I heard that one time when the Ghurkas were fighting the krauts in North Africa a kraut charged a ghurka with his bayonet. The Ghurka took a swipe at him with his khukhuri (sp?) knife, and the kraut said "you missed!"
The ghurkha said "shake your head" and then the kraut's head fell off.
Nice to see this gentleman keeping the tradition alive.

During the Falklands the Ghurkas went out each night and decapitated a few solders in their foxholes. Pretty soon the Argentine soldiers flat out refused to do outpost duty at night, and the Brits could move about at will in the dark.

I find that one a little hard to believe.

I’m pretty sure that if someone’s spinal cord is severed at the neck they drop like the proverbial sack of potatoes.
