Could you hide in a coffin?

No. I'm not claustrophobic but I think the idea of the coffin is too much for me. So, if I could choose some other place I would do anything besides a coffin.

Unless I am in a very deadly situation and hiding in the coffin is my only choice, if not, it’s a big no for me.

This is something that I don't even need to think about before I settle on an answer. My thought on this is a resounding negative answer, no.

I would not on a normal circumstance but if it is life threatening situation I would surely consider it. Though I pray not to be in such situation ever.

Reading through these comments, I can't help but think about how much I would love this book. I wonder what it felt like to hide in a coffin. LOL.

This is so cringe-worthy. I don't think I'll be willing to do that. Well, some situations might be out of our control, so the possibility of hiding in a coffin might not be totally ruled out.

Nope, definitely not. It might sound great to experience this while you're alive but I'll still take down the offer. It also makes me afraid of the dark.

In a life or death situation, I definitely could but there's no way I would hide in a coffin willingly. I'm super claustrophobic so there is absolutely no way.

The first answer that came to mind was "heck no", but to be honest no one truly knows what we're capable of when our lives are in danger. They say that our brain works in mysterious ways when we are put in extreme situations.

So I say never say never!

Unfortunately, I am right there with you on this one. If the coffin was open and I could fake dead, I could pull it off. If I had to be in a closed casket, especially if it was secured, I'd be in trouble. Fortunately, the book didn't go into much detail about the experience the two princesses had inside those boxes!

I am hopelessly claustrophobic and I would not even entertain the idea of hiding in a coffin. Of late I also tend to hear things going creak in the dark so combine that with a constricted space and it'd be better if you looked for me about a million miles away!! Just call me a wimp.

I think if we are talking about life and death, I'd hide in a coffin. I don't think coffins by default are creepy or uncomfortable. At its basic construction its a big box. And coffins don't have to contain a corpse. I dont find corpses to necessarily be creepy, though decay grosses me out. I think we should consider why coffins have a negative connotation.

Nothing would make me do such. Coffin? No I wouldn't no matter what the case might be.

I would consider it in a life or death circumstance, but I think I would choose it as a last option. The moment any nails were put in though, I would definitely panic, and that would probably blow my cover!
