Gallium? It's solid at room temperature, but your own body heat will melt it, so you lie down on a solid block of metal and then slowly sink into a melting puddle in the middle of it. It's non-toxic and six times denser than water so you'd be really floaty on it too

Well that does make it quite regrettable for most people, I suppose

Hmm! Quite the investment vehicle!
