    I read the Executioners Tale by Albert Pierrepoint and in it he explained the long drop method and weight and length of rope. Interestingly he said he used a shackle not a noose as it worked a lot better.

      Yes you are correct the metal part of the noose (compared to the all rope method the yanks use) would dislocate the spine in the neck,it actually mattered what side the metal part of the noose was placed on the neck by the hangman.

      @@tonycoe5907 Usually by the left side of neck , under the frontal part of chin , and the condemned would stand diagonally from where the rope was suspended , so as to make the long drop effective . Also , the girth of the noose ; supposedly the heavier the condemned would be having a wider girth , and shorter plunge to dangle , and the lighter condemned would be fitted with a thinner noose accompanied by a 6'- 8' plunge to expedite death , which was the case of females,though some did spastically dangle for @least 10 minutes Evan as long drop was used. Females , especially attractive ones , garnered morbidly fascinated on lookers , and Evan better on lookers were entertained to see an attractive female flail , thrash , buck in mid air ; though not as many males hanged , but there were a few dancing on air !

    Hanging, I believe is no longer mandatory for certain crimes, but discretionary in Singapore. Must give defence counsel sleepless nights.

    The warden should at least read the death warrant to the inmate and ask him if he has any last words. This is done in front of the gallows and then he is walked up the 13 steps to the rope that has 13 loops.

    There should be witnesses to that and the execution.
    While it shouldn't be dragged out, it would take at least 5 minutes to do those things.

    A very interesting topic , especially those into auto eroticism , and females are always garnering more attention when hanged , and usually barefooted.

    Why do the yanks always use that stupid huge knot

    • @e.l.norton
      @e.l.norton 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      When used properly and placed behind the ear, the knot applies enough force in jerking the neck to sever the vertebrae and cause instant death. The more coils, the more friction and pressure on vessels in the neck.

      Why do you call us "Yanks"? The funny thing about that, is that it's short for "Yankee", which is a derivative of a Native American "Yangee", which means Englishman.

      @@Fos3tex It's a generic term used to describe Americans, not meant as offensive. You are incorrect about the origins too. It has nothing to do with native Americans or Englishmen. it was a term given to Dutch Merchants, but it's complicated, so I suggest you look it up
