Decapitated head alive after beheading!!

[xalthus]

Movie of recently decapitated iraqi's show a head being removed from the first individual. This head after being placed on its own body, proceeds to make an ugly face and sticks his tongue out at the captors...

1st beheading (alive head)
2nd beheading

Well a quick search on yahoo revealed that the head actually remains conscious a few seconds after being removed.
behead

When I went to search on yahoo to see if the head lives after the beheading, I came across this news link. Device shows promise for spinal cord injury

My last search came across a interesting read, where successful head transplants have been done to monkeys.
Head/body Transplant Somewhat interesting...

Putting this all together, I now realize the future of aesthetics and medicine. Complete body transplants for ur head. If ur body gets crushed, its cool. Just borrow another body.

Quiet interesting.

For some reason: this thread plus your nickname = a small bit of humor for me.

At least it shows the brutality of the regime that got pummeled out of power by the United States, even though we haven't finished them off, and this beheading and bombing crap will continue for awhile, you can see what these folks are all about and its not a pretty picture.

Unfortunately, this is the way the middle east has been for many, MANY years. Is it barbaric to us? Yes. Is it commonplace for them? Same answer

He was alive till the second they chopped his head off, you can hear him wheezing. But im pretty sure something like that would send you into shock so you dont feel anything.

Historical fact: France outlawed beheadings after a "scientific" study.

A scientist asked a man before he was beheaded to blink as many times as he could after he was decapitated.


He blinked 14 times in front of numerous spectators. From that day on, the guillitone was abolished.

Taken from http://www.metaphor.dk/guillotine/Pages/Guillot.html

Read this report from 1905. The report is written by Dr Beaurieux, who under perfect circumstances experimented with the head of Languille, guillotined at 5.30 a.m. on June 28th, 1905

" I consider it essential for you to know that Languille displayed an extraordinary sang-froid and even courage from the moment when he was told, that his last hour had come, until the moment when he walked firmly to the scaffold. It may well be, in fact, that the conditions for observation, and consequently the phenomena, differ greatly according to whether the condemned persons retain all their sang-froid and are fully in control of themselves, or whether they are in such state of physical and mental prostration that they have to be carried to the place of execution, and are already half-dead, and as though paralysed by the appalling anguish of the fatal instant.

"The head fell on the severed surface of the neck and I did not therefor have to take it up in my hands, as all the newspapers have vied with each other in repeating; I was not obliged even to touch it in order to set it upright. Chance served me well for the observation, which I wished to make.

"Here, then, is what I was able to note immediately after the decapitation: the eyelids and lips of the guillotined man worked in irregularly rhythmic contractions for about five or six seconds. This phenomenon has been remarked by all those finding themselves in the same conditions as myself for observing what happens after the severing of the neck...

"I waited for several seconds. The spasmodic movements ceased. The face relaxed, the lids half closed on the eyeballs, leaving only the white of the conjunctiva visible, exactly as in the dying whom we have occasion to see every day in the exercise of our profession, or as in those just dead. It was then that I called in a strong, sharp voice: "Languille!" I saw the eyelids slowly lift up, without any spasmodic contractions ? I insist advisedly on this peculiarity ? but with an even movement, quite distinct and normal, such as happens in everyday life, with people awakened or torn from their thoughts.
Next Languille's eyes very definitely fixed themselves on mine and the pupils focused themselves. I was not, then, dealing with the sort of vague dull look without any expression, that can be observed any day in dying people to whom one speaks: I was dealing with undeniably living eyes which were looking at me. "After several seconds, the eyelids closed again, slowly and evenly, and the head took on the same appearance as it had had before I called out.

"It was at that point that I called out again and, once more, without any spasm, slowly, the eyelids lifted and undeniably living eyes fixed themselves on mine with perhaps even more penetration than the first time. The there was a further closing of the eyelids, but now less complete. I attempted the effect of a third call; there was no further movement ? and the eyes took on the glazed look which they have in the dead.

"I have just recounted to you with rigorous exactness what I was able to observe. The whole thing had lasted twenty-five to thirty seconds.

Very true, you are able to see, hear, smell, and even comprehend everything for anywhere between 5-20 seconds after a beheading.

To me that is a nightmare though, surreal and something I would surely not want to experience.

[MGibson]

Imagine being beheaded, and then hearing the laughter and thinking of your family as the people laugh in the background and you KNOW you will never be able to do anything about it.

The people that do that to poor ignorant and simple people hopefully will pay a heavy price before they die. I can only hope karma is real and they suffer 20 fold what they've delved out.

[xclusive]

Interesting can kak_azn volunteer to be beheaded and if he is still trying to sell his domains we know it's true.

[pxxx]

I am not going to look at those videos.

[Indica]

Im just going to take your word for it.

[kowntafit]

I've watched videos like that before, not again.

[Rorschach]

that was fucking hardcore

Just imagine if you were one of Nick Bergs relatives and saw this. The action of hanging decapitated bodies by bridges was started by the English on Tower Bridge after they had been beheaded in the Tower of London. This was pre 1600. Thankfully we realised this was slightly barbaric and stopped.

[Vitasoy]

I remember seeing a pig getting decapitated and it was moving for minutes. Not a good sight.

[rickholio]

I'm starting to be annoyed by the hypocracy of this whole deal. Yes, beheaded people's heads live up to a minute after point of detachment. One minute of quickly diminishing awareness, but still awareness. This is ugly, and likely quite painful, and disturbing on a gutteral level because we don't witness it every day. People being hung likely experience similar 'detachment', with the added disadvantage that some level of autonomous nervous system function would keep the lungs and heart working to feed oxygen to the brain considerably longer than a pure 'draining'... assuming they were hung properly by spinal cord severance, and not left to 'dangle and strangle'.

By contrast, a person dying from an abdominal bullet wound can take hours or days to die, dependant on blood loss and infection levels. By all accounts of people who've experienced such wounds, little other pain ever before (or since, in the case of survivors) compares. Yet we see countless graphic depictions of such wounds daily, and hear first hand stories of people left to die under those conditions, and few people cringe and wail and gnash their teeth at the 'barbarians' leaving people to die with those injuries over a period of hours or days.

Don't delude yourself that anyone dying of hanging, shrapnel, or bullet wounds are somehow dying a cleaner, less painful, more honorable death. They are every bit as barbaric, only differing in the method of delivery.

fuck hadn't seen the pics where berg was found bad stuff
