Re: enduring temporary, but excruciating, pain
ROFL at the responses to this thread. Most people wouldn't last 5 minutes of something as relatively painless as waterboarding, and nobody would last 2 weeks without going utterly insane. Hey, even sleep deprivation for this period would terminate your sanity.

Re: enduring temporary, but excruciating, pain
OP,
I'm not sure how long it would take for that sort of pain to drive you insane, but I'd bet its less than two weeks. |

I can't quantify it precisely, nor would I want to attempt to. To be in that amount of pain for that long would cause some serious psychological problems, maybe even physiological - that's a [censored] ton of stress on your body. |

Re: enduring temporary, but excruciating, pain
No way I'd do 2 weeks for a billion dollars, but...
2 weeks = 48 hours = 2880 minutes = 172800 seconds I'd take 5 seconds of excruciating pain for $28k, though! |

Would I take 5 seconds of excruciating pain for $4k? It's hard to say. Can anyone describe what would be the worst pain possible to feel for 5 seconds that stops immediately afterwards? |
