Thanks for posting the link. That was horrible. I keep trying to 'toughen up' since we are in this war on terror for the long haul, but watching things like this still bother me. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he's dead. When I looked at those beheading videos they really made me sick. I suppose the logical thing would be for me not to look at that kind of stuff, but we don't live in the same world we did before 9-11, and whether we like it or not, it's coming to America at some point in the future. I figured it would be better for me to get toughened up before it happens here. Those beheading videos really made me weak in the knees. LOL!

I'm thinking there was a weight in the knot, to knock him out. It was a huge noose; no doubt about it. Notice the big area of abrasion on his left cheek--probably caused by the rope hitting him as he hit bottom. There's quite a bit of blood too, apparently, on the rope. I saw how loosely they fit the noose around his neck and thought there might be problems, but the knot tightened right up at the end. If his neck hadn't been broken he would have succumbed to strangulation within a few seconds.

I'm glad he's gone, but may God have mercy on his soul.
Now a question: in a drop hanging like this is death instantaneous?
To: Mr Ramsbotham
from the stills I've seen, (I won't watch the video), it appears as though the knot was on the side of his neck which results in an instant broken neck..if it were in back, it's more strangulation..IMHO the executioner did him a favor with a "here you are, now you aren't" way of placing the knot..

It sounded to me as though toward the end the person with the cell camera was being admonished by someone. Like there was a scuffle between them.

Looks like it was taken with a camera phone.
Well, it did my heart good to see that SOB swing. For all the pain he caused his own people, and all the trouble he caused around the world and in this country. Some people just need killin', and he was one.

Well, here goes:
He's dead. That's good.

It's already starting on DU. They claim one of Saddam's doubles took the drop.

Amazing information. Thanks!
To: Mr Ramsbotham
The hangman's noose was designed to snap the neck as the person gets to the end of the rope. Not sure where but I'm pretty certain one could look it up. If I'm right, I thought it was invented in the USA as a more humane way of execution.
