how long does a human brain head stay active when removed from the neck, i.e. guillotine, homicide vest...Whatever...

Did bag-daddee see the K-9 coming his way, or the U.S. soldiers coming?

These suicide bombs often leave the head intact, essentially blowing the body apart while decapitating the head.

Legend has it you remain conscious for about 3 seconds after a decapitation.

"Baghdadi must have worn some ultra-super strength head-gear."

What reasons do you have for that opinion?

Even if the brain was "alive" after the blast, unconsciousness would have been immediate, I think.

Additional reporting says the SDF ‘spy’ we had on the inside stole a pair of Baghdadi’s dirty underwear and gave it to US forces. We had 100% positive DNA ID that he was there before the raid. We also had intel he was preparing to move to the Syrian town of Jarablus, which I believe is currently under Turkish control. No way he would be able to stay there, but he likely would have ‘disappeared’.

The old story is the executioner at the guillotine would pick up the head and show it to the body. At that point, the eyes would go close. Reportedly this was because the slice was so sharp, such as when you slice your finger with a very sharp knife and don’t realize it for a few seconds.

According to highly reputable Internet searches:

Once your heart has stopped, and you're clinically dead, you'll be well beyond noticing anything that's happening to your body. “After the heart stops beating, oxygen supply to the brain is cut off,” Claudia Hammond noted on BBC. “With no glucose store to rely on, nerve cells die within three to seven minutes.” So that really is it.

Said searches quickly mentioned stuff I didn't want to know and were stopped.

“Baghdadi must have worn some ultra-super strength head-gear. “

it’s pretty well known that detonating a suicide vest causes the head to pop off intact and shoot straight up in the air quite a distance ...
