Crazy Until The End: Texas Inmate Yells "That Is Awesome!" During His Lethal Injection

A Texas inmate put to death for murdering a man over a decade ago, had some interesting final words. Richard Cobb, was executed via lethal injection Thursday (April 25), and called the experience "awesome" right before he died.

Having already confessed to using a 20-gauge shotgun to kill 37-year-old Kenneth Vandever, Cobb must have had a clear conscious about his own demise. Either that, or he's totally insane.

When asked of his final words, the prisoner tried to be philosophical."Life is death, death is life. I hope that someday this absurdity that humanity has come to will come to an end," he said. "Life is too short. I hope anyone that has negative energy towards me will resolve that.

"Life is too short to harbor feelings of hatred and anger. That's it, warden."

Oh, but Cobb had more to say. Instead of lying quietly, the 29-year-old started yelling about how great it was to be lethally injected. "Wow!" he exclaimed while the victim's family witnessed the ordeal. "That is great. That is awesome! Thank you, warden! Thank you (expletive) warden!"

He was pronounced dead 15 minutes later.
