How long will a head remain conscious after being instantly decapitated (like by a guillotine)?

How long will a head remain conscious after being instantly decapitated (like by a guillotine)?

About 12 minutes.

Who dat OwO'

in rats they can still detect brain EEG 80 s after decapitation if the rats were anesthetized. 50 s if they were awake.

Well I mean like an Ann Boleyn situation

no more than a few seconds because of loss of blood/perfusion. You might have residual nerve function for a while like certain eye movements but the sudden blood loss knocks you out pretty fast.

A couple old stories suggest movement and responsive eye opening for maybe over 20 seconds or so and conceivably enough neurons could coherently function long enough to maintain some level of consciousness but likely dim and quick fading. Instant blod pressure crash to near zero.

look right in the camera like you want me inside you. please with sugar!

wtf

Why, she a test subject or something?

More of this QT 3.14

7 seconds

Human head? 10-30 seconds if awake 20-50 seconds if anesthetized.
It'll fall unconscious after 10ish seconds if awake though.

Why is it different?

Probably no panic response causing blood vessel constriction which would force the blood out of the head. Usually it'd force more oxygenated blood into the limbs for fight or flight.

Would you realise it had happened?
How long would you feel pain?

You'd instantly realize it.
Put it this way. You feel when you got a scuffed knee, right?
Well you'd definitely feel losing an arm.
Well the neck is often times bigger than your arm and had vastly more nerves and blood vessels in it.
Assuming a quick cut like a guillotine you wouldn't even have most of the chemicals needed to go into shock so you'd experience the entire thing until you lost conciousness.

If you put your dick in their heads throat hole would they feel it?

12 seconds
Blood in the brain can stay oxygenated for up to 12 seconds with no circulation

Probably but between panic and pain it wouldn't really register as a thing beyond more pain.
Again, think about a severed arm and poking a finger inbetween muscle bundles or something.

yours wouldn't make any sort of impact on anyone

this head looks at its body after its been severed

Original comment?

Don't kid yourself. No one would want to stay around you anyway. Much less if you have a fucking guillotine.

thats not a conscious function actually. the auto turning of the eyes with head rotation is actively itself inhibited in a vigilant brain. This suggests LOC, actually.

excuse me? what's the problem?

Should have been a girl

...

would be 1000% better if that was a girl

THERES GOLD IN THAT THERE COMMENT!
