Re: Iraq Street Beheading - Two Perspectives
Understood, not saying he didn't suffer... But physiologically, once the head is severed from the body, pain is non-existent.. Its physically impossible.. and it was cut off in a matter of seconds.... CLEAN Just sayin' in comparison to the hundreds of beheadings on this site, where they literally let the victim bleed out and drown/choke in their own blood.. While they watch the blood being inhaled in the tracheal opening like the Narco cartels do.. Or with a hack saw.. |

Re: Iraq Street Beheading - Two Perspectives
I know what you're saying, but there's no way to know for sure if a severed head can feel pain.. But as gruesome as it may be I think it's highly likely that one would feel pain. You only need a brain and a source of sensory input to feel pain. A severed head has both of these, as some of the spinal chord will extend from the brain stem, and pain signals originating from that area of the neck - the first second or third cervical vertebrae can be felt as coming from anywhere in the body. I actually have a C2 neck hernia, and have sometimes extreme pain in my hands, so I can imagine a blade chopping through that area could expose those raw nerve endings and cause horrendous pain. But yeah I agree with what you are saying with regards to it being a better, less painful beheading than many seen on here. |

Re: Iraq Street Beheading - Two Perspectives
I think there's a case to be made that when you're beheaded, if there's any brief moment of consciousness, that you may feel a full body sensation of maximum pain even though you're not even connected to it anymore. This was one of the cases being made as a reason to abolish the Guillotine, in fact. |

Re: Iraq Street Beheading - Two Perspectives
My hands sometimes hurt like I freshly smashed them with a hammer, even morphine doesn´t help on the real bad days, and that is phantom pain because it´s my neck that is fucked, when that shit started it changed my perspective on pain and what you need to feel pain. Before this shit with my neck I kinda thought fast decapitation was mostly painless, but I changed my mind now.
