Terrifying simulation shows what it's actually like to ride 'Euthanasia Coaster'

The Euthanasia Coaster is designed to take your life with 'elegance and euphoria'

A simulation shows what it's like to ride the infamous 'Euthanasia Coaster', with a step by step of what happens to your body leaving people terrified.

You may have heard of the 'euthanasia pod', but one designer decided to take things to the next level.

Julijonas Urbonas, from Lithuania, came up with a controversial ride in 2010 where no one who rides it will live to tell the tale.

At the time, the designer described it as a 'hypothetic death machine in the form of a roller coaster, engineered to humanely - with elegance and euphoria - take the life of a human being'

Those who embark on the ride are subjected to a series of loops, which get smaller and smaller as it progresses.

The ride creates and maintains a maximum force to the person riding, which will eventually lead to their death.

Up until recently we've only had diagrams and words to describe what exactly the ride could entail.

That was until a TikToker created a terrifying simulation that puts you in the front seat.

User @ridesnslides said: "The train would plummet over the side of the hill, hurtling down at a speed of 360kmh, close to its terminal velocity.

"After the 500-metre initial drop, the track flattens out and begins the first of seven inversions in a row. And this is the deadly part.

"It would take 60 seconds for the train to go through all seven of these inversions, and each inversion gets a gradually smaller and smaller diameter in order to maintain 10Gs of force to all the passengers during the entire 60-second experience."

Using Formula One cars as comparison, which only reach a G-force of above 6Gs when taking a bend at high speed, this ride can reach 10Gs.

Describing the effects of this, the video goes on: "You would gradually begin experiencing worsening cases of cerebral hypoxia, meaning your blood would rush to the lower parts of your body, and so your brain wouldn't be getting enough oxygen to survive.

"The first thing that you would notice is your vision greying out which would then gradually turn to tunnel vision.

"From there, you would begin experiencing a blackout and ultimately you would eventually lose consciousness and die."

Adding further details on the ride, Urbonas' website states: "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."
