Torture

Torture is the infliction of severe physical pain, psychological pain, and possibly injury to a person or other living being on purpose. In most cases, the victim is restrained and unable to resist the violence of the perpetrator. Torture has been used and continues to be used by individuals, organizations, and governments, regardless of numerous governments' and international organizations' laws opposing torture. This is because there are numerous motives for torture such as: punishment, revenge, political re-education, deterrence, interrogation or coercion of the victim or a third party, or simply the sadistic gratification of those carrying out or observing the torture.

Why does Jigsaw torture and kill people?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I think he uses an injection/syringe to sedate his victims. In Saw 3D Dr Gordon and 2 other pig-heads attack Hoffman and Gordon stabs Hoffman with an injection. It then makes them feel weak and Hoffman passes out. Then it gives the chance for the Pig-head that stabs him to put him in his trap. Hoffman was put in the bathroom trap and was left to die with all the other corpses.I hope that you like my suggestion of my answer.

What were the torture methods of Vlad the Impaler?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vlad Drăculea's preferred method of torture was impalement, where you are simply left to slide down a greasy stake. As the stake gets into your body, it slowly rips everything in its path, and you are left to die.

His other methods of torture included;

-Smashing of the head

-Boiling alive

-Burying alive

-Left to die in a pit

He did this all in underground torture chambers in both of his two castles, located in what was Wallachia, now is Transylvania, a province in Romania.

But that there are also many legends, so that no one can say what really happened and what was invented.

When did medieval torture stop?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Because it was during the Inquisition when criminals were heavily tortured and so the most common ways to torture or execute criminals during the Inquisition was by Burning at the Stake, using The Wheel Torture or using the Head Vice. Later on, when the average peasant took fear to this torture, crimes lowered quickly.
