What Is It Like To Be A Death Row Executioner 

What’s it like to be a Death Row executioner: *Pull the lever Kronk*

"The man who passes the sentence should swing the sword." Eddard Stark.

I’d act like I’m dead then “AHH, ha gotcha” then I’d die

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” ― Oscar Wilde

infographic be like: “When I was in death row, I- hol up *infographic show disappears*

Executioner:I'm sorry about this bro. Inmate:It's okay bro. Executioner:Close your eyes bro. Inmate:Ok bro.. 😔

Correctional Officer: “Any last words?” Condemned: “I am so sor-“ Firing Squad: “So anyway is just started blasting.”

“The more things change, the more they stay the same” - General Shepard

The inmate that is about to die looks like a fatter Bob Ross

How do 49 of 50 states offer a last meal if not all states even have a death penalty?

I wonder if any executioner ever said “Execute order 66” to the 66th inmate

I was hoping this would be more about how it effects them emotionally

"The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why." --Mark Twain

I could never take someone’s life without feeling extremely guilty

me: i cant have lethal injection executioner: why? me: im allergic to it and its very lethal to me

Fun facts about medieval executioners: They were paid by looting the body of the condemned (below the neck). They could perform weddings. They were required to stand at the back of the church. They were often poor and shop owners were known to give them food/goods as charity

Man:*volunteers to execute death row prisoner* Wife: how did you get all that money Man: 😰

None of these prison death torture stories ever bothered me till this one the narration music and script set it up perfectly 10/10

These guys have really loved their prison-themed videos lately. Must have watched Prison Break recently... Edit: wow, in one day this comment almost has more likes than my channel has subs

There was an executioner from Naples I have read about who was famous for making the execution as painless as possible. His family had used this tradition for generations before him. He would take a ball made of steel, and spin it while putting it against the convict’s back. This would end up putting them at ease, and making sure that it was the best death possible for them. He unfortunately ended up dying in an accident involving a horse, with the only other person to know the technique dying of disease shortly after, meaning this spin technique is lost forever.

“Haha, another day another death”

Me: looks at prisoner on death row Also me: who put bob ross on death row!?

There’s one crucial detail you guys forgot to mention. After each drug is administered, round of saline is administered to prevent blockage so the next drug isn’t clogged in the tubes.

2:19 The crowd was disgusted????????? They had literally gone to see someone die!!!!

You could say they have to execute their duties.

Surely the worst thing about being on death row is knowing exactly when, where and how your death will occur.

"Who wants to volunteer to execute the prisoner today?" "I wanna do it!" "Jones. Why are you always the first to volunteer? And why do you say it with such enthusiasm?"

4:18 "That way no one would know who fired the fatal shots - including the executioners themselves." Total BS. That is a fairy tale promulgated by ignorance. Anyone who has ever fired a live round from a rifle of a caliber used in a firing squad would have no doubt about whether the round they fired during an execution was blank or live. The difference experienced by the rifleman is unmistakable.

I don’t know, some people commit horrible crimes but I’ve always found it hard to tell myself that one person has the right to decide when other people die.

Executioner: Close your eyes bro. Prisoner: *Closes eyes* Executioner: Tell me what you see bro. Prisoner: Nothing bro. Executioner: That's what you'll see in a few minutes bro. Prisoner: Bro.

Alarm: *Goes off* Executioner: "Oh boi! Here I go killin' again!"

Inmate: You can choose your own meal? *calls Gordon Ramsay* aye I need a favor.

No one: Executioners in a Nutshell: Haha axe go chop

Did you know that you can’t smile and move your eyebrows at the same time? Just kidding I just wanted to make you smile:)

Idk why I’m so obsessed with videos on prison, I can’t get enough!

Why is Bob Ross on Death Row 🤣🤣🤣 0:16

I couldn’t do this job 😫

Infografics : uploads Everybody: rushes to comments

What it is like to be a Death Row Executioner: Pull the lever Kronk.

As I walk, all my life drifts before me And though the end is near, I'm not sorry Catch my soul, it's willing to fly away Mark my words, my soul lives on Don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to seek the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down here is just a strange illusion Yeah, hallowed be thy name Yeah, hallowed be thy name "Hallowed Be Thy Name" by Iron Maiden

"Pull the lever, Kronk." *Electrocutes warden* "Wrong leverrrrrrr!!!" "Oops..."

Oh I’m a pro at this I watched the “Iam a death row executioner”

Thank you, I’m writing a story that has an executioner and needed knowledge on what happens behind those doors as I haven’t witnessed an execution myself.

All the Texas prisoners staring at the guy who refused to eat his last meal like:

Robespierre: Allow me to introduce myself.

0:45 somebody forgot to draw eyes huh?

Bro why did you have to make the guy being executed look so much like Bob Ross

I would never be able to be a death row executioner. I would never be able to take a life. Even if they were a serial killer or terrorist

You got the firing squad thing backwards. One gun was loaded with a blank, the others all had live ammunition. Much easier and quicker to do it that way rather than relying on the accuracy of a single gunman.

“Another day another death”

I've been waiting for this video for so long 🤣

1:31 mans reading the book right to left like a man a culture

imagine turning the lever on and off with the electrical chair over and over

Murderer: *dies* Devil: *Hipity Hopety your soul is my property*

I love how this channel not only tells you what happens but also gives you background info on the topic

Do more death row stuff!! Love it

I just happened to wake up this morning and thought, hmmm, I wonder what it would be like to be a death row executioner? Thanks! 💚

I had a high school buddy who spent 13 years on Death Row....That was one scary dude!!!

hey infographics show, more military stories plz??? i love em so please more military stories thanks!!

Fun fact: There was a person by the nickname of Mad Dog who was executed via electric chair at the age of 36 in 1960. His name was Joseph Taborsky, and he was a serial killer who was sentenced to death after a string of robberies and murders in Connecticut in the 1950s

Next challenge:sending are least important writer to the electric chair (*girlfriend wasn’t happy*)

Commenters; allow me to ask you a question. Were you an executioner, would you prefer to know the details of crimes committed by the prisoners you execute, or know nothing and just get it over with? On one hand, knowing of their crimes may instill you with some sort of twisted sense of justice, whereas not knowing would make it easier to emotionally distance yourself from the act of killing. What do you guys think?

I love this channel

7:53. i know im late but thanks alot Lawrence

Imagine all the tactical nukes you would get. (MW2 reference)

2:08 Exceptions. Katherine Howard, 19,fifth wife of Henry the Eighth wrongfully sentenced to death for having an affair which did not happen. She practiced in her cell for hours before the date of her execution laying her head on the chopping block. When the time came she shakily walked up to the chopping block, lay her head down on it and started praying. At 19, an executioner swing his axe trying to hit her neck, but ended up hitting her back, taking the axe up and then chopping her head off. Anne Boleyn was granted a skilled French Swordsman for her death. What about Katherine?

I’m sorry but that ending was way too funny “It’s done, you have just executed someone. NOW CHECK OUT THESE VIDEOS NEXT”

Honestly, one of the jobs in this world I would want to avoid and would never want to have.

0:42 wait coryxkenshin is in prison?

I was watching the assassination of JFK Welcome to the comment section where everyone says weird stuff Edit: So for us sleep and death are equal?

How long does it take to pump out one of these informative animated and awesomely narrated episodes? I tend to binge watch on autoplay. Lol

Happy new year 🥳

The cartoon videos make it look less scary than it acually is lol

The most famous and prolific american executioner was Robert G Elliot, over his 40 years of service he executed over 600 people in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont. Because of his preference for elegantly tailored suits and his relaxed professional demeanor he became known as "The Gentleman Executioner Of New York State".

Hey Infographics, would make a video about the Mining Wars. Like the battle at mount Blair.

I love these stories about death and triumphs

In Florida when an execution is scheduled, the warden makes a selection from one of seven approved executioners, the list is not written down, it's kept in the wardens head, and no executioner is used twice in a row, a rendezvous is arraigned, and a prison van that is curtained off, so that the driver can't see who he's picking up is sent to transport them, the selected executioner, gets in the van, and dons a black hooded robe,that conceals their identity, and is taken to the prison where they do their task, after they do they are paid in cash, so that there is no public record of their identity, and they are taken back to where they were picked up, they take off the robe, and slip out the back of the van, so that the driver, never sees their face, the warden only knows their name, and their phone number,but otherwise cannot identify them, and the list is passed from warden to warden verbally, again so that there is no public record of their identity, but it's believed that all are members of law enforcement.

My video history has never looked so dark yet so colourful at the same time-

These video's are facinating! (I'm not a great speller but I try, so I'm sorry lol!) But, how, on EARTH, do you think of these things to talk about? I love all of your videos by the way! 😀🤗😁🥳💖🙌

0:21 NO! NOT BOB ROSS

Imagine having your last meal on death row then having a heart attack *BRUH*

9:33 Donald trump?! He he HE GREW A BEARD

"Another day, another death." 2020: Did someone talk about me?

The graphic of England also includes Wales a separate country but a greater video as always.

“So today we put our favorite guinea pig to the test by sending him to death row for 72hrs”

Infographics, how about a video on Albert Pierrepont? He did alot of preparation but from the condemned cell to a broken neck could take as little as 7 seconds.

Please do a video on Anton Lavey

Nobody: The executioner: *Has marshmallow hands*

150 dollars isnt worth a human soul no matter how terrible of a prison they are.

They’ve got Bob Ross behind bars @ 0:21 😂

The info graphic s show is basically a history class but better!

What if the accused is innocent? That would wreck the executioner's life.

1:47 Actually, the most common form of execution until the age of the Guillotine was hanging; Beheading was seen as a 'elegant' form of death, mostly reserved for the nobility. The highest of nobles would pay to be executed standing up, by a trained swordsman (instead of an axeman).

Can you talk about Raya and Sakina the two serial killers from Alexandria , I'm a huge fan of your videos

3:42 Looks like the Spotify logo on the trophy 😂

A way to get out an execution: ask for a big bowl of fruit that is out of season. When they say, “buts that’s out of season!” Just say, “oh I don’t mind waiting.”

Honestly I'm strongly against execution in all but the most extreme of circumstances. Dragging out a death sentence for 20+ years is do unbelievably unnecessary. Life in solitary confinement would be a far worse fate. Allowing old age and regret to seep into even the most hardened of murderers and making them slowly go mad with guilt. Not to mention never being allowed to see anyone, not even the guards.

in the 1970s New Jersey passed a never used Execution Law. according to the law the executioners were designated as "Execution Technicians" and were Civil Servants and covered by the law and job description along with secretaries, judges, etc.

9:07 "The more things change, the more they stay the same" * CoD MW2 flashbacks *

*In my country Nigeria, we have only hanging and firing squad. And for the firing squad, they all use live armour. Not just one of them.*
