A method to cause maximum pain to a human

+0
−0

I am currently searching for a new execution method to be used in my fictional psychotic dictatorship. After introducing methods such as decompression, boiling, surgical torture (being dissected alive without anesthesia) or slow dissolution in acid, the dictator is still not satisfied, saying that "the full potential of the human body to feel and endure pain is not used".

The new execution method should meet the following requirements:

  • Cause pain that is as strong as possible, if possible the maximum pain that can be perceived by a human.

  • Prolong this pain to the longest time possible.

  • Prolong the sanity of the condemned person to at least 3 hours - e.g. the person subjected to the execution method should not go crazy and be fully able to feel the pain for at least 3 hours. Consider pausing the torture if the subject falls unconscious and/or injecting him with stimulants or light painkillers before resuming the procedure.

  • Be an effective deterrent against undesirable actions. Feel free to make it gory and make the subject scream in despair - the executions will be aired on TV.

Please stick to modern or near future technology and biologically plausible. Anything ranging up to high-tech torture robots that back up their victims with stimulants if they feel unconscious is acceptable as long as no magic or other processes or systems that defy the laws of physics and biology are included.

Creative solutions such as using nanorobots are encouraged.
