No one can prove how it feels to really die. They can get close but if someone’s brain shuts down, that’s it and you can’t get answers from them.
Pain on the other hand is mostly manageable and provable with medicine and monitoring how the body reacts. Most ‘painless’ methods involve those things. Drug them up and induce a brain shut down. Sometimes these execution methods fail and they really are in pain. Sometimes they freak out because they are aware of what is happening.
It’s not perfect but other examples exist like massive injuries (like decapitation) where depending on how it happened were also likely painless.
