- Some prisoners had horse urine injected into their kidneys.
- Some prisoners were deprived of food and water to determine the length of time until death.
- Some prisoners were placed into high pressure chambers until death.
- Some prisoners were exposed to extreme temperatures and developed frostbite to determine how long humans could survive with such an affliction, and to determine the effects of rotting and gangrene on human flesh.
- Some experiments were performed to determine the relationship between temperature, burns and human survival.
- Animal blood was injected into some prisoners and the effects of this studied.
- Some prisoners had lethal doses of x-ray radiation administered.
- Gas chambers tested various chemical weapons on some prisoners.
- Air bubbles were injected into some prisoners’ bloodstreams to simulate a stroke.
- Sea water was injected into some prisoners to determine if it could be substituted for saline.
I once had a book about the atrocities committed by unit 731. It was a paperback almost 2 inches thick with small text.
They were evil people.
What would be the purpose of injecting horse urine into the kidneys?
How else would we know the effects of these things on humans? whats the problem?
There was one detail that explained how some prisoners had ther stomaches removed, and their esophagus attached directly to their intestine.
You forgot to post the test where they had a steam powered machine in front of a restrained prisoner with both hands tied to 2 rotating mechanical arms that would quickly slide the prisoner’s hands over their face in succession.
With a record playing in the background in Japanese’s with the words ???? ?? ???? playing over and over.
Roughly translated into “Arrest self hate”
Or, quit hitting yourself, quit hitting yourself quit hitting yourself ect….
@Cynic… I hope your kidding. If you really want to know what’s wrong with it, ask the jews from the holocaust
and @Annon… work on your delivery mac ;)
You, er, missed all the plague infection of pregnant women to see how it’d affect the unborn foetus etc.
I would like to visit the buildings, though.
Nope. im not. So killing someone is fine in war, but killing them slowly is different. How is a bullet different than a test? In one way, we learn something, the other we dont. War teaches us nothing because we continue to have them.
@Emory… His name _IS_ Cynic… :-)
And promoting the story of how insane a group of assholes were helps people how?
In war there are those that create the idea of killing, those that direct the killing, those that do the killing and behind the scenes there are ALWAYS those that find other ways of killing.
Which part is sane? Not a damn one of them – for ANY reason.
“others, who surrendered to the Americans, were granted amnesty in exchange for access to the data collected by them.”
