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.

A viral photo showing what is claimed to be "The Bunny Man", 1970
In 1970, there were 2 police reports which were both investigated. Both reports contained details about a man in a bunny costume with an axe threatening
people and in one report, the armed madman even attacked a couple in a car, smashing their windscreen.
These events took place in Fairfax County, Virginia, USA. Both these events were not investigated further due to a lack of evidence. However, there were 50 more reported sightings of the bunny man in wooded or urban areas.
Even newspapers such as the Washington Post reported on the matter. Different headlines include: "Man in Bunny Suit Sought in Fairfax" (October 22, 1970) "The 'Rabbit' Reappears" (0ctober 31, 1970)
"Bunny Man, Strikes Again' (November 1, 1970) "Bunny Man Seen" (November 4, 1970) "Bunny Reports Are Multiplying" (November 6, 1970)
The incidents became an urban legend that varies between areas. Some say the bunny man will attack
random people in the woods and in some stories, he dies and returns as a spirit. Some say the man haunts different bridges in the area and Strikes at couples or lone
travellers. Some say the bunny man abducts people and tortures them. Nonetheless, the story became
exaggerated off what appears to be, real events.
The photo above was proven to be fake, and it was part of an art project, but it was included as it best represented the history of the bunny man and was the most accurate thing I could find online about the case.
