You create your own "death trap" mechanism by giving energy (attention) to it. There is nothing to defeat that you yourself do not create. Pay attention to the way you perceive the world and how you respond to it. No knowledge is certain. It is like Einstein said: "A problem cannot be solved by the same [state of] consciousness that created it." Everything about your existence is defined by you and no one else. Waking up is about realizing that there is no death trap, there is no heaven, and there is no hell, let alone eternal states of any of these.
The death of the physical body is necessary to maintain a healthy capacity of a physically-manifested spiritual occupancy of this planet for all species. Our vibrations will draw to us the realities and situations we need in order to spiritually evolve. We will all evolve in one way or another. We choose how we evolve by where we put our attention. Evolution is not a choice, it is a natural part of the process of being.
