You could wait so many years that the coffin/structure or whatever is degradated enough so that you can escape.
Regarding the question of the thread, I have no one I can call a best friend. I have many friends and the like, but nothing as best. Maybe some are better than the others, that's all. And I do not think I'm the best friend for someone. So I guess the question doesn't apply.
I could try to stretch it, into thinking what I would do if I had a best friend, the problem is that I think I do not have the mind structure that qualifies to answer. Having no best friend, I do not know what it is, so it's a bit hard theorize about it.
The other point is the kiling. I guess it's the greatest problem here. Are you able to kill, is the first basic part of the question.
I think I am not able to kill a human being. I can't tell I would'nt be able regardless of the circumstances. Maybe I could be able if I'm incredibly pissed at someone, enough for loosing judgment/reason, but then I'd need something that enables me to kill.
Maybe if faced to a choice beetween my life and the life of someone else. Or the life of someone I hold dear and someone else etc...
But I think that I'm not able to. So I guess I do not qualify, again, for the question.
