the electric chair

the electric chair is also a torture weapon. it was used to kill the victim by using lots of electricity and to have the electricity pass through the brain into the body and kill the victim as quick as possible but in some cases this wasn't true because the executioner sometimes would forget or not put enough water on the persons head and there head would simply burn and not actually kill the person or it would kill them but in a cruel way. the electric chair is a fairly simple design and was still used till recently when replaced by poison injections. the electric chair was upon the most common way to kill inmates on death row in prison besides hanging. this is a chair from a prison.

here is also a video explaning on how they used the electric chair.

thanks for reading my posts i hope you like them.

    Man, this ultimate of all chairs! I would have to say, probably one of the worst ways to go, in my opinion. Also, you mentioned that they put water on the person’s head to make them die faster, which is true, but to torture then even more, don’t put water on their head and let them fry! I seen it in a movie once and they don’t die for the longest time, it’s terrible.

    Damn man that’s a lot of electricity that is going threw his body, i would of never guessed that their was allowed people in a room to watch someone get fried. Also I didn’t know their was such a process to actually executing someone, this video really taught me something.

    I have to say that this method of torture and method of death penalty has to be the best one. Has to be the worst way to die in my opinion. I don't think that they should put water on their heads even if it causes more of an electric shock but leave the water aside and let their brain die out and let them suffor. Really good post.

    Damn man, thats messed up, how do you have the heart to do that so someone, I would feel so bad for the guy that has to go threw that, that would be the worst death ever. But if you want someone to suffor, the electric chair would be the best way with out the water thought because you want them to suffor not to kill them fast.
