Well, if you had nails put through your hands/wrists and feet then hauled up by said nails after getting flogged and beaten to the extent you need someone to help carry your method of dying, I don't think you'd give two shits whether you were going to see the world afterwards or not. There is a difference between getting shot and getting held up by nails.
Or to put it more simply, if you had to cut your testicles in half with a blunt, rusty razor in the knowledge that they would grow back after you'd finished mutilating them, would you care about whether or not you were cutting them in the first place?
