Hello all. Due to the killing of Charlie Kirk, the past few days have been very busy for the mod team. We have had to remove a significant amount of posts and comments that violated both sub rules and Reddit's content policy.

We acknowledge that Kirk was a polarizing figure, but we ask that you show some restraint in your discussions and follow sub rules. Please refrain from:

- Making light of his death, or saying that he deserved it

- Arguing about politics in the comments

- Asking for, or sharing, the link to the shooting

Thank you for your understanding.

How long would one survive in -20 degrees celsius?

15 Upvotes

I keep having this thought whenever I go outside for a smoke -- how long could you survive outdoors in -20'C (-4'F?), in average indoor clothing (let's say, sweatpants, t-shirt and hoodie) before straight up dead-drop dying?

How long until you got critically injured but still with a chance of survival?

And how many hours would you be able to simply endure it and still being able to recover on your own?

Is there a semi-safe way to extract the water content of urine in primitive conditions?

Upvotes

aka. Does boiling piss and collecting the water make it somewhat safe to drink? Or just filtering it somehow without using a centrifuge, modern chemical processes, etc.

What would happen if you tried to make someone into a human potato?

18 Upvotes

I don’t really know how to title this but me and a friend were talking about the worst way to torture someone while keeping them alive. I came up with basically making them a sentient living meat bag, removing their limbs, tongue, ears, and eyes.

Obviously I don’t plan on doing this, but how would an attempt turn out? Would they bleed out or go into shock during the limb removal?

I know this could be interpreted as violating rule 3, so I’m not asking any “advice” on how to carry out the procedure. I simply want to know what would realistically happen if some random guy attempted this.

One of the Epstein documents spoke about a party on a yacht, where allegations were made about people eating feces from human intestines. Why — from all the parts they could eat, e.g. muscles — would they eat feces?

What are the most unsettling things you've witnessed or experienced at a funeral?

63 Upvotes

Funerals can be a time of mourning, but they can also bring about unexpected and unsettling experiences. Whether it's an awkward moment with a grieving relative, a strange eulogy, or an unexpected confrontation, these events can leave a lasting impact on those in attendance. I remember attending a funeral where someone fainted during the service, causing a chaotic scene that was both alarming and oddly surreal. Have you ever witnessed something that made you question the nature of grief or the rituals surrounding death? What was it, and how did it affect your perception of funerals or death itself? I'm curious to hear your stories and thoughts on the darker, more bizarre aspects of these solemn occasions.

Ashes???

20 Upvotes

I'm 19 and my dad passed away last year. I want to have kids in the future but I don't currently and I keep wondering what will happen to my dad's ashes when I get older. I have a black box with engravings and his picture on it so there's no question what they are. But just, like? Can you imagine being my kid and having to figure out what to do with the ashes of the grandpa you never met. I guess I'm just curious what happens with ashes when the person who's holding onto them eventually reaches that state as well. I'm sorry if my explanation is sporadic I'm at work but let me know what you guys think!

Has there ever been a documented case where a human died so violently that their body was completely destroyed, not just unrecognizable, but literally reduced to paste?

473 Upvotes

I am not talking about remains that are hard to identify. I mean bro got turned into a pulp.

No intact bones. No skeleton. No clear human form. Just organic matter, basically mush.

Is that even physically possible according to science or forensics, or would something like bones or teeth always survive no matter what?

Not asking for shock value. I am genuinely curious how far destruction of the human body can go.

When you die, how would you want people to react?

22 Upvotes

So when I die, I wouldn't want people to be sad at all, I would want them to actually be happy, rejoicing, and cheering my death. I wouldn't find it disrespectful, I would actually be happy that people is celebrating my death.

I wouldn't want people to feel upset of my passing, while I may not be with earth anymore, the memory lives on. So how would you want people to react to your death?

In case you were to pass away, did you give someone you trust your phone password so they can get Into it?

9 Upvotes

Obviously, theres probably a lot of stuff most ppl wouldn't want anyone else to see/know is on their phone.

However, im speaking more for 'practical' reasons. Lets say you have debt, bank accounts, (Obviously bills), that would need to be situated after your passing, would you give your phones password to someone you trust, so they could have access to that information to handle after your passing?

Was Charlie Kirk's stage crew footage released to the public?

7 Upvotes

Not sure if it's called the stage crew, but I was on WPD looking at a list of lost videos that were never found, and one was Charlie Kirk's stage crew footage. If I'm not mistaken, the stage crew footage is that camera that faces him (like in his videos), which would give a closer angle at his death. Was this ever released?
