How long until that server melts down?

Please pardon me for reposting, but I feel compelled to repost. The left pic is what Saddam's men sent to this poor fellow in a gift basket, back in the day.

The reason the knot is so big is lateral force on the cervical vertabrae. This lateral force also adds shearing which severs the spinal cord close to the brain stem. No recovery.

Never heard of a "theatrical" that didn't involve a harness and a noose that was completely unconnected to any load-bearing part of the system...except maybe the darwin players.

It isn't over,
Stay alert,

I kept wishing it was little tighter

[Rudder]

In the long drop hanging (like this one) the broken neck is also accompanied by a separation of the spinal chord, at the C-1--C-4 level, from the brain, which results in immediate unconsciousness. From that moment on, asphyxiation finishes the victim.

The video's angle makes it appear as if Saddam is horizontal (i.e., on the ground) but, if you watch is closely over and over, you'll see he is still suspended by the rope around his neck.

He's dead.

[SouthTexas]

That didn't take long.

[Scutter]

Since the enlightened person is freed from any superstitions about some "God," they are free from having to worry about "rights." Only raw power counts and humans are just meat puppets for the powerful.

Look at this puppet on a string...

Yet this puppet believes in "God", and belongs to a religion that has killed many in the name of "God".

Forgive me for being morbid but does that fall break his neck or does he just suffocate?

[SolidWood]

I am fully aware that Saddam used to send body parts to relatives of his victims, but the picture on the left shows a victim of Zarqawis gang.

[angcat]

Ok I just read the above post and I have my answer!

[ClearBlueSky]

The Follower of Satan deserved to be the last one in his infamous 'shredder', turned on 'slow'. Then-disposal in a toilet, mixed with pork induced diarreah.

This video is not convincing. There is a matter of a few seconds then Saddam is on the ground, presumably dead. I can hold my breath way longer than the interval shown on this video.

If you want to view it in 16x9, 1080p with 5.1 DTS surround, you can hold your breath. From reports published, the execution was officially taped with a Sony HD cam. Not sure how many microphones they had on the set so I can't guarantee the sound.

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

Oops. Then let's just imagine Zarqawi was reenacting what Saddam did just to give us an idea.

[A knight without armor]

"POLKA DOT!"
"POLKA DOT!"
"POLKA DOT!"

Whooooooosh.

[Geronimo]

Good job and good riddance...I'll be interested in hearing the audio translation of this...

[Double Tap]

Agreed. While I'm 99.9% certain he is dead, this video is all but worthless in proof of that. It offers more questions than answers.

[highimpact]

Snapping the neck does not render a person unconscious, but it does paralyze them. Whether his neck is broken or not, he remained alive until his brain lacked enough oxygen to cause him to pass out, and then die. Hanging deaths are almost never the result of suffocation, unless something goes horribly wrong. Saddam remained alive and conscious for at least a few seconds after the rope went tight.

[Jo Nuvark]

Hi sweet angel. Are you "hanging" around trying to
stir up trouble too? LOL!!!

See Post #9 for an explanation of death by hanging.

Thanks!
