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.

    Yeah I’m just so damn tired all the time, I’d be okay. As long as I don’t eat beforehand, I can go a couple of days without pooping too, probably. It’s the dehydration that worries me, but with sleeping at least the first 24 hours straight I hope my bodily functions will be reduced enough that I’m alright after the 2nd day.

    My first day off after work I always sleep at least 12 hours, sometimes up to 18. I’ve slept 30+ with just breaks for food, water, and bathroom before (after a couple of 20 hour shifts).
