Some kind of body would be necessary for that. It's going to hurt.
I guess you were converted by a Jehovah's Witness perhaps.
There are two deaths a human can experience according to the Bible; the white death (in which they die to sin) and the final death in which they wait for resurrection. The unsaved are given a body, and thrown into Gehenna.

Not for all eternity. And Gnashing of teeth represents anger.
And no, I'm not Jehovah's witness, I'm "Christian" (An offshoot of the Church of Christ but we are not a capella only).
There are two deaths. The first death is the death of the body. The second is the death of the person in the body. That's why it's called "death". Immortality is the domain of the saved only.
This is a great explaination. I call it the "goldilocks" version. Not too simple and not too verbose. If you want verbose, read Edward Fudge.
