    Once your neck snaps, all neural activity dies, so your brain can no longer tell your heart to beat, and blood can no longer get to your brain. It's pretty instant if it's done right. It's when your neck DOESN'T snap that you ahve to worry about suffocation, because then it's just like choking someone.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Im pretty sure there are 2-3 states that still use hanging as a method of execution. Im not sure which tho.

    They did video tape this with a real camera from what I understand. Eventually it should surface as well.

    We would have the DVD released the following Tuesday for new DVD day. 1080p and DTS 6.1 in the good old American overdo it way!

    It was a bit disturbing watching him fall. As others have said, i'll take their word for it.
    No excuses!

    Watched part of it, but turned it off. Apparently I didn't miss anything. I can't watch stuff like that. The worst thing I ever watched was the Nick Berg beheading. I can't even tell you how horrible it felt watching something like that and knowing it's real. I will never forget that, and I will never forget what kind of evil it is we're fighting. I too felt pity for Saddam -- as much as the guy deserved every ounce of pain his people could inflict on him.

    WA & New Hampshire are two states that allows inmates to die by hanging. Apparently they get to choose between hanging and lethal injection.

    No pity here for Hussein. Can't figure out why any American would watch another American being beheaded by terrorists... Better video is on the net, but none that I find show the entire deal. Only the moments leading up to him being dropped. I'll give him this: He at least faced it like a man. He never looked scared. A sliver of justice nonetheless....

    The pity on my end comes from actually having a conscience. As much as I joked about him being executed -- I don't like it or relish in it. He needed to die, but watching any human die should never be easy, in my opinion. It's what separates the two cultures. The culture where human life is just ended with reckless abandon, and the culture in which we agonize over harming another human being in order to do what's right and just.

    As far as Nick Berg -- there's a hell of a lot of people in this country and around the world who need to watch that so they wake the eff up and recognize the kind of barbarians we are fighting. It made me incredibly angry, and I probably didn't need to see it. 9/11 has apparently become a distant memory to some, and they would benefit from it.

    In Delaware, they still have whipping post laws but they are so old and never used (something like the blue laws in PA) that they never removed them from the laws books.

    That Nick Berg beheading is burned into my memory cells. . . sometimes if I think about for more than a second or two, I feel sick. . . but those memories are the ones that streghten my resolve that we to back our government whose desire is to track down and kill every single terrorist, and I don't care if they are Islamo Facists or not. I'm a pretty forgiving man but I have no tolerance for the cowardice of terrorists.

    Shaky because he was trying to hide his cam from others I guess because it was not allowed...

    To McLeod:
    I would argue Hussein was better to be defined as a cruel dictator than a terrorist.

    To Cindy: Actually, I read somewhere that an execution costs the state more than keeping the guy just in prison until he dies. I don't know why this is, or if this statement is correct at all...
    Probably it becomes cheaper when the entire process is limited to 30 days grace period and then execution...

    Correct, execution is more expensive mostly due to the appeals process.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
