Hook suspension... no pain.

For years, the (practicing and well r/l-network embedded) sadomasochist in me was impressed watching female friends hanging from hooks...
...until that sad day when I did my own first hook suspension.

The executing play partner was right: After he and his assistant (my girl friend) had pulled the hooks through my skin, it would just burn very shortly - and then the pain was gone!

Indeed, people (writers) from the past, who lived in a society with pain being more common (no painkillers and such!) have written correctly about crucifixion: Once the nails are in and stressed (weight), that pain will vanish. The only chance creating some is to hurt bone structures (fasciae etc.), so a reaction will follow (e.g. due to sprain) that hurts. Constantly pulling or pushing a nail in flesh will most certainly feel numb - like the hooks in shoulders, breasts etc. while hanging from them. The author described ropes as more painful in the long run (due to ongoing necrosis in cut-off hands).
It is quite comparable with impalements or skewering: When I had needles, skewers etc through my breasts (e.g. deep behind nipples)/buttocks, then they looked rather exciting, but did not hurt (max. you feel after inserting many is tickling).
Last but not least, when experiencing crucifixion with very painful sediles, then I sometimes exceeded my pain thresshold: That means, you do not feel many tortures - e.g. biting clips etc. become too little in pain, so you calmly notice them.

Maybe, today's folks know little about pain and their bodies' reactions to it (except masochists).

Semingly the agony of crucifixion comes from a painfully stretched body, overall burning (after whipping) and generally the infection (be it after nailing and/or whipping); a state of great misery and pain - not so much focussed on nails. Those seem to be more visually impressive aspects of a crucifixion - which is why I would not miss them.
 
I agree Cruzifer - also I think, whether nailed or tied, the hands, wrists and forearms would soon lose all feeling, the pain would be increasingly concentrated in the shoulders and chest.

This issue is very interesting. I have assumed in the first place, that due to the shock when wrists and feet are penetrated, the victim still has some control over his body. But then, after a while, gets dragged away by pain.
If it's the case that arms and legs get numb after some time, enlightens the crucifixion from a completely different perspective. That fact would enhance the ability of the dying to communicate with each other and the spectators over a much longer time span. To a point it would keep up the excitement of the execution, and engage the spectators more actively.
I love the idea.
 
Well, if they were hanging limp, and/or struggling and 'dancing',
I think they'd pretty soon be fighting for breath, finding it painful to breathe, never mind speak.
There's debate (here and in books, websites etc.) as to whether death would have been caused by asphyxiation,
the lungs simply giving up - but the chest muscles would be under enormous strain.
On the other hand, if the feet and/or groin were supported, the strain would be less,
and the condemned ones might have been able to take in what was going on,
speak, even shout to each other - as of course happens in the biblical accounts.

But do not forget the median nerves situated in the wrists and shattered ankle bones permanently irritated by square nails.. If you hang motionless, you may accommodate to the pain, but you must permanently dance upwards and downwards and writhe your body because of cramps and asphyxiation.
 
Here are some from previous role play's. Hope you enjoy! Love Possum
