Atheists: would proof of the resurrection matter to you?

In the case of crucified people I doubt there was any medical examination, if they stopped moving they were dead.

And even then, they didn't take them down for burial.  That would defeat the whole purpose.  If the Romans just wanted to kill someone they did understand how to do it cheaply and effectively with a single sword thrust.

You don't have this shoved into your chest
