    Beheaded American: how long was he alive after they cut his head off?

    Just saw the video....he's obviously alive when the guy was holding his head up, you can see him mouthing something and moving his eyes ! !

    How long does it take to die when one gets beheaded? Till the brain runs out of oxygen, (10 minutes, 5 minutes, 3 minutes?)

                              During the times that the French used the guillotine, they said that people would grab the head as soon as it fell in the basket and show the victim their body . . . . I don't know if you remember the movie Wolfen. . . there was a scene where a werewolf decapitated this guy and as his head rolled down the street he watched himself shooting a shotgun. Supposedly, that is how is would happen.

                              I thought the guy was making noise for quite a while too. . . . maybe the sound was not synched with the video

                                  The current medical consensus is that life does survive, for a period of roughly thirteen seconds, varying slightly depending on the victim's build, health and the immediate circumstances of the decapitation. The simple act of removing a head from a body is not what kills the brain, rather, it is the lack of oxygen and other important chemicals provided in the bloodstream. To quote Dr. Ron Wright "The 13 seconds is the amount of high energy phosphates that the cytochromes in the brain have to keep going without new oxygen and glucose" The precise post-execution lifespan will depend on how much oxygen, and other chemicals, were in the brain at the point of decapitation; however, eyes could certainly move and blink.

                                          In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                                                  That was a pretty brutal video but it's something everyone should watch ESPECIALLY if they still think going to Iraq was a good idea and are even THINKING of voting for Bush. This is the real world and people need to see it for what it is, not for what the sterilized media lets us see.

                                                                                                                  And then your soul after that sees it all too but there is no more physical pain sensation, just your mind now having to unexpectingly come to terms with the fact you are still able to think without having a body anymore.
                                                                                                                  Is consciousness a function of our brain, or is it independent of our brain? That't the question. There is some evidence to suggest that it is.

                                                                                                                                                  The conclusion I've come to is no, consciousness is not a function of our brain. It is a function of our soul. However, while connected to a physical body, the consciousness becomes tied into the physical sensations therein.

                                                                                                                                                  Its much easier to explain the vast depth and abilities of our minds if you look at it with this broader perspective.

                                                                                                                                                  Memory is one of the clues that leads me to believe its not actually stored within the physical body, but offsite in the realms and dimensions where souls operate. Just look at a human brain. I can't accept from a visual analysis standpoint that all of our knowledge, reasoning, memory, creativity, etc. can all be coming just from that blob. No way.

                                                                                                                                                                  Back when women were still being beheaded for being witches and all that shit, a "doctor" asked a woman to keep blinking her eyes for as long as she was alive after they diced her head off.
                                                                                                                                                                  She blinked for 30 seconds and then stopped. The doctor said her name, she opened her eyes, and looked right at him, and then died.

                                                                                                                                                                                      The conclusion I've come to is no, consciousness is not a function of our brain. It is a function of our soul. However, while connected to a physical body, the consciousness becomes tied into the physical sensations therein.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Its much easier to explain the vast depth and abilities of our minds if you look at it with this broader perspective.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Memory is one of the clues that leads me to believe its not actually stored within the physical body, but offsite in the realms and dimensions where souls operate. Just look at a human brain. I can't accept from a visual analysis standpoint that all of our knowledge, reasoning, memory, creativity, etc. can all be coming just from that blob. No way.

                                                                                                                                                                                      They can fire up random memories by stimulating synapses in the brain.. memories are stored in the brain. Thats pretty much all there is to it.
                                                                                                                                                                                      Consciousness is tied directly to the brain... as is memory, personality, knowledge, creativity which are all altered by damage to the brain. If it wasn't, someone with a gradually increasing brain disorder like Alzheimer's Disease wouldn't slowly lose their personality memories etc.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Don't underestimate that blob, don't judge a brain by it's cover, we will no doubt not fully understand it for centuries.

Thats pretty much all there is to it.

If it wasn't, someone with a gradually increasing brain disorder like Alzheimer's Disease wouldn't slowly lose their personality memories etc.

This is the real world and people need to see it for what it is, not for what the sterilized media lets us see.

These are real people, and if you are sending them over there to do your bidding you should be aware of their plight. I didn't watch this video, but I have seen the other morbid ones before it, but at the same time I don't support the war in any event.

If it wasn't, someone with a gradually increasing brain disorder like Alzheimer's Disease wouldn't slowly lose their personality memories etc.

The brain could very well be that basic gateway.
