I figure Friday is the perfect day to drag out the weird and wacky stuff – like this “earthquake-resistant” bed.

I’ve gotta say I dig the concept, and it might be really handy. But the question is… would you want to sleep in a pod?

I like bed tents and canopy beds as much as the next person, but unless I’m gonna retrofit my apartment to look like a space ship (like this guy did), I just don’t know about putting a pod in my bedroom. Thoughts?

P.S. I found this on a very cool WIRED list of weird survival gear. Check out the solar oven and inflatable sailboat as well!
