Insanity Is Only a Breath Away

Filed under: not funny

Few things in life are harder than losing a loved one. Few things in life are weirder than saving your loved one's breath in a bottle to hang around your neck or from your ears.

Everyone is born with it. A desire to be near the ones we care about most. And we find ways to remember them when they're away. A lock of hair. Letters. An old photo. And now there's BreathCapture™. Capture the breath of a loved one or friend and keep them close. Forever. Presumably.

BreathCapture is a patent-pending method and apparatus for collecting human breath as a keepsake display.

I'm sure you're asking yourself, "is this for real?". Yep, but if you are not convinced, maybe you should try their little test.

Not sure about BreathCapture™?

Try this test. Focus all your energy on visualizing your loved one's breath in this breath holder. Think of their breath in it. Visualize their breath in it. Feel their breath in it. It may take a minute or two.

Now think about what that person has left you.

Their breath of life. A living, breathing part of them.

Air in the form of human breath is no longer simply air. Breath is present when we laugh and cry, whisper and shout, sing and sigh. And once captured, it can be a powerful reminder of those we long to be around. In short, BreathCapture™ preserves not only the memory of someone, but who they are. So wherever you go, they'll always be close.

If love is in your heart, you will feel the closeness of your friends and loved ones with BreathCapture. And you can keep it that way forever.

I hope crazy isn't airborne . . .

"When Caesar exhaled, he released an enormous number of "breath" molecules, mostly nitrogen and carbon dioxide. It's a very, very big number says Dan Nocera, chemistry professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). By Nocera's calculation: .05 x 6 x 10 to the 23rd."

"... if you take a deep breath right now, at least one of the molecules entering your lungs literally came from Caesar's last breath."

So if you think about it, the sigh you made when thinking of your loved ones just put them inside you. And it's less expensive.
