Outrage as scientist wants 'do-it-yourself death pods' to be installed in UK city

A scientist is campaigning for Scotland to take a hi-tech approach to assisted suicide which involves using 3D printed 'do-it-yourself death pods'.

The capsules were invented by 'Dr Death' Philip Nitschke, and they enable users to be locked in an airtight chamber.

The chamber is then filled with nitrogen gas, making them unconscious in one minute and dead after ten minutes, reports the Scottish Daily Express.
