What Last Hour on Death Row Looks Like (Minute by Minute) 

so true

Of course...

This is a really goofy quote from someone who is extremely sheltered in life. I'm pretty sure most torture victims prefer quick death... Even in this extremely tame method of execution, and even if you're innocent, this is a much better way to die than spending decades rotting in prison, isolated from freedom.

If you fear death then you are not really living... Don't let the inevitable death that you will have bring you fear, don't let fear win; you are stronger than it is. Overcome fear

This why u have to accept an afterlife cuz it exits

I've actually listened to an executioner interview and he said that most of them are actually totally calm and fully accepting of what they've done, and it's rare for them to be on edge or uneasy. Many of them have been on death row for many years and have lived with the guilt of what they've done, so many of them are just ready to get it over with and end their daily misery.

What if they had a heart attack and died from it? What then? 🤔

So was the victim

I'd think by that point you wouldn't be anxious because you would have reached a stage of acceptance. And you've had all the time in the world to prepare. But yeah hard to know how you'd react unless you were in that situation. I don't know what I would act like or be feeling on the final day. I would hope that I would be calm but who knows.

By that point most people have already accepted their fate.

I'm in favor of the death penalty. However, I whole heartedly believe it needs a real revamp. Unfortunately, there are innocent people on death row & I'm sure there have been innocent people executed.

@@rodgerbroadway5555 Every one of them is innocent in their eyes. F that

Don’t even go there

@@ducklifee_6260 what? The truth? Hurts to think about, doesn't it? We're in fact murderers.

Over a gram of the devils cabbage

Karma yourself but i’m sorry for your brother

Who was the kid? If you feel don’t want to tell me it’s ok I get it

@@BootyBlaster9000 who was the kid

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Hard karma (truly sorry about your brother)

Make the president or a senator do it? 😂😂😂😂

@@boyankovachev7982 well the sentence was most likely passed by a judge or a jury so they should do it

Executioner walks in with a 2 handed Valerian steel sword.

For a time that was common practice in Ancient Rome. I remember learning about that practice to make judges more reluctant to pass that special verdict - but since I am out of school since 1995, I can't remember the exact era 😅.

Only half kidding but a firing squad with a couple marksmen, the judge, the premier/governor, and PM/president on it wouldn't be a bad idea on the occasion a death penalty is "needed".

@Leander Herman I think most countries don’t do executions anymore, I might be wrong

What about those who truly deserve it?

@@sageharris Even just 1 falsely convicted, falsely executed person is too many. Notice how many D.A.'s across the country are taking the death penalty off the table. By doing that THEY secure a much easier conviction. They know that a lot of jurors wont impose the ultimate sentence.

@@sageharris the people who did horrible things get killed by the prisoners lol

@@sageharris like pedos

Are u planning on committing a death row worthy act soon?

@@collinsa8909 you never know

We are all on death row.

Try emigrating to a country where there is no death row, due to abolition of the death penalty. That would take care of your panic attack. Plenty of abolitionist countries to choose from. In the EU we are all unexeptionally abolitionist for at least the last 35 years. One of the paramount terms of joining the Union, is the abolition of the death penalty for all crimes, at anytime. We have had enough of hangings, beheadings, firing squads and even worse in our past. Never again. Death and torture does not deter crime. It only makes matters worse.

@@ast-og-losta there's always gonna be that one guy who's negative about everything

pretty much what their victims felt, no sympathy here to none of them

@@ppmm2708 but some death row inmates are innocent, especoally during the time when all black people is easily accused...there was a movie about it

@@mielmiel8591True, but that doesn't happen anymore and if that were to happen then you are really unlucky because the chances are almost none for you to be innocent if it happens

@@ppmm2708 Unless they actually are innocent, because we are not infallible

@@Idk-mh9pl um... it does. Forensics moves forward and a whole lot of people have been exonerated. Is one dead innocent man worth it? Especially considering that there have been a good many who have been proven to be so?

who cares how they feel

@@raintree3383 nah it’s still interesting to think about

@@raintree3383 And what about wrongfully convicted people?

@@raintree3383true but when one self cares for others you can’t help to feel sad even for people that in a moment of anger or mental illness commits horrible crimes that most will regret until the moment they are put to death.

I can only imagine the terror that their victims felt.

ugh - could Imagine sitting there knowing you are about to die for something you didnt do.

@@AnikaHope-gd6xu ramen noodles

... agree

Yeah, especially putting the mother as a witness to the execution of her child is perfect for inducing anxiety amongst viewers.

I’m glad you mentioned this, I was feeling anxious too… and I’m not even there 😅

Why I'm watching this even though I have Thanatophobia? Darn! But yeah, anxiety through the roof.

Totally human to feel that way, both sides of the argument of is it right or wrong to sentence someone to death would both sympathize a little because death is death and something we can all relate too at some point and the grief that comes from death. It's hard not to feel sympathy unless the person is really a monster

Would you rather spend 23 hours in a cell for the rest of your life or get to clock out early

@@russell6075 death is still scary even if it's the better option tbf, tho I do see and agree with your point in terms of why I disagree with the death penality in thinking it gives murderers an easy way out

True,agony of knowing that you are gonna die soon is more scary than the death itself

People been dieing for a couple 100 thousand years now. God or no, there’s no way around it. It sad but times moving! And we are it’s passenger!

💀

So true, and I have a friend right now that’s due to be executed on Feb 7 in MO. He has always claimed his innocence. Idk whether he’s guilty and wasn’t there. I don’t necessarily believe in the death penalty for the reason that some people are found innocent after the fact. I feel bad about all involved, especially the family of the victims! He’s hoping for a stay but it seems very grim. He’s asking for clemency in MO. I guess we will see what happens.

💀

@@tweettweetyweety 💀

@@MarriageFraudSurvivors what happened?

Tbh I don’t think there’s anything, but our consciousness, which is basically just “us”, is gone, so we aren’t anywhere, really. We aren’t anything anymore. Death is literally just a state of not being. Sure, we could have souls, and we could go somewhere, but don’t focus on your death. Live in the seconds, days, months, and years before your final breaths. Be alive.

It’s been reported by some that almost died that the chemical storm in the brain is euphoric.

It's a team so I'm guessing they do quite a few every day or maybe even every other day then schedule their uploads

@@sagewarren8431 Yeah, they definitely have a decently sized team. 3-5 writers I'd guess, and probably 3 editors as well at least considering the upload frequency. Same guy does all the reads though.

@@AxelAlexK agreed

A really good team.

@@AxelAlexK No, they need A LOT of animators and artists to do this schedule. Animation is the longest process, not the writing, research or editing. The writing and research could be done by a single person in the matter of a few hours for most videos and _maybe_ a day or for certain videos. Editing is also lengthy but meh, each of these videos could be edited in less than a day's work. Short ones like this are probably edited in a few hours by any competent video-editor. This team crunches for a few weeks then periodically uploads their stuff with decent downtime i'd imagine.

True, but ethics does not mean justice. And justice rule them all.

That's probably why ethics is irrational

Not much they could do really they just tell them they died and execution is canceled

there are protocols..watch other videos on the topic in this channel ..The management takes care of everything including food..for example some people who are allergic to peanuts will order peanuts on purpose as their last wish to die from allergy but the management monitors and performs full health check to see what the prisoners can have.. also there won't be any extra clothing inside cell so prisoners don't hang or choke themselves etc.. Many other protocols

Ye can't cheat me out of me execution, lad!

Prisoner suicide happened twice that I know of. One was notable, and it happened in 1946 at Nuremberg. Former Luftwaffe CinC and Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering cheated the hangman by swallowing cyanide less than two hours before he would've been the first man on the gallows. The second instance happened in Texas decades later. The prisoner was found dead in his cell having slit his own wrists. He used his own blood to write "I didn't do it" on the wall of his cell before dying of blood loss.

That would be so super awesome!

@@sirskorge what do you mean-

Yeah I feel like I have too

Ayo same

this has to be a reup load

I think they did make this vid before, I know that they made "What the last 24 hours on death row will be like"

It's NOT more humane, if one is unrepentant and unChristian when one dies.

@@samantha14843 In both cases a human is killed. What is the difference?

@@sueperglue8847 one of then was killed for a good reason.

@@davidbeeson9408 there have been innocent people on death row

@@rainxash Not debating that. This guy wasn’t innocent & many others aren’t innocent. Some are, yeah. I’m not advocating the death penalty but In this particular state it exists. The guy knew it existed when he did what he did. That’s a fact. What do you want ?

Oh PLEASE.....how do you think their Victims felt knowing that had zero minutes left to live

Everyone deserves mercy..don't mean they aren't punished or banished...

@@FoxyBoxery Work is a must, especially for long term convicts as part of their re-education. But not the hard ''forced labour'' employed in the past even by democracies such as the US and France, because it amounts to maltreatment and torture.

I don’t agree with the death penalty either

Improper anesthesia is one of my biggest fears. Regardless of whether it’s for execution or for surgery, I can’t imagine the horror of feeling everything being done to me but being unable to move or scream. Meanwhile, onlookers think I’m not feeling a thing.

The fact that innocent people get the death penalty doesn't mean we have to abolish it. Innocent people get thrown in prison all the time. Should we abolish prison?

@@angelosmorfis4412 The older I get the more I realize that life isn't black and white but often grey. This is why I wrote that there are several reasons coming together in my mind why death penalty should be omitted. However the counterargument is not valid. A) Yes, innocent people are put into prison and are sentenced to death. If you didn't sentence the latter group to death, they are still in prison innocently with a life sentence instead. B) Death penalty is extraordinary in that is an irrevocable sentence comparable to other corporeal punishments like amputation. It exceeds there as with other sentences (serving time or even corporeal punishments (which I also reject)), if innocence is proven resp. guilt disproven, the wrongly convicted person can be exonerated and can be reintroduced to being free again which the person should have been all the time. After execution, any exoneration is solely a bitter reparation for relatives having lost a loved person which didn't have to die. C) Two wrongs do not make one right. There is no moral imperative to harm one group of people (wrong death sentence) because another group of comparable persons are harmed (prison sentence). Instead, the moral obligation is to better serve both groups. Prison does serve a purpose for factually guilty people but none for innocent people. This should be the goal, which I hope you agree to. There are of course several other issues like racially based execution rates, misrepresentation by mostly public defenders, questionable death sentences to people who were tested to be so low IQ that the death sentence shouldn't even have been applicable, however I think above points provide enough reason to countermand your argument.

@@angelosmorfis4412 A prison sentence isn't permanent, a death sentence is. Even a single case of an innocent person sent to death is unacceptable, the fact you even think otherwise shows you need serious help.

I wouldn't be surprised if they also got a COVID booster shot at the same time.

Personally, would not mind if they get infected and die anyway, even if their execution is halted. They on death row for a reason.

@@STCatchMeTRACjRo easy for you to say when your in the safety of your home not on death row about to die 😂🤦‍♂️ bet you'd think the exact opposite if you were one of them and happen to be innocent ha ha the hypocrisy is hilarious

@@josiahgonzalez9423% are innocent

Narcissist duo!

Glad we don't have to wait exactly 60mins for the execution

Bro you ok

Wtf?

You are on death row

Some estimates hold that as many as 5% of death row inmates are innocent. That's 1 in 20

@ScottForsythe Each one is to much . Must be a nightmare . I never heared the Government appologize for that in public .

Exactly why this should be banned everywhere. I would never wish a murderer on death row because it would haunt me much more thinking that maybe they were innocent

@@ChrisClark1999 You know there are more innocent people locked up for life than on death row? So should we ban prisons due to innocent people get life sentence and die behind bars?

@@STCatchMeTRACjRo If they are locked up for life they have a chance of being proved innocent and let out

Or just not do it at all to many innocent people die amd you cant bring them back

@@frankieslefttoe8210 agreed

probably not gas chambers, maybe the oxygen masks like you mentioned. never thought of that

@@kieronparr3403 It is a terrible way to die. It is like being strangulated but you are still concious for a minute or three.

R.I.P Im sorry, man.

Yes but they earned it they killed people lots of people to get death row

For the crimes some of them did, not brutal enough. They should be castrated, they should be tortured till their final day and their execution should be slow and painful. If the victims died in agonizing pain, so should the condemned.

@@Shleggo liberal babbling 🙄

LOL

What about those wrongly convicted? Or what about mental health crisis that led someone to committing a crime that warrants a death penalty. What about race and other human factors that give certain people harsher penalies for the same crimes?

What the criminal do is insanity.

At least you avenged your clan

Why

i do agree with death penalty but in some cases, like terrorism and other barbarities, and the inmate suffering should be directly proportional to the suffering caused.

I’d have to disagree, I think the death penalty is a god

Death penalty stops us from having to pay for their existence. Billions and billions are spent keeping life sentence inmates alive, which is the only alternative.

well maybe they shouldn't have committed a crime worthy of being on death row

@@sterlingcampbell2116 Actually the death penalty is more expensive than imprisoning someone got life.
