I believe mental pain is the worst
Mental Pain by far because everyone has experienced it and know that it is worse than physical pain. If your mom died that would hurt more than you would slip and break a leg
Mental by far.
I kno this...
(Also I wouldn't care if my mom died)
Pain doesn't hurt if you can block it out. If the damage it isn't severe you can just tell yourself that it's not really hurting you. Try pinching yourself with that kind of mentality.
If you cause yourself p[hysical pain (e.g. you pinch yourself) you know what it is and why it is, and it hurts less. But if someone comes up to you and just pinches you the same way & everything, it will hurt more because you are expecting it less.
Pain is an alarm system. I heard that one lady's arms were bitten off my a shark, and she felt no pain. She completely knew what was going on. Though i am slightly confused by that, it kinda meakes sense. She swam back to shore and survived. Im guessing Mental Pain then, becuz its not an alarm system.

I either just remember when I tolerated greater pain, or think about the fact that pain is pain, no more no less.
Anyways, my answer would be phyiscal pain.
I'd rather deal with the belief that my entire family has died then have a broken leg.
Then again, I don't really remember any "mental pain" in my life. I don't get very sad.
Every Physical Pain goes to the mind which becomes Mental, not like a headache but your brain is like telling you're spot to get hurt. I dunno something like that.
My mental pain, he's referring to sadness or depression...
[center]I can block out almost all physical pain, that's how I can do the stupid junk that I do.
Mental pain sucks... the effects are worse than physical, too.[/center]
I voted physical pain I would be able to stand my parents dying although I would be very sad but if I had my leg broken and my bone was sticking out of my skin I'd rather be dead.

One can lead to another.

Mental Pain can make you do stupid things.

That's not possible. It's not possible to tame your nerves, there's like billions of them, you can't control all of them, if I were to pinch myself now, I know what would be coming, when it comes, and how much it hurts, and look at it happen, but it'll still give me pain.
Pain is your nerves saying "There's something wrong here, it's damaging, MOVE DUMBASS, LOOK THIS WAY"
So if you leave your hand on a stove you'll know where your touching it and how much damage it's doing, but how much it hurts.

well i set that off for a example lol
Um, well I wouldn't know how I'd feel if my mom died. I really don't work well at feeling sadness. If something bad happens, the common thing that happens is I laugh or am suprised, but not in a bad way. I'm not big on the drama thing.
That said I said physical hurts more, but not by much. I have punched a whole in a wall and not really been hurt.
I guess I'm just a happy heartless person...

I'm not an ass though. I hope

heh...
Anyway, Farty, what you said is sick. End.
Physical. Getting your face burnt off won't equal any amount of mental pain. EVER.
Physical. Mental isn't pain at all.

Oo! Oo!
How about having your limbs torn off one by one in a torture chamber?
As Ultimo said, there's no amount of mental pain that will match that.

For some people, like me, that's true. But for others mental is way more damaging.
It just depends on how you were raised.

No it's not, just because your mom is low tempored and not annoying doesn't mean all moms are. My mom use to hit me as a kid over the littlest things
"Can I have a hotwheels"
"NO *Spanking*"
The only thing that keeps me from hoping my mom not to die is that my dad doesn't have a job, other then that, she's annoying, complaining to me all the time, yelling at me all the time, saying what a horrible son I am (compared to my sister), saying how i'm an idiot.
She pisses me off and after all that she thinks i'll try making small talk with her, she's been a bitch to me so i'm bitter to her.
ouch.
Mental pain is worse cause:
-If my face got burnt off, it would hurt yes, but then the after effects like:
:shock
:cant go into public
:hate the way you look
Mental pain is harder, since you cant really stop it, it goes away eventually. Like if you have a broken leg, no problem, take some drugs to take the pain away. but if you hate your life, then you wanan suicide, what's ganna help you? Therapy? That costs... much mroe than a broken leg....
God, I can't even think of the pain of getting my face burnt off. I cringe at the thought of it, or anyone else. If I saw that happen to someone else, man I wouldn't feel too good. I mean, if my mom died ( which I don't hope she does ) I'd probably be depressed for most of my life, but I would get over it, since that's what she taught me. No one taught me how to deal with a burnt off face. =/

Try replacing your burnt off face and let's see how fast it goes away. You'll never get it back. You can get plastic surgey, but you'll never forget that memory. Unless you have an numb face, which I doubt, it's going to hurt like hell. Especially if you survive.
Edit: Yes, I like to use the burnt off face analogy since it's a good one.
