Boiled Alive The Poisoner's Punishment in Henry VIII's Kitchens

Описание: 🔥 In 1531, a cook named Richard Roose was lowered into a cauldron of boiling water at Smithfield Market. Pulled out. Then plunged back in. Again and again until he died. This wasn't an accident—Henry VIII invented a brand new law just to make this execution legal.

⚔️ This documentary reveals the horrifying true story of England's most brutal execution method. When Bishop John Fisher's household was poisoned in February 1531, two people died from contaminated porridge. Henry VIII's paranoid fear of poisoning drove him to create the Acte for Poysoning—a law that made boiling alive the official penalty for poisoners. Richard Roose became the first victim of this unprecedented punishment.
