It’s likely they were already dead and that would account for the lack of blood

Wow. Don't get me started on conspiracy theories. I still don't believe that center fuel tank explosion crap. Although the scenery behind these videos does look a bit staged.

I think the scenery is staged primarily to keep their location from being identified. IIRC, we caught one batch of them early on because they hadn’t taken this precaution.

I'm not trying to propose a conspiracy theory. I believe he was beheaded but I think he was already shot or stabbed; killed in some fashion prior to that. If you've seen the video of the Berg or Armstrong beheadings, It takes more than one person. Even restrained, the victim will struggle quite a bit.

Working in the medical field, I've seen quite a few disturbing things. Nothing compares to those beheadings. They literally made me ill.
