You are buried in a coffin 6ft deep, with no light or cell phone. There is only a small tube connected to the coffin from outside that allows you to breathe (edit: you can breathe with no difficulty). After 48 hours, you are dug up and given 1 million dollars. Do you do it?

Edit: No food and water, no diaper, and no contact with the outside world. Once buried, they leave for 48hr and come back to dig you up. The coffin is only wide enough for you to lay on your back (no rolling around), and the inside is wood and not particularly comfortable. The only items you’re allowed to bring with you are life sustaining medication (e.g. an asthma inhaler). No knocking yourself out with pills or anxiety meds. The money is a briefcase full of cash.

    I currently don’t have a problem with small spaces but I think this would give it to me. I was okay up until the part where I can’t roll around. I was imagining it and that would be so uncomfortable to stay in the same position for 48 hours. I think I’ll pass. I don’t need a million that badly and I don’t want PTSD.

      Yeah, at first I was like sure I can just sit still/sleep for 2 days but then I remembered how I start to panic a little bit when I have trouble taking a shirt off sometimes and that only takes a second to fix.
