Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well, yeah.

But I mean that, splitting all the nerves can actually kill a person on it's own.

I, um...

Pain = touch.

You can't just "cut" the nerves that feel pain, all of them technically feel pain, whether or that's a good feeling or a bad feelings.

As far as feeling temperature is concerned, I'm pretty sure that, that's controlled by the same nerves that sense pain but, your brain registers temperature slightly differently, in some cases.



Basically, their all the same nerve, and you can't isolate just one them.



Perhaps pain conditioning can be a good idea, or, even pain, temperature conditioning.

I've been temperature conditioning for quite some time now and...

I fell into the water while kayaking, what should have made me freezing cold, but, I was fine, and even when I dried off and got back and all that I was fine.

I'm not amazing or anything...

But this one guy ran up the Himalayan mountains in like, nothing but his underwear and shoes, and he also was able to stay in the water for 30 minutes before even reaching signs of the onset of hypothermia, were most people would have gotten hypothermia in about 5 minutes.

Actually, you can isolate them. There are people, like my youngest nephew, who don't feel pain, but can feel. Obviously there's something with his nerves that doesn't allow the sensing of pain, but does let him know when he's touching things.

Well he's 4, so it's not any of those things. I'm not saying it would be easy, just that it's possible. And if the brain is capable of not registering pain, then it is possible to make it do so surgically.

Herm... decreased metabolism + high altitude training is a start, but...

What would be great would be high artificial gravity training, like I.E. bumping it up to around 2 G's. Got any ideas?

Damn. For natural enhancements, exercise + replicated high altitude training + increased gravity + growth hormone would equal huge physical enhancements.

I mean, the spetsnaz trained their people for 5 years; in two, I could theoretically have people who are extremely strong super human like people.

You would slowly ramp up the gravity until it was at like 2G, in which they would exercise and run normally. Then, you would also decrease the amount of oxygen, and possibly decrease the temperature; you might even regulate the caloric intake.



Not only would they become stronger from exercise, but the slowly increased gravity and harsher environment would force their body to grow in response.

Through slow conditioning, possibly a few hundred days, or even a year, you would hopefully have these people lifting the same weights and running at the same speed and the like, or more, under these new conditions.

Then, you would slowly decrease it, and by the end of it, they would at least be two times stronger, as well as be able to jump higher, run faster, have more endurance, etc.



That would pwn.

Although you would need to do it all in space.

O_o

The point of about it being in outerspace is so that you can increase the level of gravity.

We can create artificial gravity in a gravity less environment.

So, theoretically, their bone density should increase.

Which was part of the point of putting them into outerspace.
