I am really damn bored.
ANyway, I have come up with these 2 things that are a paradox to me.

1. Have a baseball thrown 100 MPH right into your teeth while you are smiling, wide and open mouthed. from like 90 feet away.
no way at all to dodge.
2. Be completely strapped down to where you cant move at all and have a needle slowly push down into your eyes.

The former, mostly because I'll still be able to see and the pain would go away quickly because I would pass out.

3. Slide down a razor blade on your back shirtless into a pool of rubbing alcohol.

totally the baseball for two reasons:

#1 You would go into shock instanly and wouldn't feel much of anything, not so with the needle in the eyes
#2 Break out a few teeth, maybe break your jaw, you will heal and can get your teeth replaced, needle in the eye could make you blind and there is not much a doctor can do about that.

are you kidding me?

a bball at point blank range @ 100mph... i'm sure there is a good chance that it would crush your head, or, if you were just standing there, not having your head against anything, it would probably break your neck.

it isnt supposed to be that easy.

those teeth could end up shooting down your throat and killing you.

I think i'd go insane if I had to do either.

Why is this question even asked. The needles would hurt and you'd be blind forever, and the baseball would probably kill you. I wouldnt want either.

Assuming its in the whites of the eyes.... Needle in the eye, as long as it doesnt go too deep. Not many nerve endings in the whites of the eyes.

I'd rather be dead than blind myself

How many ballplayers have been beaned by a fastball? I know some woman was killed when struck by a foul ball a couple years ago.

Still...I'd take #1

But...this should have been a POLL!

Strangley, this thread is very similar to number 2.
