According to legend, the ancient west invented a kind of laughing punishment to let the prisoners enjoy the pain, right?

/kloc-in the 0/7th century, the west invented a kind of torture, and through specific settings, prisoners died in laughter. This punishment was finally stifled by laughter, which was called "laughing punishment". So the above statement is correct.

Since ancient times, it is an eternal truth that grievances have a head, debts have a master, and killing people pays for their lives. The ways to punish prisoners in modern society are: fixed-term imprisonment, life imprisonment and death penalty.

In the process of execution of death penalty prisoners, it is very humanized now, and the way of shooting is adopted. In ancient times, it was not like this. At that time, there were inhuman ways to punish criminals who committed heinous crimes, such as year-end, car crack and buried alive.

In the west, there is a kind of punishment called "laughing punishment". The prisoner enjoys and cries, and finally laughs to death.

It dates back to ancient Rome. It is said that people coat their feet or other parts with salt water, honey and spices, and then animals, such as sheep, lick them. The prisoners laughed and died of fatigue and lack of brain oxygen.

In the17th century on the eve of modern times, this kind of punishment has been stereotyped in the west, which is used to punish court nobles, because it is more for their dignity.

Of course, the way to execute laughing punishment is not only to use the above methods, but also to increase the itching pain of prisoners by scratching with hands and using animal feathers and brushes.

The similarity of these execution methods is that by making the prisoner laugh, it causes physical discomfort and intense tension, which leads to the prisoner fainting, physical decline and eventually death.

In fact, there are similar punishments in China, which can be traced back to the Han Dynasty at the earliest, and most of them were executed by princes and nobles.
