Experience dying and reborn with Death Simulator (pics+vid)

Samadhi Death Simulator allows visitors to find out what death, cremation and rebirth feels like

Newsroom April 5 02:31

If you’ve ever wondered what dying is like, you can now get the answer thanks to a new attraction, the Death Simulator.

The Samadhi Death Simulator located in Shanghai, China, allows visitors to find out what death, cremation and rebirth feels like.

This unique attraction opened its door to the general public on April 4, allows visitors to be “killed off” by their peers, before they are “cremated” in an oven, and then “resurrected” – experiencing birth through a giant latex “womb” chute.

Players are given questions about a life-or-death scenario and then based on their answers they select who will die. The person chosen is transported on a slab into the crematory oven and then experiences birth through the latex womb chute, as Reuters reports.

The project was set to open in September 2014, but works stopped in October 2014 when “hardware was not up to expectations” and begun from scratch again in April 2015, after a redesign.

Visitors will have to pay about $68 in order to get a taste of death, while they can also write down their “final” reflections and their “last words before death” and take home them home as a souvenir.
