Up for it? Terrifying new exhibition is mad to let you die and be reborn

We're going to be honest here, the teacup ride is about as hardcore as we get when we decide to kick up our heels and spend the day at an amusement park.

So, we're not quite sure how we feel about a brand new exhibit which is giving people in Shanghai the opportunity to experience death, cremation and re-birth for a cool $68.

Open to the general public from today, the Samadhi Death Simulator gives people who are fascinated by the process of death the chance to experience it without, you know, actually dying.

Commenting on the attraction which will see users brought through an oven where they are cremated before remerging through a 'womb' chute, its founder Ding Rui said: "When we do not fully understand and take in death, saying goodbye is really quite a complicated and difficult task."

Only dying to give people (See, what we did there?) the chance to experience the process without having to deal with the paperwork and whatnot, Ding said: "As one approaches the moment just before they they face death, they don't have to think about these problems constantly."

And if dying and being reborn wasn't enough for you, you, ya lucky thing, can even bring home 'your last words' as a souvenir.

We're OK, thanks.
