No 10. Death by a Thousand Cuts(Ling Chi)

Originally from China, this was one of the most brutal execution methods ever fashioned. It was in use roughly from the year 900, until it was banned in 1905.

 It was a punishment reserved only for the harshest of crimes, such as treason and fratricide. 


During this procedure, sharp knife was used to kill the criminal, gradually removing portions of his flesh over a long period of time.

The victim was tied to a wooden frame, usually in a public place.. The flesh was then sliced from the body, at first only from victim’s breasts and thigs. 


Then his limbs were gradually amputated, followed by ears, nose and genitals. 


After 10-20 minutes, victim was decapitated or stabbed to the heart. During the execution, opium was sometimes administered as an act of mercy.


Lingchi was reserved for crimes viewed as especially severe, such as high treason, patricide, or matricide. Some Westerners were executed in this manner. 


Even after the practice was outlawed, the concept itself has still appeared across many types of media.
