Top 10 Most Gruesome Torture In History

10) The Rack


The rack is designed to dislocate every single joint in its victim's body. The victim is layed down on it., with his wrists tied above his head on the table, and his feet chained to the other end. While interrogating, victim's body is then pulled in opposite directions by turning the rollers, resulting in broken limbs and eventually ripped from the victim's body.

9)Catherine Wheel


The wheel one of the most common form of execution in Germany during the Middle Ages. The victim had each of his limbs spread apart and tied to the to each side of the wheel, as the torturer simultaneously smashed the victim's limbs with an iron hammer to break them in numerous places. Once their limbs were broken, they were place on top of a tall pole so the birds could feed on the victim's flesh while still alive.

8)Iron Maiden


Iron maiden is a torture device, consisting of an iron cabinet with a hinged front and spike covered interior. The victims was placed inside, and the doors shut slowly, so that the very sharp points penetrated his arms and legs in several places, and his belly and chest, and his bladder and the root of his member, and his eyes, and his shoulders, and his buttocks.


7)Interrogation Chair


The Interrogation Chair was a terrible, intimidating torture device that was added to dungeons in the Middle Ages. The chair was layered with 500 to 1,500 spikes on every surface with tight straps to restrain its victim. A fire was usually kindled under the iron chair to make it reach a horrible scalding point.

6)Head Crusher


This method is usually used in the Southern and South-Eastern Asia. The victim would be tied up with his head on a stone or a slightly extruded surface. A highly trained elephant  would slowly exert pressure on the victim's head. The victim would fell all the horrors of his frightful death before their head being crushed to death..

5)Rat Torture


This method involved having a cage with one open side strapped against the victim's stomach. The cage would then fill with a full grown rat and a then be heated.After That, the rat will have to burrow out through victim's stomach and intestines and eventually caused the victim died horribly.

4)Saw Torture


The victim is hung upside down,legs spread apart to allow the blood to rush to their heads and keep them concious during the long torture. The torturer would then saw through the victim's bodies through their crotches, sometimes up to their midsection before they pass out or die.

3)Water Torture


The water torture was employed by Japanese POW guards against Americans and Chinese during WWII. The victim was first bound with barbed wire and his mouth stuffed with rags. Next, the guards would snake a tube down the victim's nasal passage and bloat his belly with water. Once that was finished, the guards would kick and beat the poor sap's midsection until his stomach lining burst and death ensued.

2)Spanish Donkey


The Spanish Donkey gave victims an unimaginably horrible ride,as the victim is put astride, naked, on a donkey-like apparatus, which is actually a vertical wood board with a sharp V-shape wedge on top. Varying weights are then attached to their feet and eventually the victim's weight would cause wedge to slice through their bodies,splitting them in half.

1)Brazen Bull


The Brazen Bull was a hollow brass statue crafted to resembled a real bull. This method involved  victims placed inside, usually with their tongues cut out first. The door was shut sealing them in. Fires would then be lit around the bull, until the metal became "red hot" and casing the victim inside to slowly roast to death.
