The coffins are described as "slightly used", which is... distressing.
Being paid to lie down and sleep for a day and a bit sounds like our idea of heaven, so this really shouldn't be a problem.
However, doing that in a coffin is a slightly different vibe, and one theme park in America is running a competition to see who can stay in a two foot-by-nine foot wooden box for 30 hours.
Six Flags in St. Louis in Missouri are running The Coffin Challenge, which will have folks in their final resting place from 1pm on Saturday 13 October to 7pm on Sunday the next day.
Hopefully. Providing they don't, y'know, forget to let you out.
There are some parameters to the challenge: you must provide your own bedding for inside the coffin, but the theme park will provide all of the food and drinks you might need (and you must consume them all inside the coffin). Also, they'll let you out for six minutes every hour for a bathroom break.
They'll also charge your phone for you, so you can literally Netflix & Chill all by yourself in there.
So what do you get if you pass the challenge?
Well, a season pass for all of 2019, and $300.
Unless someone else also passes the challenge, in which case the winner of the money is chosen at random.
Oh, and you also get to keep the coffin! Which is one less thing to worry about, in the long run...
