The most grotesque chemical weapon?

Question

What chemical weapon leaves the most hideous corpses?

thanks

Answer 1

I would think VX would be the worst case scenario, but then again so would Phosgene.  I've seen some abhor simulations of what those stuff can do while attending this NBC course awhile back.  VX is a 'nerve agent' that is odorless and can spread quick!  There are many lethal types of chemical weapons, nerve, blood, and blister agents for example.

NOTE: Concerning about the movie, "The Rock", a p**s-poor example!  You DO NOT inject 'Atropine' into the heart!  That is utterly stupid and deadly!  Only prevention or treatment is Atropine and Pralidoxim (they issued kits to servicemembers while going to Iraq back during the Invasion).  And you inject it into a major blood stream, preferrable farthest from the heart, like you inner thigh.  Pralidoxim lowers your heartrate, whereas Atropine speeds up your heartrate.  You have to take both, if you take one or the other, you will increase your chances of death.

Answer 3

All of them.

Answer 4

Mustard Gases are the most gruesome looking because they cause biols to form all over the body that burst. Its one of the worst ways to die since 2-24 hours with just skin irritation you start to biol up vomiting all over yourself biols forming. When you die your just a giant ball of oily fluid. Other chemical weapons just destroy your lungs mustard destroys your entire body. Just remember trench warfare in ww1 they were killing thousands with it and thats why the stuff was baned by ww2 because it was SO HORRIBLE!

symptoms for mild dose

-* Severe skin, eye and mucosal pain and irritation

    * Skin erythema with large fluid blisters that heal slowly and may become infected

    * Tearing, conjunctivitis, corneal damage

    * Mild respiratory distress to marked airway damage-

Answer 5

Blister Agent.

Answer 6

When I was in the service they trained us on this stuff from the cold war called blister agent. Pretty much if you get it on you and it goes untreated your body starts to get blisters which pop and make more blisters evuantaully they get on your face get into your mouth and into your lungs and then you drown on your own fluids. Never came in contact with anything like that but it sure scared the h**l out of us.

Answer 7

Define chemical weapon...Napalm is a burning chemical and a burnt body is probably about as hideous as you can get. If you are talking strictly chemicals no fire then I would say nerve gas. If you have ever seen the movie The Rock its actually a great example of what nerve gasses can do to the human body.
