Mustang posted:The way they were taught to kill it was to place a stick over it's head on the ground, stand on the stick to either side of its head and then grab it by the feet and then yank the body upward to decapitate it. Can't remember if he said anything else about dressing the chicken. We were taught just to pull its head straight off, then dip it in water so it's easier to de feather. Then remove innards like you would any poultry before cracking it open like butterfly chicken. Instructor also showed us how to 'hypnotise' the chicken by drawing a line in the dirt in front of it. Highlight of the class was someone wanting to kill the chicken in accordance with the Koran, cue him trying to slit its throat with the bluntest knife ever seen, no amount of hypnotism made that chicken calm down.

First off it wasn't part of a full SERE course it was an 'interest' lesson by a guy who'd spent all his time in Belize as a jungle warfare instructor. The chicken killing bit was pretty straightforward he just said this is the best way to do it and popped it's head off. Don't think he even twisted just pulled it clean off ; to be fair that seemed to work. The dunking it in water he said made it easier to pull the feathers out, but having tried both it didn't seem to help just meant you were pulling wet clumps out instead of dry. The thing he did hypnotising them seemed like a bit of a sideshow, like he'd seen it done and just wanted to show us. He planted the the chicken down and held it there whilst it struggled, then he just drew a line in the dirt with his finger and it starts watching him, after he does it a few times it just goes calm and lies there still looking at the line in the ground, (that was about the time he pulled its head off). The last bit was after the demo when it was our turn and one guy said he could only eat the chicken if it was halal, he said he had worked in his dad's butchers and knew how to do it so it would be fine. The instructor wasn't too happy but what's he going to do, he decided to spin it into a sort of extra learning experience tells everyone to watch so we know how to do it. Guy pulls out a lovely Swiss army knife knock off and holding the chicken upside down just starts haphazardly sawing at its neck. Thing loses it's poo poo and starts making hosed up noises, escapes his grasp and flaps around dying for a few minutes before getting it's head pulled off. I don't think I would be much better in a survival situation or working at a halal butchers after this.
