    UPDATE ON AUTOPSY
    Kenneth Eugene Smith’s autopsy is not available right now, but I was told to check back. Hopefully when all investigations are complete of his execution, I will be able to obtain it. 🤞

    Glad I found this channel! The macabre fascination with the limits of human experience, the exploration of the feeling, empathic side as opposed to just facts. Asking the question, "What if that were me?", as opposed to reading numbers with a completely detached point of view. Reminds me of why I became so interested in WW1, especially Dan Carlin's telling of it.
    There is a very specific itch that we here seem to share. A form of honesty that is often shied from.

    I passed out once from helium. I was a young teenager, doing the squeaky voice thing. I had taken multiple HUGE deep breaths from a huge balloon to see how squeaky my voice would get. I was utterly unconscious, completely oblivious to all sensations.
    If I had been wearing a helium mask, I would have died quickly knowing nothing.
    Thankfully I was still breathing and came to my senses fairly quickly.
    I don't know the difference between what happened to me and what might have happened if this had been nitrogen.

      Anytime oxygen gets replaced by anything or even a lack of oxygen in your blood can cause you to get buzzed out, high, or black out whatever you want to call it. I went to the pikes peak hill climb one year while I had pneumonia (didn't know until I got back to Georgia) and I blacked out walking around at the top. I never passed out but I blacked out. All I remember was running to the rental to get a camera, being out of breath and coming to inside the station eating a donut and evidently I told a lady where I was from my name, age and it was my first time being at 14,000 ft elevation. That happened just from the lack of oxygen in my blood going to my brain. Just the same way it did you.

    • @halcyonzenith4411
      @halcyonzenith4411 6 дней назад

      Nitrogen and helium are both inert noble gases; the mechanism by which they cause unconsciousness and death would be identical. The gas itself doesn’t cause death but moreover the lack of oxygen, however, because the body cannot distinguish inert gas from oxygen, there is no survival response, unlike with the accumulation of carbon dioxide that occurs in suffocation (quite unpleasant). People who have been exposed to oxygen deficient environments created by displacement of oxygen by a noble gas, in cases where they survived, report no recollection of what happened to them.

    Great Video Jade ❤ I watched the post-execution press conference as well as hearing the witness statements. My conclusion is that this was not how the state predicted the execution procedure to unfold. It was indeed grim and cruel, both to observe and I can't even imagine to experience. Granted the crime(s) committed that lead to the execution were terrible, but the death penalty is simply retribution and vengeance. As well as irreversible if the inmate was wrongfully convicted. Let's abolish the death penalty and be the civilized country that we're proported to be.

      The first electric chair execution did not go very well either. If I remember it correctly, a witness at the time said "They would have done better using an axe". As a student of history, I feel something is missing between that point, and when the chair became more widely adopted. As in, how on Earth anyone was convinced it was more humane than hanging? Looking at history, it seems humanity has no problem killing our fellow man in horrible, brutal ways, but has a very poor track record in finding swift, relatively humane ways to do it. I do have mixed feelings on capital punishment. On one hand, some people are so far beyond redemption or rehabilitation, it may be the only real option, on the other hand, given how broken our justice system really is, there have been far too many people later found innocent. Frankly one is too many.

    You know, here in the UK we haven't had the death penalty for around fifty years - I was always staunchly against it in all cases, but at the moment in my late twenties, I've swung in the other direction for certain crimes, but only these few. Anything involving children, SA (including R obviously), domestic abuse - for me, if guilt is proven, I see only one appropriate consequence, the forfeiture of that creature's life. I wouldn't be against my ex-abuser leaving this world in this way. I would not hope that it was a painless experience for him.
    My thoughts in Smith's case are only with Elizabeth Dorlene Sennett, who is forever 45, and her family and friends, and those poor souls who had to witness the gruesome end to the murderer's life.

  • @firetruck988

    The people defending this method with case/animal studies are neglecting that in the case of accidental hypoxia, the victim *does not know* of the danger, and cannot react before loss of consciousness. We don't know if he deliberately held his breath, or if it was an involuntary survival attempt caused by knowledge of danger.

    • @firetruck988
      @firetruck988 4 дня назад +2

      Furthermore, Nitrogen Hypoxia has been tested for use in routine animal processing, and was found inferior to the traditional methods due to causing the animal distress. I would speculate this is due to use of a mask (a chamber would be too inefficient on gas), which allows restricts breathing and allows the animal some knowledge of the danger, hence the distress response.

    Wow.
    Instead of upping the Nitrogen content of regular air step by step, they just slapped an intimidating big mask on him - while he had been already quite nervous and anxious - and then directly went full on in with 100% Nitrogen.
    This happens if uneducated personal combined with lack of thought by experts and an already anxious inmate come together. This whole thing should had been cancelled from the beginning on.
    If a living being should be put unconcious via Nitrogen, things need to start slowly instead of bang on 100%. Its already enough to change the Nitrogen content minimal to start induce dizzyness. After dizzyness comes fatigue, after fatigue comes a short phase of sleep and followup unconciousness and then, due to asphyxiation, death. This process takes about 15 - 20 minutes. While unconciousness should be achieved at around 8 to 10 when doing things in a slower pace and step by step. Also some sort of sedative to ease anxiety should had been administered.
    This cannot be broken down to a couple of deep breaths and death in 2 - 3 minutes while being at 100% conciousness to start with. This is plain incompetence. The "experts" that put up this schedule should be brought up to court for ignorance and stupidity and violating constitutional rights. Aswel as the people in charge to not stop this botched mess.

      I recommend further research, your initial view was correct, but there are a lot of misunderstandings due to unscientific assumptions often made.
      Although the condemned exhibited some alarming movements and breathing problems, he could not have possibly been aware or able to experience sensation. The struggle reported in this case was a result of the condemned trying to hold his breath, which lead to the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the blood, which triggered a survival response. Had he not held his breath, he would have been fully unconscious within a mere matter of seconds, before any autonomic bodily response could occur.

  • @sigmaballz1469
    @sigmaballz1469 8 месяцев назад +16

    When pilots learn about hypoxia they are told that that they have between 9-15 seconds of useful consciousness at an altitude of 45000' due to how 'thin' the air is at altitude. Although it seems strange that healthy people can hold their breath for 3-5 minutes but I've just assumed that taking breaths with insufficient levels of oxygen rapidly flushes out the oxygen left in your bloodstream quickly incapacitating someone. Back when I was suicidal I had determined that nitrogen asphyxiation was the way I wanted to go because I was under the impression that within 1 or 2 painless breaths I would be essentially be out cold before I knew it (I had also heard this from accounts of industrial accidents which are briefly mentioned in the video). Now for better or worse I never got my hands on a pressurized tank of pure nitrogen hence why I'm typing this comment, however, I always thought that would be a peaceful way to go. Now this video has called some of my previous assumptions into question. However, I have a hypothesis that maybe some details on the execution were missing, given that Smith was not a willing participant he may have been holding his breath and not fully inhaled and exhaled the pure nitrogen before vomiting and subsequently choking on his vomit which then inhibited him from taking any more breaths. Then again I'm no expert and those are just my initial thoughts.

I used to do inventories, one day as I was making inventories of our supply, unbeknownst to me one of the tanks had a leak. The storage room was a tight concealed room. I didn't feel anything at first, after a few minutes I started feeling dizzy and very light headed like I just had several shots in succession, then I felt nauseated, next thing I know I was out cold, completely unaware of what was happening. Fortunately a coworker found me laying there and rushed me to the infirmary. I was told a few minutes longer and I would've had irreversible brain damage if not dead.

    Alabama was just trying to make a name for itself. Funny how their next execution in May ‘24 they went back to lethal injection! Alabama claims to be “tough on crime” yet still have some of the highest violent crime in the country. My Mom was murdered in Orange Beach, AL in 2018 by her second husband while they were wintering there. Alabama and the local law enforcement refused to investigate her murder because she was from out of state; they just didn’t care! They would rather waste their resources going after someone who committed a murder 35-years earlier when he was in his 20’s and basically a stupid kid! I don’t condone murder or other crime, but many other murders are given life sentences, so why not this guy? Then they botch the attempt to execute him by lethal injection; that should’ve been it right there. Preparing for death is worse than the actual dying, which this guy did. He then should have been commuted to life in prison, like many other crimes similar or worse than his. Alabama has double standard, they play pick-and-choose with what crimes they take seriously and pursue, and unfair dealings of “justice.” Again, their violent crime remains high, go figure!

There were containers filled with hypoxia inducing gasses and food. The pigs went right in there,ate until they passed out. Then they were brought out, came to senses and went right back in there to eat the food. He put on a show and held his breath for as long as he could, so thats on him. He didnt have to do that.

    Hi, Jade. Thank you for providing the RUclips community with your channel. And thank you for sharing some of your personal thoughts. I agree that capital punishment in the United States was/is not an effective deterrent and that it is brutally expensive, both in legal costs and in technical costs. That having been said, the handful of existing Canadian and Japanese studies argue that capital punishment (until its abolishment in Canada) actually was a fairly effective deterrent. I've long wondered why. Luckily, my brother is profoundly interested in criminal psychology and he explained that in order for deterrence to work you need two things: severity and _consistency._ Severity alone, no matter how great, will not deter anybody. This is why nuclear deterrence fails so often in the real world. To cite just one example, Britain's nuclear weapons certainly didn't deter Argentina from starting the Falklands War.
    There was one very important difference between the United States and Canada when it came to capital punishment, and that was consistency of application. In the U.S. each state legislature decides whether or not to even keep it on the books and each state has varying rules and procedures pertaining to the application of capital punishment. In at least one state, for example, a judge cannot hand down a sentence of death unless the jury unanimously agrees. Therefore, a would-be perpetrator of piracy, treason, terrorism, or first-degree murder knows that a sentence of death isn't very likely. Of course, somewhere in the back of the condemned's mind is the possibility of nearly endless appeals if the sentence is handed down.
    By contrast, the Criminal Code of Canada applies equally across all provinces and territories and when capital punishment still remained on the books it was married up to a law of mandatory minimum sentencing. A judge's hands were tied. If the accused was convicted of anything that was considered a capital crime (some examples in previous paragraph), that was it. A judge would say something like,
    _"The jury finds you guilty of_ (let's say terrorism). _Unfortunately, a sentence of death by hanging is the only one I may legally hand you. Is there anything you still wish to say to the court?"_
    D.B. Cooper would be quite the dead guy if he committed the same crime in Canada and was caught. And the...ah-hem... estimated wait time would have been considerably shorter than in the vast majority of U.S. states.

      @@pioneercynthia1 It's still true, though. Critics of capital punishment are always very careful to cite only American data while refusing to cite data from other Western countries such as France, Canada, Japan, and the United Kingdom.
      I remember listening to a university professor - he was an old dude. He was teaching the class about British colonial practices, emphasizing India. He started talking about this British cavalry officer witnessing the soon-to-commence stoning of a woman. The officer yelled out something probably akin to,
      "What the bloody hell are you chaps doing? Don't you know that in England men who murder women hang like dogs?"
      The Indian villagers stated that in their culture, a woman could be stoned for various things ranging from adultery to marrying someone from outside her caste. The cavalry officer was not swayed. He retorted that if the villagers wanted to continue their custom, they could expect the British authorities to continue their own!
      As I recall, the day's stoning was hastily cancelled. There you have it. Deterrence _does_ work.

      Close but not quite. It’s not severity and _consistency._ It’s severity and _certainty._
      Nearly half of all murders go unsolved. There’s no certainty whatsoever that you’ll be caught, much less convicted, and only a small chance that you will be caught convicted *and* sentenced to the maximum.

      @@valerierodger Good point. However, getting caught in the '70s generally meant getting sentenced to the max. Even so, one of the last criminals in the Twentieth Century to go to the guillotine was a sex trafficker operating in France's North African colonies. He probably believed he'd never get caught.
      Meanwhile, in Canada (and in a time period I'm alive to see), the Liberal government enacted Bill C-5. This is a bail reform law that cops refer to as the 'Catch and Release Bill'. Statistics from StatsCan, the RCMP, and all municipal police departments from Vancouver to Winnipeg to Toronto clearly show a steep increase in all types of crime from auto theft to murder from 2017 to 2024. In Toronto, for example, a cop killer murdered another on-duty officer _while out on bail._ This is no exaggeration. Under Prime Minister Stephen Harper's Conservative admin, mandatory minimum sentencing (but not capital punishment) was reinstated, only to be abolished once again when Justin Trudeau took office. The Liberal Party of Canada does indeed have a deserved reputation for being soft on crime. The minister of public safety, Marco Mendocino (this greasy - insert applicable ethnic slur - used to be a crown prosecutor FFS) even decided that serial killer Paul Bernardo deserved to be transferred from supermax to medium. Go figure.
      Nobody will ever be able to convince me that tough-on-crime policies aren't a deterrent. I actually live in a country where I can look at statistics by the decade and watch crime rates go up and down depending on who's in office, and the policies they've enacted. As of 2024, the difference is actually 'feel-able'. Even in 2019 I never worried about where I went in Vancouver. Yeah, sure, there was one dodgy spot on the corner of Hastings and Main, but the rest of the downtown core was quite safe. Even at night. I could walk all the way from Strathcona down to Kitsilano. Now, though, I wouldn't dare unless I wanted a knife in my ribs just for the couple of twenties in my wallet.

    I like this channel a lot, mostly because of the objective way that it presents practices that, in my view, are barbaric. However I can understand that less evolved or less educated humans may find solace or a sense of retribution or even peace in the death of someone that has wronged you directly or indirectly. I live in a 3rd world country, and for at least 40 years, we've deemed these practices just too inhumane and senseless.

    THIS has changed my views on "creative execution ideas" by staff who beat their spouses. Are incompetent to do executions and dream up tortured ideas. On 1000 ways to die. Someone in a bodysuit got nitrogen instead of oxygen. The show said he was dead b4 he hit the floor. This must be where they got their misinformation from. There's quicker, quieter ways to do a humane execution. Fentanyl is quick to render unconscious. Stop breathing. But it's not a quiet, quick deàth. They've tried it and they mixed it with a low level benzo and it took nearly 39 minutes. The best would be a numbing gel to base of neck. Then an automatic set of blades to an apparatus. Severing nerves for heart, lunch, consciousness. Dead instantly. Asleep in moments. Without need for any needles. Nasal spray, sprayed into mouth. Etc. I don't want any part of assisting in ones death.

My Mom was murdered in Orange Beach, AL by her second husband while they were wintering there, and the state and local law enforcement didn’t care because she was from out of state! They did no investigation, they just didn’t care! Then they’re bent on executing this poor slob who murdered someone 35-years earlier when he was in his 20’s and basically a dumb kid! I mean, they have plenty of other murder cases they give life in prison, so why not this guy? And if a judge over-rules a jury then why even have a jury and waste those people’s time?! They suck!
