Most Brutal And Horrific Form Of Execution In The Acient History. - Education

Consider yourself lucky if you are reading this, you most likely not to have lived in a society with extreme judgements, sentences, and punishments. Back in the good old days if you did something wrong, for example stole a goat, chicken, Adultery, you were pretty much assured being handed a death sentence. In those days there was no hanging around on Death Row, contemplating the errors of your ways whilst waiting for some form of humane, painless death. Executions in the ancient history seems to be so barbaric and devices used were built with careful engineering to push the guilty to feel extreme and prolonged pain before death. The forms of execution listed below really are so barbaric that you might question your faith in human nature. Blowing from the gun. With the invention of the cannon came this wonderfully imaginative way of executing enemy combatants. The basic method was to tie the unfortunate victim to the barrel of a cannon and fire it. Horrific as this sounds I imagine it w...

"Mary the Elephant's Heart-Wrenching Execution: A Homeless Man, A Circus Tragedy, and a Town's Fury in 1916"



On September 11, 1916, a homeless man named Red Eldridge was hired as an assistant elephant trainer by the Sparks World Famous Shows circus. His only job role was knowing how to use an elephant stick (literally a sharp spear). The day after he was hired, the circus announced a show in the town of Kingsport , Tennessee , featuring an elephant parade.Tragedy occurred when Mary the Elephant went on a rampage: while she was nibbling on a watermelon rind, Eldridge tried to keep her in line by prodding her behind the ear with a hook. Onlookers - stunned and helpless - watched as she grabbed Eldridge with her trunk, threw him against a drinks stand and stomped on his head, crushing it.Within minutes, the local blacksmith who thought she had gone mad shot her 5 bullets, but to no effect. Some spectators then began to chant: " Kill the elephant! Let's kill him ." Meanwhile, the mayors of several nearby towns threatened not to allow the circus to visit if Mary attended the show. So the circus owner, Charlie Sparks, decided that the only way to resolve the matter quickly was to kill the elephant in public.

The next day, September 13, 1916, Mary was transported by rail to Unicoi County , Tennessee , where a crowd of over 2,500 people (including most of the town's children) gathered at the Clinchfield rail yard.It took 2 attempts to kill the elephant, who trembled as he waited as if he already knew what was about to happen. Using not a rope, but a chain, the men tied her to a crane and attempted to lift her. However, the first attempt ended in a broken chain, causing Mary to fall off her feet and break her hip while dozens of children fled in terror. The seriously injured elephant died during a second attempt and was buried near the tracks.A veterinarian examined Mary after the hanging and determined that the creature had a badly infected tooth in the precise spot where Red Eldridge used to prod her. The animal had only responded in kind, following her instincts , and for this alone she had been lynched alive by a bloodthirsty mob.

ISIS executes man with bazooka.

Horrific video has emerged online showing ISIS savages purportedly executing a young man with a bazooka. The footage was posted Thursday by a Syrian activist group, Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently. The clip, which is about 2½ minutes long, shows the prisoner exploding in a ball of flames as his Islamic State executioners blast their guns in the air and cheer in celebration. The man is said to be Ibrahim Shraideh, a member of the Al Shaitat tribe from the town of Abu Hamam in Syria’s Deir ez-Zor province.  He was captured and killed on charges of waging war against ISIS, according to the activist group. The bloodthirsty jihadis who put Shraideh to death are said to be from Tunisia and Morocco. The execution video is believed to have been shot Wednesday, the group said. When the clip begins, things appear calm as one of the ISIS militants chit-chats with Shraideh. Suddenly, the long-haired radical leans down, picks up a rocket-propelled grenade and begins angrily ranting. Moments...

How often did the Romans have sex?

Romans were pretty open about sex. Their society wasn't as prudish as later Western societies became. They had a relaxed attitude toward sex, seeing it as a natural part of life. For instance, it was common for Roman homes to have erotic art, and even the city of Pompeii, frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, reveals walls adorned with some pretty explicit murals. But how often? Well, it varied. Elite Romans, who had more leisure time, probably engaged in sexual activities more frequently. They often had banquets and gatherings that sometimes turned into wild parties known as convivia. These weren't just your average get-togethers; they could involve a lot of drinking, feasting, and yes, sometimes sexual escapades. Interestingly, there's a lesser-known story about a Roman named Gaius Petronius, who was a member of Emperor Nero's court. Petronius wrote the Satyricon, a satirical novel that gives us a peek into the indulgent lifestyles of the Roman elite. One ...

Half-Naked Women Advertise Funeral Service In ‘Tasteless’ Video

  Video Instagram/honorim.ruA Russian funeral home has taken a somewhat unconventional approach when it comes to advertising their services, using half-nude women to promote final resting ceremonies “for all categories of citizens” on social media. Honorim.ru released a 42-second clip which many are calling “tasteless and offensive,” but many people are pretty intrigued. The clip shows lingerie-clad women in stripper heels posing on and around coffins. One of the women even jumps inside and writhes around while another posed sexily with her leg atop the casket. It’s… something else. In a separate part of the ad, one of the women wearing a thong kneeled on top of the casket with her bum in the air while another did a backbend inside of the coffin with one leg in the air. I’m not sure the message it’s trying to convey! There were some confusing parts of the ad as well.In one section, some pantsless women posed in hoodies, though it’s unclear if they were advertising the clothing...

Pata Seca; Meet Slave Whose Only Duty Was To Have Sex With Women To Procreate

Slaves were known to be priced possessions of their owners who mainly were used for hard labour especially on farms and other labourous areas of enterprise. It's a known fact that slavery contributed significantly to the development of the Western nations and some of the upcoming developed countries like Brazil and the likes. While I will not waste time to take you on History class or lessons, stumbled on a name and story that looked like fiction yet a true life and historical figure in Brazil. Pata Seca was a black slave in Brazil in the late 1880s, while there are varying versions of his story and biography one thing remained constant. That Pata Seca was a slave who didn't work on any farm, factory or engaged in any hard labour through out his life but was groomed, pampered and given preferential treatment is an irony only explained by the reason for which it happened. The whole arrangement was a sinister one aimed as using Pata Seca as a breeder of slaves, just as dogs and o...

Shock of the nude: Femen's fight for women's rights comes to London

Shock of the nude: Femen's fight for women's rights comes to London Activist group Femen caused anarchy in the Ukraine when a male co-founder suggested they bare their breasts to make a bigger impact. But in an age of outrage at Page 3, can such tactics bring about long-lasting change — or are they little more than topless stunts? Viv Groksop is briefed on their next battleground: London Walking down a grungy street in the 18th arrondissement, not far from Montmartre, it’s fairly obvious which building is the headquarters of the Ukrainian-born women’s movement Femen. Emanating from what looks like a disused cinema come ear-piercing Amazonian battle cries. Inside are piles of clothes topped with discarded bras. There’s a brush and a palette of war paint on the table. There are slogans daubed on the walls: ‘Muslim women, let’s get naked’; ‘Femen is the name of the new woman’; ‘Women, spring is coming’; ‘Our mission is protest. Our weapon is bare breasts.’ And one in Russian: ‘Put...
