    It has even been documented that human heads have been observed rolling eyes, and mouths reciting prayers while the head was in the basket at the guillotine.
    Well, I was not going to mention it before as it's kind of gruesome, but that is PRECISELY the reason that immediately following decapitation I completely crush the head with a blunt object. Otherwise, the head lives on for many minutes.

    I use dry ice to put down mice and rats; it displaces the oxygen thus a quite sleepy death. Less traumatic.
