Stick Bomb - Dead or unconsious?

Apart from those in the car crashes or on the receiving end of misguided rockets you mean ;)

I thought it might have been a comical effect, what with all the flowers, that a biological warfare agent would knock everyone out and leave them covered with blossoms. But then its a fairly black comedy piece, so they're probably dead.

My theory is that since Ethylene gas makes fruit ripen and flowers bloom that Ethylene is one of the primary Stink Bomb gas molecule structure parts.

Thiols (sulfur stink molecules) would be possible, but less probable given that the human Stink Bomb is producing the stench with abundant biological atoms and biological precursors while being immune to the stench and also not growing weaker (note he no longer is sneezing). The electrical discharges in the tunnel shown are hard to deduce though.

Ethylene Oxide at room temperature it is a flammable, carcinogenic, mutagenic, irritating, and anaesthetic gas with a misleadingly pleasant aroma. Which has the highest probability, but also explosively decomposes in flame. This creates a problem when the Stink Bomb has explosive missiles fired at him as he would immediately catch aflame and burn up. Ethylene oxide reacts with water to produce ethylene glycol. Imagine having your blood plasma changed to Ethylene Glycol (anti-freeze) by the human Stink Bomb.

So let's move onto a molecule that is very bio-abundant, already has precursor molecules, stinks badly, and could be mixed with an Ethylene molecule.

CADAVERINE.

If the Stink Bomb was internally creating large amounts of Ethylene Oxide and sweating out Cadaverine (mixing it on his skin at the cellular level), then the resulting toxic molecule would be heavier, less likely to catch flame or go boom, would ripen flowers, and kill people.

If the Stink Bomb was outgassing an extra Chlorine molecule with the Ethylene he could also be producing Vinyl Acetate with creates Polyvinyl Acetate (Wood Glue) or Vinyl Chloride or a less explosive version of Chloroethane. He could be producing many levels of all of these substances.

What can I say, I have a slight chemical fascination with the Stink Bomb story and it incites the imagination to figure out how a toxic human gas source could produce chemicals that would not immediately kill Patient Zero.

Judging by the tone of the entire thing, I was under the impression that the US Army deliberately mislead him, and bringing him directly into the Tokyo military command center was their way of killing off everyone who knew the truth (after all, it would be a pretty alarming to say the least to let the world know that America developed a bioweapon that killed tens of millions of innocent people when it got loose and was still planning on getting a hold of it) Letting the American liaison officer die was a necessary sacrifice. Presumably once everyone was dead they'd send their remaining NASA suits to pick him up again and ship him off to some Pacific island research facility for further study. You do see three fully functional and manned suits at the end after they capture him and it's clear that they are immune to his effects, so the only possible way he would have made his way into the Tokyo base without arousing any suspicion was if it was deliberate.
