    If I was going to be executed I would volunteer for the nitrogen method over anything that’s currently in use.

      When the electric chair was introduced it was marketed as painless too.

      Granted, we do have survivor accounts of nitrogen hypoxia so it’s a bit different.

      I think death by excessive explosion actually sounds both dope and as humane as it gets.

      Like, strap a dude with way too much TNT and let it rip. They’re guaranteed to not feel it, and explosives are relatively cheap.

      Plus, the witnesses get to be issued ponchos, and that’s always fun.

        Bonus, you could probably raise funds for the district by having a thing where people could make a donation to have them add even more TNT. It’s not like its going to make it any less or more fatal, but everyone likes an earth-shattering kaboom.

        Not even joking, look at people sponsoring signed missiles in Ukraine and you know there are guys who would be all in on this

        I don’t care how it’s marketed. I thought of nitrogen asphyxiation on my own a long time ago when I was contemplating the most reliable way to kill someone painlessly. (I am against the death penalty BTW, but I have no illusions about it stopping anytime soon.)
