Inside The Bloody Story Of Defenestration, One Of History’s Wildest Execution Methods
The definition of defenestration comes from the Latin word de, meaning “out of” or “from,” and fenestra, meaning “window.” But its origin comes from an incident in Prague in the Kingdom of Bohemia (part of today’s Czech Republic) in 1419. Humans have invented countless ways to execute criminals, political rivals, and enemy combatants throughout history.
But one of the most bizarre execution methods is also one of the most simple: throwing people out a window. Also known as "defenestration," this practice dates at least as far back as the 9th century B.C.E. — when the Israelite Queen Jezebel was thrown out of her palace window as punishment for banishing all the prophets of Yahweh from the kingdom. But it wasn't until the Middle Ages in Europe that the practice really took off, particularly in Bohemia, where some 20 leaders were defenestrated over 200 years.
Go inside the strange history of defenestration
A group of anti-Catholic rebels called the Hussites marched upon the New Town Hall in Charles Square, demanding the release of some fellow Hussites who were prisoners. When the city’s Catholic officials refused the request and someone hurled a stone at the Hussite leader, Jan Želivský, the Hussites angrily stormed the hall, dead set on throwing someone out a window. They settled for seven city council members, a judge, and the chief magistrate. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the furious mob gathered below the windows held up spears for the defenestrated men to fall upon. Those who weren’t killed by the fall were hastily dispatched with the spears. Almost exactly 200 years later, it happened all over again.
Known to history simply as the Defenestration of Prague — although it was, of course, the second defenestration to plague the city — the 1618 act was fuelled by the religious altercation between the protestant Bohemian aristocracy and the ruling Catholic Hapsburgs. On May 23, Protestants stormed Prague Castle and decided to defenestrate three Hapsburg regents out of the windows of Wenceslaus Hall, eventually triggering the Thirty Years War. Amazingly, the regents survived the 70-foot drop.
Their Catholic supporters instantly claimed divine intervention, insisting the men had been miraculously caught by the invisible hands of the Virgin Mary. The generally accepted explanation is far less holy — namely that the men survived because they landed on a large pile of dung, serendipitously situated beneath the window. So, where did the inspiration to start throwing people out of windows come from? According to Ota Konrad, a Czech historian at Charles University in Prague, “The inspiration for defenestration comes from the Bible, in the story about Jezebel, who was thrown from the window by her people.
Defenestration was a very symbolic execution: It is about falling from high to low, symbolising a fall from grace.” Although executing someone by throwing them out a window may seem like a bizarre concept, it was once popular enough to acquire its own word: defenestration. When people use the word “defenestration” today, they usually mean it metaphorically, referring to removing someone from a position of power, especially public leaders.
In 2017, for example, when The Atlantic published an article titled “The Strange, Slow-Motion Defenestration of Jeff Sessions” about the fall from grace of the then-U.S. attorney general, they didn’t mean it literally. The most famous instance of throwing people out of windows is the Defenestration of Prague in 1618 that sparked the famous Thirty Years War, shown here in a 19th-century painting painting by Václav Brožík. Because while the word may be a useful — if grandiloquent — way to describe a swift dismissal from power, to defenestrate someone also means to literally throw them out of a window. In fact, defenestration has a long and bloody history as a way to get rid of unwanted rulers or political enemies, execute criminals, and add some cinematic drama. We’ve witnessed it in countless movies — the thrilling opening fight scene in Watchmen, Edward Longshanks hurling his son’s lover through an open window in Braveheart, even the triumphant moment in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves when Friar Tuck pushes the money-laden bishop through the stained glass window of his chapel.

Defenestration was a very symbolic execution: It is about falling from high to low, symbolising a fall from grace.” In Scotland in 1452, the Eighth Earl of Douglas was ruthlessly defenestrated by King James Il
Incensed at the earl’s refusal to pull out of a pact that he’d made with other noblemen, the king reacted by stabbing him 26 times before throwing him out of the window of Stirling Castle, according to Scotland’s Daily Record. Just over a century later, there was an incident in the Mughal Empire. In May 1562, seven months after Mughal Emporer Akbar appointed a favored courtier named Ataga Khan to be his first minister, a disgruntled general named Adham Khan murdered him at the royal palace. Enraged, the emperor ordered an executioner to defenestrate Adham Khan. According to History of Yesterday, on May 16th, 1562, Adham Khan was defenestrated from the ramparts of Agra Fort. When the 40-foot fall only shattered his legs without killing him, the emperor ordered his men to march him back up to the top and defenestrate him a second time.
On being told, Adham Khan’s mother, Maham Anga, nurse to Emperor Akbar, graciously uttered, “You have done well.” Very loyal words indeed from the mother, but not entirely heartfelt. Anga is said to have died of acute depression 40 days later. Perhaps the most alarming aspect of the tradition is that it didn’t die out in the Middle Ages. In fact, it has continued to surface into the 20th century. Throwing People Out Of Windows In The 20th Century Nigeria saw a horrific display of defenestration in 1977 when soldiers threw the mother of musician and human rights activist Fela Kuti out of the window after taking umbrage with her son’s new Afrobeat album, Zombie, which criticized the military.
And as if her death wasn’t brutal enough, the commanding officer also defecated on Kuti’s mother’s head and then burned his entire compound to the ground. There is also ample historical evidence to suggest that global Communist parties have been prone to use the occasional window shove to deal with opposition.

There is also ample historical evidence to suggest that global Communist parties have been prone to use the occasional window shove to deal with opposition. During the Chinese Cultural Revolution of 1968, Deng Pufang, the son of former communist leader Deng Xiaoping, was tortured and forced to admit to capitalist sympathies.
As a result, Chairman Mao Zedong’s guards imprisoned him and threw him out of a fourth-story window at Peking University, according to The Los Angeles Times. The fall didn’t kill him, but he was refused admittance when he was taken to the hospital. The fall broke Pufang’s back, and he remains paralyzed in a wheelchair to this day. Earlier, in 1948, there was a controversial episode in what was then Czechoslovakia that introduced a novel form of the ancient execution method. After the communists seized power in the post-war elections, the foreign minister, Jan Masaryk, was found dead in his pajamas beneath his bathroom window at the Černín Palace. The official verdict was suicide, or, since he fell through a window, “self-defenestration.” But 56 years later, an investigation by Czech police concluded that it was, in fact, a murder carried out by the Communist government in what has since become known as the Third Defenestration of Prague, according to Radio Prague International.
This argument is based on three distinct pieces of evidence, according to the historian Ota Konrad. First, it would have been quite difficult for Masaryk to navigate the window ledge and throw himself out of that particular window. One Czech investigator reportedly quipped that “Jan Masaryk was a very tidy man — so tidy that, when he jumped, he shut the window after himself.” Second, there was evidence of scratched nail marks on the window frame. And third, the pajamas taken from the crime scene showed that Masaryk had “soiled himself.”
And as yet another example of windows being used to bring about horrific death in Prague, Masaryk’s murder acts as a startling warning to us all: If you ever find yourself on a visit to the Czech capital, consider declining an offer to tour the top floors of any tall buildings.

A magnificent Soviet soldier, dressed in skirts on the battlefield, died after being captured and subjected to humiliation
A magnificent Soviet soldier, dressed in skirts on the battlefield, died after being captured and subjected to humiliation In the early days of World War II , Germany's policy towards the Soviet Union was to attack the Soviet Union at a distance, and because the Soviet authorities believed that due to the strength of the Soviet armament, Germany would never take the initiative to attack the Soviet Union. Therefore, at the beginning of the war, the Soviet Union did not actively help other countries resist German aggression. The actual result was that the German Lightning Forces quickly moved into the Soviet Union. Of course, the old men were caught off guard, and the battle was retreating steadily, and the army suffered heavy casualties. The most indispensable thing for a fighting nation is people who can fight. When a man is dead, a woman can also go to the battlefield. Those women who were only waiting for the return of their husbands and sons took up their weapons unwillingly. S...

Most Disturbing Sexual Practices in History
Most Disturbing Sexual Practices in History From Egypt to the Middle Ages, the cultural tradition surprises with customs that today are strange and difficult to understand Society classifies sexual practices and tendencies as “normal” or “deviant”, based on cultural criteria that change over time. Good proof of this is reviewing the bedroom customs of Rome or Ancient Egypt, and observing how disturbing and unacceptable many of them are. Disturbing ancient Egypt The pharaohs allowed marriage between brothers and, in some cases, also between father and daughter, in order to preserve the purity of the lineage. Incest was allowed between monarchs and circumcision, a practice later adopted by the Jews, had a ritual character in the initiation ceremony of adolescence. The Egyptians had a more pragmatic than unrestrained view of sex. Perhaps for this reason rapists, that is, those who acted like animals without being able to contain their base passions, were reserved for a penalty as dra...

𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐌𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐄𝐗𝐄𝐂𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐈𝐍 𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘. Scaphism, also known as "the boats," was an ancient method of torture and execution that was used by the Persians and later by the Greeks. The method involved trapping a person between two boats or hollowed-out tree trunks, smearing them with honey and milk, and then leaving them to be devoured by insects. OmG! The victim would be stripped naked and placed in one of the boats. The other boat would be placed on top of them, trapping them inside. Holes would be cut in the top boat to allow the person's head, arms, and legs to protrude. The person would then be fed a mixture of milk and honey, which would attract insects such as flies, wasps, and ants. Over time, the insects would swarm around and inside the person's body, eating the honey and milk, and eventually, the person's flesh. The victim would be left to suffer in the boats, often for several days, until they died from a...
