Fyi, death by guillotine is actually incredibly ethical and humane.
Infact, in modern research, rats that are used in research and then killed are done so via a guillotine.
A friend was a pharmacologist researcher and told me that they gave them a little ketamine so they were out of it then cut their heads off. It's quick. They die within a few seconds.
Contrary to popular belief. Breaking the neck or even cutting it through does not result in instant death. Only paralysis. Though severed head is faster death. (Fastest death is obliteration of brain stem).
Many of the nerves that control the face actually run down into the neck and enter the spine there. So cutting off the head, at the base of the skull, also paralyzes the face.
It's sort of how people think that since fish can't scream they don't feel pain. That's stupid.
Just cause the head can't scream, Don't mean it's dead. I suspect that's why so many think breaking someone's neck or cutting off their head is "instant". It's definitely "certain death" but it's not instant.
It takes a little bit of time for oxygen to be deprived from the brain enough to cause unconscious and then death.
Breaking the neck or severing the head isn't immediate death. Someone with a broken neck (even if it causes face nerves to be severed) may stay alive/conscience up to a minute or two. Just paralyzed. Knowing they can't breathe. Knowing death is coming.
Terrifying.
So the gallows it is for the traitors.
I think we can agree only some of them deserve the guillotine.
