For those who think the guard pulling down is being brutal, he is actually trying to speed up the death by strangling him quickly, rather than let the weight more slowly do so.
In other words, he was not hanged correctly and the execution was botched. The Americans botched their WW2 executions in a similar way, many of them were strangled to death over half an hour and in one case the front of a prisoner's face was ripped off because they didn't construct the gallows properly. The Brits had an experienced executioner using the long drop method leading to instant death, Albert Pierrepoint, and a dramatisation of his execution of WW2 prisoners can also be found on TH-cam, here th-cam.com/video/IiOGS-_81KU/w-d-xo.html

What a great way to do it!, never knowing if they're coming for you, until they get to your door. We should do this with Everyone on Death Row, in America!. I can't imagine that fear being on you 24/7 !!
A Tokyo detention house guard talked about executions in a newspaper article that I read...He said the executions are always carried out in the mornings before eleven am, so the prisons are always deathly quiet in the morning. Death row prisoners are never told of their execution day, so they have the possibility of suddenly being taken on any morning. They sit as quietly as they can, listening for footsteps or any sign that the guards are coming for them or someone they know...He said that after a certain time has passed in the morning there's a release of tension and the prison feels normal for the rest of the day. When the guards do come for a prisoner they don't mention that he is going to be executed, they say, "The warden wants to see you"...Of course, this means they're about to climb the 13 steps.
From Monday morning to Friday evening is the most 10th time in a detention center these prisoners don’t know when their day is coming, they don’t give a date for executions because the prisoner when he killed his victim he never gave him a date it’s Like an eye for an eye

When we had capital punishment in the UK it took no longer than 90 second from when the warders entered the cell to the executioner pulling the lever. None of this agonizing drawn out drama .
Pierrepoint’s record was 7 seconds, but that was from he entered the room. The condemned was already pinioned, placed on the trap and had, I think, the noose. Pierrepoint enters, adjusts the noose and pulls the lever. No fancy knots in Japan or Britain. A simple slip knot with a leather or metal gusset.
Must be difficult to say the least. But I’d like to think I would die with a little dignity...not having to be dragged to the execution chamber like prisoner san in the video.
Dostoevsky's words almost to a letter you just wrote. He was subjected to a mock execution by firing squad before the Tsar's messenger came and said it had been commuted to hard labor in Siberia. But, men were already tied to the post to be shot...that feeling of knowing he was minutes away from death haunted him for all of his life. Naturally, he opposed capital punishment, despite all his conservative views otherwise. He thought it inhumane. I disagree, but it is an amazing thought...knowing exactly when you will die.
Depuis que la peine de mort existe surtout dans les pays riches, les voleurs et les criminels au pouvoir ne sont jamais condamnés à la peine de mort. Pourquoi ne pas les garder en prison jusqu’à la fin de leur jour. “ 15:35 “Seigneur pardonne -leur car ils ne savent pas ce qu’ils font.”
Since it’s from a movie there is a harness on him which has a hidden noose attached to the harness so he is not actually being hanged by the noose you can see
What isn't widely known about the Japanese system is that the prisoner has no idea what time and day the sentence would be carried out - talk about psychological torture!
+Kevin Waddell Condemned prisoners used to be informed about their execution several days earlier, so they could meet their families and friends beforehand. However, some death-row convicts committed suicide before their execution. Since then, the Japanese authorities keep it secret until that moment.
It always happens on the same day of the week and early in the morning. The are kept unaware of when their day will come though. Must be brutal to go week after week not knowing if it'll be your last.
The criteria for the application of the death penalty by the Japanese judiciary is the intentional killing of two or more people. While there are some rare single murders, most of them apply to cases of murder accompanied by brutal torture.
That’s a religious matter in Japan. Whoever died, he or she have to be treated with respect. Dead prisoners will swing after they are executed, which is kind a rude for them. So police officers have to stop swing until doctor confirm their death.
I don't know how realistic this film depiction is ... but I've been curious about the history of executions in Japan and came upon this video by chance (thanks for posting). Question: would there be anything different about executing a foreign prisoner? also, how different were executions during the Meiji ~ early Showa eras?
The knot in a hangman’s rope is there to serve a purpose. Had that been on this noose they wouldn’t have needed the puller. It would have snapped his neck at the bottom of the drop, rather then asphyxiate the dude at the bottom of the drop instead. Bad form. Bad form.
There wasn't a knot in the English ropes - the loop was supposed to "finish" under the chin, thereby throwing the chin "up" and snapping the neck between the 2nd & 3rd vertabraes...
They were also supposed to tie it to a beam in the roof (if they had one in the execution chamber). Also, that guard shouldn't have stood too close to the drop zone.
These convicts showed no mercy while killing innocent people , children. Why should the state or the prison show them any? They must suffer at least a portion of what their victims endured.
@@NerdyNEET I absolutely agree , and yes I also believe they dont execute people for more common crimes , I'm just saying idgaf if they hang a child rapist or killer and serial killers etc.
@@NerdyNEET I also agree with you on this one , none of the above should be a death sentence or even a life sentence , when it comes to sex with an underaged girl or boy if they are 14 15 whatever that can always have a lot of aspects , but for me personally i would give life to someone who molests and rapes a child that is really young 7 8 9 years or whatever you get the point , because that childs life is ruined and it will be traumatized for the rest of its life , and for that i would give life in prison. I've been to prison myself , not of course for any charges like this it was something regarding traffic violations , i did 3 years , so i know how it is , and i know how people eho have done really bad things from rape to murder mostly have no regrets whatsoever except regretting they got caught
Everyone here bemoaning that the practice of death penalty in Japan is cruel should do some more reading. The Japanese judicial system does not take the death penalty lightly. The option is considered only in the most serious circumstances - usually murder cases with more than one victim. People often complain about the condemned not knowing his date of execution, but let me ask you, do YOU know the date that you are going to die? You don't. All you know is that you will die one day, it is just that the prisoners on death row are forced to come to terms with that reality. You feel like you will live tomorrow, and the day after, and the next, just because you are not aware of any threat to your life as far as you can see, and that was the same for the victims of the people on death row in Japan. None of those dead victims thought they were going to die that day. None of the victims' families thought that was the last day they were going to see their loved ones. People don't get sentenced to death for victimless crimes. When there is a person on death row, there are often MULTIPLE victims, and that includes the families.
And what about innocent ones? Let me get an idea out - if an innocent is killed (not executed, as that's an euphemism), the all of the involved, the judge, the guards, the priest and the killer (not executioner) should be killed in squaring the debt. Is that fair? Can we expect to see it in the law? Ofc not, they value their lives too much, much easier to make a mistake, when you are certain you wont be paying for the mistake with your head. But that's is as it should be. You fk up, kill an innocent, there your head goes.
Most death row inmates are sentenced when they are found to have intentionally murdered And now, with the development of measurement technology, the probability of false accusations has been drastically reduced. more than one person. And the death penalty is not carried out immediately. Death row inmates are given the right to request a retrial with rebuttal documentation.
Japanese law states that executions are to be carried out within six months. However, that law is never followed. On average, the death penalty is usually carried out after 10 to 15 years. Many prisoners die in prison without being executed. Cruel murderers and others are mainly executed. Many may think this is barbaric, but it is a natural consequence of the feelings of the bereaved families.
People on death row aren’t considered prisoners in Japan (or Texas). They are condemned at sentencing and are just “stored” until the actual execution. Hence the term “dead man walking”.
Shoko Asahara (founder of Aum Shinrikyo, who was sentenced to death for his involvement a series of crimes including the Sakamoto family murder and the 1995 sarin attack on the Tokyo subway) was sentenced to death in 2004, and his final appeal failed in 2011. But he wasn't executed until 2018, although this was largely due to the arrests of more members of his organisation.
In the US people sometimes have to wait decades ! Of cours, they normally cost a lot of money until they die spontanously or till they will be killed by law.
It’s the not telling them until 15 minutes before the drop. Waiting. Every day listening to the guards pass by. Praying they keep walking. Never knowing if today is the day the guards stop to take you out of your cell for the last time. That’s cruel and unnecessary.
I find the death penalty to be dishourable...8 years ago my daughter was kidnapped, raped, tortured, killed and even mutilated after death and left naked in the woods. I forgave her killer and wished him health and forgiveness from God ... Why? Not because I didn't love my daughter as she was my world....but because taking his life wouldn't pay for or bring back my daughter and it would not give me any solace whatsoever. My wife was then diagnosed with cancer and unfortunately took her own life using heart medication (beta blockers) I have learned....holding onto hate just isn't worth it....mourn yes...but don't be consumed with anger or revenge. You all may be different to me and think differently and react differently but this is just me.
Your heart and spirit are above reproach and warrant admiration and respect beyond measure. You must truly know Christ to have such capacity. I hope you are well and I wish you peace, joy and blessings.
We Jews have a totally different outlook on "forgiveness". God will forgive you, for sins you commit against God, if you sincerely repent your misdeed. But there are unforgivable sins. Sins and wrongs that you commit against your fellow man can be forgiven ONLY by the person you wronged. You must ask him personally for forgiveness. If granted, what you have done is forgiven. If he refuses to forgive you, and you sincerely tried to repent that wrong, it is over, you cannot do any more. If you kill someone, how can a dead person possibly forgive you? He can't, and neither can God. For a friend or family member to say he forgives his child's murderer to us is absolutely ludicrous, bordering on stupid. You have no power to forgive. You can say it till the cows come home, you cannot forgive a murderer, God cannot forgive a murderer, Jesus cannot forgive a murderer. It is an unforgivable sin.
@@nathanielovaughn2145 I do what God would want me to do...I am no where near perfect as only god is perfect...but I can definitely follow his examples.

Albert pierrepoint could hang a prisoner within 20 secs of entering the condemned cell! Why do all these other countries make it such a long drawn out procedure?
Yep. That's the Japanese for you. Everything has to be done just so, in a long, drawn-out ceremony. It was also interesting to observe the last three policemen 'salute' as it were, the prisoner as he hung on the gallows. Very Japanese. Although a person has warranted death, his humanity is still worthy of honor.
@J Calhoun Of course I have, J. It's one of the things that's wrong with the American judicial system! At least 20 or more years of BS-ing around. "Justice delayed is justice denied."
Who are the men in suits with the briefcase? Officials to make sure everything is done correctly according to Japanese law? Like a lawyer of some kind?
In the UK the door of the condemned cell would be opened at the first stroke of 9am and the condemned was usually dead by the time the clock stopped striking.
About 1% of the Japanese population is some sort of Christian. This death row inmate might've been one and requested a priest. Unless priests are always present at ececutions there, I'm not sure.
I'm from singapore i fully support the death penalty. We use long drop hanging too. This is why my country, and japan is so safe. In western countries, no death penalty. You cannot send a child across the country alone.
@arturrybakov546 The problem with the United States is the time between sentence and execution is usually several decades. If it were done within a reasonable amount of time, it would probably deter a lot of crime. I do like how the Japanese do not give you the execution date, no last visits from family. We baby the death row inmates with last visits with their family members, whatever last meal they desire in most cases.
Can you claim Singapore and Japan have never executed an innocent person ? DNA is exonerating imprisoned people all the time. No use at all if they are dead.
It's sort of like ' any last word', usually a note to anyone he dishonored (the victims or his family) or his God. This practice is edged in Japanese tradition, The Samurai used to write the same notes before committing seppuku.
And yet it still went wrong despite popular culture leading people to believe it was always instant and clean. Even the 'famous' Pierrepoint admitted to some screw-ups occurring on his watch.
I know it is difficult for many people, myself included, to be as generous as you. But I also understand that there are others who think like you. For the sake of your daughter, I hope the culprit will be truly sorry.
The published list of those sentenced to death in Japan goes back many years and appears to be reserved for those involved in multiple murders. Once sentenced there seems to be quite a prolonged period during which appeals can be made and the case and sentence fully reviewed to ensure it is valid so I have no issues with that aspect, however, the condemned should in my opinion at least be aware of the date set but only possibly 24 hours prior, it seems a cruel and unusual extension of punishment to leave them sitting day after day wondering if it is their turn today. As for how they treat them after the execution it is only right and proper they treat them with dignity. They have paid for their crime with their lives and have nothing left to give society after that.
The only thing is that the vast majority of convictions are secured through pressure by experienced mental manipulators, so that people often end up confessing to something they have not done. Japan's justice system is riddled with such cases.
Japan has a history of utter barbarism. hundreds of years of civil war, destruction of entire populations, religious figures (monks), beheadings were commonplace. Not surprised they still practice capital punishment.
I know most people who see these kinds of videos find it disturbing or at least feel bad, but shouldn't this feeling be the same for all those animals we slaughter for whatever reasons? Life is precious, be it ours or any other life forms.
A "crutch" is expected to hold on to the death row inmate when they make their final walk to the gallows and hang on to them until the trapdoor drops. In return for taking on such a stressful task, the crutch is usually given a weeklong vacation prior to the execution. Most of the movie is about the guard's vacation and his closeness with the prisoner.
True but Pierrepoint himself said in his autobiography that a long drop hanging properly carried out was instant deep unconsciousness and death soon after.

@NewBuildmini It was black humour. Went straight over your head eh 😂
When we had capital punishment in the UK it took no longer than 90 second from when the warders entered the cell to the executioner pulling the lever. None of this agonizing drawn out drama .
Welcome to Japan
Pierrepoint’s record was 7 seconds, but that was from he entered the room. The condemned was already pinioned, placed on the trap and had, I think, the noose. Pierrepoint enters, adjusts the noose and pulls the lever.
No fancy knots in Japan or Britain. A simple slip knot with a leather or metal gusset.
The drawn out agonizing drama is part of the psychological punishment.
判決確定から死刑は決まってるんだから、法務大臣が許可したらいつ執行されてもおかしくない。しかしながら娑婆で生きてる自分も明日事故に遭うかもしれません。そう考えれば人は誰しもいつかは死ぬ。動けるうちにあの世に行けて寧ろ幸せかもしれませんね

Must be difficult to say the least. But I’d like to think I would die with a little dignity...not having to be dragged to the execution chamber like prisoner san in the video.
Dostoevsky's words almost to a letter you just wrote. He was subjected to a mock execution by firing squad before the Tsar's messenger came and said it had been commuted to hard labor in Siberia. But, men were already tied to the post to be shot...that feeling of knowing he was minutes away from death haunted him for all of his life. Naturally, he opposed capital punishment, despite all his conservative views otherwise. He thought it inhumane. I disagree, but it is an amazing thought...knowing exactly when you will die.
That’s exactly how I felt before my death.

What isn't widely known about the Japanese system is that the prisoner has no idea what time and day the sentence would be carried out - talk about psychological torture!
+Kevin Waddell Condemned prisoners used to be informed about their execution several days earlier, so they could meet their families and friends beforehand. However, some death-row convicts committed suicide before their execution. Since then, the Japanese authorities keep it secret until that moment.

@@TooLameToDie The fear of death is much more frightening than death itself, and condemned convicts have to endure it as a true punishment.

Actors seem really good....i didn't know movie...thank for sharing
Here's a tip - you can always tell a movie by the camera angles used, that doesn't happen in real life.
I don't know how realistic this film depiction is ... but I've been curious about the history of executions in Japan and came upon this video by chance (thanks for posting). Question: would there be anything different about executing a foreign prisoner? also, how different were executions during the Meiji ~ early Showa eras?
その動画は何かの映画からとられたのですか？題名を教えて下さいませんか?
『休暇』だと思います
The knot in a hangman’s rope is there to serve a purpose. Had that been on this noose they wouldn’t have needed the puller. It would have snapped his neck at the bottom of the drop, rather then asphyxiate the dude at the bottom of the drop instead. Bad form. Bad form.
There wasn't a knot in the English ropes - the loop was supposed to "finish" under the chin, thereby throwing the chin "up" and snapping the neck between the 2nd & 3rd vertabraes...
They were also supposed to tie it to a beam in the roof (if they had one in the execution chamber). Also, that guard shouldn't have stood too close to the drop zone.
Ever thought that that's just on purpose?
No. The knot is to knock unconscious the inmate. The sudden stop if done right snaps the neck. On a long drop.
Interesting clip, but unfortunately no subtitles in English.

It may look barbaric and cruel by European standard, but this condemned man just reaps what he has sown from Japanese point of view.
These convicts showed no mercy while killing innocent people , children. Why should the state or the prison show them any? They must suffer at least a portion of what their victims endured.
Regards from England.I agree.
@@NerdyNEET I absolutely agree , and yes I also believe they dont execute people for more common crimes , I'm just saying idgaf if they hang a child rapist or killer and serial killers etc.
@@NerdyNEET I also agree with you on this one , none of the above should be a death sentence or even a life sentence , when it comes to sex with an underaged girl or boy if they are 14 15 whatever that can always have a lot of aspects , but for me personally i would give life to someone who molests and rapes a child that is really young 7 8 9 years or whatever you get the point , because that childs life is ruined and it will be traumatized for the rest of its life , and for that i would give life in prison.
I've been to prison myself , not of course for any charges like this it was something regarding traffic violations , i did 3 years , so i know how it is , and i know how people eho have done really bad things from rape to murder mostly have no regrets whatsoever except regretting they got caught

Everyone here bemoaning that the practice of death penalty in Japan is cruel should do some more reading. The Japanese judicial system does not take the death penalty lightly. The option is considered only in the most serious circumstances - usually murder cases with more than one victim. People often complain about the condemned not knowing his date of execution, but let me ask you, do YOU know the date that you are going to die? You don't. All you know is that you will die one day, it is just that the prisoners on death row are forced to come to terms with that reality. You feel like you will live tomorrow, and the day after, and the next, just because you are not aware of any threat to your life as far as you can see, and that was the same for the victims of the people on death row in Japan. None of those dead victims thought they were going to die that day. None of the victims' families thought that was the last day they were going to see their loved ones. People don't get sentenced to death for victimless crimes. When there is a person on death row, there are often MULTIPLE victims, and that includes the families.
And what about innocent ones? Let me get an idea out - if an innocent is killed (not executed, as that's an euphemism), the all of the involved, the judge, the guards, the priest and the killer (not executioner) should be killed in squaring the debt. Is that fair? Can we expect to see it in the law? Ofc not, they value their lives too much, much easier to make a mistake, when you are certain you wont be paying for the mistake with your head. But that's is as it should be. You fk up, kill an innocent, there your head goes.
Most death row inmates are sentenced when they are found to have intentionally murdered
And now, with the development of measurement technology, the probability of false accusations has been drastically reduced.
more than one person.
And the death penalty is not carried out immediately.
Death row inmates are given the right to request a retrial with rebuttal documentation.
At least not as strict as Singapore. Especially for crimes without direct victims.
Can you find this film available anywhere
Japanese law states that executions are to be carried out within six months. However, that law is never followed. On average, the death penalty is usually carried out after 10 to 15 years. Many prisoners die in prison without being executed. Cruel murderers and others are mainly executed. Many may think this is barbaric, but it is a natural consequence of the feelings of the bereaved families.
People on death row aren’t considered prisoners in Japan (or Texas). They are condemned at sentencing and are just “stored” until the actual execution. Hence the term “dead man walking”.
Shoko Asahara (founder of Aum Shinrikyo, who was sentenced to death for his involvement a series of crimes including the Sakamoto family murder and the 1995 sarin attack on the Tokyo subway) was sentenced to death in 2004, and his final appeal failed in 2011. But he wasn't executed until 2018, although this was largely due to the arrests of more members of his organisation.
In the US people sometimes have to wait decades ! Of cours, they normally cost a lot of money until they die spontanously or till they will be killed by law.
It’s the not telling them until 15 minutes before the drop. Waiting. Every day listening to the guards pass by. Praying they keep walking. Never knowing if today is the day the guards stop to take you out of your cell for the last time. That’s cruel and unnecessary.

Why was He hanged in the movie?-what did He do?..
I find the death penalty to be dishourable...8 years ago my daughter was kidnapped, raped, tortured, killed and even mutilated after death and left naked in the woods. I forgave her killer and wished him health and forgiveness from God ... Why? Not because I didn't love my daughter as she was my world....but because taking his life wouldn't pay for or bring back my daughter and it would not give me any solace whatsoever. My wife was then diagnosed with cancer and unfortunately took her own life using heart medication (beta blockers) I have learned....holding onto hate just isn't worth it....mourn yes...but don't be consumed with anger or revenge. You all may be different to me and think differently and react differently but this is just me.
Your heart and spirit are above reproach and warrant admiration and respect beyond measure. You must truly know Christ to have such capacity. I hope you are well and I wish you peace, joy and blessings.
Sono d'accordo con te in tutto ❤✝️
We Jews have a totally different outlook on "forgiveness". God will forgive you, for sins you commit against God, if you sincerely repent your misdeed. But there are unforgivable sins. Sins and wrongs that you commit against your fellow man can be forgiven ONLY by the person you wronged. You must ask him personally for forgiveness. If granted, what you have done is forgiven. If he refuses to forgive you, and you sincerely tried to repent that wrong, it is over, you cannot do any more. If you kill someone, how can a dead person possibly forgive you? He can't, and neither can God. For a friend or family member to say he forgives his child's murderer to us is absolutely ludicrous, bordering on stupid. You have no power to forgive. You can say it till the cows come home, you cannot forgive a murderer, God cannot forgive a murderer, Jesus cannot forgive a murderer. It is an unforgivable sin.

@arturrybakov546 that doesn’t disprove what I said
@arturrybakov546 The problem with the United States is the time between sentence and execution is usually several decades. If it were done within a reasonable amount of time, it would probably deter a lot of crime. I do like how the Japanese do not give you the execution date, no last visits from family. We baby the death row inmates with last visits with their family members, whatever last meal they desire in most cases.
Can you claim Singapore and Japan have never executed an innocent person ? DNA is exonerating imprisoned people all the time. No use at all if they are dead.

The published list of those sentenced to death in Japan goes back many years and appears to be reserved for those involved in multiple murders. Once sentenced there seems to be quite a prolonged period during which appeals can be made and the case and sentence fully reviewed to ensure it is valid so I have no issues with that aspect, however, the condemned should in my opinion at least be aware of the date set but only possibly 24 hours prior, it seems a cruel and unusual extension of punishment to leave them sitting day after day wondering if it is their turn today. As for how they treat them after the execution it is only right and proper they treat them with dignity. They have paid for their crime with their lives and have nothing left to give society after that.
Their victims did not know 24 hours prior.
The only thing is that the vast majority of convictions are secured through pressure by experienced mental manipulators, so that people often end up confessing to something they have not done. Japan's justice system is riddled with such cases.
Japan has a history of utter barbarism. hundreds of years of civil war, destruction of entire populations, religious figures (monks), beheadings were commonplace. Not surprised they still practice capital punishment.

A "crutch" is expected to hold on to the death row inmate when they make their final walk to the gallows and hang on to them until the trapdoor drops. In return for taking on such a stressful task, the crutch is usually given a weeklong vacation prior to the execution. Most of the movie is about the guard's vacation and his closeness with the prisoner.
