A Rollercoaster Designed to Kill HumanelyBy Architecture / IO, 20 Apr 2011Comment Share Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on pinterest_shareIt’s a ride definitely not for the faint-hearted—a PhD candidate in Design Interactions at the Royal College of Art has designed a hypothetical rollercoaster meant to kill.Julijonas Urbonas created his coaster as a hypothetical euthanasia machine; it will, he claims, take lives as humanely and euphorically as possible.“Riding the coaster’s track, the rider is subjected to a series of intensive motion elements that induce various unique experiences: from euphoria to thrill, and from tunnel vision to loss of consciousness and, eventually, death,” he wrote on his website.The 500-meter structure is designed to kill its rider from cerebral hypoxia, or a lack of oxygen supply to the brain.Urbonas said he was inspired to create the rollercoaster by a quote from John Allen, former president of the Philadelphia Toboggan Company: “The ultimate rollercoaster is built when you send out 24 people and they all come back dead. This could be done, you know.”

I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.
It doesn't look long enough

At least 5 minutes to accomplish death from hypoxia, not just brain damage. 500 meters of track over 5 minutes is 100 m/minute or 3 mph. You can't get the proper g forces to create hypoxia at walking speed.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.
