Niedermann and the taser
I'm curious. Niedermann apparently can't feel pain and all that. But wouldn't he still be affected by the taser?
I mean, his muscles would still be spasming and he would have no real control over them... he just wouldn't feel the pain of it.
Are they suggesting that if you can't feel pain you are somehow immune from electrocution?
I mean, his body is still being injured... he just lacks the bodies natural alarm mechanism to tell you so, namely pain. The more extensive the injury, the more pain impulses your body send to the brain to inform it. Painkillers stop that signal reaching the brain so you don't feel it.
But if I was being tasered and I couldn't feel pain, I'd still be writhing on the floor... it just wouldn't be writhing in pain. It would be writhing because I cannot control my muscles whilst the taser is attached.
