Now, a Copenhagen law student is selling five seats to watch the execution.<\/p>\n<p>This is according to Politiken.dk. <\/p>\n<p>As of today, Wednesday, USD 1,100 is the top bid for a front-row ticket to see a man die. On the aptly-named auction website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.curtainfall.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Curtainfall.com<\/a>, law student and activist Martin Martensen-Larsen is auctioning off tickets to the macabre event. <\/p>\n<h2>People should see how their taxes are used<\/h2>\n<p>Martensen-Larsen will keep ten per cent of the profits for administration costs. But he is not in it for the money, he says.<\/p>\n<p>By \u2018selling death\u2019 in this way he wants to provoke a debate about why executions are usually closed to the public.<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbPeople should be able to see what they vote for, and what their taxes are being used for,\u00ab he says in an interview with Eb.dk.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlights the commercial interests involved in capital punishment. <\/p>\n<p>\u00bbThe entire prison system and the people who produce the lethal injections all make money on this type of punishment,\u00ab he says. <\/p>\n<h2>Money back guarantee <\/h2>\n<p>The date of the execution has not yet been set, but if the prisoner survives death-row, or dies early, buyers will get most of their money back. <\/p>\n<p>\u00bbIn case our client should be granted clemency, if his death occurs before execution or any other event that would prohibit the execution taking place, the buyer will pay an administration fee of 25 per cent of the bid,\u00ab according to the Curtainfall website. <\/p>\n<h2>Grave advertising<\/h2>\n<p>Previously, Martensen-Larsen has explored the idea of commercialising death with the project \u00bbWork in Peace\u00ab in 2009, where he sold advertising space on gravestones. <\/p>\n<p>A video company bought three month\u2019s advertising on Martensen-Larsen\u2019s own
