monitoring, and set them up in a rat-sized guillotine. After decapitation, the researchers observed activity for the first 10 to 15 seconds. Kongara described the EEG changes as “significant” and said her team attributed the activity to the rats’ cerebral cortices responding to the pain. The EEG activity was then followed by a termination of brain activity. “That means during this window, ‘decapitation’ can be perceived as painful by a conscious animal,” she says.
The study’s authors concluded that there is some form of brief consciousness in brain activity — at least in rats. But what does this mean for humans? Kongara says we can assume that what is painful to animals is also painful to humans, although given the fatal nature of decapitation, we’ll never be able to have humans report on their experiences. “But it is possible that the severed human heads remain conscious for some time,” Kongara says.Human decapitation is extremely rare, and even so, most likely to happen by accident in an industrial, train, or automotive accident.
