so its basically a cheaper way of drowning someone without turning them upside down or requiring a whole pool of water and bricks tied to the ankles so they would sink and drown. i thought they would just drip water on them instead of pour it. or is that something else?

it's probably torturous due to the liquid viscosity and surface tension of water, being that it's so thick compared to most other substances

try "milkboarding" or "colaboarding" or some shit like that, and the consequences will be less grave.

Hey is anybody else surprised neither of these guys could last longer than 3 seconds? I mean, even if their air supply were completely eliminated, I don't understand how they only lasted that long.

It does make me want to try. I promise to record and post it if I do, but only if you bastards promise to rate it 5/5. =D


With adequate proof that it is you, I will literally pay you $100 for every second above 5 seconds you are waterboarded


I'll do it.

Its about a state of mind more than anything else. The intention when you are waterboarded is not to kill you. It is to extract information. Once you know this you can last as long as your will is there. Most of us in the military have epicly fucking huge wills.

How much is in your bank account?

I would be willing to bet that you would be an absolute pussy. I'd LOVE to see you waterboarded. You wouldn't last 5 seconds.

Do you think the people in the videos in this thread knew that they wouldn't actually drown? Yes they did. They know exactly what you know, but look at them bail after seconds and STILL talk about the fear they experienced.

I'm sure they also haven't been put through numerous other things that, us in the military endure all the time. You see, my job entails more than getting behind a mic every day.

I'm just pointing out my routine is a bit more stressful than most hence the higher threshold.

Why does anybody even listen to Hannity; hell this is the same guy that thinks Halloween is a liberal holiday and that it is used to teach our kids to ask for handouts. I mean seriously...

/facepalm. The only person I watch on Fox is Glenn Beck, though Hannity's radio program isn't *that* bad I like the 'ask the person on the street' stuff. Pretty eye opening.

I ask the same question. Why does anybody even listen to Olbermann and Maddow?

I'm more of a Mark Levin and Glenn Beck type of guy.

Hannity is such a bitch. He claims that waterboarding isn't torture and that he would do it from the troops families, but never goes through with it. Keith Olbermann calls him out on it and says he'll pay him an inordinate sum of money but Hannity doesn't even respond. It's astonishing how people who have no idea what they are talking about can spew nonsense simply because they are on a prominent station. It's like males being against abortion.

Glenn Beck is a bit of a douchecanoe as well. 9/12? "I fear for my country" and the forced tears? What utter nonsense.

This is probably a pretty stupid question, but couldn't you just hold your breath while they do it? I suppose you couldn't if they did it to you for twenty minutes, but it seems like they'd have to say to these people who do it for the experience, "alright, now you have to INHALE when we pour the water on your face."

Oh yes, these are the worst 'people in the world'. Where on that list is Fidel Castro, Kim Jong-Il, ad infinitum dictators and add in those responsible for genocide (Darfur). Nope...not those guys. His side buddies buddies with those guys.

I think the ultimate torture for me, would strap me down and watch MSNBC for 12 hours. I think I'd rather shoot myself.

The method involved triggers the gag reflex immediately. You're trying to breathe from the go.

And to the people saying there is no risk to the participant, you're wrong. Oxygen deprivation can occur, and if you dont think theres risk in that- I don't know what to tell you.

Whoa, that's scary as hell... Especially the fact that you can't do anything about it, and have no idea what's going to come.

I mean your heart rate must already be insanely just out of anticipation and fear, not to mention the fact that you're being drowned. Definitely torture in my book.

This makes me sick to my stomach. America is an incredible country with so many great aspects.

But the thought that we did this just makes me sick.
