This is so tiresome. I figured out long ago, before I was a teenager, that the simplest, surest, least dramatic execution method would be to put the convicted in an altitude chamber and slowly reduce the pressure. The onset would be anoxia, and then unconsciousness, and then death. End of story. Way too much experience with this environment for there to be any uncertainty.
This, of course, was after I had conceived the idea of stuffing them in a barrel of dynamite and setting it off. It seemed too melodramatic for my adolescent mind.
Expensive altitude chamber not required. Just pump* the chamber full of nitrogen. Convict loses consciousness entirely without pain or panic and then dies.
Edit: actual pump not required. Simply open the valve of the pressurised cylinder.

Username pretty much checks out.

Just a bag sealed around the neck pumped with nitrogen will do.
Quite so. Keep the cost down.
