capital

punishment executions The Taking of one

man's life for his crimes is it moral is

it ethical these are questions we're not

here to answer and Grant them what we

are here to bring you is cold hard truth

and the cold hard truth we are bringing

you today is what does it look like and

how effective is it we're going to be

testing out various execution methods

that are real world using the actual

weapons using the actual ammo and we

hope to give you guys a good visual

representation of what it looks like

because what is important here on Grand

Thum is what Micah science that's right

science and we are here to bring you

science in a world of wishy-washy

nothingness but before we do that we of

course have to thank the biggest sponsor

of the channel the biggest sponsor of

the channel is The Who mic soran desert

Institute that's right soran desert

Institute if you're looking to get your

start in Gunsmithing they are the people

to go to we love them they do sponsor

our science and it's not always good

science but it is still science so big

thank you to them and of course we

cannot forget who Micah rber arm which

we are the only influencer to have ever

bullied a real company into uh releasing

a Skittle sticker I know I don't know if

I'm proud great Optics great price we

love them and of course guys if you're

looking it better at dry firing mantis

turns your gun into a dry fire machine

we love it I use the hell out of it on

my off time just shooting the TV

constantly rest in peace Jennifer

Lawrence now my name is Michael Jones I

am a retired military Avid shooter and

uh big proponent of gun science and

today we're going to be answering some

very cool questions now what we have

right here is a ballistic Dummy from

ballistic dummy Labs a very good

approximation of what the human body is

we have bone we have blood we have

organs and this is about as close as we

can get without using what Micah real

human beings pedophiles which aren't

real human beings so we're going to use

these as a standin and we're going to be

starting with I think one of the most

interesting executions and that is how

they execute people in Utah thank you m

now Utah still has a firing squad now

firing squad used to be used a lot more

not so much anymore cuz they considered

inhumane and hopefully we can prove that

not true so in Utah what they use is

Winchester 94 rifles chambered in 3030

now we could not get Winchester uh 94s

and we couldn't get Henry's uh but we

told rossie that we were going to be

doing a execution video and they happily

sent us gun so thank you Rossy the

rounds used are Winchester silver tips

in 3030 this is a uh fairly old

ammunition and as much as we can tell

from our Insider Source uh these are the

actual rounds that are used and they

were very hard to source so in Utah they

use five 3030 rifles and one of those

rifles has a wax slug in it that way if

any of the guys you know are very sad

about shooting somebody then they can

you know mental gymnastic yeah like well

maybe I had the wax slug cuz apparently

it feels very much so like real recoil

so in any case only four of the rifles

are actually firing a slug so we have

four Shooters each firing one round of

Winchester 3030 Silver Tip into the

chest of the

dummy and we'll be doing our first

execution video so enough talk let's get

on with it just going to make sure our

guy right

here feel a little calm we have a little

bit of nicotine calm them down this is a

you know pretty intense so with all that

being

said let's kill him all right right here

we have our posi we have a stock fou

defense boido and then of course who are

you representing PT P tattoos all right

cool so uh we have these vagrants we're

going to be putting this guy out of his

misery four rounds 3030 Mike are you

ready I am three two

one

[Music]

look at the flowering off those rounds

entering like that is beautiful

ballistics when they came in he just

doesn't have a chest anymore he do look

at so it so we have a couple different

impacts so to be clear there's a little

bit of lag and stagger between all the

shots in slow-mo it's pretty

simultaneous but like you have to

imagine like even police officers all

shooting together or you know whatever

jail officers who are shooting like

they're not going to be perfectly timed

you're kind of going to get forish

rounds in around a second it's kind of

brutal he's going to feel at least one

of them for a little bit uh I mean you

would with lethal injection too how long

does lethal injection take like 30

minutes I'll take this any day first

round when it came through you can see

completely shattered the rib and went

straight through the heart that's death

right there right here we have these two

came through the lung tissue blew out

the ascending aorta upper round right

here traveled through shattered the

collar bone if we come out the back this

is where it gets crazy cuz we had two

rounds exit out through the lungs you

can see all this tissue coming out we

had one round go through the spinal cord

that's your dunzo dude and it kind of

got stuck right there and the other

round also crushed through the spinal

cord as well as through the heart

you're death man this is quick I I would

take okay would you take lethal

injection yeah for sure cuz they put you

to sleep first it doesn't always work

doesn't always work what about would you

take the electric chair over this no no

hanging no you'd rather get shot first

absolutely I would get shot 100% now

we've tried an American execution method

but what about some other countries

throughout the world let's do some of

those so Micah we're going to be doing

the Soviet SL The Russian Execution

method you know what that is um I don't

know it's usually something like you

exercised free speech so they shoot you

in the back or something give you some

spicy tea that's pretty good so you're

going to be taking one round of 9 by8 to

the back of the head they're very

economical they don't have a lot of

money so that's the best way to save the

money cuz they have a bunch of it so

whether it's a macro or if you're polish

or what what have you 9 by 18 which if

you don't know is a little less than 9

mil and a little bit more than 380 not a

lot of power you're about to get Abraham

Lincoln we're not losing in

Ukraine wow that was antil climatic yeah

that was super antil

climatic

it it's just not that much it's like

they want him to suffer a little bit

Yeah okay but come take a look at this

right here so it did straight up you

know star pattern in the back of the

head you have all that gunpowder that's

burnt into there and we did have a piece

of the looks like of the jacket that

exited out through the nose and

penetrated through the skull so

certainly you're you're going to die

you're going to you're going to die

taken around to the head like that it

seems so unnecessarily brutal even

compared to like the 3030 just don't get

executed Rush dude Jesus next up we have

Thailand now the question is how would

Thailand execute somebody it's actually

quite interesting so what we have here

is we have the person we executed is

tied up against a post and their back is

facing towards the shooter which is a

machine gun that is clamped into a vice

we then have a sheet that is between the

accused and the shooter so that they

don't have to watch the person getting

shot now originally used an older

Submachine gun that was quite loud and

they would fire a burst of 15 rounds of

FMJ into their back until they hopefully

died uh they wouldn't always die but

apparently that really scared the

prisoners cuz they could hear the

automatic gunfire so they switched over

to an MP5 SD which is very very quiet as

you know the SD stands for super duper

quiet so the uh the execution method for

Thailand is 15 rounds from a submachine

gun into the back through a

sheet now they paint a Target on the

sheet to ensure that they're hitting um

the person correctly now we don't have

an MP5 SD so what we are using is an MP5

with a suppressor firing subsonics we're

going to get the exact same ballistic

effects so let's get

shooting

[Music]

that's so bad I don't like that at all

makes me feel very uncomfortable there's

slugs going through the heart partially

exiting cracking the sternum you're dead

come here look at look at the back right

here Micah like look at all look at all

15 rounds right

there that is death it's it's just

brutal I feel like there's a cleaner way

to do it with a gun and it's not 15

rounds from a submachine gun into the

back I mean they don't do this anymore

but it just felt wrong okay conclusion

for taii execution method uh 10 out of

10 do not want it to happen uh so far

I'm taking the uh four rounds of 3030

what about you Micah I'll take the four

rounds 3030 then this then the maok back

very last it just it seems so

unnecessary now our taii guy right here

is pretty injured but he's not dead yet

so we're going to do another American

special this is a specialty of the Navy

Seals we're going to do what's called a

canoe is it a authorized uh killing

under the laws of armed conflict or War

crime that's not for me to decide I'm

just going to show it to you so what it

is is when a combat's on the ground and

is still alive a safety round is put

under the chin through the head uh and

then apparently will create that to new

like effect why is it called a safety

round uh just to make sure they're dead

because you don't want them like popping

up with a gun or pulling a grenade you

know something like that you just want

to make sure they're they're not alive

safety round lives are expensive ammo is

cheap give them another round and of

course we'll be using the HK416 which is

the uh was one of the weapons of choice

of the Navy Seals uh as authentic as

possible with the actual military ammo I

can't wait interested to see what it

looks

like

[Music]

oh

[Music]

it caned him it just opened him up dude

it's a literal canoe there's like a

perfect like you going in his face let's

give him another one let's give him

another one you ready you not satisfied

with the result I just I I you know I'm

just dang yeah that's uh extremely

uh that's it

man I see why they call it a canoe well

there you have it now we're probably

going to do the most famous execution to

have ever occurred Bonnie and Clyde

specifically that [ __ ] Bonnie if you're

not familiar with Bonnie and Clyde they

were Outlaws and a posy was sent out

after them led by Frank Hammer what a

badass name now we do know from variant

accounts or we believe that when the

posi ambushed Bonnie and Clyde that

Bonnie one of the posi members stepped

out and put a around through his brain

immediately there's good evidence to

suggest that Ted Hinton then with his

Colt monitor unloaded about 20 rounds

from his magazine into horal Bonnie

right here now this is a representation

of Bonnie she's a little bit smaller so

what we have right here is we do have

the Ford V8 glass this is a really

quality reproduction we do have the

dummy behind it and of course more

importantly we have the col monitor so

if you're not familiar with the Colt

monitor it is basically a bar that has

been tricked out it was called the FBI's

fighting rifle you have a large break to

stabilize it it is horrifically loud and

it is

firing 30 six very interested to see the

damage in the post-mortems on Bonnie it

very much so shredded her body and uh

shot off her hand and stuff so it was

pretty brutal of course she was shot

with other rounds but let's see what it

looked like from the CT

monitor

[Music]

oh oh

no Bonnie no

Mike

Bonnie bunny I'm so I'm sorry so we're

going to pop up a couple photos right

here here's what's really interesting to

me and that's that I'm really happy

about this the glass behaved just like

it did in the photos and the actual car

is still on display so I think it's

really interesting that we see kind of

the same pattern and the same bullet

size from the 30 cal from the uh P

monitor I think that's really cool

there's like a nerd in me but also what

was really interesting was that glass

shot back into the dummy you see all

that glass and shrapnel coming in this

was probably horrifically violent when

it happened they probably died quite

quickly well especially Clyde rest in

peace um another thing to consider too

is that they were a slight upward angle

so that probably counts for the fact

that Bonnie's head was not saw off like

it was in the case of our video but the

the 30 6 clearly had the power to do it

you have to understand it was a moving

car they were firing probably a ton of

adrenaline so they probably didn't get

as precise hits they're a little bit

further away but it certainly

demonstrates the power that was coming

from Just One of the weapons that was

fired at them during this time pretty

incredible this is the way I'd want to

go just taking 20 rounds from a cold

monitor just gone dude it saw saw my

head off dude just do it well that

brings us to the end of the execution

video we've tried out a lot of different

methods right now and I think I'm going

to rank them by how how I would like to

be executed I will say Colt monitor

would be my number one my number two is

the 3030 and after that don't let me do

any of the other ones because they seem

horrible Michael what what what are your

top two I think just mostly style points

the CT monitor wins yeah style points

the CT monitor is pretty freaking cool

and then 3030 yeah I mean if it's the

last thing that's going to happen you it

better be tight you know overall I will

say you know compared to like hanging

lethal injection and some of those other

things I'll take getting sh getting shot

dude that sounds way better to me I

think they're just lazy man they don't

want to clean up yeah they don't want to

clean up everything in any case guys

hopefully you enjoyed it I think it was

really interesting seeing what the

potential effects were in these

different execution scenarios maybe

which ones worked better which ones

didn't and the effects that we saw stay

tuned we have way more cool things going

as always guys train get training we

love you guys we got nothing else for

you soft arguing on the

internet doesn't gain you anything
