That tilt shift effect on the opening photo is amazing!
Jesus, that'd be amazingly frustrating to not be able to control your body no matter how much you try.
Do you think in that situation you'd WANT to die? Or be left there as he has been, unable to communicate. As other said above thats a life worse than death.. or is it?
I believe it's not an effect, it's a rotating bed which relieves the pressure from the lungs.
That's a fate worse than death. It's beyond the scope of my imagination at least to try and picture how day to day life would be like that, it's similar to imagining the scale of the universe.
imagine if theyd turned the machines off on the guy

And the tilt is more to do with protecting the skin. The person who is in that picture is attached to a ventilator therefore the pressure that the ventilator is exerting keeps the lungs open.

You can see him fully strapped into the bed. It's to relieve pressure from the lungs to allow his blood to be oxygenated more easily.
Can't imagine the kind of total psychological damage this has done to him. Imagine how long it'll take to reintegrate into society..
