I get turned on by the thought (and thought only) of some pretty extreme torture, but still I don't see the point in talking it farther. However, I had an online exchange with a lady who said her fantasy was to be impaled on a pole, and if she had a choice on how she would die, that would be the way. The first time in my life I have been "out-kinked."

I'm not sure I've ever heard of a real life case of snuff. It seems in most cases the rapist wants the victim dead (ie ex wife, murder for hire, or plain hatred), unable to identify him, for some other purpose that requires her to be dead (canibalism or other use of body parts), or it happens unintentially (going too far with a choking, beating, etc) It seems to me at least, that the idea of death for sexual satisifaction has some appeal to our brain like many other urban legands.
