Wow, the guillotine was more popular than I imagined.

It's supposedly the most humane method of execution.

wouldn't that rather be carbon monoxide poisoning?

Doesn't CO poisoning trigger the mechanisms against suffrocation?

[-] Womble@piefed.world 4 points 2 months ago

No, the body registers the buildup of CO2 as the trigger for the "oh shit I'm suffocating!" response. CO is such a dangerous gas, and you hear about people dying from it when things burn inefficiently, because it just makes you go dizzy and sleepy, then pass out and suffocate.
