i'm sure there's far worse ways to die than being without breath for 11 minutes ( it can't be that long by the way ), but i was watching Amistad the other day ( the inspiration for this thread ), and there was a scene where they threw the slaves overboard tied to each other with chains...and they showed them slowly going down in the deep dark water....and i just shuddered at the thought of slowly dissapearing in the dark,looking up at the diminishing light...grasping for air where there is none....it blew my mind....i know in the end, everyone is alone...but that just seemed like the loneliest way to die....
