That's not how the human body works contrary to your comment.
He was sapient the entire time the grenade went off in his face and was indeed suffering from extreme pain from his decision.
He was slowly bleeding out, and you see him helpless as he lays there realizing the mistake he made.
Goes to show you how shit Russian training is; to use a shitty grenade that used low-yield explosives to spread shrapnel; a grenades' intent is to maim not kill. That way you take more personnel out of the fight because they must tend to wounded people with shrapnel injuries.
You watched a man die slowly and painfully. This is exactly what he deserved.
My dude, sapient is not medical terminology. There's a scale of consciousness utilized in medicine that goes from conscious and coherent all the way down to Coma.
Just because you are moving doesn't mean you are coherent enough to understand what's happening or even able to recognize that you are in pain.
Your brain is partitioned in a way where most of the physiology required to sustain life are located lower near the spinal cord. Ive had to treat more than my fair share of suicide attempts where the patient basically just destroys their frontal lobes. They are alive and able to move in some cases, but there's no pain.
You are absolutely full of shit. In the context of our discussion, how can you prove to me that without a question of a doubt all of your patients did not feel pain?
Lol, this is medicine we're talking about....not law. I can say with confidence that the patients I was specifying did not feel pain as it is currently defined by medicine.
That being said, our current medical definition of pain is widely debated, and thought to be too dependent on our limited understanding of consciousness.
Now, the reason I can assert that my patient felt no pain is pretty simple. Those patients did not possess the required physiology to be conscious, and unconscious people do not feel pain.
So what exactly leads you to believe I am "absolutely full of shit"? What experience do you have in medicine again?
I think they know nothing of the nervous system, let alone the PNS. One of those people that lack the knowledge base, but with a mixture of intelligence and poor mental health will make shit up and tell themselves they're right while vehemently putting down anyone that objects.
