Alabama's new execution method: What is nitrogen hypoxia?

Alabama successfully executed Kenneth Smith, who spent decades on death row, using nitrogen hypoxia, a new method. This method involves forcing Smith to inhale pure nitrogen through a respirator mask, which increases the concentration of nitrogen in his body to lethal levels, depriving tissues and organs of oxygen. This execution method was used after the failed attempts of lethal injection.
