Silos, manure pits, indoor compost, waste treatment plants, sewers, and any place organic stuff is decomposing can do this  And it doesn't have to include hydrogen sulfide, although this is a gas that can do it effectively.   It is usually a combination of gases, none of which are oxygen.

Very, very sad about the Russian family.  We had a similar incident in the 
Shenandoah Valley back in 2007, where several members of a family were overcome 
by hydrogen sulfide from a manure pit.  I have to wonder if H2S might also have 
been the deadly gas in this tragedy.
