It's really scary to know that there's people who were wrongfully convicted and received the death penalty. Imagine the fear of someone who was innocent as they walk into that room.
I'm in favor of the death penalty. However, I whole heartedly believe it needs a real revamp. Unfortunately, there are innocent people on death row & I'm sure there have been innocent people executed.
I've actually listened to an executioner interview and he said that most of them are actually totally calm and fully accepting of what they've done, and it's rare for them to be on edge or uneasy. Many of them have been on death row for many years and have lived with the guilt of what they've done, so many of them are just ready to get it over with and end their daily misery.
I'd think by that point you wouldn't be anxious because you would have reached a stage of acceptance. And you've had all the time in the world to prepare. But yeah hard to know how you'd react unless you were in that situation. I don't know what I would act like or be feeling on the final day. I would hope that I would be calm but who knows.
This is a really goofy quote from someone who is extremely sheltered in life. I'm pretty sure most torture victims prefer quick death... Even in this extremely tame method of execution, and even if you're innocent, this is a much better way to die than spending decades rotting in prison, isolated from freedom.
If you fear death then you are not really living... Don't let the inevitable death that you will have bring you fear, don't let fear win; you are stronger than it is. Overcome fear

I personally don't like the whole execution thing anyhow, but if it has to happen I think they should switch to nitrogen asphyxiation. It's simple, painless and pretty quick. I think you could even re-use old gas chambers, or oxygen masks.
There shouldn't be a death sentence. Some innocents have died because of this. People should instead be offered euthanasia and if they don't want it, they should get life sentences. That being said, yes I think some people have done things which they deserve to die for, but just the fact that innocent people have been killed unjustly this way should make us consider alternatives
@@corneliussmiff2773 You need to look at more logically and not emotionally. Its only ~80 innocents out of 2000 that are on death row and only 2000 got the death penalty out of 180k murderess currently locked up. so no reason its not acceptable.
i feel like your last hour would be depressing but in a way, happy. like you just know you that everything you do, you can never do again. you’re constantly countin the seconds, restless for your death, it’s exhilarating
I believe no one should get the death sentence. The harshest penalty for crime should be life in prison with no possibility of parole . And leave it at that.
What should not be forgotten: This video shows a ideal run-through. I absolutely reject Death Penalty, but be it as it is. However several issues are not included in the video, starting from innocently executed (from whom several hundreds if memory serves correctly have be officially exonerated), through the issue of botched executions: Due to sourcing issues the first shot is now usually ommitted for a one or two substance solution. There are very heavy indicators that people are not put to sleep but only immobilized and suffer from an extreme feeling of burning inside for several minutes under full consciousness before dyeing. Apart from this, other issues arise like prison staff not being able to find veins due to former drug issues, prodding the person multiple times (as far as I know without anesthetic). Other bothes like injecting into muscle tissue leaving to further agony as the distribution of the drug is slowed which is not adjusted to schedule, waiting for hours on governors call to stay or to continue
Improper anesthesia is one of my biggest fears. Regardless of whether it’s for execution or for surgery, I can’t imagine the horror of feeling everything being done to me but being unable to move or scream. Meanwhile, onlookers think I’m not feeling a thing.
The fact that innocent people get the death penalty doesn't mean we have to abolish it. Innocent people get thrown in prison all the time. Should we abolish prison?
@@angelosmorfis4412 The older I get the more I realize that life isn't black and white but often grey. This is why I wrote that there are several reasons coming together in my mind why death penalty should be omitted. However the counterargument is not valid. A) Yes, innocent people are put into prison and are sentenced to death. If you didn't sentence the latter group to death, they are still in prison innocently with a life sentence instead. B) Death penalty is extraordinary in that is an irrevocable sentence comparable to other corporeal punishments like amputation. It exceeds there as with other sentences (serving time or even corporeal punishments (which I also reject)), if innocence is proven resp. guilt disproven, the wrongly convicted person can be exonerated and can be reintroduced to being free again which the person should have been all the time. After execution, any exoneration is solely a bitter reparation for relatives having lost a loved person which didn't have to die. C) Two wrongs do not make one right. There is no moral imperative to harm one group of people (wrong death sentence) because another group of comparable persons are harmed (prison sentence). Instead, the moral obligation is to better serve both groups. Prison does serve a purpose for factually guilty people but none for innocent people. This should be the goal, which I hope you agree to. There are of course several other issues like racially based execution rates, misrepresentation by mostly public defenders, questionable death sentences to people who were tested to be so low IQ that the death sentence shouldn't even have been applicable, however I think above points provide enough reason to countermand your argument.
@@angelosmorfis4412 A prison sentence isn't permanent, a death sentence is. Even a single case of an innocent person sent to death is unacceptable, the fact you even think otherwise shows you need serious help.
What about those wrongly convicted? Or what about mental health crisis that led someone to committing a crime that warrants a death penalty. What about race and other human factors that give certain people harsher penalies for the same crimes?

It’s chilling to think about the mental torment someone endures in their final moments, especially when there’s doubt about their guilt. The fear must be unbearable.
For the crimes some of them did, not brutal enough. They should be castrated, they should be tortured till their final day and their execution should be slow and painful. If the victims died in agonizing pain, so should the condemned.
Death row prisoners have to wait to long and no matter how guilty they are they still let them appeal the sentence to a higher court then another should be done within the year .
I agree. First off, the death penalty does need refining. I'm not against it. It should only be an option if it is known without a doubt the person did it. An example I give is O.J.. There was indeed a lot of circumstantial evidence against him. Nothing that positively said he did it. That being said, if someone is found guilty & given the death penalty, they have 30 days to file an appeal (they only get 1 appeal). If the new trial with a new judge & jury once again finds them guilty, the execution takes place within 30 days. There's no reason why someone should be on death row 20-30 years. That's ridiculous.
Close, but not exactly how it goes. The inmate spends his last 24h in a holding cell next to the execution chamber, not on death row. He or she is not handcuffed while escorted to the death house. Witnesses do not see the inmate walking in to the chamber. When the curtains are opened he or she is already strapped to the gurney. The executioner is in a seperate room, not visible to the witnesses.
Prisoner kept for many years, even decades in solitary confinement and then executed, even when he might be old and sick. That is so inhuman. It is torture and it is insane. How can a democracy like the USA do this to anyone in the 24th century?
I don’t know I just think that life in a cell is better for someone who did horrible acts than getting to escape to death. I also don’t really think anyone should control when another dies. It makes the state no better than the murderer…
Wait, wait, wait... You say death is better than rotting in prison so you actually want to harm the convict by oposing death penalty? Most of you pro-lifers say that you're against death penalty because it's too cruel and nobody deserves to suffer so much so that means you want to help the convict. You guys should make up your mind!

The death penalty is unevenly applied and capricious. White Americans are much less likely to be given the death penalty, unless they have committed multiple heinous crimes, and they're well known, like Ted Bundy. IMHO, the death penalty should be abolished. It may be rare for a truly innocent person to be executed, but even one is too many. Putting a criminal to death is horrendously expensive for the state. When a person is convicted of a capital crime, an entire second trial is necessary to determine if capital punishment is warranted, and once the sentence is pronounced, there are years, possibly twenty or more, of appeals. The lawyers make tons of money, the taxpayers foot the bill for at least the prosecution and usually the defense as well, since poor people are more likely to be sentenced to death. Keeping a person in jail for life costs less than the penalty phase of the trial and the first appeals. Each time an appeal is filed or denied, the prisoner gets more press coverage, and the victims' families have to suffer more. The criminal should just be sent to prison for life without parole, essentially dropped into a black hole and never talked about again until they die in prison...no TV interviews, no greedy lawyers, no fame from press coverage, no further torment of the victims' families from seeing the murderer's face on TV or newspapers.
I disagree. I support the death penalty and believe that the reason that it is unevenly applied is not because of racism but economic issues. In my opinion prison is way to good for them because they can go outside to the yard, watch tv and play cards. People always say that life in prison is the worst but I’ve seen way more prisoners fear death.
I remember watching the “Faces of Death” video . Someone was electrocuted on death row. It’s a horrible, gruesome thing to watch, let alone go through. I don’t agree with the death penalty.
i do agree with death penalty but in some cases, like terrorism and other barbarities, and the inmate suffering should be directly proportional to the suffering caused.
Death penalty stops us from having to pay for their existence. Billions and billions are spent keeping life sentence inmates alive, which is the only alternative.
It feels weird knowing that on death row, with the lethal injection, they actually care and don’t put them through so much pain. It’s nice knowing that they don’t treat them like an animal, BUT on the other hand. They had to DO something to be there.
This video assumes people on death row operate as good, functioning people. Many of these individuals are not still not remorseful, and they are still self-centered. They have not been "repenting" for the past decade.
They don't do it every day. Between now and 2026 there are 68 scheduled executions in the US. In Arizona and Alabama there will only be 1 in the next five years.
It's really scary to know that there's people who were wrongfully convicted and received the death penalty. Imagine the fear of someone who was innocent as they walk into that room.

Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained success. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion. (QURAN CHAPTER 3 verse 185)
Brother Islam is the only religion which gives the answers to this question or thought of yours
Yes there is life after death and we humans are created for a purpose as how God mentioned in his book Quran
[And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.] (QURAN CHAPTER 51 VERSE 56)
[Indeed, I am Allāh. There is no deity except Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance.] Quran chapter 20 verse 14
Brother I invite you towards islam, read the Quran atleast one time with your open heart and get answers and change before it's too late and death reaches you
Peace.

They still disinfect the needles and his arms just in case the condemned gets a stay of execution. That way, they don’t get an infection that kills them anyway.

So true, and I have a friend right now that’s due to be executed on Feb 7 in MO. He has always claimed his innocence. Idk whether he’s guilty and wasn’t there. I don’t necessarily believe in the death penalty for the reason that some people are found innocent after the fact. I feel bad about all involved, especially the family of the victims! He’s hoping for a stay but it seems very grim. He’s asking for clemency in MO. I guess we will see what happens.
I personally don't like the whole execution thing anyhow, but if it has to happen I think they should switch to nitrogen asphyxiation. It's simple, painless and pretty quick. I think you could even re-use old gas chambers, or oxygen masks.

There shouldn't be a death sentence. Some innocents have died because of this. People should instead be offered euthanasia and if they don't want it, they should get life sentences. That being said, yes I think some people have done things which they deserve to die for, but just the fact that innocent people have been killed unjustly this way should make us consider alternatives
With dna, innocents that get sentenced to death is minuscule. That’s honestly not an issue anymore
@@Alex38369 Its estimated its between 2-4%, 4% out of 2k death row inmates. Meaning its around 80 innocents out of 2000, i think.
The number of innocents on deathrow is about 2-4%, acceptable low. There are more innocent people locked up than on death row.
@@STCatchMeTRACjRo That's never acceptable.
@@corneliussmiff2773 You need to look at more logically and not emotionally. Its only ~80 innocents out of 2000 that are on death row and only 2000 got the death penalty out of 180k murderess currently locked up. so no reason its not acceptable.

I’ve heard that the needle sterilization procedures are performed in case there’s a last-minute stay of execution.
I believe no one should get the death sentence. The harshest penalty for crime should be life in prison with no possibility of parole . And leave it at that.
No way they gonna spend tax money on feeding a killer.
@@moseslalmuanpuia8988 they already do since it takes 10 -15 years for the death penalty to be carried out so what’s ur point
what the sigma
Nice vid dude,keep it up
My face expression: calm.
My mind: *internal screams*
What should not be forgotten: This video shows a ideal run-through. I absolutely reject Death Penalty, but be it as it is.
However several issues are not included in the video, starting from innocently executed (from whom several hundreds if memory serves correctly have be officially exonerated), through the issue of botched executions: Due to sourcing issues the first shot is now usually ommitted for a one or two substance solution. There are very heavy indicators that people are not put to sleep but only immobilized and suffer from an extreme feeling of burning inside for several minutes under full consciousness before dyeing. Apart from this, other issues arise like prison staff not being able to find veins due to former drug issues, prodding the person multiple times (as far as I know without anesthetic). Other bothes like injecting into muscle tissue leaving to further agony as the distribution of the drug is slowed which is not adjusted to schedule, waiting for hours on governors call to stay or to continue
I don’t agree with the death penalty either
Improper anesthesia is one of my biggest fears. Regardless of whether it’s for execution or for surgery, I can’t imagine the horror of feeling everything being done to me but being unable to move or scream. Meanwhile, onlookers think I’m not feeling a thing.
The fact that innocent people get the death penalty doesn't mean we have to abolish it. Innocent people get thrown in prison all the time. Should we abolish prison?
@@angelosmorfis4412 The older I get the more I realize that life isn't black and white but often grey.
This is why I wrote that there are several reasons coming together in my mind why death penalty should be omitted.
However the counterargument is not valid. A) Yes, innocent people are put into prison and are sentenced to death. If you didn't sentence the latter group to death, they are still in prison innocently with a life sentence instead.
B) Death penalty is extraordinary in that is an irrevocable sentence comparable to other corporeal punishments like amputation. It exceeds there as with other sentences (serving time or even corporeal punishments (which I also reject)), if innocence is proven resp. guilt disproven, the wrongly convicted person can be exonerated and can be reintroduced to being free again which the person should have been all the time. After execution, any exoneration is solely a bitter reparation for relatives having lost a loved person which didn't have to die.
C) Two wrongs do not make one right.
There is no moral imperative to harm one group of people (wrong death sentence) because another group of comparable persons are harmed (prison sentence).
Instead, the moral obligation is to better serve both groups.
Prison does serve a purpose for factually guilty people but none for innocent people. This should be the goal, which I hope you agree to.
There are of course several other issues like racially based execution rates, misrepresentation by mostly public defenders, questionable death sentences to people who were tested to be so low IQ that the death sentence shouldn't even have been applicable, however I think above points provide enough reason to countermand your argument.
@@angelosmorfis4412 A prison sentence isn't permanent, a death sentence is. Even a single case of an innocent person sent to death is unacceptable, the fact you even think otherwise shows you need serious help.

This is inhumane, but think about the horrible things the inmate did to innocent people. To get yourself in such situation, you have to be a monster.
What about those wrongly convicted? Or what about mental health crisis that led someone to committing a crime that warrants a death penalty. What about race and other human factors that give certain people harsher penalies for the same crimes?

Death row prisoners have to wait to long and no matter how guilty they are they still let them appeal the sentence to a higher court then another should be done within the year .
I agree. First off, the death penalty does need refining. I'm not against it. It should only be an option if it is known without a doubt the person did it. An example I give is O.J.. There was indeed a lot of circumstantial evidence against him. Nothing that positively said he did it. That being said, if someone is found guilty & given the death penalty, they have 30 days to file an appeal (they only get 1 appeal). If the new trial with a new judge & jury once again finds them guilty, the execution takes place within 30 days. There's no reason why someone should be on death row 20-30 years. That's ridiculous.
There's literally another video of this on Infographics, but it's 24 hours instead of one hour 😂😂

*2 minutes before execution*
“Wait, Lincoln, it’s your brother Micheal, he’s here”
The feeling you get the moment you hear a guard say ur execution is about to start that dread nervous shock
Welch einen Schock😱 erlitt sein Opfer, als es erschossen/erstochen /erschlagen oder sonstwie umgebracht wurde?
Viel viel schlimmer!😢😭
Close, but not exactly how it goes. The inmate spends his last 24h in a holding cell next to the execution chamber, not on death row.
He or she is not handcuffed while escorted to the death house. Witnesses do not see the inmate walking in to the chamber. When the curtains are opened he or she is already strapped to the gurney. The executioner is in a seperate room, not visible to the witnesses.
I cant even imagine how scary must be
Nobody deserves to die but nobody deserves to be killed too.
Prisoner kept for many years, even decades in solitary confinement and then executed, even when he might be old and sick. That is so inhuman. It is torture and it is insane. How can a democracy like the USA do this to anyone in the 24th century?
Great vid!

It’s so unfair that these monsters get to die so peacefully . Ther victims sure didn’t get that same courtesy.

Really nice vid
I don’t know I just think that life in a cell is better for someone who did horrible acts than getting to escape to death. I also don’t really think anyone should control when another dies. It makes the state no better than the murderer…
Wait, wait, wait... You say death is better than rotting in prison so you actually want to harm the convict by oposing death penalty?

Pretty cool clips!!!
The death penalty is unevenly applied and capricious. White Americans are much less likely to be given the death penalty, unless they have committed multiple heinous crimes, and they're well known, like Ted Bundy.
IMHO, the death penalty should be abolished.
It may be rare for a truly innocent person to be executed, but even one is too many.
Putting a criminal to death is horrendously expensive for the state. When a person is convicted of a capital crime, an entire second trial is necessary to determine if capital punishment is warranted, and once the sentence is pronounced, there are years, possibly twenty or more, of appeals. The lawyers make tons of money, the taxpayers foot the bill for at least the prosecution and usually the defense as well, since poor people are more likely to be sentenced to death. Keeping a person in jail for life costs less than the penalty phase of the trial and the first appeals.
Each time an appeal is filed or denied, the prisoner gets more press coverage, and the victims' families have to suffer more.
The criminal should just be sent to prison for life without parole, essentially dropped into a black hole and never talked about again until they die in prison...no TV interviews, no greedy lawyers, no fame from press coverage, no further torment of the victims' families from seeing the murderer's face on TV or newspapers.
Do you have statistics on this? Do you want to look at all the non white people who were sentenced to death and analyze their crimes?
I disagree. I support the death penalty and believe that the reason that it is unevenly applied is not because of racism but economic issues. In my opinion prison is way to good for them because they can go outside to the yard, watch tv and play cards. People always say that life in prison is the worst but I’ve seen way more prisoners fear death.
Hi thanks for sharing love the way show u vids.
I remember watching the “Faces of Death” video . Someone was electrocuted on death row. It’s a horrible, gruesome thing to watch, let alone go through. I don’t agree with the death penalty.
i do agree with death penalty but in some cases, like terrorism and other barbarities, and the inmate suffering should be directly proportional to the suffering caused.
I’d have to disagree, I think the death penalty is a god
Death penalty stops us from having to pay for their existence. Billions and billions are spent keeping life sentence inmates alive, which is the only alternative.
well maybe they shouldn't have committed a crime worthy of being on death row
@@sterlingcampbell2116 Actually the death penalty is more expensive than imprisoning someone got life.

I dont want to know when I will die but knowing you will die in an hour will be horrifying.
It feels weird knowing that on death row, with the lethal injection, they actually care and don’t put them through so much pain. It’s nice knowing that they don’t treat them like an animal, BUT on the other hand. They had to DO something to be there.
Callous would be the word,rather than caring!
Is no one talking about the prisoner in this video? Even though he comitted crimes, hes a chad for accepting his fate
If you feel sad watching this, think about people who have cancer and have some nothing wrong to deserve that slow torturing death
The infographic show hits different
This video assumes people on death row operate as good, functioning people. Many of these individuals are not still not remorseful, and they are still self-centered. They have not been "repenting" for the past decade.
Theres no way he took a shower and ate his final meal in 1 minute
how can they just casually do this everyday this is insanity
They don't do it every day. Between now and 2026 there are 68 scheduled executions in the US. In Arizona and Alabama there will only be 1 in the next five years.
