Thane krios to snap my neck but if not that than decapitation. i heard that lethal injection is actually very unpleasant and costly.

Humane execution- a paradox if there ever was one.

Most painless would be cyanide gas. kills in milliseconds.

guillotine would be bad because a human is still alive and conscious for up to 13 seconds after decapitation, a bullet to the head sucks b/c you might miss a vital spot (Look up Phineas Gage)

Saying 'humane execution' is an oxymoron. But if I had to choose, I'd go with good ol' death by snu snu.

How about being alive for 6 something seconds after your head is severed from your body?
It actually shouldn't hurt much if at all. Because your head is completely separated from your body that means that there is no way for it to recognize that you are in pain. So even if you live for a few seconds, you shouldn't feel anything. I could be wrong though.

For most humane though, I would say euthanasia would work best. You fall asleep and die, no pain at all, and no mess to clean up.

I think firing squad is the best way. You don't have to pay for random chemicals and if you hit the right spot you die instantly (heart or brain).

lethal injection, of course.

Quick and minimal mess.
There are arguments that it is actually quite painful if you overdose on whatever they give you. Remember: they don't die if you don't give them enough.

After watching that... hypoxia via inhaling inert gases. It would be a good method for euthanasia as well.

Because someone had to mention this.
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised...

Seriously though, death by snu snu - while fun for a while - would probably end up being anything but painless.

I make a thread about execution in a novel and I see threads about execution all day....hrmph. Ok I say, for humane, lethal injection. For inhumane, hang the bastard and whip him.

Thats the spirit~! =D

"Get this damn thing off my neck
I'm the head of the board now I'm bored of my head
Sharpen up the blade, boys
What are you waiting for?
Here's where we all get ahead!
Wipe that damn smile off your face
Or we'll lop it off clean with our new guillotine
Sharpen up the blade, boys
Bells are now tolling, soon heads will be rolling..."

The words I have a cunning plan comes to mind when you mention that...

OT: Death by sleeping pills.

I've heard it isn't painful.
Who told you this ... and how?

OT: I would want the guillotine, just to see what its like to live w/o a head for 6 seconds.

I say shoot them in the head when they least expect it. That's humane.
Exactly - expert assassination is the most humane form of execution.

I would also accept death by ninja.

But, you wouldn't feel any pain, since your brain would be detached from your body - it's because of the signals that your brain sends to the rest of your body that you feel anything in the first place.

One shot to the back of the head. That's the only way I would want to be executed. Waiting for my heart to stop by lethal injection would break me...I don't know if I'd stay sane for that 2 minute time period...
