Most people would prefer to meet their end because of old age warm in their bed. Unfortunately that isn't always the way things have worked. So I present to you this thread of torture and horrible ways to die. The Guillotine The guillotine was a device used for carrying out executions by decapitation. It consists of a tall upright frame from which a heavy blade is suspended. This blade is raised with a rope and then allowed to drop, severing the victim's head from his or her body. The Head Crusher If ever an explanation was in a name, the head crusher is it. Death by head crusher usually went something like this: the teeth imploded into their sockets and smashed the surrounding jaw bones. Then the eyes squirted from their sockets and finally, brain matter squirted from the ears. Unbelievably, many nations still use a version of the head crusher to this very day as an interrogation tool. The Cradle The Cradle was a very painful torture. The victim was placed on a long seat which at the apex contained a sharp blade. A heavy weight was attached underneath. He or she was slowly impaled. The Heretic's Fork One end of this device was pushed under the chin, the other into the sternum, with the strap securing this torture tool to the victim’s neck. Immobilized and in great pain, the victim will have to mouth off a confession, or they’ll end up being hanged or worse, burned at the stake. The Pair Hinging on your gender, the pear was either placed in your anus or your vagina in its thin form and then cranked to open up and blossom into a rather uncomfortable position. The Breast Ripper This one is self-explanatory. Many women condemned as heretics, adulterers, blasphemers had their breasts ripped out using this device.
