I think the most painful thing I could think up would be if you were strapped down to a table, couldn't move your hands or feet, and someone was using a sand blaster to remove layer by layer your flesh, muscle all the way down to the bone until you evently died.

Man I can't think of anything else that would suck more than that.

LOL, I'd never do this to someone ever, but a co worker was talking about how his father was using a sandblaster today and it just tore off the flesh from his finger when he had a slip with it and made me think, "man that would be about the sh!ttest way possible to go".

Wouldn't a stab to the lower abdoman cause internal bleeding, which is a slow painful death? Same with the bullet...

Hmm...

My friends have always debated this, and i finnaly wanna make a poll.

It depends where you get shot or stabbed. I would rather get shot or stabbed in my chest, than in other parts of my body for example

You'd rather get shot in the chest than, say, the pinky of your foot?:confused:

If you're talking about swords, I would have to say getting stabbed is worse. If I had to chose between fighting a modern war with guns as opposed to an old war with swords, I couldn't imagine charging a group of people and fighting them one-on-one before finally having a sword shoved through my heart and out my back.

From my experiance working in ER's over the past 12 years...most of the time GSW to the abdomin appear to be sorta painfun, unless ya get unlucky enough to get hit in the spine. Most GSW victims seem to be in more pain than knife wound victims. Also, the shock from a powerful gun can trash alot of flesh from hydrostatic shock. That just looks painful. Alot of handgun wounds do not have alot of shock damage though, since they are often from small/weak calibers like 25ACP, .380, 9mm or 38 special.

With deep cuts, the nerves are often severed, and if the blade was sharp enough to cut deep, than the pain factor is lower than a cut with a dull knife, though the cut with the dull knife obviously wont be as deep. Cuts with serrated or dull knives are not generally as clean a cut, so they hurt more and take longer to heal and leave a worse scar.

In some ways you are better getting shot, as it generally does a through and through, leaving a small hole to be sewed up, even in the intestines, while a knife will leave big wounds that need to be sewed, meanwhile your blood is flowing out in generously. so you die from blleding out with knife wounds, what a crappy way to go..slowly losing consciusness, than death.

Ran a little long...sorry for the ramblin...
