You know, a guillotine is really not a bad way to go. If a man had had enough...I can see this as a decent option. I imagine it's like turning the switch off instantly. Just make sure you got a sharp blade and a heavy weight.


Didn't a French scientist do some studies and determined the head remained alive for 20-30 seconds...I thought I read that somewhere

Yes. Actually it was 11 seconds. The “subject” (another scientist) agreed ahead (pun not intended) of time to the experiment and blinked his eyes for 11 seconds. Theory is he had enough existing blood remaining in his brain and that, unlike a gunshot to head, the guillotine caused no immediate brain damage.
