I believe it was a Persian method of torture/execution where they would hollow out a log and stick you in it naked then stuff a load of honey and milk in the log to let bugs and other Vermin eat you. Its called Scaphism.
Definitely not your image. Being shot in the head point blank isn't nearly a painful enough execution for the scum that was Nguyen Van Lem.
>Scaphism
>Flaying
>Sawed in half upside down so yo don't lose consciousness
>drawn out impalement
Hanged, drawn, and quartered is in the top 10 at least
What I don't understand is this. So they hang them until they're almost dead, so wouldn't the person be unconscious when they cut them up? Still it's brutal but not as bad as drawn, quartered and hanged
The one where they burn someone in a metal cow or some shit
Probably being sent to a gulag or Andersonville.
>little food
>being worked to death
>forced to work even if you are sick or injured
>kept alive to suffer as long as possible
>probably die from dysentery. starvation. heat stroke. or beaten to death.
I also heard about a guy in Cali who had pork tapeworm and had constant seizures because of it. He was forcibly institutionalized because of a false claim of abuse from a family member who abused and berated him. He said the staff there beat him everyday there and either laughed at his seizures or just said that he was faking.
This is what happens when you give a former school bully absolute power.
Forgot some

>Brazen bull
It was a quick execution so one could assume they would wait till the man was fully conscious again before moving on the the drawing step
en.wikipedia.org
"It entailed trapping the victim between two boats, feeding and covering him[a] with milk and honey, and allowing him to fester and be devoured by vermin."
what's brazen bull?
Death by a thousand cuts
This is by far one of the most disgusting.
en.wikipedia.org
Stuff you in a hollow metal bull then light a fire under it slowly cooking you inside the brazen bull
The rack is often overlooked even though it's among the most brutal forms of execution.
They could (and would) stretch [pun] the process out over a period of days. They could (and would) torture you in various other ways while you were racked.
>it's day 3 on the rack and your shoulders are past dislocated to the point where muscle and tendon is already tearing. You hands and feet are beginning to necrotize . You can barely breathe from the pressure and pain l. You wish they would just kill you already went the executioner strolls in with a flail in hand. He whips at you tearing your flesh with his rusty flail.he walks up and turns the rack another notch pulling you even tighter. Before he leaves he reaches into a bucket and grabs a handful of salt to throw on the fresh wounds....
It will still be AT LEAST another day before death releases you from this torment
came here to post this. i can't imagine being eaten by bugs
the chinese would put you in public and tie you to a log and cut off large chunks of your skin. if you were lucky a family member would feed you opioids out of the wazoo before hand so you'd OD on that or at least not feel the cutting as much. death by a thousand cuts is what it was called if i remember correctly
Guys what what was the persian method of torture with bugs? I can't remember it, I heard it recently but forgot it.
To add to this, if I remember right they'd also put out your eyes to start the process to fuel the terror.
crucifixion was pretty bad but there are definitely worse posted ITT
>tied onto a cross
>the position you're in means you can't breath without using your legs to push your body up enough to alleviate pressure on your torso
>out for hours (maybe even days but i'm not sure) being beaten, taunted, stoned, etc by everybody
>when they've had enough of you they'd break your legs with clubs so you couldn't allow yourself to breath anymore
>you'd die of asphyxiation with two broken legs after being beaten and humiliated for hours
The Sicilian bull.
Basically placed inside a hollow metal statue resembling a bull. You were cooked alive, and it had acoustics inside as well, so your screams would sound like the sounds of an angry bull to someone on the outside.
>Western
>Civilization
Pick one, and only one.
A person who was on the rack was also subject to vermin on top of everything else
living to old age as a incel while watching everyone else pair off.
