Witnesses watched through a window at an Alabama prison as Kenneth Eugene Smith became the nation's first person to be put to death using nitrogen gas.
I thought of this as well, but it’s a safety issue. Amassing that amount of invisible gas next to a room full of spectators who presumably aren’t trained to detect hypoxia is a recipe for a disaster.
Skip the mask. Just exchange the air in the room with nitrogen. You don’t notice.

Rooms like those have oxygen sensors to make sure that people are alerted in case of a problem.
