Cerebral hypoxia using something like nitrogen (but not CO2) is painless and doesn’t trigger panic.
You sure about that? Guy knows he’s about to be executed. He’s been sealed in a airtight chamber and read the warrant, given an opportunity for his last words. Then the N2 comes in, as he starts to feel light headed I’m pretty sure there’s a whole shit load of panic accompanying the experience.
