Waterboarding is when the victim is tied down so they cannot move and water is poured into their mouth giving the feeling of drowning. In my opinion, it is without doubt a form of torture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterboarding

Waterboarding is an interrogation technique simulating the experience of drowning. From my limited understanding I do not believe it's torture as no one is actually physically injured or in any real physical danger. Anyone trained for combat will have been taught this. It is psychologically traumatic, however.
