Chavoret Jaruboon known as the last executioner in Thailand.

In 2002 the law changed from firing squad to lethal injection.
Beheading was the law before 1934.

I have always stated a well set up execution chamber with minimum SIX rifles automatically fired at the 4 square inches of the Heart, will instantly kill anyone with zero pain, cheaper than anything else as all countries have bullets aplenty and rifles does away with human intervention and mistakes .

Remember this?

Bernie... the bolt!

You could have a victim or a nominated family member sit in the observation room and guide the crossbow onto the apple that has a detonator on it, just in case the perp has a hard heart.

I reckon the fourth contestant here would be a shoe-in to be in the firing squad.

If I had to choose between a firing squad or a 110 year old electric chair I know which way I'd go, in fact I think I'd prefer it to the needle. When I had an operation, under general anesthetic, last year I made a conscious effort to memorize the number of counts I made after the gas was 1st applied = got to 9.

Aagh that brings back too many memories of trips to the dentist and being gassed before an extraction ....... only ever got to five or six, but still have memory of a dream whilst I was "out".
Had the feeling I was bouncing along a castle ramparts on me bum :shock: Can only assume as the dentist pulled each of the three teeth he pulled me off the chair and I landed back after each pull giving my brain the impression I was bouncing ......... wierd things that stay with you for 60 odd years :lol:

Crucifixions could draw a well-oiled and enthusiastic crowd if they were re-introduced.

Stoning parties were quite popular .... and may be witch ducking on public holidays at Nong Prajak (could get quite a big Thai audience for that one)

The latter would be a huge hit if they brought back those over-sized ducks that were floating around Nong Prajak a few years ago.

Great idea uncle, attach one witch to one duck, and if it rolls over and she drowns she was innocent but if she keeps afloat she MUST be a witch that needs to be dealt with by KP's firing squad
