I recently saw a film called Infamous in which there is a very graphic hanging scene, that was bad enough but at least I knew it was just acting. This was not only real but was also a man we have all 'known' for years and years.

that, among other reasons, is why I will not watch the video of the execution. I know it would haunt me - seeing a real killing..no matter how evil the man I can't sit and watch someone's death like that...
