INJECTION OR INGESTIONA trickier proposition for faking death-but one that can be virtually foolproof-is to inject or ingest a class of beta-blockers that will slow down pulse to the point where you will appear dead. Metoprolol and atenolol, for example, commonly available beta blockers used to treat arrhythmias and other cardiac diseases, may slow the pulse enough to create the proper effect. On the riskier side is tetrodotoxin, a neurotoxin derived from puffer fish that is rumored to be a favorite of voodoo practitioners; it can give the subject the appearance of being near death or in a “zombie”-like state for days. If any of these approaches is used, it should be noted that they may result not only in the appearance of death but in actual death. This very real danger must be taken into account. This method should also involve an accomplice, since bringing the individual’s vitals back to a healthy state will require the administration of epinephrine to the heart, followed by CPR. Again: This method should be considered a last resort.
