The Wood Luck Bed was made for those who have a crippling fear of being crushed to death in their sleep. This earthquake-proof bed can protect its sleeping owners from up to 65 tonnes of pressure. The product was created by Japanese manufacturer Shinko Industries.

This bed is ideal for those who live in places prone to earthquakes. For example, the West Coast of the States is prone to these, so it is a good idea for people living in these areas to invest in some safety. It is also necessary to pair this design with other backup plans, like having access to fresh water and a supply of food. This, in combination with the bed could save some lives.
