Best Answer

The removal of the brain results in the fastest death. Although there are many ways of facilitating death (shooting, poisoning, infection, gassing etc), all deaths are the result of full loss of brain function.

Loss of brain function can occur from:

- direct damage to the brain: infection, disease or trauma such as shooting or crushing; or

- loss of oxygen to the brain: blood loss via injury or shock, blockage to vessels, failure to pump oxygen (heart failure or poisoning).
