MemberThis is a bit disturbing... Q~Q

Memberi would love to be in his place.
vore is my favorite fetish.

Memberyou don't have to wait, take a dive in a pool of highly concentrated chlorine and enjoy all the burning sensation of being dissolved alive.
thingynumberone
Memberi think you mean hydrochloric acid
ChristopherWolf
MemberThe acid produced by a stomach is actually quite diluted compared to acid you can get in a lab. Stomach 'acid' only does part of the work while enzymes do the rest. It may yet provide a different sensation, but I believe it would be equally unpleasant and horrible.

MemberWhy all the downvotes? I'm not that big of a fan of gore, but the artwork is really good so why all the negative votes? :|
FoxyWilde
MemberBecause the skin-peeling-off thing is disturbing as hell and my lunch suddenly wants to make a re-appearance
EightyNine
MemberOne would think the answer to this would be fairly obvious.
ChristopherWolf
MemberIt's because the artwork is good that it gets more. Search Fauxlacine to see this phenomenon in action.

MemberTo be a stickler, bases do this, not acids! A good but sightly exaggerated simulation is in the movie Fight Club: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfDVLsBXYcM

MemberStomach acid is strong enough to dissolve zinc.
That's a metal.
Your flesh is weaker than that.
Have fun.
elad
MemberAs a few people have already pointed out, stomach acid isn't *that* strong. Need proof? Has your puke ever burned a hole in the floor? It may come as a shock, but puke is the stuff that's in your stomach.
So yeah, you could take a bath in the stuff and be fine at least for a few hours. After that you'd probably have a horrific stinging rash all over your body, and assuming you've adequate air and water, you'd eventually have a lot less skin. I don't think anyone's done a study, but you'd probably pass out from pain and drown soon after.
Most of the work is done mechanically in the stomach. The acid helps speed things up and does the detail work, but the initial problem would be stomach walls gripping you and depending on the scale, tearing off chunks or entire limbs. If you're inside something comparable to real life like a snake, lack of air is definitely gonna be what kills you.
All in all, if you manage to stay breathing and concious through the whole process, it's probably one of the most tortured, excruciating ways you could go, lasting at least a couple days, ultimately offing you from blood loss, severe nerve trauma or suffocation when acid finally breaches into your lungs.
I fap to this.
Magenta-Magic
MemberZinc is a weaker metal, and that's why it is easy to dissolve. This is also why it is provided in supplements. But yeah, your body can erode flesh. The only reason the stomach doesn't digest itself is because it has a thick lining of mucus, otherwise you wouldn't make it that long.
You can get a stomach ulcer even with this protective lining of coating, which is caused by a breach in it. It may not be powerful enough to do what is depicted in this image as fast as it does, but the stomach is still more powerful than you think.

MemberScience lessons on a porn site? Okay then.
EightyNine
MemberDo you really want me to answer that?
SirAntagonist
MemberStomach acid has pH ranging from 1.5 to 3.5.
You would most definitely not be fine.
Magenta-Magic
MemberExactly what I was thinking.
shadowslick
Memberbecause people are to pussy to add shit they don't like to there black list
ManintheArmor
MemberHow painful, especially with the eyes and ears being burned away. Then again, I don't thing hair dissolves very well. Or corn, or gum.
Magenta-Magic
MemberThe hair would just sort of fall off and float to the surface.
ChristopherWolf
MemberThat is an exaggeration in the opposite direction, but yes it is possible to touch the stuff and not get hurt.
I think both of you are overestimating stomachs. Anyone reading your comments might get the impression that touching the inside of one would cause damage in seconds. That isn't true at all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEEfJ4Qu4Eo
Crocodile stomachs are even more ferocious then human stomachs, but you can reach right into one and prod around for several minutes just fine. I wouldn't recommend bathing in one for hours though, that we can agree on.
SirAntagonist
MemberThat's a very poor understanding of the digestive system. Your stomach doesn't have a pH of 1.5-3.5. Your stomach acid does, seeing as it's HCL. Of course, it's diluted when you eat or drink anything. Also, notice how the man is putting olive oil on his arm before he reaches in. The lipids protect him from the acid, the same way mucus protects the stomach lining.
Any acid with a pH of 1.5 is corrosive to human flesh. Submerging your body in it would fuck you up. BAD.
elad
MemberFor the record, I will concede that a few hours was probably an exaggeration. Probably like an hour max?
Tell you what, next time I need to hurl and I have a bucket, I'll just leave my hand in there for ten minutes or so, let you know how it goes.
ChristopherWolf
MemberWhen I said stomach I meant everything encompassing it. Stomach acid doesn't immediately damage dense materials, which is the very reason many high energy animals, like humans, chew their food so thoroughly. We need to digest food quickly for our energy output. If stomach acid was as you say, we wouldn't even need teeth. Also, you don't seem to understand the differences in acid. Hydrochloric acid isn't anywhere near as caustic as Sulfuric acid, which is the acid many people mistakenly think of when they imagine Hydrochloric acid. People can actually touch Hydrochloric acid, even in lab settings. It takes a minute for discomfort to set in on your finger, and even then it doesn't leave a mark. "Bathing" in that for a few minutes would indeed be more damaging to a body, but I can't imagine it being worse then a large, painful rash. For that short amount of exposure, you would certainly be able to walk away from the experience, it shouldn't even approach being lethal or crippling in any way, provided you don't get it in your eyes. This is why animals can survive being swallowed if they're regurgitated soon enough. People sometimes find live things inside snakes, fish and even dogs are known to barf up smaller animals that are relatively intact.
SirAntagonist
MemberDigestion begins in the mouth, actually. There are enzymes in your saliva that break down food before it even enters the gastrointestinal system. Why do you think your lips get so chapped if you continuously lick them?
If it were purely the stomach acid doing the digestion, it would take hours and hours to digest something as small as an apple. Considering that we're talking about stomach ACID (gastric acid), not stomach contents. And HCl burns can be anything from a rash to a bone-deep burn. Sloshing your hand around in stomach acid might not do much, but soaking your entire body in it for hours would have you screaming bloody murder.
You do realize that sulfuric acid is commonly found with a pH of 1? The same pH of the pure HCl that's excreted from the stomach lining.
Lastly, "relatively intact" doesn't exactly mean "fine".

Chessax
PrivilegedI must say I found this mildly disturbing, yet fascinating.
Nice way to end the discussion.
Also I suggest watching some CSI-series, or maybe Breaking Bad to see how acid really work.
JaggleWoofle
MemberIf I may make a statement, after a short time it wouldn't hurt anymore. Your nerve endings would all die and be burned away, and suddenly you would just dissolve without feeling any pain. Till then it'd suck, and after that point you're a gonner, so..
MADVILLAIN
Memberit disturbs me more that an artist this good makes weird shit like this while i can't ev en fuckin draw a hand and this oddoe dude that wants to draw hyper gore is more talented than i'll ever be
what a time to be alive
