Immolation was usually a punishment reserved for crimes related to heresy in the west, not witchcraft. Most suspected witches were hanged. The mindset was that (at least partially) the length of the punishment compared to others would allow for the condemned to repent before death.
Also adds to the mindset that if you die while you're not touching the ground it acts as a curse
I always thought burnings were to purify the soul before death and as such act as a mercy to the afflicted, however cruel it was beforehand.

Saudi Arabia still practice all of this, probably the reason why crime rate in that country are so low compared to the USA. People in Saudi leave their shops, stalls and businesses when they hear call of prayer and nobody steal anything.
Can you leave anything valuable on the roadside in America and expect nobody to steal it?
The crime rate in Japan, Australia & Norway is far lower than that of Saudi Arabia, without having the need to enforce any of those types of punishments. Also, in Saudi Arabia, there's simply no free media, so there's no way of knowing if such crimes are taking place. Furthermore, in medieval times, crime rates were even higher, even with those types of punishments in effect. This shows, there's absolutely no correlation between the two. Plus, countries like Sudan, Yemen, Somalia and others such, also have have those types of punishments and yet has one of the highest crime rates in the World. Why do you think, that is? It's because Sudan, Yemen, Somalia and other such countries have political instability, poverty, turmoil and other such challenges, which is why the crime rates are high. No matter, what punishment you implement, it has little to no effect on the overall crime rate in the country. It has more to do with the stability, welfare, well being and other such qualities, in a particular country. You have an answer for all of that, as well?
@@Maarij_Nomani_Norway has only a population of 5 million, of which 1 million live in the urban area of Oslo. so Norway has a very very low population density. It is also one of the richest countries. Saudi‘s capital has a bigger population than the entirety of Norway.
Btw, in 2011 one of the most deadliest mass shootings in global history (~4th place) happened in Norway.
In Japan the laws are very very strict and they have other harsh punishments. The police is also regularly committing police brutality to get people to confess their crime.
Furthermore, Japanese culture very honor based and someone would rather kill himself than kill someone else. Shunning people who are different is also commonly done which forces people to fall in line.
Btw, crimes against politicians are higher in Japan than in any western country. 2nd btw, the crimes committed in Japan are unbelievably gruesome and gross, one example: the murder of Junko Furuta.
@@Maarij_Nomani_Sudan, Somalia and Yemen are in a civil war.
No, pretty sure that’s just the religion.
Well if you don't register any crime, then obviously crime rates will be low. How about japan, sweden and some other European countries. They have even lower crime rates than the made up crime rates of saudi Arabia. Imagine getting hanged for saying that the earth is not flat as it is written in koran.
As a Singaporean, I can tell you that canning is still used as a punishment but it is not as brutal as it is said to be and is only a sentence for crimes that involved invading someone's personal space such as molesting. For small crimes such as theft will be punished with a fine, a few months jail sentence or community service. When canning is carried out, the justice system will allow you to heal your wound for a month or two before delivering the next stroke or next few strokes, Singapore's justice system is strict not cruel

@@silverhawkscape2677 why the un? The only thing simple history showed in the video that is endorsed in countries with high human rights is the chemical castration at the end of the video. The other stuff was in country where human rights don't exist because religion
"Human right dont exist because of relligion"
If you really know Islam, then should know
-> Mother are valued highly as they are the one who sacrifice their life and bring you to this world.
-> Parents are responsible by relligion to take care of their children, as they are responsible from bringing their children to this world.
-> If a muslim is the majority in the area, they must protect the non-muslim from outside threat, this include letting them to pray on their own belief.
-> Peoples with wealth are endorsed to help out the poor.
-> Killing others are probihited.
-> Leader muct act for whats the best of the peoples.
-> Stealing and corruption are greatly probihited, as it makes lots of people suffers.
-> At wartime, they are not allowed to kill Children, woman, old peoples, animal (except for eating) or the people that run away, they have to treat PoW with respect and ot enforcing Islam to them, they are also not allowed to destroy buildings, including temples and Church.
-> If non Muslim ask for protection and they didn't threat the Muslim, then the muslim are obliged to protect them (Like Salladin who escorted his enemy family to safety, even though the enemy can't fulfill his promise to escape the town and was ordered to defense it agains Salladin troop)
If you find they are saying they are "Islam" yet they didnt do all that, chances are their knowledge of their own relligion is quote shallow, think of it like school, there are students who will always says they arevfrom that school, yet their behavior dont reflect the school policy.
Chemical castration, despite the name, doesn’t actually involve losing any body parts. Rather it means taking pills that prevents said parts from operating naturally. This variation is usually reversible.
I’m surprised this video didn’t mention the use of eunuchs in the Ottoman and Chinese Empires to produce civil servants and royal courtiers who had no ability to form their own dynasties and thus theoretically would be loyal to the ruler. Of course, in practice these eunuchs still often amassed power for themselves even with nobody to pass it down to.
Also eunuchs were prominent in the Late Roman and Byzantine Empire
More modern studies have shown that it is way more permanent than once believed.
Alan Turning, the genius computer scientist who broke the German enigma code in WW2 was discovered to be homosexual. He was chemically castrated and died of complications. Remember his name.
It's not as casual and safe as you make it sound. In many cases the effects can be permanent and lead to other complications.
I volunter you to undergo it
It's reversible, as you said, so no harm in trying it out, right?

I dont know. Having my my head quickly taken off sounds A LOT more humane of execusion than its given credit for.
There are theories that you may be conscious when your head rolls, but that can very easily be rapid eye movement and nerves twitching.
I'd take that over lethal injection or God forbidding, life in prison, where you're going to suffer a harsh and hopeless life so you may suffer a the hand of justice. I watched a few videos of inmates that would rather face a firing squad than continue to rot away in a jail cell.
Life in prison is just slavery but with taxpayers' money. Also, slitting the throat to just enough to where you don't sever the spinal cord is the most humane way to kill anything. oxygen stops flowing to the brain, you lose consciousness, and you lose all senses without even feeling the blade if it's sharp enough.
There are fates worse than de@th.

Lethal injection is by far the best.
Are you drunk?
You get an injection that makes you sleep.
Then another one that stops your breathing.
That vs severe trauma to your head? Remind me to never listen to anything else you ever say.
I even heard of some inmate spending the rest of his life in prison who requested the death penalty, but it was rejected. I’m sure he’s miserable.

Here’s one of them, forcing you to confess to something you didn’t do, we still have this happen all the time during court hearings only difference being we don’t torture you instead just giving a longer sentence if found guilty
yep... here in Australia we got a new one... if a convicted killer does not confess where the body is, they will never be released on parole.
Anyone with a tiny shred of intelligence (which no one has in Australia anymore) can see this law rewarding real killers and punishing the innocent... since obviously the innocent cannot know where the body is.
It comes down to the very very arrogant assumption that a person 'IS' guilty of murder with absolute certainty if convicted of murder.... this goes well beyond convicting a person based on 'beyond reasonable doubt'

1:35 As a Bruneian, I saw this demonstration by the Police Force when I was in Secondary School.
You forgot the most acient one:
Penal labor. By putting convicts to work on physical goverment projects, such as mining, maintainance, manufacture, farming, and other forms of labor, convicts will be put to works in order to produce cheap goods for the state or a company affiliated to the prison. Depending on the state, they could get payed way below the minimun wage salary which could be claimed once they were realesed or if you got permition, send it to a familiy member or friend, but some don´t pay them at all. It is almost institucional slavery, but usually you get the choice to accept the job, and your human rights are still in place except for the rights that the state provide to you since you are temporaly or indifenetly no longer a civilian.
It is a very common practice to use penal labor for a state to mine the neccesary materials to get concrete with minimal tools.
I've done time a few times. I've done it as a max custody inmate (really sucks) and I've been put on work crews and of course general population. My time flew by when they had me working and some of the work was brutal. But mc is way more difficult. GP is the easiest but the days/weeks/years go by so slow. I don't know if working is better for everyone, but I didn't get into trouble and sent to MC . And the many months just flew by. Slavery? I don't think so. But everyone has to make everything about race. And I Ain't White so don't try pulling that bs
@@eddybig2781 >Slavery is now directly associated with racism now
It would be more accurate to say it is associated with xenophobia when groups come into conflict or break the rules, but seriously dude, the last part is very misleading at best.
Where did I said anything about race when I was comparing being employed as forced labor to the state to being a commodity?
Penal labor as a punishment is as old as farming, prostitution and mercenary work, and those are the oldest profesions on human history.
Seriously, you want to stop people hearing about raceracerace all the time, start with not associating the word itself with a specific group or event when it's being used a lot by many different groups in way to many periods of time all over thousands, hundreds of years of human history, through so many civs we don't even know all of them.

Good to hear 👍
In Malaysia, caning is used as a form of corporal punishment and is normally done in prisons. Caning punishment will be received if the convict is charged with rape, violence, drug trafficking, illegal immigration, bribery, illegal moneylending and criminal breach of trust. For example, a convict will be imprisoned between 8 to 30 years with whipping not less than 10 whips for sexual assault. The process is done where the convict (butt naked) is tied on a A-shape frame, the lower back and upper thighs is protected by a torso-shield and the caning punishment is then proceeded.

5:30 A common misconception about immolation is that the victims died by the fire. This was not the case. In most cases, the executioner choked them shortly before the fire was lit, and only their dead body was burnt. So, in fact, it wasn't death by fire. This is not to say it never happened, but it was the exception, not the rule.
When someone was burned at the stake they would sometimes die of hypothermia, they would lose so much skin they couldn't keep warm, countless people have lost their lives in cold weather because a fire without clothes and/or shelter is not always enough.
Me in the 1800s watching my wife get immolation after me lying to the people of my village that she committed witchcraft (she cheated on me so now she burns)
Depends on your country but in the UK at least, anti-witchcraft laws were gone by then. In fact, it was made a criminal offense to even accuse anyone of being a witch in 1735, and this law was passed overwhelmingly in parliament.

Saudi Arabia is a prominent western ally.
@@52flyingbicyclesThey also have some of the worst human rights records in the modern day. They are probably in the top 5-10 of that list but all the others are places like china, afganistan, north korea and russia. And they work with all those before mentioned countries as well so i wouldnt call them ”prominent western ally”. They are just a awful dictatorship that has to suck up to western countries to not lose their power
imagine the electric chair was so old and forgotten and we somehow came up with the same idea
Alhamdulilah that Saudi Arabia still practises Sharia law, it is one of the main reasons for peacefulnes and low criminality in the country.
Crassus was never a legionnaire. Given his social class, he would started his military career as a tribune. At the time of the Third Servile War revolt, he was legate, ie, general in charge of several legions.
Singapur (Singapore) doesn't has flogging because Islam, it is not even an Islam majority country. They inherit flogging from the British colonial laws.
it was a muslim country but extreme massacre of muslims by invaders made them minority, but still they are the largest minority of singapore
3:58 saudi arabia still use sord to kill the man who murder a human being!! you think that is not good but try to imagine that human is your mother or son!!!

A little bit of clarification for Flogging in Malaysia. Yes it is recognized as a form of punishment but it is done according to islamic rites, not inspired by the european medieval form of punishment. Furthermore, all executions and punishments are done in complete privacy and if it is recorded, you are not allowed to release the footage to the public. However, judging by the inability to release footage of flogging to the public in Malaysia, i highly doubt you are able to record it in the first place. No spectators are also allowed to watch the execution in the first place.
The tool used for the execution is also not a some kind of leash. The tool is actually a long object that looks like a very long ruler made of bamboo (known as "rotan" in Malay.)
The wrongdoer will receive the flogging at the buttocks, not on the back and the effect of the flogging will result in painful wounds and cuts but doesn't result in bleeding.
Yup this is how you teach adult that do crimes! Not pampering them on a 5 star cell and give them food 24/7 😂😂😂 This is called get away easily! And also wasting tax payer money!
@@haziq0007 Evidence supports treating prisoners with respect, it lowers the prison population and they're less likely to reoffend, a true waste of tax payer money would be keeping someone like El Chapo in prison instead of executing him considering the amount of trouble his existence causes, same goes for the other people under the same prison
@@haziq0007Five star? They are in fear of being stabbed to death and rapped and eat horrible food. Nothing five star about that. They are also stuffed in solitary confinement where they slowly lose their minds.

The question was a sack of gunpowder sometimes tied around the victim's neck during burning to end the suffering a lot quicker?
Controversial opinion: if some of these are still used today, we would not have half of the bs we have today.
It would make the offenders rally together and collapse the government and country so no

I can't believe they still use crucifixion as punishment. Here in Philippines, we use crucifixion as a tradition during holy weeks

Chemical castration seems like about the nicest punishment that you could give to a rapist or kiddy diddler. A heck of a lot nicer than I would be.
It just means they can't get anybody pregnant.
It bolsters their actions in many cases.

In Philippines Crusixion is still practiced in a religious way every Holy Week(early april). Usually there are people who volunteer themselves to be crucified.
Basically Saudi Arabia takes all the L's
"an eye for an eye" in its original sense was most certainly NOT a maxim or manner of speech. Hammurabi's Code was the first set of laws handed down from authority to subjects, and was quie literal. If a man attacked you, or otherwise caused you harm, and you lost an eye as a result, you were allowed to pluck the eye of the offender. An eye, for an eye. Its only fallen into obscurity and used as a turn of speech because of more modern laws, which dictate that criminals should all be concentrated together with no attempt at reformation or repentance.
BEHEADING IS BETTER THAN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR
They forgot to mention burning a basket full of black cats, during a burn at the stake.
Sati (also called suttee) is the practice among some Hindu communities by which a recently widowed woman by use of force or coercion commits suicide as a result of her husband's death. The best known form of sati is when a woman burns to death on her husband's funeral pyre.
Has anyone noticed the pattern to what continents all this medieval tortures still continue and then wonder why they aren't considered as civilised
So you’re saying you weren’t civilized before and if you actually look at it, you see that you guys have a higher crime rates than that region
Hi Simple history Im 18 and I’ve be writing down in blank pages of books and learning about your videos and I started from your oldest video (first) and I’m up to (attack of the dead men) I’m gonna keep going till this video and catch up your amazing at history and I enjoy your videos thanks callum 😁

Thanks mate
Dont mean to burst your bubble but find a better source of information than youtube. This guy spreads misinformation by using half assed Wikipedia research, using most of his information out of context and spreading half truths and out right false information. His videos are interesting but worthless as a history source
A few years ago, I had a part time job selling tickets for events. One of my colleagues took a call from a woman who was interested in the Easter Passion Play put on by a church in Toronto. She understood that the crucifixion of Jesus was to be part of the play and asked whether it would be a REAL crucifixion. She was disappointed when my colleague said it would only be a simulated crucifixion. We suspect from the woman's accent that she was from the Philippines where I understand devout Christians routinely crucify themselves - TEMPORARILY!! - in fits of religious devotion.
whaa??
Flogging still occurs in Ecuador, Dominican Republic(not formally), Cuba(not formally) and Brazil(not formally).

Medieval punishments for a medieval religion
Go to london and Indiana and say this again
3:21 i liked how you connected the saudi execution (the quickest death) to the jihadi john videos which he cuts his victims throats, beheading in islam is done from the back of the neck slicing the spinal cord not from the throat side like most of isis videos (the terrorist group) did. I would like to suggest to you that you search more about beheading and compare it to other “merciful” execution methods before calling it barbaric. one more thing if the process of the execution is painless whats the point then of calling it a punishment? like if a child rapist committed such crime should the rapist have a merciful death?
That's absolutely right
The title of the video should have been "Medieval Punishments that are probably still happening in Saudi Arabia"
Fun Fact: imprisonment is a medieval punishment made by Muslims as we know it today at the Islamic golden age. it STILL EXIST Today! it's a very inefficient punishment since it just isolate you from the civilized capitalistic society and connects you to the criminal communist society, they survive by spending our tax money, like parasites. and they get out the prison to be a worse criminal, as people are the summation of the most people they spends time with, which is in this case, CRIMINALS.
it also can be a blessing for some people. they don't need to work, and still have bed, toilet, food, friends, hobbies. IMPRISONMENT IS BY FAR THE MOST INAFFICIENT PUNISHMENT SINCE THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT.

Exelent explanation, but I think there is a mistake regarding the "castrati": the enlarged ribcage is not a consequence of lack of testosterone but of training, wich consisted for the professional singers in up to 6 hours a day of breathing exercises and singing drills; the castration was to stop puberty and to maintain a high pitch voice typical of children.
For those wondering my source is from an article published on an italian magazine, "Focus" dedicated to Farinelli, a famous italian castrated singer.

Flogging: In 1990s, I met someone who met that punishment in Pakistan. He was arrested for the illegal possession of pistol (he bought it in the town of Darra). And he said that was whipped 50 times in the street.
9:14 As an argentinian, i dont know where did you got that information but the only castration my country accepts its the domestic pet one.
Should also mention the tortures US practices in their overseas prison. What law did they use for those are still unknown.
That would ruin their good guy image
oh but they won't, the USA/Europe must represent the good guys, hence why they always said "this practice last in europe until [insert times] while it is still practiced in [insert muslim countries] currently"
No no ignore the CIA crimes or the inhuman tortures of innocent people, did you forget this is all about image we want the world to know who to stand with and who to go against ❤️
