  Imagine a hydrolic press pushing a coke can through your leg.

  […] which could easily crush your rib cage as it can only withstand 630 pounds of force.

  …How is this known? Also is that calculated with the skin/muscle/connective tissue buffer in mind? If so, that honestly raises even more questions…

    There is a method of execution known as pressing, which was the crushing of someone under immense weight. One famouse example occurred during the Salem which trials where a man, not a woman, got so sick of salems bullshit that the refused to talk when questioned and so the town tried to get a confession out of him buy stacking rocks on top of him, with the only respons being “more weight”. He eventually died from the crushing pressure of the rocks. Another famouse example involves an elephant crushing a person, though it was common to crush the limbs then the head.

      Thanks! I was aware of that execution method, but I’ve never read of a precise amount of weight employed in the process.

      The reason he refused to talk is that they were demanding he plead guilty or not guilty for being a witch. The accusers wanted his land, and if he was found guilty his land would be forfeited. But since he refused to plead, he couldn’t be legally found guilty, and his land was inherited by his kids. He was looking out for his family even if it meant a torturous death.
