“Kenneth Smith is set to be executed with NITROGEN by Alabama prison after killing preacher’s wife in 1988”

FAKE NEWS - Nitrogen is already 78% of the Earth’s atmosphere, far more than Carbon Dioxide, for example. Increasing it a bit is NOT going to kill anyone.

The key is that he’ll be getting *no* O2.

What they do is remove the oxygen from the air he's breathing (or similarly, have him breathe pure nitrogen).

It's not the nitrogen that kills him. It's simply the lack of oxygen.

Bob, back to high school chemistry and biology for you.

“Increasing it a bit is NOT going to kill anyone.”

Go ahead and try breathing 100% nitrogen for a few minutes. Report back to us.

They didn’t mention the 0% oxygen content.

< sigh >

DO NOT attempt to breathe pure nitrogen.

I repeat DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BREATHE PURE NITROGEN. IT WILL KILLYOU.

Not because nitrogen is poisonous ... it isn't.

Pure nitrogen will kill you because it contains no oxygen.

A bit? No, but carbon dioxide becomes toxic at 4%.

That is why the space station needs CO2 scrubbers.

LOL Here’s a little secret: If you replace the oxygen in the air with nitrogen, whatever is breathing that gas will die from lack of oxygen.

Remember the rule of threes: Three weeks without food, three days without water, three minutes without oxygen.

Nitrogen is one of the gases used in anaesthesia.

If it is all you are breathing you will die

Wow. You might want to do some research before making such incredibly stupid comments.

Ever hear of Nitrogen Narcosis and divers?

Breathing pure nitrogen without any oxygen will likely kill you within 5 minutes........

If they remove all the O2 I imagine it would do the trick.
