An incident of tar and feathering occurred in Northern Ireland in August 2007 committed by Protestants on a local man who was said to have been a drug dealer.
This was a regular occurrence in Northern Ireland in the 1970s/80s and it happened many times a lot later than 1981 as stated in this video . It was seen as a milder form of punishment to drug dealers or burglars and car thieves, as opposed to being kneecapped with a hand gun, an assault rifle or in some cases an electric drill. If you were Tared and Feathered you could consider yourself lucky.
There was a tarring and feathering of a drug dealer in Belfast, Northern Ireland in 2007. The paramilitaries tied the man to a lamppost and made the man wear a sign saying ‘I am a drug dealing scumbag’ while passers by recorded it on their phones.
Great video! I always figured the tar and feathers were symbolic of something back then. It's actually even more humiliating that it was just stuff that was on-hand. There wasn't any real thought put into it!
This entire time I assumed it was black tar and assumed it would kill you, or atleast cause massive permanent damage, I always felt it was overkill of a punishment, now I’m learning it’s pine tar. Still seems like overkill, but maybe the Crimes were bad
If a crowd is angry at you better to be tarred and feathered than lynched. Maybe if people were allowed this outlet there would be less murders and assassinations

Actually this happened to a kiddy diddler in my town in the early 90’s. Ultimately he was killed but it was kept quiet and the men that did it were never found. (Nobody was looking). The shotgun blast to the face was the cause of death.
Famous poem, "Skipper Ireson's Ride," by John Greenleaf Whittier - " Old Floyd Ireson, for his hard heart, Tarred and feathered and carried in a cart By the women of Marblehead! " He was the captain of a ship that went down, the women were the wives and mothers of the men who drowned while he saved himself.

Not just Joseph Smith but several Mormon men and leaders were tarred & feathered, beaten and/or murdered while Mormon pioneers made their trek west toward Utah. This especially happened in Navoo, Illinois.
I'm 58 years old. When I was in elementary school the textbooks used cartoons from the day to teach us that this was a funny thing to do to someone. No. This was torture, and the process would throw the victim into such physical shock that many were killed by it. The colonial governor we tarred and feathered during the Revolution was still picking cooked flesh off his body for years afterward. Till his death, he saved some of the huge chunks of cooked skin and muscle that had dehydrated. And just because there is no reference to anyone dying of the process does not mean it didn't happen. Records were usually only kept by the victors. This information is from the victim's diaries and accounts by other court officials.
Let's create a hypothetical, more modern example. The son of a local judge is well known for dealing meth to kids, burglary, public intoxication, and an unhealthy interest in children. He will not be locked up, he will pay no fines. Maybe lets round up about 30 people, some pinetar and pillows and teach him the error of his ways.
It’s because it’s an enlightenment era “lynch mob” but more libertarian. You can voice your grievances without resorting to murder which is barbaric in comparison. Sounds like a good thing to me
People in the comments section: "Bring it back! Bring it back!" Video: "It follows that when something so dangerous is so accessible, it's bound to fall into the hands of the worst kind of people."

I love to learn new things all the time… no matter how small or insignificant it might be. Interesting. I always thought people would DIE from this from burns. Thanks for putting this up. Meow.

I binge a lot of true crime, and I'm always wondering what kind of punishment we could inflict on child abusers in particular. I don't know how it didn't cross my mind, having grown up Mormon, that Joseph Smith's neighbours had come up with the solution 200 years ago. Shaving, tarring, and feathering genitals sounds like a step in the right direction. It's not quite 'going medieval' but 'going 19th century' has a decent ring to it, and making their punishment visible sounds like an effective public service, more than simply 'registering as an offender' might do on its own.
In Canada, the British Loyalist in the American Revolution are called 'Untied Empire Loyalist'. Many of them once they crawled out of the ditch or swamp they had been thrown into, after being tarred and feathered, packed up their things and moved to Canada.
I first heard of “tar and feathering” as a child via Liberty’s Kids and honestly I thought they used asphalt. Lol I was so confused with how this wasn’t a straight death sentence (actually I think I believed that it was)
Is there a recent picture of Elizabeth Jamieson? Does she still have scars? They still married? What did it feel like going on? What did it feel like coming off? Those other two still in jail? I have so many questions. That's messed up.
Tarred, feathered, and put into stocks for a full week. I think a solid, humiliating week of letting EVERYONE have a crack at them might straighten out some of this hogshit we've been letting them get away with for the last 75 years.
I'm really all for the tarring and feathering for anyone holding a government job. The winning point for me was abuse of public trust for say a somewhat roll model. Bring back tarring and feathering. Sign the petition!!
This comment section should be turned off. Unpleasant comments about punishments could scare a lot of others. I know it's not all of you. Just some of you. Please, please, please, please show respect when talking about these Unpleasant things.
Get this: Another Tarring and Feathering incident with women involved happened in 1906, when several young Pennsylvania housewives, believing another woman to be engaging in immoral and evil behavior, burst into her home and poured molasses-based tar on her with the feathers. They then forced her outside, marched her down to the railroad tracks and left her tied to a crate in front of hundreds of (understandably) shocked workmen. Luckily for her, one of the men took pity and released her not long after.
x "syruped and cattailed" - Hahaha! LOVE IT! x In the music video "Don't Mess With Me" by Brodie Dalle (of the Distillers), Brodie is covered with something that looks like tar (the asphault type) at the end after being pelted with things like pills, alcohol bottles, cocaine, etc. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ x In the show Tailspin, they didn't have any tar and feathers so they had to oil and spoon the victim.
I think being tarred could eventually cause death, through persistent and recurring infection. They are burn victims. The amount of skin affected is as damaging as the severity of the burn.
I'm glad I watched this. For decades I believed that pouring tar on people would kill them due to the intensity of the heat. I always believed it to be like °500 degrees but seems more like room temperature, Hersheys syrup.
It's neither. As the video explains, the pitch was still hot enough to cause burns. I mean, just look at one of the pictures from the article. It's a photo of a man with burns on his chest from being tarred and feathered. Also, he talks about how hot the pitch gets in the video.
as a 4 y.o. kiddo with my older siblings, we discovered a leftover tar dump in a ditch from a road crew. I got stuck to it so bad my clothes were pulled off me, i was tar covered head to toe. Even my hair! And had to walk all the way home like that. My poor momma had to get all that tar off me. LOL
I'm sure it still happens. Nothing ever goes away completely. I hope no one is actually burned with modern tar though, something like this should just be for humiliation.
The guy bending over, covered in white feathers, with straps or reins around his thighs looks really happy to be there. Are you *sure* it was always a punishment?
He said no one died being tarred and feathered. I know of a family that men broke into their home and pulled the husband out of bed to be tarred and feathered. They had recently had twins and were very vulnerable. The door was left open and the babies subjected to the extreme cold. The babies died of hypothermia while their father was tarred and feathered. So as a result of this punishment and all those men breaking into their home, two babies died.
As a Canadian, 'syruped and cattailed' sounds about right to me.
As a fellow Canadian, I'd have to agree lol
I always got the sense you were from somewhere in the UK.

In Canada, the British Loyalist in the American Revolution are called 'Untied Empire Loyalist'. Many of them once they crawled out of the ditch or swamp they had been thrown into, after being tarred and feathered, packed up their things and moved to Canada.
I first heard of “tar and feathering” as a child via Liberty’s Kids and honestly I thought they used asphalt. Lol I was so confused with how this wasn’t a straight death sentence (actually I think I believed that it was)
Same here.
Joseph Smith was born in 1805. The church was officially organized in 1830.
I remember that scene from the movie The Blues Brothers When the Ku Klux Klan got tarred and feathered.
Couldn't have happened to a better 'krew'. LOL ✌🏻🐱
Is there a recent picture of Elizabeth Jamieson? Does she still have scars? They still married? What did it feel like going on? What did it feel like coming off? Those other two still in jail? I have so many questions. That's messed up.
Marvellous! Thank u!
That was a really good documentary...well done
In light of the last two years seems we should bring this back for politicians and bureaucrats.
I could see this happening to Dr. Fauci
@@bnhik love your name.
The My Pillow guy…
Tarred, feathered, and put into stocks for a full week. I think a solid, humiliating week of letting EVERYONE have a crack at them might straighten out some of this hogshit we've been letting them get away with for the last 75 years.
Where's the beef?
Interesting. What about the punishment/embarrassment of 'riding a person out on a rail'? What is the history and meaning of that?
Joseph Smith was born in 1830 and tarred and feathered in 1832. I don’t think so.
I'm really all for the tarring and feathering for anyone holding a government job. The winning point for me was abuse of public trust for say a somewhat roll model. Bring back tarring and feathering. Sign the petition!!
The Whiskey Rebellion had so much tarring and feathering it brought the US Army out in force. Would've made a great example for this video.
This comment section should be turned off. Unpleasant comments about punishments could scare a lot of others. I know it's not all of you. Just some of you. Please, please, please, please show respect when talking about these Unpleasant things.
Wonder how long it took for it to come off
Just found your channel very interesting thanks
Thanks for George Brett joke. This is so evil. Good work.
1:44 What kind of punishment is this??
Let's bring it back but with honey and that art glitter that gets stuck in your clothes forever
Don't waste food, man.
It's a fine, kinky line between honey and glitter and whipped cream topped with candy sprinkles.
Could you do an episode on "branding heretics" around the 12th century?
Joseph Smith was not born in 1830, guys. He was born in 1805.
Geeeez, I hope they had some form of Acetone back then
Same
Just love when I get what I want. Thank you great video.
👍
Get this: Another Tarring and Feathering incident with women involved happened in 1906, when several young Pennsylvania housewives, believing another woman to be engaging in immoral and evil behavior, burst into her home and poured molasses-based tar on her with the feathers. They then forced her outside, marched her down to the railroad tracks and left her tied to a crate in front of hundreds of (understandably) shocked workmen. Luckily for her, one of the men took pity and released her not long after.
x "syruped and cattailed" - Hahaha! LOVE IT!
x In the music video "Don't Mess With Me" by Brodie Dalle (of the Distillers), Brodie is covered with something that looks like tar (the asphault type) at the end after being pelted with things like pills, alcohol bottles, cocaine, etc. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
x In the show Tailspin, they didn't have any tar and feathers so they had to oil and spoon the victim.
"your sentence is getting your hair ruined seriously" sounds not so terrible

I think being tarred could eventually cause death, through persistent and recurring infection. They are burn victims. The amount of skin affected is as damaging as the severity of the burn.
Politicians they deserve it.
I was gonna say that.
based
@@eoincoll384 if you have to ask yourself that you’re not paying attention my friend
Insurance company CEOs should probably go on that list
I'm glad I watched this. For decades I believed that pouring tar on people would kill them due to the intensity of the heat. I always believed it to be like °500 degrees but seems more like room temperature, Hersheys syrup.
It's neither. As the video explains, the pitch was still hot enough to cause burns. I mean, just look at one of the pictures from the article. It's a photo of a man with burns on his chest from being tarred and feathered. Also, he talks about how hot the pitch gets in the video.
We aught to bring back this tradition. The first place to start should be the members of Congress!
Most of the Republican party.
@@whiteowl4097 yeah, cause the democrats are so much better
@@whiteowl4097 The Dems have their share of crooks and criminals too, let's be truthful here.
You said Joseph Smith was born in 1830. Tarred & feathered in 1832. So he was 2yrs old? I looked up his DOB and it said he was born in 1805.
as a 4 y.o. kiddo with my older siblings, we discovered a leftover tar dump in a ditch from a road crew. I got stuck to it so bad my clothes were pulled off me, i was tar covered head to toe. Even my hair! And had to walk all the way home like that. My poor momma had to get all that tar off me. LOL
Are you telling the truth?
@@mayadub2271 1960's. Yep. Upstate NY where my dad was stationed. Sadly it's true. LOL
@@roxyloveslucy Are you actually telling the truth?
I'm sure it still happens. Nothing ever goes away completely. I hope no one is actually burned with modern tar though, something like this should just be for humiliation.
i wish u happy birdday dear.
Would love to see Elizabeth's wedding album!
The show on John Adams demonstrates the brutality of feathering and tarring.
Yeah.
We need to bring this back... politicians take heed
NO 👎
It’s interesting that you found polish tar on that pic explaining tar was readily available. Was it hard to find on the net?
The guy bending over, covered in white feathers, with straps or reins around his thighs looks really happy to be there. Are you *sure* it was always a punishment?
In 2022 it's just a fetish now
Love the George Brett reference 👌
I would like to see a video on the history of Necklacing
Saw it on Pornhub. Oh you mean the other type.
@@rodneyspider9452 😐
We had an incident of tar and feather of a professor at the University of Stellenbosch Western Cape South Africa in the early 1980s.
He said no one died being tarred and feathered. I know of a family that men broke into their home and pulled the husband out of bed to be tarred and feathered. They had recently had twins and were very vulnerable. The door was left open and the babies subjected to the extreme cold. The babies died of hypothermia while their father was tarred and feathered. So as a result of this punishment and all those men breaking into their home, two babies died.
The Blockbuster clip at 9:37 was cold blooded 😂🤣
