New fear unlocked. That is an absolutely horrible way to die.

Is this a locking fridge situation, or a too much weight situation?

If the prior we need to have a talk, if the latter it's a tragedy but only preventable by the practice of the user

Weight. One of the pneumatic pistons was bad. And given the position she was probably in she didn't have the leverage to prop it open.

Neither really. The mechanism intended to hold the storage compartment open failed, and the bed was too heavy for the woman to lift off herself in the limited time before she lost consciousness and then asphyxiated.

Looks at the picture: oh wow what a great idea to save storage space. Reads the title.. oh. Oh no!!

Heh. I literally just bought one of these for my office / spare bedroom.
I hope it doesn’t eat me!

Leave a bag of chips and some water inside so you may last longer.
