all those christians would be a bit different if they knew how much Jesus was into bum love.
it's probably because Mary Magdalan was slack in the clunge from all her whoring

No, that's electrocution.
So I'm told.

and hanging.
if you hang someone from too high a height, you can rip their head off. Too short a height, you don't break the neck and they choke to death. There's a mathematical formula for the ideal length of rope for your height and weight. I'll find it at some point. WHAT?! I like to be well researched...

Surely too short a height
And they just end up standing on the ground? Which would just be embarrassing for all concerned.
think you meant too much/too little slack /pedant

That would be fun to watch though.
The prisoner could be released with a "don't do it again" and a thick ear.

Possibly a myth
But they apparently had to change the sentence from "Hanged" to "Hanged from the neck until dead", as someone got them to stop when someone was choking, and said that the sentence had been carried out, so let him go.

Bastard party pooper.

They used to let you go if the trapdoor failed 3 times
(since it was deemed to be an act of God)
Meaning that if you could get hanged after a storm, you had a better chance of survival due to the wood swelling from the moisture.*

*may not be true, only half remembered, probably apocryphal anyway

too short a drop then?

Don't you just shit yourself when hanged?
Unless you had a stiffy to start off with.

Look up auto-erotic asphyxiation
But not at work.

I think not, even at home.

I was home just before it was on
Had the option of watching the first part and waiting 2 weeks for the rest, or just watching it after uni (no sky here :( ), so not seen it yet

the woman who plays Adora Belle is rather attractive in a stern sort of way.
