Actually being boiled or burned to death wont hurt as much as you would think. It would hurt badly at first, but then once you suffered 3rd degree burns, your nerve cells would be completely burned off.
Did you ever hear of the monk who self immolated to make a statement? He didn't even flinch as he burned to death, he just sat there peacefully. http://www.google.com/search?q=monk+immolation Don't limit yourself to a mold, don't think you have to conform like the rest, we all have the ability to choose our path and our journey.
Yeah, that's really common with seafood. I think it's just a cultural thing. To be honest, I really could care less. I'm not like animal rights freak or anything, I love eating animals. But it probably would suck being prepared alive. But like you say, dominant species, food chain and all that. And I just don't think that I could eat something that was still moving, but I'd definitely try it given the opportunity to know for sure.
honestly, the idea of being lost in the wilderness, catching a trout with my bare hands and taking a big bite out of it sounds so appealing, I want to try this once, maybe not with a trout but who knows.
if you eat anything - even nuts and berries, you are taking life. we are all part of the cycle of life, which includes death. someday something will eat our dead bodies too, though probably not super soon after death. dogmeat - i have a lot of friends involved in "primitive skillz" like catching fish and eating it raw. i've heard it's not as tasty, but definitely nourishing.
It's supposed to be more healthy than cooked because when you cook the fish some of the nutrition enzymes disappears due to high heat
exactly. And when you eat food that's not slathered in butter, salted to death or sugar coated, after a while, even the most bland foods flavours come out, oatmeal for instance. Stuff like fish on the other hand has such a natural sweet taste already.
Enviro Bear won't die. He is so powerful that he can choose between dying or not. And he chooses not to die. Also, legend has it that he was born with only one paw because he is so strong and powerful that he doesn't need another one.
wow really? how do you expect to keep this thread clean by singleing me out and purposely spell my name wrong? you fail
Your mother just sent this over to me, I didn't know today was your first day of school, congrats little fella!
