Blowing From A Cannon - History's Most HORRIFIC Execution Method

Throughout History and the centuries there were many different execution methods used to take the life of a condemned criminal or victim. Many armies and militaries around the world developed their own methods such as Vikings using keelhauling, forcing victims under the bottom of their boats. But one method used by the British Army in India was a horrific and brutal method used for centuries before by European colonisers. Being Blown From A Cannon or Gun was incredibly brutal, and it consisted of a person being tied to the end of a cannon.

As they were tied to the end of the barrel, the cannon would be fired and with this someone would be killed instantly. There were terrifying eye witness accounts that told of this execution method, and it showed how brutal the British could be in India. They used Blowing From A Cannon as a method of execution to put the population off joining uprisings and rebellions, but this did not work and hundreds of people over the years were executed on the cannon.
