MARK 4 👹
This is the most ridiculous Vile evil thing I’ve ever seen in my life. There is no such thing. Do not buy into the fear of this ridiculous device.
they stuffed their burning bodies into the neck and screamed out the eye holes, if it were just a movie i’d complement the director (Tarantino be darned) , but to think this was really done is horrifying .…
Fake. The actual USE of the iron maiden is widely considered to be pure myth as reported by “Live Science- 2016,” “Gizmodo 2018” and there is NO evidence that the device itself existed prior to the 19th century ( Graf, Klaus (June 21, 2001)). Despite all this, shows like this continue to push a false narrative that the device was used in such a fashion that it could theoretically be used to extract information (or torture) prisoners “non-fatally.” They didn’t even believe germs existed yet. So to think they could throw someone in a device like this, pull them out and keep them alive is propositus.
I think the bull or the maiden is the worst way to die
Iron maiden was never used
This video is well done and informative and even enjoyable if you like horror movies.
However, “Dark ages” is an inherently pejorative term and no longer used in scholarship. The era is better referred to as the early middle ages or the middle ages.
OK bye. It’s been proven the Iron Maiden was a Victorian invention. A museum attraction never used in the Middle ages or any other time. This tells me your research is suspect on everything else.
The terrifying is suffering and torture I just hate that
The Iron Maiden was not used in the Middle Ages. The history channel new credibility.
You’ve happily mixing Victorian fantasies and ancient Greek stories into the Medieval times. Which, as a 1000-year long period, is way too complex for a 10 minutes video, even about one specific subject. Also, the rack came to use long after the Medieval period in England. The Spanish Inquisition used different (though not any less painful) methods. I suggest you stop calling this channel “History”.
Im Sicilian.. we should bring this back in Australia to make the young criminal peasants pay
I’d say we’re living in dark ages here in 2023.…..
Aamrica and israeel people
Mental health 😅😅😅 pleace mental hospital
It is truly simple to elicit a confession immediately from someone. However, discovering the truths they dare not reveal is entirely different.
The Middle Ages was fascinating but for certain things it was really cruel and macabre
Nothing else going on? Anyone . Couldn’t find something else to do with there time 😂
That’s why if i was that guy i wouldn’t move a muscle for however it takes until extraction of the promise of the lost treasure secrets of ancient Egypt. Just in case.
I thought the iron maiden wasn’t a real thing? I heard it was pieced together from old artifacts by a musuem to create a more interesting attraction, and a story was given to it. And that would have happened in modern history.
Wonder if these items would work on the floor of the senate. Or at least get an answer to a question. Without bla bla bla.
Awesome to see Dr Wagner here really enjoy his react videos great content!
We need to use these items in senate meetings. Might get an answer
Thought the Iron Maiden wasn’t real?
Iron maidens are a myth
Why isn’t this in prison
the iron maiden was the chokey back then
Shout out to my boy Dr. Cord Whitaker!
There is no historical evidence that the Iron Maiden device ever existed and the only description of this device it’s from the 19th century. No serious historian would ever say that this was a real device used in the Middle Ages.
