That sounds like a horrible way to go.

“Debris field” implies an implosion. Which means death was almost instantaneous. So really not such a horrible way to go.

The alternative is what would have been HORRIBLE. Sitting cross-legged for 3 days with no toilet all while gradually running out of oxygen. That would have been unimaginably horrible.

They why you carry a knife or wear a belt in this situations, so you can check yourself out if need be.

Yup.

Yup. And add in, existing in total darkness while freezing cold seeps the heat from your bones.

Sounds horrible to me.

I wonder if they did indeed sit and wait for a while, and then they decided to implode.

[matt04]

Yep. However, IIRC, they did have a toilet. However, I would rather be instantly crushed vs possibly have to sit it pitch black and freezing cold waiting to die.

Doesn’t help much but they did, indeed, have a terlet. It was at the rear behind a screen-—for privacy, of course.
