Not to split heirs, but "long after" in this case is ~12 seconds, IIRC — which is still gruesome AF, but worth being scientifically accurate, I feel. ✊🏼
I am very much in favor of splitting heirs.
All the way down. 🤌🏼
one account, dude had his name called and reacted 3 times.... thats pretty long aF!
wonder if they could still move their eyes and mouth for as long as there was oxygen left in the blood
in the historic account, the guys eyes were clearly moving in reaction to the doctor's voice
one other time I remember that someone described the persons head as stuck in a scream but no sound came out
Hol'up. What?! 😅🤮😅
There are accounts of severed heads being fully functional for seconds after the beheading, presumably because there is still blood getting to the brain for a very short period of time. Eyes moving, blinking, even talking.
It's pretty gruesome stuff, and I sure as hell don't want to watch a gore video to see it for myself.
