this is the type of channel im so desperately looking for...calm..well researched...great archival footage, consistent tone, no annoying royalty free music like vox, buzzfeed etc..and NOT vlog style. a good classic documentary format. adam curtis style. easy to watch easy to listen to
Man, I've been watching since the 100 views days and you're really doing it. I knew this channel would take off. Just keep up the nuance and the sincerity
Can you explain what vlog style is? I think I might know, but I would like to hear from you. I find that the people who talk really fast, excessively edit, and have a certain cadence style that's distracting not to mention, annoying is becoming increasingly common with vloggers. I wonder if there are any known critique videos of this, because I like the content, just not the delivery and maybe if it were known then people could refine their style. Who am I to tell them, though.
Now that I’ve watched until the end, I have to say the videos you make are a great service. Those last two stories had me really tearing up, so many innocents who’s lives were cut short so horrifically.
i second this. straighed up started crying when horses said he asked for icecream. paused to collect myself and he said "he asked for it to be put in the fridge for later" 😢😢😢😢
Something else about Joe's case that I find heartbreaking is how much workers in the prison system begged for him to be spared. People tried to appeal to the highest possible power they could to get him taken off death row, some even begging tears, but nothing was done. I can only imagine how the workers who had to carry out his execution felt in that moment.
Seeing that autistic man and that 14 year old boy absolutely broke my heart. How horrific. I am a staunch believer that some crimes are unforgivable and that death is the only recourse. But this video, I have to say, makes even someone like me start to think twice about the death penalty.
I understand your conviction, but there are no crimes which carry a mandatory death sentence. Who gets put on death row is arbitrary, picked by the state. Such a penalty shouldn't be given out on a single judge's whim. The state should not have the power to execute it's own citizens.
@@montauk1684Not even if it makes us feel righteous? 😢😢😢😢 (on a serious note…yeah, I’m one to think the system isn’t perfect enough yet to say we can safely assume every person on death row is guilty and deserving of execution…but if it’s gonna happen, I don’t wanna be the one to do it 👀)
Why would it make you reconsider? The fact that something was misused on a number of occasions, dose not mean it is initself a bad thing. The same logic would state that if a deranged lunatic drove a car into a crowded shopping mall, that means cars are morally wrong.
6:34 This made me sad. I didn't cry but this certainly made me feel sad. Imagine being him, you get tricked into admitting something you didn't do, play with a toy train a dude gives you, and you ask to have your ice cream put in the fridge. But soon you are murdered. If this doesn't make you sad, imagine it being a 6 year old witch was his mental capacity at the time.
your thoughtful analysis reminds of jacob geller, and that is the highest compliment i can bestow. i’m in love with this channel after only watching two vids! your work does not go unnoticed 💕
George stinny wasn’t proven innocent of the crime of murder. His posthumous exoneration was on a technicality. His conviction back then wasn’t up to the scrutiny of todays legal requirements for an execution but you can say that about any execution back then. He was exonerated for modern political reasons. Not because he was innocent.
your video on donald crowhurst was probably the best video ive ever seen on youtube (and by extend one of the greatest pieces of film ever made), and this one might be even better, that first false execution story was just heart wrenching, and your delivery on it was what made it hit so much more also, you should bring back that messyish painterly style from the donald crowhurst video, its what sets you apart from basically every video ive ever seen on this website, anyway, thank you!
wow, thank you! I really appreciate that -- especially considering I am the one who drew those pictures. I would absolutely love to do more videos in that style (and in time, I will). They are just enormously time-consuming. All of the illustrations are done with paint and ink on paper, by hand. Then, they need to be processed into a digital format. Putting out weekly videos in that style is basically impossible right now. But rest assured, as the channel grows, I fully plan on doing more work in that style. Thanks for your support
@@HorsesOnYT Dude your art style is GODLIKE. If I don't see your art in some affluent Italian museum in a few years, I'm gonna be annoyed. Also, your video on Donald Crowhurst was the first video of yours I saw, and the reason I subscribed. I wish my work had even a fraction of the impact yours does, and if I only had a few TH-cam channels to preserve in my subscriptions, this would be one of them.
man joes case made me cry very hard that is the most tragic thing i’ve heard in a while the poor boy deserved better he didn’t even know what was going on!
The first video of yours I watched was the content addiction video. It resonated and made me feel peacefully aware, but the way you delivered it kept me coming back again and again. The Donald Crohurst video I listened to yesterday as I drove to launch my own boat, and I very much intend to watch it properly with my wife. Then the Arthur April 9th video was another one that really got to me, and the Capitalism one also. Your storytelling is fantastic. I know you’ll be riding rapidly in subscribers, here’s to you!
I just discovered your channel, and man am I impressed! You produce fantastic, researched material. The latter is something oftentimes overlooked on the internet, unfortunately. Well done! Subbed!
Franz Schmidt (1555 - 1634), also known as Meister Franz or Frantz Schmidt, was an executioner in Hof from 1573 to April 1578, and from 1 May 1578 till the end of 1617 he was the executioner of Nuremberg. He left a diary in which he detailed the 361 executions he performed during his 45-year career
Bruh he’s know as a nazi lmao just cuz u don’t got the uniform on doesn’t take that away. “ When you get to your little place on Nantucket Island, I 'magine you're gonna take off that handsome-lookin' S.S. uniform of yours, ain'tcha?... That's what I thought. Now that I can't abide. How 'bout you Utivich, can you abide it?” I mean, if I had my way... you'd wear that goddamn uniform for the rest of your pecker-suckin' life. But I'm aware that ain't practical, I mean at some point you're gonna hafta take it off. So. I'm 'onna give you a little somethin' you can't take off.” 😊
Well made video. Interesting to hear what happened to former executioners. More of a reason why to get rid of the death penalty. Every time I hear about George Stinney it's heartbreaking, seeing the pictures where he was crying. It's sad.
Amazing channel man. Your content is absolutely incredible, informative, and entertaining. keep it up! I hope you continue to rise in popularity and get that sub count higher and higher!
This was so well done. I have always been against the death penalty, and you bet after seeing this I am even more against it, now. Also, how does this not have more views? Your videos are incredible!
I have this book about executions called "the art of execution" or something like that, and it pointed out that the requirements for a medieval executioners was essentially to be a psychopath.
Beautifully done sir; recently subbed after seeing your video on Ether. Japan has a very thoughtful process for carrying out their executions; not just from the executioner’s point of view; the condemned individual’s as well. Not surprising, considering the amount of thought and consideration the Japanese seem to put into everything. None the less; couldn’t imagine ever finding myself in that position. Monster’s Ball always comes to mind for me.
@@frenchfry3867 this is absolutely a valid point; seems to be an issue with the criminal system globally; the idea that the benefit of a specific result is tied to career advancement; and that overall it resembles a corporation rather than a social service makes it seem pretty bleak. Until people in general understand that here in the US we have a for profit prison system; with some of them being listed on the stock exchanges; paying dividends and quarterly earnings, the monster is not only under the bed but he’s well fed. Pretty bleak. All that being said; the death penalty isn’t something I agree with; but it may be the one thing for me that I can’t say is black or white. I think that’s why the video Horses made is so well done.
Very interesting and well put together. If people are interested the equivalent person in the UK was Albert Pierrepoint, his story is well worth researching.
Great video. If you haven’t seen it, I recommend you watching Errol Morris’s Dr. Death. It’s a fascinating documentary, about a guy, who built execution machines. He serviced certain electric chairs, used in different places. How the guy saw the world, is where the documentary goes, and how a mind like his works. It goes to some odd places, yet reveals a lot about the machinery of an execution, and how it’s a business for this guy.
Great video. A good next place for anyone interested is the documentary Into The Abyss. It looks at the perspective of the executioner and the soon to be executed in a really interesting way
Great video! I'd recommend everyone to watch the Werner Herzog documentary "Into the Abyss" about this topic. It's a great look at capital punishment with interviews from all sides: the criminal on death row, the families and friends of murder victims, and just as in this video, the prison workers who perform the executions. It's an incredibly powerful documentary that always comes to mind hearing of the death penalty.
Great video, and so true. I think that's my problem with the death penalty. Our system is not fool proof enough for such an absolute. And for it to work for one it has to work for all.
Even than it’s pretty much impossible to execute someone without excruciating suffering not much better than the atrocious crimes that land people on death row. Jacob Geller did a great video on the subject.
@@shroomer8294 Morphine, firing squad, guillotine. Some more visually nasty than others, but ODing is already the favorite pastime of many people here in the West.
I’ve often wondered, what kind of ghoul takes that job. Dow’s daughter’s description of her dad I believe nails it. Dow finally did the right thing at the end, and he should have done that much earlier.
The grief they feel reminds me of how the mental health of slaughter house workers is also overlooked when the job takes such a toll on them. Killing anything is so destructive to the human mind I feel because we have empathy.
My mothers mother’s father was electrocuted in Oklahoma for murdering three of his children. He tried to kill the whole family. His name was Chester Barrett. 1935
I know it's nice to think otherwise, but there are plenty of folks who would have absolutely no second thoughts (or thoughts at all) when performing their duties as executioner. I grew up spending my summers in the morgue and forensic investigation center. Saw plenty of murder investigations, and autopsies..... First hand before the age of 10. And while there are plenty of people who get their jollies hurting people... There are others who simply have no emotion.... positive or negative..... when it comes to taking life taking life. It is simply a chore that must be done. I know that sounds really weird and bizarre. And I wish it still felt that way to me. I don't know how people spend their lives doing forensic investigation.
i have autism and the story about arridy breaks my heart ive also read about the george stinney execution in a book i bought about executions, this is so vile :(
Top tier content clean editing and well spoken delivery makes perfect content to drift off to sleep. GREAT CONTENT KEEP IT UP!!! yeah I actually am very invented in your videos 10/10 💯💯💯
I am firmly against the death penalty. Not only do I view them as state-sanctioned murders, but I would rather 100 guilty men go free than a single innocent man be put to death. Finding evidence where there is none is the greatest failing of the justice system.
@HorsesOnYT its funny because I wasn't even suggested that video I was suggested the unabomber video. I gotta say your thumbnails easily attract attention, and it looks like there's so much work you put into the storytelling of the videos and art I give the last 20 or so videos a 10/10. You can clearly see the improvement you've made over the last 3 years, and I have no doubt that you'll blow up fr. I also just have to touch on just how great your thumbnails are, though, because normally I check the viewer count on a video b4 I watch, but your thumbnails are so eye catching that I don't even think of looking at the viewer count and than the videos don't feel Monotonous or over drawn. Videos feel like a Ted Ed production video. Overall, I think this is a great channel, and as long as you don't go back into making water videos, this channel will blow on in no time!
@HorsesOnYT I will say, though, your channel could have a lot more reach if you started putting content on social media platforms and if you pushed out more shorts, but you probably already know this lmaoooooooo I just feel like this channel could very easily be alot bigger than what it is
I’m pretty sure that it’s based on handles rather than shown usernames. Also, youtube started in 2005. Edit: just checked, the handle “horses” isn’t taken.
@@Periwinkleaccount thanks for the explanation. Time really has flown by. I’d imagine there would be some equestrians who would jump on the chance to have the handle Horses, but I’m overthinking things.
@@Wyattinous I agree. It’s odd how it was never taken in all 18 years of youtube’s existence, but it might have been taken, then untaken due to a username change.
Learning that the largest supplier of lab animals is also one of america's most prolific executioners is not a fact I was planning to learn today. But boy can I tell you everyone else I know will.
I love your channel, keep ‘em comin, but please put a content warning or something bc that image of the little boy about to get executed is literally keeping me up at night rattling in my brain. Like that is the worst picture I’ve ever seen. I known some ppl need to see that shit to understand but I need to know if there’s a chance of literal child murder pics on my youtubes PLEASE
this is the type of channel im so desperately looking for...calm..well researched...great archival footage, consistent tone, no annoying royalty free music like vox, buzzfeed etc..and NOT vlog style. a good classic documentary format. adam curtis style. easy to watch easy to listen to

The poor 14 year old who was murdered by the state…how anyone could possibly put a boy to death is horrific.
The story about Joe Arridy has got to be one of the saddest things I've ever heard
The story gets even sadder if you read up on it. He was framed by police and his trial was a mess.
@@THICCTHICCTHICC One of the people Bill Clinton while governor of Arkansas executed left a slice of pie in his cell to eat after the execution.
I've been to the museum where they have the real gas chamber that they killed Joe arridy in. Pretty eerie and tragic place.
Yeah the 14year old CHILD is definitely sadder
The photo of that young boy being strapped into the electric chair...wow
Something else about Joe's case that I find heartbreaking is how much workers in the prison system begged for him to be spared.

I am firmly against the death penalty. Not only do I view them as state-sanctioned murders, but I would rather 100 guilty men go free than a single innocent man be put to death. Finding evidence where there is none is the greatest failing of the justice system.
I don't get much Internet so l try to watch the best quality content possible.
My boy has BLOWN UP ever since he stopped making ocean videos lmaoooooooo
💀 turns out I just needed to make an Arthur video all along
@HorsesOnYT its funny because I wasn't even suggested that video I was suggested the unabomber video. I gotta say your thumbnails easily attract attention, and it looks like there's so much work you put into the storytelling of the videos and art I give the last 20 or so videos a 10/10. You can clearly see the improvement you've made over the last 3 years, and I have no doubt that you'll blow up fr. I also just have to touch on just how great your thumbnails are, though, because normally I check the viewer count on a video b4 I watch, but your thumbnails are so eye catching that I don't even think of looking at the viewer count and than the videos don't feel Monotonous or over drawn. Videos feel like a Ted Ed production video. Overall, I think this is a great channel, and as long as you don't go back into making water videos, this channel will blow on in no time!
@HorsesOnYT clicked for the thumbnail and stayed because of the video
@HorsesOnYT I will say, though, your channel could have a lot more reach if you started putting content on social media platforms and if you pushed out more shorts, but you probably already know this lmaoooooooo I just feel like this channel could very easily be alot bigger than what it is
I wouldn't accept death penalty even if I could be certain that no innocent would be killed.
Justice should never be vengeance.
Horses huh? I gotta say I’m surprised this one was never taken. TH-cams been around since like, 2007? 06?
I’m pretty sure that it’s based on handles rather than shown usernames. Also, youtube started in 2005. Edit: just checked, the handle “horses” isn’t taken.
@@Periwinkleaccount thanks for the explanation. Time really has flown by. I’d imagine there would be some equestrians who would jump on the chance to have the handle Horses, but I’m overthinking things.
@@Wyattinous I agree. It’s odd how it was never taken in all 18 years of youtube’s existence, but it might have been taken, then untaken due to a username change.
Learning that the largest supplier of lab animals is also one of america's most prolific executioners is not a fact I was planning to learn today. But boy can I tell you everyone else I know will.
Big fan
I love your channel, keep ‘em comin, but please put a content warning or something bc that image of the little boy about to get executed is literally keeping me up at night rattling in my brain. Like that is the worst picture I’ve ever seen. I known some ppl need to see that shit to understand but I need to know if there’s a chance of literal child murder pics on my youtubes PLEASE
