Is it possible to cut off someone's head and keep the brain alive so the head's still conscious?

Yes, it is possible to cut off someone’s head and keep the brain alive. In a medical procedure known as decapitation, an individual's head can be fully or partially removed while preserving the blood supply to the brain and allowing the brain to continue operating. The practice has historically been used for medical, religious, and political reasons, though it has been mostly abandoned in modern society due to its ethical implications.
