Taking a ride on the sui-slide would be the last thing on my bucket list

I too played rollercoaster tycoon where every coaster was a euthanasia coaster!

Now this is whimsy.

John Allen, who had been the president of the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, inspired Urbonas with his description of the "ultimate" roller coaster as one that "sends out 24 people and they all come back dead".[4]

The ride's seven inversions would inflict 10 g (g-force) on its passengers for 60 seconds, causing g-force related symptoms starting with greyout through tunnel vision to syncope, and eventually g-LOC (g-force induced loss of consciousness) and death.

But

According to the National Institutes of Health, the human brain can survive without oxygen for up to four or five minutes. During this time, the brain is not capable of functioning at anything near its normal capacity. Extensive and irreversible brain damage may occur through cell death if oxygen levels are not restored quickly enough after this period.

What am I missing?

Why would it not be easier to just seal off a room, and cycle the oxygen out until it's pure nitrogen gas. The people would pass out quickly, experience no real physical pain and just leave them in their for 30 minutes (well more than needed)

If there was an assisted suicide way to go, id basically just ask for the mask at the orthodontist then ease off into never worrying again.

Honestly, I’m surprised this isn’t americas death penalty method of choice.

This is a great idea, as long as everyone agrees to wearing really effective adult diapers. Otherwise it will be a water ride.

I wonder if it would hold to scrutiny in OpenRCT2.

Oh hey, the Mrs. Davis death machine actually has science behind it

How is there not a movie about this thing lol

I can hardly think of worse ways to die, having all the time in the world to think it through on the way up listening to the "click-clack-click-clack" of the train on the rails, and then going over the falls... Maybe drowning and burning but that's about what I can come up with.

That was in a good book I read.

This really kind of creeped me out when I first read about it.

...but why

I'd rather be shot from a cannon.

all passengers are given the choice to exit the train if they wish to do so. If they do not, they will have some time to say their last words.

All passengers are required to press a button to continue the ride, which then takes the cars down a 500 m (1,600 ft) drop, propelling the train at speeds up to 360 kilometres per hour 

...

 Subsequent inversions or a second run of the rollercoaster would serve as insurance against unintentional survival of more robust passengers...

That's contradictory

I mean, it would work fine without all the loops. Just let the drop continue to the ground without leveling off.

What would the pay be for the park employees who clear the bodies?
