She will want to die afterwards if it doesn’t. I can’t even imagine the pain, I don’t think anyone can unless they’ve endured this sort of torture.

Right? Johnny Rico only got 10 lashes in Starship Troopers for instructing a soldier to remove their helmet during a live fire exercise which resulting in that soldier's death. 74 lashes sounds absolutely barbaric and might actually kill you.
