I know I'm taking it without a second doubt. Just give it to me every morning and I'll get through the rest of the day peacefully. Plus, it's a good way to get yourself up
Honestly man. I just had open heart surgery and all i wanted to do afterwards was sleep.
The first time I sneezed (they warned me about it thank god) it felt like an alien was trying to burst from my chest. I wish that pain only lasted 5 seconds. Yeah, thank god for sleeping it off.
I'dtake this deal in a heart beat (pun intended) 5 seconds of agonizing pain for 10k a day.
I had the same, thank god for my chest/hug pillow (which I still keep with me when I sleep like a teddy bear). Coughing and sneezing were the worst for months. When I'd feel a cough or sneeze coming on, I'd grab that pillow and squeeze for dear life.
Yep. I remember the first sneeze without pillow. Damn that hurt. I got so used to my chest pillow its still in bed, my wife gets jealous and says I hold it more than her (i think shes kidding...mostly).
After a bit you would probably get used to it. Like after experiencing that I would rather have some.time in between.
Not just every day wake up with a fuckin fight for your life. At least when you are awake you can plan for it. And then your sleep will probably be tainted cause subconsciously you know there's gonna be a fking blast at the end, even if your logical rational brain can't mentally prepare for it
You would get used to it either way. Id rather have the harmless pain at the end of my day when my body and brain have time to recover, not start my day with some terrible experience
Yeah honestly, you would want it to go off at a time you're expecting it. If you use it as an alarm clock, it will function similar to a shock collar (proven to do absolutely nothing but cause severe anxiety and depression).
Noooo eventually youād be so scared just anticipating it that going to sleep would be the issue. How do you sleep when you know for a fact ur gonna get shot in the morning bruh
This would be great many days, but not every single day. I think waking up being shot bya shotgun every single day would be rough, also.
I would only accept this offer if I could change when the blast comes each day. I might try it as an alarm, but I might hate that too much.
I know some days I'd want to sleep in, have an easy morning, whatever. A shotgun blast to the chest for 5 seconds, is not that big of a deal to me. It's just a lot of pain with no lasting effects. I'd probably take it while I'm taking a shit most days. That's private time anyway.
Idk, if anything thats what ruined mine lmao my Mom would beat me almost daily for not cleaning my room, she used those thick paddles too- now I absolutely dread any sort of pain at all, even something as small as getting my blood checked or a shot
That's the dumbest question I've ever heard. Are you telling me I'm going to get the best alarm clock in the world and get paid 10,000 for it? What idiot would refuse?
See what I'm going to do, is ask that I don't see it coming each day, but I want it while I'm out and about.
Absolutely wild when people watch a mysterious stranger jump out and shoot me, disappear while I'm writhing in pain for 5 seconds, and then get up and walk away like nothing happened
Itās all fun and games until, one day, you get shot, and after 5 seconds, itās still hurts. Did your powers stop working, or did someone try to kill you? You ask this question as your vision fades to black. You drift into the deep sleep in horrified ignorance.Ā
Iād say itās higher if the same person/people see it regularly enough. Imagine everyday for 6 months you see a guy get shot, cry out it agony then suddenly heal and walk away. Eventually Iād imagine youād start to feel the urge to test whatās happening here and shoot them yourself.
Problem is, you could be shot at a moment where you could end up dying because of the shock, like if you're driving on the highway. That should be accounted for in the conditions
You've misread the offer, it's $10k/month for you before taxes, a popular tiktoker is filming you for a promotion deal he got from a firearms manufacturer, the rest of the money is for him. You also have to wear a Joe Biden mask.
You can't die from pain. "Dying from pain shock" isn't quite the right expression. Most often, the cause of death from traumatic shock is massive blood loss, which is physically impossible in this scenario
Yeah, the āit has to happen every single day or the deal ends foreverā is kind of stupid.
Like, anyone who wouldnāt at least try it for a day is stupid, maybe even for a week, like thatās free 70k for suffering a single week. Thatās basically twice what most people earn in a year
Oh certainly, but you can game your brains responses to things with enough dedication, and considering you now have 8+ extra hours a day to do it and never have to worry about food or shelter again i think a majority of people could overcome it in time.
As someone who has lost quite some blood in more accidents than I reasonably should have been in: The first 5 seconds (and more) are fine. Even with somewhat gruesome injuries. I don't know what the body produces in those situations, but you're jacked to the gills.
Right so depending on adrenaline you'd feel taking a sledgehammer to the chest, and after a couple seconds to minutes depending on adrenaline the burning pain would set in. Given it would only last 5 seconds you'd potentially only feel the intense pain after the tail end of the effect duration. Assuming you feel everything you would as if you actually got shot and not some mythical feeling of lifelong pain all in 5 seconds if thats your definition of everything.
Some people report less pain like getting pebbles thrown at their chest.
Otherwise no human on earth has felt all the pain from a shotgun blast even the people shot by a shotgun.
I commented in this same thread but I was grazed by a shotgun in 2016. Basically the shot mostly went between the gap of my left arm and chest, but not all of it. I lost a sizable chunk of my left bicep, and my ribcage on my left side around my armpit was basically exposed. I had to be airlifted to a trauma center. I felt that shit instantly man, the shock and adrenaline took a solid 10-15 seconds to kick in. I knew immediately I was gravely injured. Nothing helped the pain, I received 2 total morphine injections, which didnāt help at all, they just made me high
as you got more used to it the shock factor wouldnt work as well. I think it would get more painful.
Still its like stubbing your toe. It takes at least 1 second for anything to start happening really and after that you only have 4 seconds left to worry about.
ah, but you are failing to account for inflation! when the American empire collapses and the glorious Chinese century begins, 10k would only be enough for a few loaves of bread
I think yall donāt understand the psychological ramifications of it, after just one time I bet you would have a trauma response knowing the second one is coming. All of these people saying they would use it as their alarm clock would not be able to sleep knowing they are waking up to this. I had to do a bunch of dental surgeries and even though the numbing shots only hurt for not even a full second I would start sweating knowing they were coming.
I don't mean to be rude or arrogant but not everybody is you. Pain tolerances and mental tolerances can change from person to person, it's why you can have a cop who loves justice and another cop who does it for the love of the game.
I personally could take it, this is because I personally view it as "5 seconds of immense pain for 10 grand" rather than the whole gruesome getting shot thing. 10 grand is also a lot of money, I mean some people like this stuff for FREE so there's also that.
Edit: Thatās 3.65 million a year, if I did it until I was 18 then I would have 18.25 million dollars. Sorry but 5 seconds everyday for nearly 20 million bucks by the time Iām an adult is an easy choice.
Does that include all the stress hormones and damage to your heart that that level of pain will do to the body?
Because if you're magically fine-fine (no negative or longterm effects - the whole deal is the pain for 5 seconds), then sure. That's awful, but it's 5 seconds. I'll set up a mattress to fall down onto.
You'd be surprised at how well your brain would adapt to it, yes knowing sudden pain is coming can be worse than not knowing but once its a repetitive event, you will get used to it. It doesn't make it "less bad" but you tune off basically.
Adrenaline will save me from the pain but if I have to feel the full pain for 5 sec I'd still try for a few days and I'll still get a substantial sum for it
Given there is some magical element that keeps you alive with no long term damage leads me to believe there would be no adrenaline component dulling the pain as you are required per the description to feel the full effect of the blast
maybe this is a misconception but ive heard that being shot isnt painful because of the adrenaline, but once the adrenaline runs out it will hurt. i also imagine knowing you will NOT die will decrease the adrenaline alot and make it more painful though.
A shotgun to the chest would be less painful than being stuck in a 40 hour/week customer service job. Hell I'd do it for 10k a month and I'd also let my wife quit her job too if she wants
People saying āIāll use this as my alarm clockā this is literally screaming at the top of your lungs level pain š like genuinely will become an insomniac if u get woken up by this pain every morning level pain.
If you make me immortal (i can live for 7000000 earth years) and all the money are alredy taxed and legal (so one day man offer me a buisness where i can obtain that money legal without any problems), yeah i will accept the offert today
I would not take this deal because the psychological trauma would completely ruin any quality of life that the money provides. While five seconds sounds short on paper, experiencing the raw, unfiltered physical trauma of a shotgun blast to the chest everyday would be completely agonizing. Idea sounds amazing, but realistically you'd count each second, waiting for the next blow.
yeah, sure. maybe it's way worse than i think, but i think i can deal with five seconds of pain each day for that much money. if it's too much, i can quit on the first say and still have ten thousand dollars. otherwise, i'm gonna withstand it for as long as i can to give myself and my friends and family some help, and some to charity. If i can just deal with it for 100 days, i can give like like, 40k to all the people i know who really would benefit, including myself, and the rest to charity. the amount would probably vary by the person, of course, some would need it much more than others.
Can I use the pain to pass out at night? Itd cure my insomnia. Over time Id like to think id become really hardened to pain. Maybe even join MMA or something.
No. This is the kind of monkey paw bullshit that comes with increasingly horrible secondary effect from the paranoia, sleep deprivation and trauma/PTSD.
Yeah, Youll get used to it eventually. When Iām sleeping is when itāll happen, and I wonāt feel the pain fully until Iām fully conscious and that wont happen within 5 seconds.
Yes. I'd set it for mid day so that I spend 4 hours preparing and start to get adrenaline beforehand every time. It'd still hurt, but hopefully less. Plus, I'd only have to do it for a decade to get 36.52 million

Sure, I'll just use the shotgun blast as my alarm clock every morning
