The BRUTAL Execution And BOILING ALIVE Of Richard Roose

- During the reign of the notorious Tudor King Henry VIII, 70,000 people were executed whilst he was on the throne. But one of the most brutal executions to take place in Henry VIII's time was when Richard Roose was boiled alive at Smithfield. Richard Roose had been a cook inside the Bishop John Fisher's household, and whilst Fisher's household were eating a meal a number of people got very sick. 2 people died and 17 people also got very sick and ill, but Richard Roose the cook had already attempted to run away. He was quickly arrested, and was taken to the Tower of London.
Inside of the Tower of London, Roose was tortured using the horrific device of the Rack, and whilst on this he then gave over some information. He claimed that he thought he had put a laxative in the meal, but did not intend to kill anyone. But the main target of the plot was probably Bishop John Fisher, and many people even began to accuse King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn of being involved in the plot to kill Bishop Fisher. This was because Fisher would not support the King in his wishes to divorce his wife. But Henry VIII sentenced Richard Roose to death, and he sentenced him to be executed by being boiled alive. The crowds at Smithfield were horrified by what they saw with Roose dipped in and out of a boiling pot three times before he succumbed to his horrific ordeal.

Man, the more you learn about Henry, the more it makes me sick to watch shows and movies that romanticize this psychotic sadist.
Englands latter day Stalin. An absolute psycho.
And then there were alternatives such as boiling in oil… the executioner chose boiling water because the steam rising above the execution caldron was torture too… with boiling oil, sometimes they’d just dunk the lower half, then winch them up again: you can imagine the agony of that clinging, burning oil!
@@seanbrown9048 Apparently they were still boiling in oil in Uzbekistan a few years ago.
And yet, things like this still happen. How much have we changed? And can we change enough to survive another century?
@@fredgillespie5855 It was a terrible time, maybe still is… ISIS and ISL proudly published high quality vids of men being beheaded, shot point blank, burned alive, drowned in cages, heads crushed with stones; it was barbaric and evil, medieval radical Islam on full display.
With so many people watching it I'm surprised the water ever came to a boil.

If you think how many things could poison food and their basic knowledge of food hygiene, being a cook would have been a very dangerous job.
my wife fed me 3 lamb shanks, 2 of them made me dry reech when i smelt them, she insisted they were fine, i ate the good one to show her i wasn't ''imagining things'' ,they came from local butcher. no longer buy there. also bought rotten ''on special'' chicken from local supermarket, also from kfc, didn't buy kfc for several years. i think their basic knowledge of food poisining would be same as now, i think most people don't care what they feed you long as they are making money. i am 70 yrs old , suffered low grade food poisining dozens of times, it pays to use your nose, it wasn't put there for sticking in to other peoples business...........

It's difficult to imagine the fear and terror that Richard Roose must have experienced in the moments leading up to his execution by boiling alive. Being sentenced to such a gruesome and painful punishment would be traumatic for anyone, especially if they were innocent of the crime for which they were accused. Poor Richard Roose 😰
I don't think Roose was innocent, but he still didn't deserve such a gruesome death.

@@Elly3981: How can we know? Anyone tied up to that rack would say anything to make it stop! His confession seemed to be an attempt to find a balance between giving them something that would appear as a confession that was real enough to get them to stop the torturing here and now while simultaneously trying to minimize the confession so as to prevent more suffering in the future. It didn't work. There was nothing he could have said that would have made it stop and there is no way of knowing whether he was innocent or guilty.
70,000 that puts him pretty much into the realm of "mass murderer".
Close to Hillary Clinton numbers!
Not in the realms of others? Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot etc?
@@homewithemma42 70,000 would be an insult to Hilter and Staling. They only worked in the millions area

But Hitler and Stalin at least dont chop heads and didnt send their victims of executions to boiling waters.Youd rather be shot in the head than endured this horrific end.
Henry was an evil monster to his rotten core.
Agree he was a nasty greedy evil monster who had people executed if he didn't like them.
As have millions been 😱
This is a gross oversimplification of historical events. Until a certain point in his life, Henry VIII was actually a well liked, athletic and good looking man who charmed people who met him and who had many talents including playing the recorder, dancing and jousting. However there was an accident during a jousting tournament where Henry VIII was forced from his horse and fell, likely sustaining a serious head blow as well as some other injuries. This was believed to be the main turning point for his overall behaviour and personality, as brain injury can change these significantly. He continued to eat in large amounts but was no longer as active as he’d been, with reduced mobility due to the injuries, so he became obese as well as suffering from mood swings.
@@eliz_scubavn and these sound like excuses that still don't justify his barbarism. Every serial killer has a sob story and a rough childhood. Boo Hoo. I'm guessing the people they slaughtered didn't care.
@@eliz_scubavn I’m glad someone here will give an additional perspective, this whole comment thread is just a circlejerk of people pointing out his flaws. They overlook the fact that his rule was considered one a golden age in English history, and that these sort of executions weren’t uncommon at the time (albeit much less gruesome). I’m certainly not defending his actions, but there’s two sides to every story and history is written by the victors (who didn’t care too much for him). I’ve actually read that he really went overboard when his favorite wife Jane Seymour’s sudden passing. That’s when his eating really became out of control and that is said to have been when he truly became a monster.
It's hard to fathom the brutality these people inflicted on one another. We are the cruelest of all living species.

Henry VIII an early recorded incidence of major head trauma causing a complete character change. He went from being a good King to a tyrant after falling from the horse. Amazing how such a simple incident can change the course of world history.
Thankfully the power of the royals has diminished over time.
But the inquest into the death of Diana Spencer was rigged.
The inquest took place in a royal establishment, presided over by a judge appointed by the queen.
Diana Spencer was divorced and not a royal.
The boiling of Richard Rose occurred prior to the jousting incident.
@@esterbond4048 Cheers. Didn’t check my dates!
The good leader turned bad by accident or illness seems to a common trope from history to explain brutal behaviour, same type of stories about Caligula and Ivan the Terrible. I think Henry was always horrible but just got worse as he got older with completely unchecked power.
@@melvert33 quite possible. We’ll never really know for sure. There is no doubt of correlation between head trauma and personality change however. And it’s not like they knew enough about that back then to use as an excuse so personally I think there is actual meat on that bone.
Henry the 8th really is one of histories most evil figures. It's a shame he lived long enough to commit so many atrocities.

Even if guilty this punishment is beyond evil.
I agree but I wouldn't mind if they would do something like this to people who rape and kill children I think about those poor babies how scared and how much pain they were in they being brutally murdered and tossed away like they were trash those poor mother's and father's boiling them kind of people alive or burning them at the steak would be the kind of punishment they deserve I can't understand how any one who can hurt a innocent child it's so heart breaking , I don't understand why they baby those pedaphiles and let them out so they can do it again to more children it makes no sense
@@chuckycheeserI am sorry if you don't agree with me but I have no empathy for anyone who rapes and kills children, they should have to feel the worst kind of punishment, if I made the rules one thing is for sure we wouldn't have pedaphiles walking around going after innocent children I don't think everyone deserves that stuff but a baby raper does and I don't understand why are government protects them , where was our government when those poor innocent children needed protection from evil monsters like that

Nowadays people visit the Tower as a tourist curiosity; but in the past it was one of the most sinister and horrible places in the world. greetings from Brazil.
I went to the tower a few years ago, and if you remember/have been yourself, there is a plaque on the ground where executions took place. I forget who, but one was a young woman aged 16 who happened to be the wife of a Spaniard or something like that. I then went to the national gallery and saw a massive painting of the same woman’s execution and i was all of a sudden filled with such emotion. I had stood where this woman, well, girl, was killed. It suddenly became more real than just a name on a plaque.
The place is haunted. People who work there regularly have supernatural experiences. Often similar in nature and in the same parts of the building.

I found out about this execution while watching the television series "The Tudors" on Showtime. In the series, Richard Roose was boiled alive in a private execution chamber with a few witnesses. When I found out that the series was totally incorrect and that this man was executed publicly, it made me wonder how much of the series was actually inaccurate. Terrible way to die.
The series like all similar series is historical fiction, meaning it is loosely based on historical events but primarily is complete fiction for the purposes of entertainment.
Jonathan Rhys Meyers played Henry VIII. Can't get much more inaccurate than that.
They probably moved the execution to a private room to avoid the costs of filming in a suitable outdoor location with the crowds of extras which would be needed.
Well the BBC version had Anne Boleyn as black, that tells you all you need to know about the BBC and television agendas
I don’t waste time with those shows for that exact reason. I don’t care for historical fiction. Most people get their History from them, and then what you get is misconception and people having a wrong idea of the events, seeing them as some producer imagined them. Waste of my time. There are better things to be entertained by.
The fact that "what shall we do tomorrow afternoon? Ive got the day off. Perhaps we'll go to the public boiling of a human being" was a conversation being had numerous times over in 1300's England is still mind boggling to me
This is what makes me being afraid of my fellow humans. some times it feels to me that all those torture Devices and beyond evil executions are just lurking around the corner, waiting to be rediscovered for some maniac leader. and again, the crowd will cheer and laugh.

Regarding the brutality of the time, keep in mind that around the 16th century pewter became a fairly common material to be used for plates, tankards and eating utensils. Early pewter had a lot of lead in it, and this would have leached out into food. As a result lead poisoning would have been prevalent, especially among the well to do who could afford these items, and could account for some of the behaviour of Henry.
Yes, but lead poisoning takes some time to work. It doesn’t happen quickly.

A one man rule has always been a wrong thing, too much power of one person made them a psychopath.
Nonsense. A good king happens to.
The reason they go sadistic is you have to rule with fear to every citizen.
Stalin a good example he selected and killed someone all the time in power.
It can happen again. All it would take is teaching young minds to accept whatever they're told as the truth. That's what the left wing indoctrination in schools is all about
Same on Russia today
Since when? So all the worlds kings and queens were psychopath?
I suppose your a registered psychiatrist too?
I once wrote an essay titled, Describe why Henry VIII was a ruthless king. I received a good grade for the essay, but I never knew about the cook being boiled in a pot. That could have gained me a grade A instead of a B lol.
Henry VIII was in a par with Saddam Hussein for the number of political executions. Similar psychopathology.
You not heard about it coz it might be a mandela effect
@@randomgenerator7746 Mandela effect is when you remember something different about something you know, like the cornucopia in Fruit of the Loom.
If I were sentenced to die like this I would devote every waking moment to finding a way to slice one of my major blood vessels. Crush me or dump me in the ocean, boiling is horrific. Listening to someone scream in agony for a few minutes is torture in itself.
In those days basically everybody was a believer in the catholic or protestant church. You could be forgiven for your sins if executed, but not for taking your own life. So they generally didn't want to risk their immortal soul being damned for eternity.
The pain he endured is excruciatingly unimaginable!
To lower the condemned person slowly into boiling water was to have prolonged his suffering, likewise to do so three times!
His shrieking must have stayed with those that heard them, they would never forget the sounds he made!
That people flocked to watch such savagery was unthinkable by the standards of today, but in those times life was cheap.
The sight and sounds of his punishment would probably have caused nightmares.
How very fortunate to be born in these times rather than back then...
Truly sadistic !! Horrible.
Thing is, many people are still doing this sort of thing to each other in some parts of the world. Maybe not boiling alive, but slow beheading, hanging, various forms of torture, etc. Much of the world has recognized how wrong these actions were/are, but not everyone. Not by a long shot. Humans are still capable of such brutality, and some are still exercising said brutality.
Depends on how you look at it. Back then, life was harder but the earth was greener and less polluted. Now it’s the opposite…
@@murch7299There are videos of isis burning alive prisoners in cages, very inhumane

The sickos treated executions as day of enjoyment. Pies and ale were sold to the spectators at Tyburn.

Many would do the same now. They would be taking selfies and making videos. People don't change. Only laws do.
Some countries still have public executions (Saudi and Iran to name but two) though nothing compared to Boiling Alive. You´d have to look at ISIS for those sort of executions.
I actually dont know how I would react...people (not me) watch horrific things on the News everyday and seem desensitised..couple that with public ignorance and the HUGE hate/propaganda campaigns that preceded these executions and it isnt a HUGE stretch of the imagination to consider watching along with the rest of them if you truly feel they have lost all humanity through their crimes and deserved the punishment...not even a century ago lynchings, beatings and burnings were all the rage in Dixieland without a shred of empathy....

What a horrific way to die. I think it’s worse than being burned at the stake.
R.I.P. Richard Rouse 💐
It is worse than being burned at the stake, that is why the Catholic Church reserved boiling alive (rather than burning at the stake) for people of some intellect who might become serious challengers to doctrine. Unlike Rouse, who was boiled alive in water, the Catholic Church used a mixture of water and turpentine oil to make it even more painful.
Yep. Families of the condemned were known to pay executioners to make the executions as painless as possible. Skilled executioners knew what to do to make it easy for the victim. In the case of burning at the stake, the executioner knew how to set up the pyre so that the condemned would die of smoke inhalation long before the flames touched his/her toes. Same with the hangman. In the opposite cases for particularly hated people, the reverse was true. Boiling someone alive is pretty much unavoidable in the amount of misery you would feel.
Thats what makes "scaphism" the worst form of execution , it takes days , maybe even weeks to die despite the fact that the victim will be begging for death the entire time , because of the bugs they will feel crawling around inside their bodys as they rot alive.
Even as their body starts to rot , there is nothing about scaphism that in itself will kill a person , so they have to wait for starvation to release them from misery.

I recall reading of a similar incident where a Japanese war-lord executed one of his samurai by having him placed in a vat of boiling oil. The difference in this case being the samurai having to hold his infant son during the execution. Apparently the samurai was forced to quickly kill his son, to avoid his needless suffering, before he too succumbed. IMHO this execution is more horrific than Roose's.

It’s really kind of strange we honor these old rulers with imposing graves in the finest cathedrals considering their actions.
When you consider the Catholic Church/Vatican's support of Nazi Germany, it's really not that strange.
We don't honor them. The people who built the tombs and cathedrals honoured them, we simply preserve these things. There is no link between 'we' and the boiling alive of Roose.
It is natural human nature to appreciate the complexities of world history.
He was one of the most famous people of his time. But also quite controversial.
Usually they were the ones who built the cathedrals.
I would think it says more abt the churches.
Imagine where this beast Henry is now. Eternity will not be enough for him to pay. Richard Roose, Anne Boleyn and the rest, rest in peace and joy.

Very interesting and informative, I never knew this happened, what a bold plot!
It kinda saddens me that people went on about their business and Henry's execrable whims were left unchecked until he died of 'natural causes' at a fairly respectable age for the times he lived in (and given his health situation). The saying 'the only thing necessary for evil to triumph in the world is that good men do nothing' still applies to this day. And very much so too
That is why I don't eat Lobsters
Take a knife cut down straight down centre of the lobsters head. Kills them instantly, then throw them in the pot. Not necessary to boil them alive.
Or kings............. Or king lobsters
Considering the fact that Doctors bashed germ protocol all the way up the the late 1800s, and the Sears catalog had two purposes if you know what I mean, I would guess food poisoning was an every day occurrence for a lot of people. One hospital in Austria saw Doctors go straight from the morgue to the maternity ward.
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
The very thought of getting boiled alive is just too horrible,...the pain would have been so intense...it seems they enjoyed inflicting as much pain as possible before they would die ................
Of course they did, that’s the whole point of a deterrent
Henry was probably eating the soup for days afterwards.
Humans are sadistic beings. We still enjoy making people suffer and wanting to watch public executions. Just the western world now censors most of that likely to avoid triggering our ape brains.
Not as bad as the Brazen Bull. This was a large, hollow bull made of bronze and they would put you inside and slowly heat the bull with a fire underneath. The nose of the bull was designed with a hollow tube. As the person inside cooked and screamed, it sounded like the bull was screaming.

How Alexei Sayle has never played Henry VIII on TV is beyond me.
This period in history is absolutely brutal what one human can do to another

Fascinating! Thanks!
This one was very sick. I have never heard of it until watching The Tudors. I'm not even sure if I watched it all the way through at that time. Henry was truly a sick individual, and I don't know if he was covering for himself, if he was that far off his rocker to want to poison a member of the clergy. In the show Richard Roose did it because he wanted to make a good match for his daughters. Honestly, considering he was tortured he might have straight up been lying about poisoning anybody.
It's a pity that The Tudors had so much unnecessary sexual content, as it was otherwise enjoyable. In particular, the torture and executions were exceptionally well presented as all of its horror was not explicitly shown but alluded to.
I've seen the Tudors. Unfortunately, there are things that can't be unseen. The torture of poor Anne Askew, John Constable's torture😬, all those men being hung in the battlefield while their wives are wailing😭, it's horrible! But it's a pretty interesting series.
Human beings are the most brutal of all living things on this planet.
What a brutal time to live in.
Has it really changed much in 500 years?
@@mattrogers1946 well they don't boil people alive any longer and they don't hang draw and quarter for breaking the law so yes it's changed.
@@ladyshakari They still behead people and stone people to death in the Middle East .
@@ladyshakari People still do all those things. The fact that they are no longer law doesn’t mean that people have stopped doing it. In which world do you live in?! Secret services all over the world torture people, and so do mobsters and drug lords, all over the planet. Heck in some places torture is even still law, and an official practice. North Korea, Russia, China, the US in Guantanamo.. And all the African dictatorships.. Again, in which planet do you live in?!
@@selmahare i live in the USA and things are not as brutal as it was in England under royal rule.
70,000 executions! Holly shit
Ironically Bishop John Fisher was later executed by Henry
Fear Allah
I have noticed a curious detail in all of Henry VIII's portrait paintings. He is pictured with a very small mouth, no wider than his nostrils. Could we then say that he was a mean mouthed man, yes?
Trump has the same small mouth.
What’s remarkable to me is, if Roose was innocent, then so too was Henry of any plot. If Henry was guilty and used agents to get Roose to do his bidding, then Roose was not only guilty but likely knew, who was behind it, in which case, why didn’t he bargain for his life or at least a swift death?
Even if Roose didn’t know, Henry was behind it, he never identified those he was involved with, saying he did it for a joke, not realising death was possible. What did Roose gain from protecting those behind the plot? There is so much we don’t know. Did he really get racked? Few survive the rack, let alone are in any condition for execution soon afterwards.
Did he have family? Were they under threat so he remained silent to protect them? Horrid times but also recent events have shown us that our history is heavily manipulated and it’s crystal clear that we live in a lie world, so who knows the truth!

That is some sick stuff.
Henry VIII was just a gangster thug in King's clothing. He tortured and killed anyone who looked sideways at him, and anyone who got in the way of his wishes. A classic example of absolute power corrupting absolutely.
Possibly he was a sadist.
But he did influence a song or two...

He was actually a respectable, nice man by some accounts when he was younger. I believe he had a bad horse riding accident or something that he got injured from and is the reason for his excessive weight gain. He possibly had a brain injury.
You're assuming that power corrupted him and that he wasn't simply that way by nature.
He was actually a kind, charming and respectable person before his accident. Its frightening how a brain injury can change ones personality.

You're very easily impressed, he's just reading out the Wikipedia entry ffs.
Damn near everyone executed was innocent. I don't think Henry's having a great time right now in hell.
This is not a very Christian attitude, its not for us to determine God's judgement.
I personally hope we can all be saved
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33 Ha ha ha you’re a funny man. It was Christians what boiled him alive. That’s not very Christian now is it!
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33 who said I was Christian? I don't recall that. He'll is not a solely Christian religious entity. It's a scientific anomaly of a place that our energy source aka soul that lives forever in the form of light energy enters another dimension of space that we can only prove exists mathematically as we do not have the technology to access that frontal plane. He'll is a dimension where anarchy and chaos exist in it's purest unfettered form. Time dies not exist as there is no day or night nor seasons. Chaos due to there being no presence of the creators love.
AND if God did not want man to judge other men. Then why do we have laws and courts that do that very thing?
Evil needs to be called out for what it is no matter the person. Stalin murdered 80 million not 30. Mao murdered 190 million not 60. China's government murdered 400 million babies through abortion not only because of the single child policy. But even then the 1 child was by law to be male only for 20 years.
America 64 million abortions and counting UK 12 million abortions and counting.
YES I shall judge evil persons for their actions by not standing up for the innocent as the thousands Henry murdered as a cruel adulterous greedy selfish useless monarch. Bastards like him would still be in power murdering at will.
ALL of Stalin Mao Ze Doing a and Hitler's innocent victims were all murdered legally by laws they passed to murder them. And the people in the STATE mostly went along with it.
96% of Germans liked the Nuremberg laws of Jewish separation of society. Same came legal enslavement of people the expansion into the western USA and murdering millions of Indians in the Trail of Tears a law called the Indian removal act.
No thank you I will keep my judging of vile reprobates.
PEACE
John Fisher was canonised. One local Catholic Parish near me on the Central Coast in New South Wales in Australia is St John Fisher School & Parish Church at Tumbi Umbi. So he is remembered for his bravery even in Australia.
Rot in hell Henry VIII!
I hope there is a hell
Henry’s last words were........”All is lost” “Monks! Monks! Monks!
In the series wolf hall we get to see his horrendous temper , yet it still doesn’t go far enough to show how many were assassinated for the most futile reasons that will manipulated often it shows his woman is being the manipulators when actually they were simply playing a game of chess with him to stay alive they should really show more about how clever Catherine Parr was and how she incredibly outwitted him and was almost arrested and lots of her close friends were burnt all of the film seem to show Henry the eighth being jolly laughing and only occasionally losing his temper he was incredibly insecure & after his close death & horrendous wound in his leg only made Henry v111 even more shocking in his temper .

Dude. Have you been to a U.S prison?
@@mox9076 No I have not.
Some of my Scottish ancestors were executed by first being hanged until not quite dead, then taken down, castrated, disembowled, organs burned while the crowd cheered.
I understand the levity in your reference to the US prison system, but unnecessary cruelty is a problem that happens all over the world, even today.
Well that was actually from the Glorious revolution from the English Bill of rights, which was cut and pasted into the US hundred years later. So don't try to take credit.
Rome had its Emperor Nero, while Great Britain had its King Henry VIII.
Nero was nowhere near as bad as Henry.

Lovely video. 🔥
I gotta wonder if Henry attended any of these executions. He really seemed to get off on them. Swine!😱 I hope he is having fun in hell!

As a subscriber, I wanted to come share that I just saw this video mentioned in an LAD Bible article in my news app. Nice!!
Even 500 years feels relatively recent for this level of barbarism. It sounds like something from the Roman age, not the dawn of modern England.
Stories of the Middle Ages (most times throughout history) makes me think being a craftsman of some sort would lead to best and/or safest life for myself and my family.
Have a small carpenter shop building and repairing carts, wagons, and even items for the local church, or as a blacksmith, a cobbler, hatter, etc. Anything useful to society so as to keep you in demand to support your family, but not too well known to have jealous enemies who want the adoration you enjoy.
This is horrific😢
So, King Henry executes a man in a brutal fashion for "attempting" to poison a Bishop...then later, he executes the Bishop.
Sounds legit.

Englands history is just terrifying.
I asked a veterinarian how lobsters die when boiled; he described how the red blood cells rupture at about 130’f causing stroke and as this happens the pulse rate begins to race to make up for the lack of oxygen and after 20-30 seconds death finally occurs, and the animal suffers greatly.
