A couple of little known facts about the electric chair. 1 The first electric chair was proposed by Thomas Edison. The same guy who gave us the lightbulb and the recorder also brought us one of the most horrible executions in history. 2 Emperor Menelik of Ethiopia, in a program to modernize his country imported an electric chair to be used as the new form of execution in his country. When it arrived it was discovered that there was no electrical service in his country so it could not be used. The king later used this device as a chair.
@tomhaskett51612 жыл бұрын
Edison was promoting DC electricity, Westinghouse was pushing AC. Edison convinced the prison authorities to use AC fot the execution, to show how dangerous it was. The execution was petformed the man took a long time to expire.

Voltage in this case is the electromotive force. Potential is more for open circuit or electrostatic energy. Very much like potential energy can be thought of a rock sitting at the top of a cliff. Using the garden hose analogy, The voltage would be something like the speed of the water flowing through the hose while current is represented by the cross sectional area of the water in the hose.

We walked down death row, to processing & last rights & final wiil & than to the chair. We stood there & looked at the chair & they explained everything about it. Than they said whose first. They told us once you walk in you don't walk out. They strapped each one of us in & put leather face mask on us (smelled like you can't explain) closed the doors (loud as hell & make do everything possible to get out of chair & than you hear the curtain open.

@@charlesciminera5881 there is a vast difference between murder of an innocent life and the punishment of someone who has crossed that line. The rules (law) of what the penalty constitutes wasn't arbitrarily changed to execute one criminal after the fact of his crime. It existed when he chose to commit the crime. He just didn't care, he wanted what he wanted and got what he asked for. His victim is dead and now so is he.

If the sentence says “until death”, “until dead” “until death occurs”, “until you are dead”.....they can re-roll, re-load, re-infuse, leave hanging, even if the neck didn’t break right, as long as it takes. Generally if the person isn’t dead after the second or third try the prison warden halts the execution until he/she gets further guidance. But it’s not mandatory; simply something that is generally done. Botched executions have been rescheduled. Sometimes is kinder not to halt the botched execution but to proceed and finish it. In any case, it’s a slippery slope.

Yeah, but I always think about the other people that participate, like the people that walk him into the chamber, the people that strap him down, the governor that can choose to call off the execution or not, the president of the united states that could grant clemency if he wanted, the warden (in some cases) that nods to the executioner to proceed, the people that physically built the chair and the switches that control it, the jury that convicted him, the prosecutor that pushed for the death sentence, the judge that imposed the sentence, the people that wrote the laws, and society itself that allows that form of punishment. Its really a lot of people that execute someone, not just the person who throws a switch if you think about it. (by the way in some states they have multiple switches where only one switch works, so 2 or 3 people throw a switch but only one switch actually does the killing, and nobody knows what switch did it or who actually did it.)

@swistedfilms Жыл бұрын
It's my understanding that in modern times there are two people who press the button simultaneously and a randomizer decides which switch is used. That way neither person knows which one actually threw the switch. They did a similar thing for firing squads: all but one rifle had blanks, that way none of the men knew which one made the kill. I was watching a different video and one of the comments mentioned that an older executioner committed suicide after he died, presumably feeling guilty about what he'd done. I'm not going to say the people who do it are heartless. Honestly, they're just people with a nasty job to do. If it wasn't them it would be somebody else.

The first shock is to knock out your central nervous system and basically render you unconscious when it hits your central nervous system, you lose bodily function and can't control your bowels and your bladder that's why they stuff cotton up their rear end, and put an adult diaper on them so they don't piss and shit themselves. The first shock takes about thirty seconds then they lower the voltage and the amps to basically cause the heart to stop beating this usually is to last between 1-3 minutes and then back up to the original voltage to kill the brain. Which takes another 30 seconds to a minute and then death ensues. Afterwards the doctor checks to see if there's a heart beat if there's not, the electrocution did it's job. If it doesn't and there's a heartbeat, then they go back to the low amp/voltage until the heart stops beating.

In Texas, back in the days where they had and used the electric chair, the warden of the Huntsville Unit would ask the condemned inmate to "have a seat please" as he entered the execution chamber. "Have A Seat Please" was later used as the title of a book written by reporter Don Reid, who witnessed 189 executions at the Huntsville Unit from the thirties until the early sixties.

@@womanofsteel8948 In a judicial electrocution, you're not in an ideal position to get killed. To get to the brain, they have to put enough current to get through the skull. They're not using the electricity to just induce a seizure and fibrillation, they want enough to knock you unconscious with the first jolt and destroy your brain and heart. They normally start off with a high voltage, and then go lower with more amps to cook you more or less. One of the ironies in executions is the method chosen isn't necessarily to ease the suffering of the condemned, but the witnesses. Ideally, they would want it to appear they could just turn someone off bloodlessly and without any movement. Electrocutions were supposed to be an improvement on hanging (the gas chamber also was more 'civilized'). Whether you're for it, or against it, it should be shocking, as taking a life is. I wouldn't want it too agreeable. They also should use the old English method, and when execution time rolls around, it's within seconds of taking the condemned out of the cell (they were moved to a cell a few days previously that was like 10 feet from the gallows through a wardrobe that was a hidden door). Minimize the time of ultimate terror, instead of making a spectacle about how the government is going to kill you now.

Oh, I know, many people, mostly Americans, are like Muslims, death loving, death is an answer to any problem, exactly why the US society is so bloody violent. If the justice machine makes a "mistake" to execute an innocent, the justice staff, police, public prosecutor, judge, jury, are all guilty, and should be punished severely. Then there will be no more death penalties. A strict and lifelong prison sentence where the prisoner has to earn his own upkeep is a much better punishment, and yes, if the prisoner is innocent he can be set free and compensated for his time.
