Torture

The Geneva convention prohibits torture of POWs.

If it's torture waiting for the answer then yes. If not, then check out amnesty.org To an extent, it's a matter of definition, but, alas, yes, torture is still widely used.

witches are people who chase scared children for aids.

Because when facing horrible pain people will confess to anything, including things that aren't true.

None.

The only person in any accounts that was tortured was Roger Toothaker and we have no concrete proof that he actually was.

The Haunted Break-in. It was directed by Saxson Hale.

I believe that Giles Corey in Salem Massachusetts was the only person tortured to death.

Early-modern Germany confuses me a bit. Anything after 1100 was developed by the Catholic Church (see inquesitions) or the Russian/Slovic areas (see bolshevicks). Some tortures during WWII were based on American research into euthanasia.

torcher

no he did not drown

During the WWII, Hitler managed to gain people's trust and get power. And during WWII, the extermination of all Jews was going on. Hitler experimented with gas chambers and he made Jews dig their own graves & they would stand in front of the grave and their life would be taken away just like that. The Nazi's would shoot them into the very holes they've dug. They would also experiment on some of the Jews for science.

They will sometimes capture some and put them in hold cells in an open building and guard until someone comes and get them

It's hard to say. Obviously some of them are similar to sometihng you might have seen in that era, but they are probobly a person's imagination coupled with knowledge of torture. ( people can think of anything )

Michael Jacksons dad-Joe would make the Jackson 5 rehearse in front of him while he sat with a belt,he would hit them if they did not get it perfect or kick them in the private.He also verbally abused the children,telling them they had big noses and making fun of their looks.

he actually did. It is a well known myth that Harry did die drowning in the water torture illusion, but Harry had an 'iron stomach', anyone could punch him in the gut and he wouldn't flinch, but someone punched him repeatedly in the stomach one day when he wasnt ready and burst his appendix. Im a magicians assistant, he is a god to us(:

Torture horror movies are movies that focus on the intent of torturing other people, at times referred to as 'torture porn'.

Movies like Saw and Hostel fit into this category.

5 1/2 Days

The prisoner was ordered to curl himself up into a ball. Pieces of iron were placed around him/her. The irons were tightened with a screw. Either the prisoner owned up to the crime... or his back was broken! http://gallery.nen.gov.uk/gallery_images/0708/0000/0384/100_9245b_mid.jpg or http://www.duhaime.org/Portals/duhaime/PropertyAgent/3064/Images/20.jpg It was named after its inventor Leonard Skeffington. He was in charge of torture weapons for Henry VIII

Rats were used because they were cheap, easy to get, and around, but nothing lists why or where they were used. The most common tortures in the middle ages had various devices such as the rack, scavengers daughter, the scolds bridle, ducking stool, torture by dislocation, iron balls, water torture, boot torture branding and burning including being burned at the stake, execution by quartering, execution by the wheel, hanging and being hung, drawn and quartered. I think that these were probably enough.

Yes, typically in China (sometimes referred to as 'Chinese tickle torture') during the Han Dynasty. There were different methods, one being to dip the victims feet in a salt bath and have a goat lick off the substance (this started as mere tickling but would eventually become very painful and abrasive).

Tickling was used a lot on nobles and in non-serious cases of torture or bullying, as it leaves no marks or real physical damage.

It was called quartering. Your arms and feet were tied to 4 individual horses and they were forced to bolt tearing you apart.

Ivan the terrible was known to wack down and slice open live birds. He was known to fry people alive and remove their flesh while they were still struggling. He invited several of his advisors on a winter trip to the country. Halfway there, he stripped them of their royal robes and forced them to return to Moscow naked, on foot, in the snow. He threw live small animals (like cats or birds or mice) off of the tops of buildings. He was a terrible, terrible man indeed. -quote my history book

He tore apart peoples limbs attaching each limb to a horse and he made the horse go in different directions. He also skinned people, or disemboweled peoples organs. Attila mainly tore peoples limbs of.

I would like to be tickled tortured
