And We Thought Waterboarding Was Bad!
We Humans have a very keen mind when it comes to making the lives of our fellow humans miserable… Here are various methods of torture we’ve come up with over the centuries… It’s interesting to note that some of these methods are said to be still in use.
20. Punishing Shoes
The shoes were often used in conjunction with the standing pillory (a device that holds your head and wrists in place while you stand). How long do you think you could stand on your tippy-toes before you had to rest your heels on those iron spikes?
19. Heretic’s Fork
The four sharp points snugly nestled under the chin and sternum were designed to allow the victim just enough range of motion with his mouth to murmer a confession.
Wanna to see the other 18?.. Really?!? You Sick Puppy!!
