"Any final words? TOO BAD" fucking decapitates 💀

Fun fact, prisoners used to fight over who was going to the gilotine first as the blade would get dull and it would take multiple tries

Fun Fact Time! - The Pear of Anguish was generally disproven as a method of medieval torture, as the strength of springs at the time period that they were supposedly used were not nearly strong enough to rip open orifices, and could easily be resisted by jaw, pelvic or anal muscles depending where inserted. The jaws of the pear were also likely held closed by a latch, which would not be able to be opened when within a human, and the spring would open the jaws too quickly for the latch to be opened before inserting the device. (Don't quote me on this it is just something i remember from when I hyper fixated on medieval torture methods.) - The Guillotine was still in use in France when the first Star Wars movie came out. - Prisoners used to fight over who got to be executed first by the Guillotine as the blade dulled over time and multiple chops had to be made to finish the execution of the final prisoners is there were many to be executed.

Fun fact: the reason why people who were getting hung got blindfolded is because when you are hung, there's so much force on the head, the eyes "pop out" of the socket. So people started blindfolding the hanging victims to take the human element away.

Omg this is probably the most dramatic way Pete has ever died 😂

Fun fact: the phrase "Pulling your leg" (British slang for having a joke) comes from hangings. Because they used to be so botched, like Kris said, family members/friends in the watching crowds would often run to the victims afterwards to pull on their legs, ensuring the neck would break so their loved one didn't have to suffer for longer than needed.

I’m a former history student and medieval punishment was my favourite part of the syllabus so seeing Kris make a video on this was fun!!

I’m Dutch and it makes so much sense why we learned about keelhauling in primary/middle school, it also makes sense that they did that tbh. I was 10 first time I heard of this lmao. We learned a lot about torture methods in school tbh. Side note, the Dutch were insane, at one point they murdered and ate their prime minister and his brother “gebroeders de Witt” it’s also still not illegal to eat human flesh here. 👍🏻

The creator, Perillus, was actually the first victim of the Brazen Bull. The ruler at the time wanted a “demonstration” and ordered Perillus to be put in it after he showed it off to Phalaris

Some of these execution methods are beyond horrifying. It's crazy how cruel humans can be.

I just love how we are talking about torture and then Kris goes”well is there snacks😂😂”like I’d ask to

Just so you know, Kris. People used to fight over who got executed first. This was because the more peoples heads were cut off, the duller the blade got. So everyone shoved and pushed to get first so it was quick and painless. But you fight Pete so it probably wouldn't be as bad

“Any final words?” *Pause* “TOO BAD” THAT WAS AN AMAZING INTRO XD

“they are dead it doesn’t matter”. Omg I love Kris 12:49

29:21 I love how kris talked about Anne Boleyn getting her head chopped off and also talking about HenryVIII

Another fact about the Brazen Bull is that its creator was a famous sculptor who was commanded by a tyrannical emperor, who also practiced cannibalism, to make a torture/execution device. When he presented the finished bronze sculpture to the emperor, he was both horrified and excited... and promptly volunteered the sculptor as the first "test subject." So yes, the first person to die in the Brazen Bull was the person who created it.

I mean, Guillotine is probably the least horrific way to die, but you forgot to mention that A, YOU DONT DIE IMMEDIATELY you will see your head dropping to the ground before you actually die, although you'd probably be in shock and not able to actually process what's happening, you would technically still be alive for a few seconds, and B, they often didn't sharpen it after every chop, resulting in a dull blade that would take several tries to actually sever your head :')

1:16 - The Brazen Bull 4:02 - Scaphism 6:21 - Blood Eagle 8:56 - Roman Candle 11:37 - Iron Maiden 14:00 - Boiling 15:48 - Keelhauling 18:23 - Hanging 20:06 - Rat Torture 21:58 - Drawing and Quartering 24:16 - Crucifixion 26:30 - Pear of Anguish 28:00 - Guillotine

can we talk about how lovely kris’s eyes are for a sec? like they look almost purple in some lighting, it’s so pretty!

The most intriguing part of this video is that you have to censor yourself with certain words like death, suicide, rape, etc., but you can show and explain the most gruesome and twisted ways to maim and kill somebody, and that's a-okay.

I always get little shivers whenever I think of decapitation due to the possibility of still being alive for 10 to 15 seconds right after that happens

The fact that Kris says “we all know they’d accuse me of being a witch back then” and then proceeds to say that she’s gonna rank them 1-13….😂😂😂😂 idk if that was intentional or not but I found it very funny😂😂 Love ya Kris!

For some reason I was really into this as a 11-12 year old (and still kinda now) so I actually recognized a lot of these lol. So facinating.

My list: 1. Crucifixion - Iconic 2. Boiling - It's probably an easy death.... 3. Hanging 4. Drawing and Quartering - Also an iconic death 5. The Blood Eagle - I dreamt of it as a child, therefore I am prepared 6. Iron Maiden 7. Brazen Bull 8. Guillotine - Decapitation is scary 9. Roman Candles 10. Keelhauling 11. Pear of Anguish - It's okay, I'd give them whatever information they wanted anyway.. 12. Rat torture 13. Scaphism

Sitting here sipping my tea as Kris casually describes a bunch of gruesome ways to die.

Fun fact... Iron Maidens were never used. They were designed in the Victorian era as a "medieval torture device" by showmen and fantasy writers. They were "decorated" on the inside with spikes because the contraption itself was a decoration.

Oddly, when the scaphism torture information about the milk and honey was being described, I had this odd thought come to my mind. America has been referred to as long as I can remember as the land of milk and honey, and I've always taken this quote as a positive thing, but now I'm rethinking the whole thing.

You had my list exactly. Please do more. Thank you for being amazing you have helped me with my anxiety. Thank you sooooo much

THE INTRO 😭😭 THIS WAS PURE COMEDY , I ALWAYS HAVE TO RUN WHEN KRIS POSTS ♥️‼️

I love how she compliments us in every single video it brightens my day

Fun fact! Sometimes with the guillotine the blade would be too dull and would only cut half the head off. Also another fun fact, although you probably wont feel pain at that point, they did tests and asked people to blink there eyes for as long as they could once their head was cut off and there was instances of people being able to blink there eyes for up to 1 minute after having there head cut off.

I am going through a breakup right now and watching your videos is making me smile..❤

21:27 Fun (but also scary) Fact: The Mafia still uses this technique in their torture practices, when getting information out of people, or get back at people who have double crossed/stole from them and to the people who disrespect someone they protect. Though, they use a metal bucket and a torch gun or sometimes a lighter (if they want to drag it out for a longer period of time), with the person either tied to a chair, laid on a cool floor (to draw the rats to dig deeper) or in the most extreme way, they wield a metal suit onto the victim (this is like pieces of metal that's attached to the bucket, wrapped around them so as to prevent it being taken off.) leaving no chance of escaping death.

Fun fact about the Brazen Bull: the person who created it, Perillos of Athens, was also it’s first victim. The person he created it for wanted a demonstration, and poor Perillos drew the short straw.

The drawing and quartering was also practiced in Asia more specifically in China and mongolia but it was a little bit different in the sens that your head was also attached to a horse. And also about the guillotine, Louis 14 was the only person executed that had their head facing the blade so that he could feel the anticipation of it.

The crucifixion nails went straight through the medial nerve in the wrist, and likewise between the upper toe bones. So you were suspended by and on your own nerves, and the only way to breathe was to push/pull on the nails to be able to breathe out. You basically suffocated for days only being able to breathe when the fight/flight reflex got so bad that you would push through the pain to take another breath.

My list (from least to worst): 1. Guillotine (obviously) 2. Keelhauling 3. Pear of anguish 4. Hanging 5. Blood eagle 6. Boiling 7. Crucifixion 8. Drawing and quartering 9. Roman candle 10. Brazen bull 11. Iron maiden 12. Rat torture 13. Scaphism Also love your videos and how your content changes. I find some of the macabre things about the past that you deep dive into really interesting and the variety and effort you put into your videos :) thanks for being so cool

I’ve been obsessed with ancient torture methods for years (not in a psychopath way, I swear) so this is just my ideal KMK video!! 🖤

”You are looking extra steamy hot” *just died after eating a hot cheeto* Wow how’d you know?

The Pair of Anguish or also known as a choke pair, would also be used in robberies. It would usually be put in a woman’s mouth to keep them from screaming.

As a "strange interest" folk, like you, I LOVE this kind of light-hearted "dark" content. Thanks, Kris!

21:31 I CAN’T BREATHE, I’M A HUGEEEE GHOST FAN AND I LOOKED AWAY FOR A SECOND TO JUST HEAR TOBIAS GROWLING “RATS”. Anyway, great video like always Kris! Even though these are serious topics you can still make it fun :3

12:56 Oh that's nice. 😂 That's still readable German. It says: Eiserne Jungfrau geschlossen (Iron Maiden closed) Das heimliche Gericht mit der eisernen Jungfrau zu Nürnberg 1533 (the secret court with the iron maiden at Nürnberg 1533) Eiserne Jungfrau geöffnet (Iron Maiden open) Interesting 😅 I didn't know it was secretly done

Fun fact: crucifixion was also used in the Carthage empire mostly for generals who failed in battle. This is why they were very careful while planning. And the disturbing fact is that they thought this to children in their schools

Bro the fact that there are more than 190 comments when Kris just uploaded a video not even 10 minutes ago says a lot. Love you Kris! Keep it up!

A very un-fun fact: when you're burning alive, like the Roman candle, your eyes literally melt out of your head before you even have a chance to pass out.

sometimes i just sit on my bed staring into space and wonder what the fuck is wrong with some people to do stuff like this. on another different note, i love you kris, your hilarious and also just really kind, loving your compliments at the start of each video

According to historical legend, one of the foods that were served at Nero’s Roman candle garden parties was flavored ice cream. Ice cream originated in either China or Persia, depending on the source.

THE INTROS ARE ALWAYS AMAZING LOVE YA KRISSS

man medieval torture devices and methods are so interesting to me despite how gruesome all of them are so I’m glad to see you talk about them. love you Kris, great video as always and hope you’re doing well!

Common misconception, despite what tv and movies will have you believe, you cannot pass out from pain itself. Kris even said it earlier in the episode but its the bloodloss and shock that causes someone to pass out

For those who wondered: the ship at 17:37 is named "Wreedheid" which translates to "Cruelty" in Dutch.

Jay is the one killing it. I mean wow brother, the way you can take us on the journey of the story is unreal. Truly art.

I used to work at Medieval Times and would be in charge of "guarding the dungeon" or taking tickets from people and letting them into the Torture implements museum and on slow days after the shows were done I loved giving personal tours and talking about each of the displays. My favorite was the Pear of Anguish, it was usually only with groups of adults though lol

2:14 bruhhhh… close??? She was spot on!!!😭😍😂

Kris, the lighting in ur recording room is giving season 2

as a duch, I know very mutch about kielhaulig. It didn't get used a lot, and if it happend, most victims got proper armor, (mostly leather tho) and survive it. unfortunaly most did pass away after a few weeks due infection of the wounds they got (but most people on a boat didn't survive). compared to the others this was probaly the least worse becouse you still have a chance to survive

Kallmekris Ghost fan confirmed? @21:30. Also these methods are INSANE. Emperor Nero popping up so many times cracked me up though. Dude was crazy

Fun fact: crucifixion was also used in the Carthaginian empire mostly for generals who failed in battle. This is why they were very careful while planning. And the disturbing fact is that they thought this to children in their schools Edit: thx for 1 like👍

I love seeing your reactions to this kinda thing. Please keep doing more. And thanks to Jay for adding some metal(Rats) to the mix.

Pear of anguish: (exists) Joker: you wanna know how I got these scars?

You look so gorgeous I'm obsessed with your hair!!! I'm also so happy to see you happy 💜 Caleb treats you so well it's awesome to see my two favorite youtubers together!

I love the fun and informative. Especially when it comes from the best UKposts channel ever.

1. Guillotine 2. Hanging 3. The Blood Eagle 4. Keelhauling 5. Roman Candle 6. Boiling 7. The Pear of Anguish 8. Drawing and Quartering 9. Crucifixion 10. Iron Maiden 11. Brazen Bull 12. Scaphism 13. Rat Torture I’m all about the quick (if not so painless) deaths lol. And the rat torture, just no. No. I could imagine it happening to me, them feeding on me, nahhhhh. Not the way I wanna go 😭

15:06 why was the first thing that popped up in my head when I saw Henry the 8th: 🎵DIVORCED, BEHEADED AND DIED,DIVORCED BEHEADED,SURVIVED. I’M HENRY THE 8th I HAD 6 SORRY WIFES, SOME MIGHT SAY I RUINED THIER LIFES🎵

I love the Ghost clip at 21:30. One of my favorite songs, and perfect timing.

In my highschool French class, we would play guillotine, which was pretty much hangman, but instead of drawing the man, you colored in different levels, until the blade got to the head at the bottom. Gotta love it!

i love these type of kris’s videos. pls make more i love it !!!

The iconic walk into murdering Pete was absolutely stunning but hell stricken 😂

The blood Eagle was actually done in a scene on the TV show Vikings, there's also a viking themed tattoo shop in south of England called Blood Eagle ☺️ Also I knew about the keelhauling before, it was done in a film I watched, actually think it might of been done on the series Black Sails but I can't rightly remember.

Fun fact about the Guillotine: Prisoners used to fight offer who got executed first because the blade was never sharpened. So sometimes it would take multiple tries to get the head off.

Kallmekris and Jay, I loved the Ghost-Rats reference. I ran to show my husband immediately.

I love how much Kris is branching out. She does new and different things and evolving as a content creator. Thank you for another amazing video.

I was actually so happy when Rats by Ghost were played, they are my favourite band. Kris never fails to make me smile❤❤

idk why but this totally reminds me of your time with Sam and Colby. I miss their videos, and they've stopped uploading, and their most recent posts are gone, which makes me sad. Do you know why, Kris? also i love ur videos sm and youve been my comfort youtuber for years now.

Recently I made a presentation on medieval torture (I'm in 8th grade) and presented it to my class for social study extra credit.

21:31 THAT GHOST REFERENCE WAS NOT UNSEEN?!?!?!

I never thought my respect for a UKpostsr would get any higher, but GODDAMMIT after that singular second of the Rats music video by Ghost?!?? I will literally respect you until the end of time and I will fight frigging battles for Jay and Kris!! Ya’ll are awesome!! ❤️❤️🐀

Fun Fact: disembodied heads have been found to stay conscious/alive for up to five seconds after they are severed from the body. This might not sound like a lot of time, but imagine how much pain you would be in during those final moments. This is why I would NOT put guillotine first on my list.

Many torture device was, in fact, not utilize. For example the pear of anguish. It's in fact not possible to "open" the mouth to this extent (or other holes...) with that. The iron maiden was also just a fashion device but not actually use as a torture device. But... there was sooo many other torture. Source : The torture museum in Lyon - France.

I love how I’m watching this at night, I’m not gonna sleep now 😅(Don’t tell my mom) but I have to watch Kris, I HAVE TO!

1) Guillotine 2) Keel Hauling 3) Hanging 4) Drawing and Quartering 5) Iron Maiden 6) Boiling 7) Pear of Anguish 8) Blood Eagle 9) Roman Candle 10) Crucifixion 11) Brazen Bull 12) Scaphism 13) Rat Torture

I love Iron Maiden and ghost, I was at a ghost concert once and it was awesome

Excited for this one!!!!! On a side note, you should totally do a video of things you have started to find interesting or different being in Texas or the USA compared to Canada. Hope your adjusting well and enjoying it ❤

Thank you for the Ghost reference. I love it.

ohh i love the "bloody eagle!" ive heard a lot about it, it was apparently a fantasy way of torture and did not actually happen, though it was quite cool!

12:31 hearing "Rats" by Ghost had me ascending! Another banger video as always Kris!

21:26 KRIS MAKING A GHOST REFERENCE IN HER VIDEO OMG ❤ RATS OOWWWAAAAAAAAOHHHHHHH

I used to watch you a while back but stoped and I finally found your channel again and now I'm just watching all your videos 😊

Are we just going to brush over the Ghost reference that Jay just CASUALLY threw in there?😂

Jay with the massive awesomesauce points for the few seconds of Ghost.

Hey Kris , I’m so happy for you and proud of you for making that big leap in ur life .Us viewers wanna see u happy !

Okay I haven't started the video yet but if she doesn't talk about how dying of rage is absolutely horrible, I'll cry

Her new hair color is very pretty, it makes her blue eyes really stand out. Never realized her eyes were so blue until now...
