The Agony Component.

Go to CruxDreams.com
As to agony, I am wondering about one simple task: Did victims cry, scream and moan all the time until total exhaustion?

Is it possible to get used to the pain of crucifixion in the run of time? I have read that the scale of agony and speed of exhaustion depends as well on the position of crucifixion. I have read that breathing is not that much bothered if the victim is crucified with highly bent knees. Is that true? Is it possible that in such settings the victim even falls asleep?

I feel not attracted by pictures showing bodies that already had been badly injured by scourging.

Greatings to all
 
perhaps the victum was nailed through the side of the foot to the side of the cross, but was able to stand on something-maybe a small stand on each side of the cross. the victums feet could be tied to make it easier to stay on the stand. they could lock their knees allowing a longer ride.

Hey Everyone:

I was fortunate enough to have Apostate mention this site to me a few weeks back, otherwise I would never have known it existed. For those who do not know me, I've been posting my crux artwork on the various crux-related sites since 2002. I'm the artist behind Petra's Ordeal, the Nynia series and other renderings you may have seen. I haven't done a crux pick in over a year and Nynia pick in three years, but I am back is is my favorite redhead.

Attached are my two new renderings, "Nynia Crucified" and "Nynia Appian Way."

I'm glad to be a member of this forum. Your comments are welcommed and greatly appreciated.
 
Could be, "lawyer in NY City" matches his profile with his current blog and website,
but if so he seems to have gone vanilla,
blogging on about the joys of fatherhood and publishing very soft porn (teenage vampires, haughty princesses etc).

hear what a crucified slave told:
It’s part of the torture of crucifixion that the man has to keep struggling to fight the asphyxia, and it forces him to move and strain. In essence, he is forced to actively participate in his own torture. According to the slave, it’s the worst part of Crucifixion, the continual movement and struggle. He said that a steady, continuous pain can be adapted to, that after a while the mind accepts it. But, he said, Crucifixion is a continual series of different, changing pains, as the victim struggles on his cross. He can’t just hang there, he has to endure the cycles of cramps and asphyxia, as well as strain to lift to breathe occasionally. The slave told me that his mind was drawn to each new surge of pain. For example, when he sagged back to hanging by his wrists the twisting of the nails would wrack him with agony, and his mind would fixate on his nailed wrists, until his renewed cramps in his chest caused him stabs of pain, which would draw his attention to them, and there it would stay until some new pain grabbed his attention. At first, he said he could think of other things, but as he suffered his mind began, more and more, to dwell only on his pains. He said that when it did, time seemed to freeze, and that it seemed like he was suffering that forever.(from crux story "justice of Rome"
