Very hot. They are tightly bound as they face the rope.

That's amazing! I've never seen that before: stunning video.
The third hanging was definitely the best.
He was led in blindfold, unlike the first two – one of whom looked really happy – so he must have been terrified. You can see he nearly faints after the rope has been tightened around his neck and he is waiting to hang. And he seemed to take a long time to die, judging by the extended intervention of the doctor. AMAZING video: thank you so much.

Very nice THanks!

Fantastic hangings !! yes the third is the best one ! thanks !

It's a shame there is no footage taken from underneath the gallows at the moment they are hanged. It would have been amazing to see the actual moment of execution from under the trapdoor. I don't believe I've ever seen that. (I don't count Saddam)

Yeah the 3rd one was the best.....not too religious---he barely bowed to the Jap Priest--but he was cute and (barefooted too).
