Why not, that trip does leave some pretty cool ways to leave this world:

Boiling Blood or Falling to Earth and exploding upon impact (both in or outside the capsule)

Way better than just a normal horrific dying experience...you would be live on TV (except that 20 sec delay) and everyone would know your name.

You can go to Cheers and everyone will know your name. And you don't even have to be incinerated for the world to see.
