یکی از وحشتناک ترین روش های شکنجه مرسوم از قرن 16 ، قراردادن سر قربانی بین دستگاهی که تو عکس می بینید( http://b2n.ir/77498)و تحت فشار گذاشتن تا زمانی که اعتراف کنه یا بمیره ، در بسیاری از موارد حتی اگه قبل از مرگ طعمه دستگاه رو باز کنید بخاطر خرد شدن آرواره ، ترک برداشتن جمجه و شکستن دندان ، گاها خارج شدن چشم از حدقه مرگ به آرامی و با درد زیاد از پا درش میاره ، این وسیله به دلیل جذابیتی که داره طرفدار داره و هنوز منسوخ نشده

This device was used solely in Germany, first recorded in 1530; and called Kranz or Schneiden. This metal device featured a plate that sat below the victim's jaw, which was connected by a frame to the head cap. As the torturer slowly twisted the handle, the gap between the head cap and plate decreased, crushing the skull, including the teeth, mandible and facial bones, and ultimately inducing death. Even if the torturer stopped before death, permanent damage to the facial muscles and structure would have occurred. The victim's head would slowly be crushed, killing the victim, but not before the victim's jaw had been crushed, and their eyes may have possibly extruded from their sockets.[1] To aggravate the pain, the torture master would sometimes amuse himself by tapping on the metal cap with a small hammer.[2] The head crusher was used to extract information from criminals. It would scare them to the point of giving up knowledge that was crucial to solving serious criminal cases. [3]
There were many variations of the head crusher during the early modern period, some of which even had a receptacle in the front to catch the eyes of the victim.[4]
