Part 1 of 5 - How to Kill a Human Being - BBC Horizon

[TheRacketBoss]

no wonder he was interested in execution, he's a dirty conservative...

[timlucifari666]

i would even bathe in their blood

[5kayonekiller]

@timlucifari666 youre not a killer. youre a psychopath.

[timlucifari666]

can you imagine what it must feel like being in that room? if i were the patient. i would fight back. the usual routine is the guards giving you a drugged drink. it would be normal, like a pepsi, or they would even go as far as drugging your water source. i would kill anyone who would try to kill me. normal human reactions are not against the law. i would make them suffer. how imperfect this world is...

[Metalmanmania357]

@tim lucifer 666 I agree. I imagine knowing my last breaths are imminent would fuel the human animal in us all, or at least in me. I think for most people the will to survive is a strong one indeed. I know, if it were me, they would have to get several people to drag me, and I would fight, kick, punch, snot, piss, spit, shit, you name it until they darted my ass like a Rhino on Nat Geo and drag my ass in there. lol

[mQtek]

Gunshot to the head? Why isn't that an option ffs, quick, cheap..?

[Metalmanmania357]

@mQtek Good point, one 22 cal. bullet, probably about 20 cents a pc. Quick, Cheap, always been my motto dude!

[metamaggot]

heroin overdose...pretty effective..

[metamaggot]

"humane" killing...killing is inhumane...

[goshogov]

Fuck all ignorant cowards that believe in the death penalty. They should be executed just because they believe in killing. "Humane" killing...how pathetic!

[Metalmanmania357]

@gosho gov I read of two thugs that did a home robbery that moved me. An 8 year old little girl had witnessed the execution of her Father and brother. Then she witnessed the brutal rape and murder of her mother. Then she endured her own rape and they had slit her throat as well but they did not slit her throat deep enough and she awoke to a horrific scene to say the least several hours later. Your saying this little girl should be put to death for believing in the death penalty......I disagree.

[EnuffSkater147]

@10rosegarden14 I agree, but the courts in America are fucking useless (if you have money, and are White, you have a fair trial) There have been many botched executions where innocent people have been cleared a couple of hours after being put down.

[10rosegarden14]

Let's face it. Rapists, child molesters, pedophiles, etc., don't deserve a humane death. Bastards deserve no less than to be set on fire alive.

[Metalmanmania357]

@10rosegarden14  Amen!

[SpencerIzMonster]

i think they should choose



[lpjk123]

McDonalds.

[jljdjf102]

whoa im the 39626 when you divide it it means 13

[staphy82]

just administer general anaesthesia and potassium chloride thereafter!

[Nyocurio]

fuck why care about the method just slice their throats or something

[rowe1750l]

Ya i guess i dont know the reason

[rowe1750l]

If its ok to take a life for a life, then why are the executioners alive, and the witnesses not tried as accessories to murder?

I guess for the same reason 80% of cops speed, and 1/4 of government officials smoke weed or other rec drugs.

[topbluffa1]

why not inject the neck with cocain ore something that will numb it then guillitone off their head whilst unconcious/asleep?

easy.

[BoredomPie]

@topbluffa1 You cant behead prisoners because there families would be able to see them afterwards.

[topbluffa1]

@BoredomPie

what do you mean

[BoredomPie]

@topbluffa1 You know how at funerals they leave the casket open? Well they couldn't do that if there head wasn't attached to there body.

[topbluffa1]

@BoredomPie

they could have a closed casket..

[CooCurrent]

@topbluffa1 I think his point is that, it doesn't matter whether they are criminals are not, they still have families that 'care' about them as such, and are entitled to having a chance to pay respects. Personally I don't think that anyone who is on death row deserves respect' hence the death sentence!- but sometimes when a criminal is in the family, they are somewhat blinded or in denial of why their family member is dying (for crimes). I have no experience so I don't know, just my thoughts!

[topbluffa1]

@CooCurrent

well if my family member was on death row i would rather they have a instant death (head chopped off) even if it looked nasty rather than them being injected with drugs that cause them to have heart attacks etc.

[CooCurrent]

@topbluffa1 I'd probably agree with you. I suppose this is what this whole documentary is about, a humane death. If it is 100% humane for the person dying, then the family can be sure also that they are in no pain, and the fore it can put them at 'ease'.

[jacob19adkins]

The best way to go is the firing squad because think about it. Would you rather have a 10 minute excruciating burning painful death or a quick painless shot to the head.

[vaggs003]

truth is that it would be better for the world if some people were to die (millions) but the problem is no person has the right to judge others...

[xomanowar42]

i think being frozen while sleeping would be the best way to go

[TheXRealXBrapp]

This seems like a really pointless documentary... thingy.

[Kozzy06]

Also, anybody notice how nearly all the prisoners were black? As always seems to be the case.

Huge surprise. Blacks and crime seem to mix very well.

[DigitalDesigner55]

@Kozzy06 Africa, Asia and other countries are populated by black people. Those countries are poor and the people have to steal so they can live. Stop saying stupid things idiot. And yes i am white

[brougy1]

One person was really Killed!!!!!!

[bahamaboy25]

Killing is wrong on both sides period

[thatVeteran]

they worry about killing convicted criminals,yet the have no problem killing a innocent child via abortions..they don't care or think a baby viable outside the womb feels pain.

[10mism]

sg 

[jtwidmer]

The most inhumane type of execution is when its done to an innocent person in society.

[TOLproductionation]

thumbs up if you got here by typing how to kill

[WingedAngel9]

@TOLproductionation that is exactly what i typed rofl

[mattyjutte]

Give a shot of morfine in the neck...... and then cut the head off.

PROBLEM SOLVED

[AtheismandSkepticism]

Portillo is a moron.

Humane execution is an oxymoron.

The more you know...

[wewereinthecorner]

@AtheismandSkepticism shutup you dick , what the fuck have you ever done ? atheist faggots think you fuckin know it all

[AtheismandSkepticism]

@wewereinthecorner What did I say that upset you so much?

[xEzB1995]

bullet straight between the eyes :) sorted

[irishgodfatherchris]

@xEzB1995 that doesn't always work you know

[animalcrackin]

This video is gay. Was searching kill humans and I get this trash. Were is the beef?

[cutieblaster]

Injecting an overdose of heroine or barbiturates will bring you to heaven, in 2 different kind of ways

[17zoomman]

gun shot to head most efficent and no pain

[samsteel128]

@17zoomman no. thats not true. not at all. im into anatomy. there is only no pain at ALL if it enters a ceretain section of the brain, and stays there. if theyre off by a FRACTION of a MILLINCH, then they go through excruciating pain, and eventually die from massive internal bleeding. firing squads are not humane in any sense WHATSOEVER. there is not true form of "humane" killing

[dheerajistheman]

murder is murder no matter what

[jackazz911]

i killed my dog after watching this

[NuculrSquirrel]

0:45 this

[parakmi1]

This makes no sense. But then again what in society does?

[darkrx777]

A GUNSHOT TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD IS HUMANE and fun at the same time.

[parakmi1]

@darkrx777 lol

[17mndrake]

Agreed! As the law Augustus passed once said " an eye for an eye" which means if someone murdered another, then they would have the same thing done to them if they were proven guilty.

[revelations539]

If a person murders another person in cold blood, a person killing an innocent for the sake of killing, then that person surrenders all of there humanity and there should be no humane execution for that person, if someone commits a horrible crime like that, it's only fair that they suffer as much as the innocent person whose life they ended

[DISPENSER4HIRE]

If convicted of intentionally murdering another person, you should be executed in the same manner you killed the other person. Sounds fair to me.

[AchmedCamel]

Of course there are H and inH ways of killing! Whether killing in itself can be seen as H is another Q. Don't argue before you're 18 and have read som philosofy. You'll just reveal your ignorence. For an inH way of killing just search for muslims beheading kuffers. Then you have the Q of whether murderers and rapists deserve to die as part of their punishment. Who cares if a rapist and killer suffers? How do you think their victim(s) felt? Rapists should feel pain. Prolonged excruciating pain!

[ZOMBIEAC101]

Murder and Killing people is never Humane......so why try to find humane ways?

[Superbustr]

Quote from old guy: But my basic attitude is so they suffer a little pain who cares.

What AN ASS !!

[jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i]

no type of execution is humane

[bongoritus]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i true, totally true

[Farqual0071]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i

Right. Thats the flaw of the idea of "human killing". Its killing. Killing is not humane.

[Acroniscopi]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i the two words "execution" and "humane" were both invented by humans.

[yadoa3]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i guillitene, sorry about spelling, I heard that was supossed to be humane

[samsteel128]

@yadoa3 it can be. a littlebit. they still go through lots of pain, because there is actually a lot of physics involved in making a guillotine. but, its not very humane. nothing really is

[almostskater3210]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i

I don't care. Execution can get dangerous people off this world forever and stop them from causing others harm. Prison can't.

[samsteel128]

@almostskater3210 REALLY? think about tis: a man shoots another man, and goes to the firing squad. ?????? arent you doing the same thing that that person did? it makes you NO BETTER to execute any person. regardless. "murder is murder no matter what"-Dheerajistheman. end of story

[almostskater3210]

@samsteel128

It's not about being "better" to me. It's just that a person has shown that they are unfit for society and cause harm to society so should be removed from society. It's not even about justice or punishment. I think that we spend wayyy too much money killing people (money is a huge concern for me when housing inmates; it's expensive, too expensive) so we should revert to cheaper methods.

[almostskater3210]

@samsteel128

(cont) And actually, when someone is murdered, they had no idea it was going to happen. Their life was stolen unexpectedly. A murderer knows full well the consequences of his actions. But like I said before, this doesnt really even matter to me.

[preemptivestrike20]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i And keeping someone in solitary confinement for the rest of their life is humane? It's torture. A bullet to the head is MUCH more humane. Idiot liberal.

[samsteel128]

@preemptivestrike20 NO ITS NOT. just imprision them. DONT KILL THEM. even wiht a bullet to the head they still go through EXCRUCIATING pain. read my comment on 17zooman.

[r2d23678]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i don't care

[Happyguy6666]

@r2d23678 bush reply much?

[Stavol2Dual]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i nitrogen asphyxiation, check that out homie

[Pandy2k]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i It´s sort of a oxymoron.

[Mrchickenwings1]

@jrt6j56eu5k6i6k68o7i shut the fuck up hippie. you must agree that some people need to get shot i the head. you know it. don't even say otherwise.

[jimkunz100]

@Mrchickenwings1 everyone has different opinions you should respect that

[Mrchickenwings1]

@jimkunz100 No I shouldn't, this is America, where I can say whatever the fuck I want, whenever I want. consequences be damned.This aint Nazi Germany where you can just black bag me and be on you're way.

[jimkunz100]

@Mrchickenwings1 you just contradicted yourself

[CooCurrent]

@Mrchickenwings1 You might be in America, but I'm not! Although that's besides the point. You can have your own opinions, but respecting others' opinions is a different matter. You can say what you want - but why should you disrespect other people and their views - as if they shouldn't say what they want? If you want people to take you seriously, then take others seriously - and wise up your attitude, my son.

[Mrchickenwings1]

@CooCurrent  TL,DR. SPOILER ALERT:I don't care.

[KrazyRMjumps]

can you request cocaine and a hooker for your last meal.. i like to eat both?

[cockywatchman1976]

The death penalty is wrong and inhumane. Only Manchester United supporters should be executed (electric chair would be my preference for these types)

[tillwalley]

alright...this is the type of video that should have millions of views.  god damn it.

[andinoble]

@tillwalley It is weird, I agree. But it´s been on Google Video for over 3 years, so I guess that´s where a lot of viewers are. Pity, if you look at where it has been watched it seems most popular in Poland and The Netherlands. Surely it should be compulsory in US schools (and other countries with the death penalty)?

[idlewild]

"One never imagined that idiots would be doing this."

[BeaconTeaser]

Deadliest Warriors should take notes on this.

[Sick666Morbid]

This kind of makes me not ever want to have to put my dog to sleep...

[Sick666Morbid]

This kind of makes me not ever want to have to put my dog to sleep...

[crazycatlady68]

"Do it as humane as possible"? Really? I hope those fuckers suffer as they die and the last moments of their victims suffering is the last thing they think of. Would u feel the same way if the person being executed had raped then murdered your child?

[ElleCM2]

@crazycatlady68

Execution is murder, on the death certificate it is listed as HOMICIDE = MURDER

[CrazyCanuck90]

@ElleCM2

Homicide only means killing another person. That doesn't mean murder.

[Kharmazov]

@CrazyCanuck90

According to Californias penal Murder falls under hominicide.

[BadMuffler]

@crazycatlady68 lots of people are wrongly accused and wrongly executed.

[4624tone]

hook dr chapman up, but skip 1st two drugs, what a dick

[RealFreak69]

bacii24 and nycwiseguy91 is just as bad as the people that needs to be executed. Wishing harm to another human is the lowest a person can get.

[thisusernameistaken2]

What's the problem with those barbiturate drugs they use give to animals? Or a helium gas mask? As far as I know, they're painless.. and they seem much simpler.

[AmyBeveridge]

It is excruciating pain. I'd to see someone inject hiim with potassium chloride and pavulon after the sodium thiopenthal potentially fails and see if he doesn't suffer when the potassium chloride burns his veins and causes a heart attack while he struggles to breathe due to respiratory depression, all the while being unable to call for help.

[Madams1977]

Bravo for a well thought out argument. I am so sick of both sides just recycling narrow minded and often invalid and hateful speech towards each other. I wish that more of us would look at both sides of this issue rather than just swear at each other.

[nevdelap]

Why can't they give them a general anesthetic, and then kill them?

[DeathLegion01]

It should be felt like a punishment and not a relief when they are given the death penalty so why do they bother looking for a "humane" way to kill a criminal?

[evildeathmonkey1]

@DeathLegion01 I guess because they feel it would be hypocritical to do the same thing for which the prisoner is convicted. But it is really a matter of opinion. My personal opinion is that there is no need for extra suffering, for me the point of the death penalty is that the convicted person can never return to society. Although I probably wouldn't say that if the guy just raped my sister.

[Gillyyorkie]

@DeathLegion01 I agree totally Punishment should be Punishment Not an easy way out

[Chuichupachichi]

@Gillyyorkie

Yours is not correct thinking. In matters of "crime & punishment", regarding the application of causing convicts to experience unpleasantness or a certain degree of sorrow, its correct only as a deterent whenever its intended to reintroduce the convict to society again

However, not whenever capital punishment is being applied. The idea is that the most severe punishment is already being applied, simply from taking the convict's life. It's already reasonably arguable whether or not

[Chuichupachichi]

capital punishment should ever be instituted. Adding suffering to what is already the most severe punishment, is definitely unacceptible. Simply being escorted to the site of one's execution is already reason enough for great emotional anguish

Many people make the mistake of considering only the convict and his horrendous crimes. Thus, causing them to feel that a painful execution is justified. However, the historic judicial philosophy of western civilization has been that an honorable society

[Chuichupachichi]

considers also itself, regarding the implications of that societies determinations. In other words, although the convict may have allowed himself to behave savagly inhumane, thereby, disgracefully dishonoring himself, the society will maintain honorable conduct & not reduce itself to the same substandard degree of humanity

[crazycatlady68]

@DeathLegion01 YESSSS!!!

[DeathLegion01]

There is no "Humane" way of executing a criminal, they all should suffer if they are granted the death penalty. I shouldnt be a "relief" to know that you are going to be executed for what they did so why should killing a criminal be done in a "humane" way?

[Selrise]

@bacii24 No matter what you say those "assholes" are people, and you shouldn't be cruel like that, isn't the fact that they are dead punishment enough for you. It's not right, I don't care what you say about what they did to their victims no one should have to suffer.

[usernametaken1932]

im confused as to why you dont want to inflict as much pain as possible. they didnt get death for stealing and icecream cone.

[monitorpolski]

Sick bastards

[wartext]

never realy been a fan of death lol but life for a life is a fair punishment.

[bacii24]

Death penalty should teach assholes not to do wrong. Give them pain.

[nycwiseguy91]

Well If the crime is bad enough they should suffer

[EllysaE]

Well, this is depressing ... still interesting though!

[akoljrkdsf]

yes very intresting but not depressing, killing is humane and natural

[EllysaE]

@akoljrkdsf ... I dunno how killing is humane but ... okk then.

[akoljrkdsf]

because humans do it, thats why its humane get my point?

[EllysaE]

@akoljrkdsf the definition isn't that. Killing humanely would be to kill without inflicting pain an doing so compassionately.

[akoljrkdsf]

@EllysaE well i get your point but you can never take anothers life compassionately

[EllysaE]

@akoljrkdsf If they want to be killed for a terminal illness, it could be compassionately. I dunno. We agree to disagree.
