Would you be buried alive for 48hr for a million dollars? - eviltoast

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.

    Given people have died during these buried alive challenges, that will be a resounding no from me. There’s also a small chance that something happens to the people that bury you and you die slowly in the dark, never knowing what transpired and why you’re still there. Not worth the risk.

      That’s a horrifying thought. I recall an episode of some show where someone tried to escape prison by being put in a coffin with someone who died so that she could be dug up outside, but when she woke up and checked to see who she was buried with it was the guy who was supposed to dig her up.
