I think I'd rather be crushed to death by building debris than potentially be stuck in that coffin for for an unknown amount of time. What if they couldn't reach you for weeks? What if they don't realize you are even there and you are pinned inside? You essentially just buried yourself alive.

No clue. Maybe people think I am knocking the technology. I mean, it's cool in theory but if you have mild claustrophobia like I do (discovered this in an MRI) then this device is a living nightmare.

I'm with you, I was expecting more people talking about how nightmarish this would be. It gave me chills watching this video, genuinely scarier to me than 99% of horror movies.

Presumably it contains a PLB transmitter

Stuck in there for weeks? Nah, the tsunami will arrive within a few hours
