The shock shop table is in the shape of a cross. When McMurphy goes through all of the shock treatments for the sake of the other men, he is seen as "sacrificing himself" for them similar to how Jesus Christ was crucified for the sake of the Christians.

In "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," the crucifixion of McMurphy symbolizes his sacrifice for the other patients, his defiance against oppressive authority represented by Nurse Ratched, and his transformation into a martyr-like figure. It underscores themes of rebellion, sacrifice, and the struggle for freedom.
