“Virtually painless”?

Did you volunteer to test that theory out?

“Dying of dehydration is euphoric.”
“Unborn babies don’t feel pain when ripped limb from limb.”

IIRC, research shows that dying from an arrow wound is analogous to falling asleep and not waking up.

The pain receptors/generators are located on the surface of the skin, not deep inside the body, therefore the only pain felt is the initial pain of entry. Since we are talking about razor-sharp blades, the pain is minimal - if you have ever cut yourself with a sharp knife you will know what I'm talking about.

The point of my post that deals with this issue is the point regarding not immediately tracking an animal that is shot with a bow. Tracking one immediately will cause greater stress and pain to the animal than if you wait for the animal to die to track it.

“Dying of dehydration is euphoric.”
“Unborn babies don’t feel pain when ripped limb from limb.”

I don't believe I discussed either of these issues - so why would you post them to me?
