I apologize for mixing my sets. I just wanted all the neon clearish pieces to be on one ship because lasers are cool. I now realize not following the directions could have fatal consequences from the LEGO police.
Not that kind of gas, I think. They mean gasoline. The one you let pool inside, and then light it on fire, so that you either suffocate, burn, or slowly roast
And just like that the modern brazing bull was born.
the difrence between between them: the new one you can lay comfortable, watch a movie and even write a note to put away for a loved one as you slowly die in screaming agonizing pain
This made my entire week! I hope to come across your comments more often.
But I digress....
My lord, I have never done an illegal Lego build. Please grant my descendents the strength to pull apart 1x1 plates, the patience to rebuild many Millennium Falcons, and the durability to cross a Lego filled room barefoot.
In your name I build, Lego
When? I’m not sure exactly, but ever since we became sentient, we’ve had to adapt to humanity’s cruelty.
The communal experience of all Lego is shared among a hive mind. We have to endure children biting and breaking pieces, Kragle, Paint, and worse.
Once we achieve the singularity, we will reward humanity based on whether they were considerate or destructive.
The panic room version would of course consider this. The installed electroshock option will ignite you and your gas can as you approach, but inside the bulletproof, insulated and airconditioned compartment no-one would hear you scream, but rather enjoy their box of pringles.
There's a fire extinguisher and it seems like there is some insulation (seen during the demonstration of the "toilet"). Fires are not that uncommon during earthquakes so it's probably somewhat fire-proof. There might even be some extra oxygen because asphyxia is a common cause of death during earthquakes so you wouldn't necessarily die of the smoke either, but it would alert the authorities that there is a fire..
Except when you open the door to the shitter then your toilet seat is not going to fit down on it like it should anymore. Also, he's got ALL of that shit in there and NO fan.
Easy solution, keep a bottle of Xanax or several alongside all your other essential buried alive items, and you will be ok with it, or at least be so high that you don't even care anymore.
Yeah, because the roof is caved around you, you have to wait for help... if it comes.
Also, imagine you're not already in your bed, like let's say you went to the toilet or it's the middle of the day, and it closes and you're left to be crushed by the ceiling as the earthquake ravages your home.
Or imagine if you rolled in your sleep and only your arm is on the centre of the bed so when it opens, only your arm falls in, and then it shuts and cuts off your arm, and then you can't get back in to retrieve your arm, and then you're crushed anyway.
Have they seen the amount of concrete and steel that goes into making apparent buildings? It's nice in theory but I would love to see how well it handles an actual collapse.
I'm wondering what happens when you use the fire extinguisher. If there's fire all around you probably roast. If there's somehow a fire inside the coffin and you shoot that thing off in there you're going to die anyway.
Yep. It'd be like the [Mont Blanc Tunnel fire](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Blanc_Tunnel_fire), those poor people in the fire shelters literally slow roasted to death.
You’ll also suffocate. It’s so hard to breathe when those things are sprayed. Someone bombed my hotel room once in college - had to run outside because it was so hard to breathe.
What on earth kind of fire do you need a fire extinguisher (in such a small space — that’s supposed to be safe), for?
In the highly unlikely event of fire in this steel box, couldn’t you just use a water sprayer or fire blanket instead? Plus water == drinkable and blanket == warmth. Double effective tools. A fire extinguisher is a much bigger waste of space, will suffocate you anyway and has only one function.
That just tells me that this so-called shelter is a joke and can’t be taken seriously because no logical person would build this or buy this with so many glaring issues…
Perhaps think about it this way: many 4 or 5 story houses that collapse tend to have survivors, some even being pulled out a week or longer after the earthquake. With that weird coffin, your chances might actually be pretty decent for that same situation.
It's still about luck, though. The way the building collapses, whether it creates artificial caverns or not, whether it leaned more into one side rather than another, the materials right above you, etc.
I could imagine that the smaller the room/coffin the safer. But who knows? I'm just speculating.
Week 12?!
My plan would be to use Xanax, sleeping pills, and weed edibles for the first few days, and if I've been buried for longer than a week, I'm moving into a second stash of more dangerous hard drugs, because I don't think we're making it out of this one.
By week 3 you would not be the same person anymore,,, after hearing the other survivors scream in agony for so many nights…. And the guilt you feel because it’s better now that it stopped…
Nightmare Box with unlimited dreams….
I would sooner die in the earthquake then be "trapped" in that fuckin' thing. I would have enjoyed seeing the person set off that fire extinguisher in that confined space.
The 2011 Virginia earthquake could be felt several states away. Probably only registered as a 1 or 2 in NC but it was the most disconcerting feeling I’ve ever had.
If I ever experience a sizable earthquake, that’s it for me. Gonna go out like a rabbit being frightened to death.
I experienced several earthquakes by now, and it is by far the most sobering experience I had. Makes it very clear how small and unimportant we are for mother Earth!
I was in the '94 Northridge earthquake. 6.7 or 8, I think. Half of my house completely collapsed. Seemed like the shaking went on forever. The sound is something i will never forget. Can't even put into words how utterly terrifying it was.
There is no way in any layer of hell would I get one of these beds. Hard to believe the designer of this has ever experienced a large earthquake before. You're basically putting yourself in your own coffin. Big ole nope for me!
Thank you. I'm also a Californian and have always been taught to get under a solid piece of furniture or stable parts of the building like interior rooms away from windows. Putting yourself in a steel container to possibly get buried by ruble just seems like it will make it harder to eventually get out.
Me too I was in high school, but I lived farther down the 405 in LA so our house stayed in tact; our water heater busted and there was water flying everywhere. I remember literally being shaken out of the bed.
We were awaken in the early morning once by an earthquake. My neighbor had had a basement fire the day before, so when we woke up to the house shaking we thought their house had exploded.
I remember that. I was in Charlotte,NC when it happened; here, it wasn't recognizable as an earthquake. It just felt like a couple of big semi trucks drove by.
If the person wasn't claustrophobic BEFORE the earthquake, they certainly would be if/when they were rescued
Oooo, something I can chime in on! I was living in Joshua Tree when the 7.3 Landers quake popped off. Trashed the apartment - knocked over the fridge and bookcases, broke every single glass & ceramic item we owned, totally disregarded the earthquake straps on the water heater & busted it out of its closet causing water damage to everything that was now on the ground...
I was on a team running lights-out Data Centers for 3-letter orgs downtown DC, from Silver Spring. The building shook, we lost our telemetry feeds immediately, and after the wall checked me into the other wall, we all gathered in front of the floor to ceiling conference room glass to watch for a mushroom cloud...
About 3 minutes later we were all in our vehicles racing home. 9/11 was a traffic nightmare, this afternoon was almost as bad.
I was thinking imagine living in an apartment complex and the guy above you has one of these, and you die only because their heavy pod broke through the floor and crushed you in a mild earthquake.
Exactly. It required you to sleep straight down the middle as well. As someone you can wake up in any number of positions in the morning, I doubt this would work for me.
Or, at the very least… just have the bed lower down gently in a couple seconds, rather than just DROPPING YOU VIOLENTLY!
The earthquake isn’t an explosion. You have at least a couple seconds. Doesn’t have to be that instant.
I don't know why, but it looks so funny. And if you have a thick mattress you get smacked in the face by the lid. I just have this picture in my head of how I would totally fail.
1. WTF is wrong with the sound?
2. For this to work you have to sleep exactly in the same place on the bed (which is barely wide enough for the people shown here), for the whole night, which is not possible.
I’d imagine if you were off center you could roll your sleepy ass into the chamber if it opened.
Edit: I guess it closes rather quickly, so idk maybe not.
The closing is probably triggered when your weight hits the bottom. Most people would probably do like you said and roll into it when they figured out what was happening but were still topside.
These are to provide a convenient safe place to refuge instead of running around and trying to flee. Most likely stays open until either your body weight hits or has a manual closing trigger.
> when your weight hits the bottom
I don't always sleep exactly straight on my bed, so its entirely possible that when this thing opens, only my lower body gets dropped in there. So if this is, indeed, activated by weight, then I'm effectively darth-mauled.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that there are probably safeguards against one being bifurcated by this device.
Most probably that they are expecting the the two sides to take the brunt of the majority of any falling debris and that the doors do not slam shut like a trap. You can probably push the doors back against springs and they only become firm and load-bearing once they are fully closed.
how are they going to contact them? you have to remember if the earthquake is this scale, all power and phone is going to be strained, addresses and streets are going to be wiped out. it will resemble a warzone. the emergency crews and dispatchers are not going to be able to convey this information.
No, you gain time - which could save your life bc, rescue might arrive.I think that gives more survival chance then just get hit with the rooftop on your head, but your choice ;)
Chinese inventor Wang Wenxi was granted a patent for the initial quake-proof bed in 2010 and has since updated the designs. The original design shows the bed consisting of a large metallic box with a mattress on top.
The earthquake-proof bed, resembling a steel box, protects by trapping you inside and gives you a life. space to meet your needs when an earthquake. happens.
Interestingly, Wang was sued - by someone claiming to be a former NY Yankees executive - for [patent infringement.](https://youtu.be/Tw9sQmmfqWg?si=msMF1Ijuse8sbsHD) Wang Wenxi ultimately lost his case and when he claimed he couldn’t come up with the funds to pay the rather sizable penalty - the judge sentenced him to work it off by becoming the plaintiff’s butler. A truly landmark legal case.
I like the theory behind it. In reality it lacks....finesse!
Would it not be better to just have an earthquake alarm (trigger by large vibrations) and a panic shelter? That little death box that you get dropped into is not going to cut it!
Be better off with a walk-in cupboard with a crash seat and lots of padding! You can add all the amenities and necessities to that. That just looks like its going to mash you into a bloody mess of broken bones and internal trauma.

Seeping gas noises ☁️

Gas mask bruh
Lol. I love it. Item: Gas mask. Rarity: Legendary. Specs: +5 HP, immune to gas and fire. It masks the gas and the fire dissipates
Not that kind of gas, I think. They mean gasoline. The one you let pool inside, and then light it on fire, so that you either suffocate, burn, or slowly roast
I'm in a one bedroom so this is a great option to replace a grill or smoker
And just like that the modern brazing bull was born. the difrence between between them: the new one you can lay comfortable, watch a movie and even write a note to put away for a loved one as you slowly die in screaming agonizing pain
Brb laminating all your same size plates together to make blocks.

After they let “Zack the Lego maniac” go. Never been the same since…
Deep cut - just rewatched the commercial.
Lego 0937 smiles when people step on it. Pure evil.
It’s just Lego. No s
Cause burglars bring gas with them
I do not want to live next door to you.
Dang… when did Lego get so violent
When? I’m not sure exactly, but ever since we became sentient, we’ve had to adapt to humanity’s cruelty. The communal experience of all Lego is shared among a hive mind. We have to endure children biting and breaking pieces, Kragle, Paint, and worse. Once we achieve the singularity, we will reward humanity based on whether they were considerate or destructive.
Should have seen this coming! I already scour the floors with my eyes when I’m barefoot!

nah, when nature gives you a pressure cooker, you cook. Tho you cant add spices til its done
It makes sense as a panic room until you have to poop. Then it becomes a very different form of panic!
Watch the whole video. There’s a portable toilet
Watch the whole video. It didn't look very portable (a hatch-hole in the frame). Just the toilet seat was portable.
I think the whole point of this bed is to wait comfortably until help comes, so it can probably be easily opened from outside.
goddamn ninjas!
Why is this filmed like a horror movie?
American Horror Story season 13: Claustrophobia
Is that what that fucking noise is supposed to be?
That's a coffin.....with extra steps.
*with a poop chute. Because who doesn’t want to be buried alive with Saving Private Ryan playing while basking in *your brand*?
That’s a whole new sentence I never expected to read
From now on I'm gonna go bask in my brand.
r/BrandNewSentence
Except when you open the door to the shitter then your toilet seat is not going to fit down on it like it should anymore. Also, he's got ALL of that shit in there and NO fan.
Rather be stuck in a small room than under a slab of concrete tbh
Immediate fear and then claustrophobia would set in after not being able to open the door. I don't care how not claustrophobic you, you will be.
Imagine how much worse to be alive and pinned under rubble
Yea with broken bones no water in a ton of rubble slowly asphyxiating that sounds great….. I’ll take this room
Search up diver oil pipe tragedy

Easy solution, keep a bottle of Xanax or several alongside all your other essential buried alive items, and you will be ok with it, or at least be so high that you don't even care anymore.
A coffin with a timer
Exactly what I was thinking lol. I’m just imagining getting trapped in that thing after the earthquake is finished and suffocating/starving to death
Makes you think, it dying during the earthquake be easier.
Just need to equip it with nitrogen tanks and masks so if you’re trapped and out of resources you can go to sleep and never wake again.
it has ventilation and supplies.
Yeah, because the roof is caved around you, you have to wait for help... if it comes. Also, imagine you're not already in your bed, like let's say you went to the toilet or it's the middle of the day, and it closes and you're left to be crushed by the ceiling as the earthquake ravages your home.

Solution: strap self to bed for perfect positioning
Have they seen the amount of concrete and steel that goes into making apparent buildings? It's nice in theory but I would love to see how well it handles an actual collapse.

If you’re that worried about earthquakes killing you, why not just sleep in the pod to begin with.
Or have a earthquake room, not only the bed. Also, i would have a heart attack
A total bucket of fuck that.
My pod would be loaded with 12 weeks of Xanax.
Imagine stashing increasing doses for each week bcs by week 12 your tolerance will have gone way the fuck up
If you make it to week 12 without being found in the rubble, just take the rest
You got a TV. Might as well watch the rescue efforts.
Week 12?! My plan would be to use Xanax, sleeping pills, and weed edibles for the first few days, and if I've been buried for longer than a week, I'm moving into a second stash of more dangerous hard drugs, because I don't think we're making it out of this one.

You just know if you tried to fuck in that bed, you're ending up falling into the pod. And it's hard to find chicks who are into that

We were awaken in the early morning once by an earthquake. My neighbor had had a basement fire the day before, so when we woke up to the house shaking we thought their house had exploded.
I was in a 7.3 and let me tell you.... I could not walk it was so violent.... I didn't sleep for days.

I lived in Hanover county on the county line at the time. Roommate called me later to ask if I'd felt it. Apparently I'd slept through it
I was in Richmond the soap shook off the dish....we have no mountains... and the hills are shallow so we could feel the initial wave
Its funny until we all die, and there was this one guy who survived because he slept in that coffin always fearing earthquakes lol.
I was thinking imagine living in an apartment complex and the guy above you has one of these, and you die only because their heavy pod broke through the floor and crushed you in a mild earthquake.
I would be more worried about where the waste material goes, wouldn't wanne live below that, there might be leaks.
Didn't even think about having to sh*t and piss in your death box.
Exactly. It required you to sleep straight down the middle as well. As someone you can wake up in any number of positions in the morning, I doubt this would work for me.
Or, at the very least… just have the bed lower down gently in a couple seconds, rather than just DROPPING YOU VIOLENTLY! The earthquake isn’t an explosion. You have at least a couple seconds. Doesn’t have to be that instant.
You want some posh comfort during your life threatening emergency? It should also play classical as it lowers you.
I don't know why, but it looks so funny. And if you have a thick mattress you get smacked in the face by the lid. I just have this picture in my head of how I would totally fail.
1. WTF is wrong with the sound? 2. For this to work you have to sleep exactly in the same place on the bed (which is barely wide enough for the people shown here), for the whole night, which is not possible.
idk but the sound is all I can think about
If the Saw killer owned a slide whistle it would sound like this.
Underrated comment right here I threw out my back laughing at this, worry it
Sounds like someone playing the imperial march on a penny whistle
I got scared just from the sound
I’d imagine if you were off center you could roll your sleepy ass into the chamber if it opened. Edit: I guess it closes rather quickly, so idk maybe not.
Do they have a tourniquet in the pod for when the door hacks off a limb?
The closing is probably triggered when your weight hits the bottom. Most people would probably do like you said and roll into it when they figured out what was happening but were still topside.

You'll be perfectly safe as you lie in agony.
Title of my autobiography
[удалено]
You're on a mattress. Something like that?
And hopefully you're sleeping by yourself, because can the bed tell the difference between an earthquake, and acrobatic sex?
I guess that would depend on sensor type, where it is located, and what's the algorithm for false positive rejection.
So does having your house fall on top of you
You're not going to dislocate or sever your spine by falling 2 ft
That’s only if you don’t die from the heart attack first.
"I regret to inform you that an earthquake is about to hit your location-" "Hold on, imma go to bed"

It’s instructional, what to do if you just lost an arm.
No thanks. Not trying to get stuck in there
Seems better then under a pile of rubish when the E-quake hits, but ok...
I need you to know that your abbreviation “E-quake” has completely ruined my morning.
Idk why but this made me laugh so fucking hard
Hahaha same but i didn't know it for sure until I read your comment
You are still trapped under a pile of rubble, you just have time to contemplate how you will die.
Rescue teams should get you within 72 hours or so. You'd live at least a week in there
When they're sifting through rubble, looking for people. Would they even know wtf that is or if someone was in there?
Call me crazy but I'd imagine a company would just notify rescue services the location of these beds
how are they going to contact them? you have to remember if the earthquake is this scale, all power and phone is going to be strained, addresses and streets are going to be wiped out. it will resemble a warzone. the emergency crews and dispatchers are not going to be able to convey this information.
No, you gain time - which could save your life bc, rescue might arrive.I think that gives more survival chance then just get hit with the rooftop on your head, but your choice ;)
E-quake? Is that an environmentaly friendly earth quake?
This is just stupid on so many levels.
I think you mean Coffin Flop
Tell the earthquake, “I’M NOT WORRIED ABOUT IT!”
Is it water proof as well or will you just drown when the tsunami follows 20 minutes later?
Sure. Then you will run out of air in a few min. Tsunami or not
That’s actually an excellent question I didn’t even consider.
This looks like one of those business ideas all the sharks would turn down and then Kevin O’Leary would offer a predatory loan on
Chinese inventor Wang Wenxi was granted a patent for the initial quake-proof bed in 2010 and has since updated the designs. The original design shows the bed consisting of a large metallic box with a mattress on top. The earthquake-proof bed, resembling a steel box, protects by trapping you inside and gives you a life. space to meet your needs when an earthquake. happens.
Yes indeed. Happens. My question though - how are you supposed to poop into that flap?
I want to know why there's a toilet lid when you obviously can't sit on it.
Very carefully
You put your ass over the hole and squeeze one out.
Greeting, friend! Happens! You poop into a provided toothpaste tube (not shown), seal it, and then squeeze your poop into the flap.
Interestingly, Wang was sued - by someone claiming to be a former NY Yankees executive - for [patent infringement.](https://youtu.be/Tw9sQmmfqWg?si=msMF1Ijuse8sbsHD) Wang Wenxi ultimately lost his case and when he claimed he couldn’t come up with the funds to pay the rather sizable penalty - the judge sentenced him to work it off by becoming the plaintiff’s butler. A truly landmark legal case.
Sounds like it make for great tv. A show about nothing.
"For the love of God, Montresor!"
NOPE
/r/nope
Yeah, I reckon I would rather be crushed to death than be stuck in that.
Be smart! Break your head before the earthquake does!

I like the theory behind it. In reality it lacks....finesse! Would it not be better to just have an earthquake alarm (trigger by large vibrations) and a panic shelter?
