    B, you’re trying to sever the brain from the body, not the neck

      Also Argentinasauruses are like worms. If you leave too much of the neck attached it’ll survive and grow a new body.

    As a French, I can offer my expertise on Guillotine executions : it’s B

    I’d go with B for obvious reasons

      It’s far from obvious

      I’d bisect the neck

      No way, I’d go for A. Wouldn’t want that long neck wriggling about after the cut.

        Why not just use two guillotines so you can do a and b. Best of both worlds.

          Who the heck has the budget for 2 guillotines??

          It’s clearly B. If you ever needed to put that head on a pike to send a message, you wouldn’t want to carry that big neck around.

    Maybe it depends where you would cut a human head of? In either way here is the skeleton of a Argentinosaurus:

      I do believe that Argentinosaurus has cancer between the 23rd and 24th vertebrae. They might want a second opinion.

      Alright! Now we can really start diving in. Would the gaps between vertebrae get larger at the base of the neck compared to the base of the skull? I’d imagine those thick bones could pose a problem for a guillotine blade.

      That looks like a way too small heart for such a huge body. It looks only about 3-4 times bigger than human heart

        Wasn’t there a significantly higher concentration of oxygen 65 million years ago or something? That might make it easier for big things to get enough oxygen for aerobic processes.

        I don’t know shit about fuck with chemistry and biology it just sounds right

    B but I also wouldn’ use that guillotine, I’d use the 300ton one that the US government has for decapitating B52s

    I would say B. Also, you would need a bigger basket for the head to fall into and probably a few more people on hand if you wanted to lift the head up to display to the crowd.

    A because its a smaller one and therefore easier to decapitate.

    I feel weirdly uncomfortable with both and I would choose c) in the middle of the neck And I am not sure how to view you as a human being if your perception differs
