The peaceful death you are talking about is from lack of oxygen, but when you're in an enclosed space, there is CO2 buildup, and when you get too much CO2 it makes your blood slightly more acidic, which makes you feel an intense urge to breathe and you'll die before running out of oxygen. That's a terrible way to die.
You would certainly be in a lot of discomfort and panic for a few minutes. Awful for sure.
