it's funny people use these terms but aren't quite sure what they mean. Crucifixion was used as capital punishment aka until you're dead and crows eat your face off.

There is no surviving. Jebus didn't manage it so I suspect, and it's only a suspicion, do correct me if I'm wrong but I suspect you didn't either.

What if you're issued with a reprieve and taken down early? You can't call crucifixion anything other than what it is, so it would still be crucifixion, but you might live.

There is precedent here: another form of capital punishment, hanging, was still referred to as hanging, even if the sentence was to hang the victim nearly to death, and then to take them down, still living, and kill them a different, more painful way. See: the wikipedia entry on hanging, drawing and quartering, but only if you're not eating. Graphic content.

I suck

It was the spelling mistake.

.... plus: Utah

We could have overlooked one or the other, but not both.

I can be a no-fun word fascist too.

"Crucifixion" is derived from the Latin for attachment (-fixion) to a cross (-cruc). Nothing in the word itself implies death.

This is probably true.

However, it's like saying Electric Chair doesn't imply death either.

I'm not sure how many folks have endured Crucifixion or the Electric Chair and walked away from the event.

The same could also be said for: Head Shot




and... Marriage

I ended up searching this earlier (Gawd, my internet search history...) and apparently this bloke Josephus records that he successfully persuaded a Roman Emperor of the time to order three of his friends to be taken down.

One lived.

Wow, cool; verrry lucky guy.

'Crucifixion Survivor' would appear rather impressive on a resume, right?

any news on the Electric Chair or Head Shots?

also....

... don't bother looking into Marriage; by comparison to Crucifixion or the Electric Chair, it's far too depressing a subject.

I got the Electric Chair. This guy Kemmler survived, at least for a while. Edison helped develop the electric chair in an effort to smear Westinghouse/Tesla's creation--AC power--by branding it as more deadly than Edison's DC.

Of course, he's still credited with the light bulb, but most people don't know Edison's darker side.

"The warden strapped Kemmler in, attaching electrodes to his head. “Goodbye, William,” he said. Then he motioned for someone to flip the switch. “His shoulders slowly drew up as they sometimes do in the case of a man who is hanging,” a coroner later wrote.

Seventeen seconds later, two physicians determined that Kemmler was dead. The current was turned off. The room was silent. And then someone yelled, “Great God, he is alive!” Kemmler was breathing. His heart was beating. “Turn on the current!” someone else shouted. Four minutes later, Kemmler was really dead. His body took several hours to cool off. Newspapers called him the “poor wretch.”

Westinghouse was horrified. “They could have done a better job with an ax,” he told reporters, according to several books on the death penalty."

ADDED NOTE: I'm an electrical engineer by profession, so I knew this story to begin with. But I quoted the story above from this WashPo article:

I am sure you are right. We have to have adults supervise the adults dont ya know.

It's unfortunate...

Actually, I can't believe I'm saying this but this is kind of a good point.

It's possible to be hung up on a cross structure, either with the use of something like nails (rarely) or just tied there and, as per the general custom, left for days in that position nearly nude in the hot sun without food or water (again, as customarily done) and NOT die but...well...

There's such a thing as TOO literal, I mean sometimes, there's Drax-literal.
