Boiling Boiling in oil, water or wine was especially popular in Russia during the reign of Ivan the Terrible. The sentenced person was put into a cauldron filled with liquid. Hands were threaded into special rings mounted in the cauldron. Then the cauldron was put on fire and began to slowly heat up. As a result, the man was boiled alive. Such an execution was applied in Russia to state traitors. However, this view looks humane in comparison with the execution called "Walking in a circle" - one of the most cruel methods used in Russia. The condemned had his stomach ripped open in the intestines, but so that he would not die too quickly from loss of blood. Then they removed the intestine, nailed one end of it to a tree and forced the executed to walk around the tree in a circle. Wheeling Wheeling became widespread in the era of Peter. The condemned was tied to the log Andreevsky cross fixed on the scaffold. Notches were made on the rays of the cross. The offender was stretched face up on the cross in such a way that each of his limbs lay on the beams, and the places where the limbs were bent were on the recesses. The executioner struck one blow after another with a quadrangular iron crowbar, gradually breaking bones at the bends of his arms and legs. The work of crying ended with two or three precise blows to the stomach, with the help of which the ridge was broken. The body of the broken offender was connected so that the heels converged with the back of the head, laid on a horizontal wheel and in this position left to die. The last time such an execution was applied in Russia was to the participants in the Pugachev riot. Impalement Similar to quartering, impalement was usually applied to rioters or traitors to thieves. So Zarutsky, an accomplice of Marina Mnishek, was executed in 1614. During the execution, the executioner drove a stake into the human body with a hammer, then the stake was placed vertically. The executed gradually, under the weight of his own body, began to slide down. After a few hours, the stake came out through his chest or neck. Sometimes a crossbar was made on the stake, which stopped the movement of the body, not allowing the stake to reach the heart. This method significantly extended the time of painful death. Until the 18th century, impalement was a very common form of execution among the Zaporozhye Cossacks. Smaller colas were used to punish rapists - they drove a stake into their hearts, as well as against mothers who had infants.
