does the eiectric chair hurt?

Question

in the other hand whoever has sat in that ghastly piece of furniture can tell us? what about the gas chamber, injection, hanging, garroting, guillotine, etc, give the method of YOUR execution.

Answer 1

Electric Chair: Probably one of the most painful ways of dying ever devised. Crucifixion might have hurt more, but only because it took longer to die that way.

Gas Chamber: Probably as unpleasant as drowning, or choking to death. I would just as soon avoid anything that messes with my lungs.

Hanging: completely painless if done properly. If the noose is just right, and the drop long enough, the medulla oblongata is severed cleanly, resulting in instantaneous physiological death. Unfortunately, if the noose isn't right, or if the drop isn't long enough, the victim dangles, chokes, coughs, and sputters for 20 minutes or so before dying. Also sounds unpleasant.

Garroting: Again with the lung trauma. This is probably also not fun.

Guillotine: Completely painless, 100% effective, but very very messy. Still, you would not feel a thing. Death comes so fast, you'd be gone before your head hit the ground.

I wouldn't mind getting nuked. I think that'd be a way to go out with a blast. Or overdosing on Viagra, Cocaine, Heroine and LSD all at the same time. It'd be quite a trip before your heart exploded. Then it would mostly just hurt a lot.

These are the kinds of thoughts that kept me out of the really good schools.

Answer 2

The human body is mostly water and conducts current readily. Applying a high current effectively cooks the body both inside and out..

Have you ever burned yourself? Bet it was sore. - unless it was a very high current, that was an example of superficial burning. The current passing through an individual in the electric chair is intended to 'cook' all internal organs simultaneously. It will also cause 70-100% blistering of the outer skin. Hopefully, the chances of survival are low.

The other methods you mention primarily involve starving the body of oxygen and can take some time to have effect.

These methods are still considered valid and humane ways of death in some countries.

I prefer to take my own sweet time to die...

Answer 3

it is just a killing machine

for my best execution method I would go with the Islamic way. although it might be savage for some of you but ask any biologist, and he will tell that once the head is cut off the executed will feel no pain.

every other method will cause a pain to the person being executed, and that what Islam don't legal for us to do during the execution for any one.

Answer 4

Only for a second, and then for all eternity.

Answer 5

i'm sure it hurts before you die. what kind of question is this?
