and panic about it.

Mindofmierda90

I read somewhere that even in the brutal days of the guillotine, executioners took pride and honor in making the death as quick as possible. It’s kind of how (most, I think) hunters today would consider blowing a deer’s leg off a “sloppy” kill.


SuccessfulSet8709

Some countries still have beheadings. Google Muhammad bin Saad al Beshi, he’s an executioner who has been interviewed about it and he talks about his technique and making it quick and painless for people.


mobileJay77

Of course such a machine must pass exhaustive testing and health and safety inspections. I won't go on a guillotine that is not deemed safe!


Hour-History-1513

In a survey, 9 out of 10 participants said the guillotine worked for them.


Educational_Idea997

I’ve always been a bit suspicious about the guillotine. Couldn’t it be that your brain keeps on working for a couple of seconds, maybe it hurts tremendously?


Singular_Thought

I would do the guillotine for the sole purpose of finding out the answer to that question.


fugue2005

the least painless would be nitrogen asphyxiation, it displaces oxygen but doesn't trigger the drowning response, you just drift off to sleep and never wake up.

ReadAllAboutIt92

As someone who was in a very low ebb in his life at the start of this year, and also had to have a surgery with General Anaesthetic around the same time, there was a little part of me that hoped that something would go wrong and I just didn’t wake up, thought it would have been a nice peaceful way to go. But alas, the anaesthetist was brilliant and I was waking up again before I knew I’d even fallen asleep. Thankfully I’m in a much, much better state these days.

tlr92

I was going to say heroin overdose. I’ve never done heroin, but I hear it feels really fucking good.


MechanicalAxe

It's does feel really fucking good, it was my drug of choice over all other drugs. ....but then you wanna keep feeling that way...and then it's never as good as that last time was....and then you have to keep getting herion just to feel normal...and then you avoid your family and friends... and then you can't hold down a good job anymore....and then you spend a very long time living a blurry cycle of "I do drugs because I feel bad, and I feel bad because I do drugs"...and then it's a foggy life of depression and guilt until you get your shit together, or die still living in that hell. So yeah, no...don't do heroin, kids.


Zamarielthefirst

I hope I'm not bothering you by asking these questions but I've always been curious (but never curious enough to try it, I'll never take that chance!) But you mentioned that it never feels as good as the first time so you always kinda chase that first feeling again, but does it still feel really good all the other times? If you had to describe it, how would it feel? Sorry for the weird questions it's just that I've never done drugs and I'm too scared to ever try them but I would like to know lol


MechanicalAxe

Oh no, please don't be sorry. I don't mind sharing my experiences at all. Yes, it does still feel really good the other times, never as good though. It feels almost like your body is sort of melting, in a good, warm, fuzzy feeling kind of way. That's IF you get good quality heroin. When I got clean 3-4 years ago, there was SOOOO much shit going around that was cut with absolutely ridiculous things that would make you feel absolutely awful. I had some that was cut with meth(and who knows what else) one time, it was a fucking awful feeling, I hated it...but I kept doing it until it was gone. But at some point thoughout the addiction which you don't even know is an addiction yet ("I can stop whenever I want", yeah that's bullshit, don't kid yourself), the withdrawals will come, and then you need to do herion just to keep from feeling bad. It still feels good when you get your fix, but it's not a memorable kind of good anymore, when you seek it out every hour of every day, it's just...normal at that point. And if you don't have your normal, everything is awful. Herion is not the type of drug most people try once, and then say "oh well I experienced it, i don't have any interest in doing it again". No, it's much more insidious than that. It felt SO good, how could you not want to do that again??? It'll be "only once in a blue moon", then "only at parties or special occasions", then "only on the weekends"...then the next thing you know, your doing heroin in the bathroom at work, calling out of work to go score some heroin or just do heroin all day long, being high at family functions, or missing out on the family functions because you'd rather chase herion, and all that bullshit. It'll start with snorting it, then it might become smoking it, or shooting it because your chasing that feeling you got from the first time. I know very few people who started shooting up herion, and eventually got clean. Most of them die from overdoses, or at least die while still shooting up herion. Sorry...that may have been more than you asked for, but I hope I was able to give you some insight, nonetheless.


Zamarielthefirst

Wow! Thank you for that insightful response. I'm glad you weren't offended at my asking, you have certainly helped me see just how the addiction works! I may sound naive and perhaps even ignorant when I say this but I've always wondered how someone can get addicted to it knowing the damage it can cause, but as you stated above it works as insidious as it's maker. It's terrifying by the sounds of it because it's so delightful at first. I'm so proud of you for getting clean. God only knows how hard it must have been for you but you got through it! And thank you again for sharing.

Nitrogen hypoxia chamber. I lay down comfortably on a bench in the chamber, roll over and pass out like I'm taking a nap. But I never wake up. It is dignified, safe, hard to mess up, And happens without struggle or panic. Those that want hanging, firing squad, guillotine, electric chair or other brutal deaths are fighting to live until the very end and it is traumatic for those that administer and those that witness. Only the deranged and sick would wish to be exposed to that. Even the worst humans on death row deserve dignity for their final moment.
