You aren't one of those people who think Colbert is a conservative are you?


No. I don't watch Colbert anyways. I tend to drift to the more constitutional crowd those with you know, principles and values, then create platforms around those. Arrgh, who am I kidding anyways, the people in politics now-a-days with that gumption is less than 5% and thats being generous.

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?


Most people in the military also lack any degree beyond a high school diploma. You may be an exception. I dont know, but I highly doubt your state of mind can immediately overpower years of evolutionary adaptation aimed at avoiding drowning. With your hands and feet and body bound, do you really believe you'll remain calm. With practice who knows what anyone can accomplish. Surely your self assured faith in your "epically fucking huge will" can help you here.

Live to win.

Gee, and the conservatives being waterboarded didn't know that they weren't going to be killed? I really want to see how long your "epicly fucking huge will" would last. Somehow, I think attempting to "outwill" the feeling of drowning is a lot harder to "outwill" your standard pain.

%100 guaranteed he'll freak the first time, it has nothing to do with will power. When I did it earlier...there is really nothing to compare the feeling of panic. However I think after the first time you know what to expect and with practice you will be able to endure it.
yes.

I've been in the pool and accidentally breathed water in through my mouth and water got in to my nose at the same time (I was seeing how many forward rolls I could do underwater with one breath). I think its comparable to some degree, I wasn't completely filled up, but I can still recall the feeling over a decade later.

Yeah except that it feels like your going to die right away after a few seconds because your nose fills up with water and your extremely fast heartbeat will deplete your oxygen in a matter of seconds, which causes an immense fear/panic reaction

Yes, as opposed to the crowd who does anything for power, disregards the intent and wording of the constitution and panders to groups.

I'm sure you think taking over industries is constitutional. Never mind the fact that the founders sought to strictly LIMIT the power to the federal government.

Conservative/Libertarian/Constitutionalist. Yes.

Progressive, which now-a-days just means socialist, marxist, etc. No.

Really, you think the (D)'s who spend every waking moment to limit the 2nd amendment and impose restrictions on the first amendment, and bypass the 10th amendment, or just skip right over it, have this immense gratitude and upholding of the you know, supreme law of the land. This same group who doesn't enforce any immigration laws at all. Yes, that group who are blatantly, un-constitutional.

Don't worry, the (R)'s are just one little step behind them.

one of the biggest "stories" of the last two years is "waterboarding". thats pretty telling of these times. the public debates what is and what isnt torture. as if anything the public knows has anything to do with what is done behind closed doors. waterboarding is child's play compared to what really goes on. the fact that it has even entered the public/media discourse is evidence that it is a red herring, a non-issues, just something to put on in between commercials.

I think what he meant to say was 'fight or flight response'...no no...'instincts'...possibly...oh rubbish, everyone knows the things people will do for money.

I'm a pretty calm demeanored guy, so yeah there would be no reason for my heart rate to increase. It takes quite a bit to get me anxious, nervous, scared, etc.

I'm also acutely aware of the 'fear of drowning' since you know, I am part of a Sea going service.
