"So this is hell. I'd never have believed it. You remember all we were told about the torture-chambers, the fire and brimstone, the "burning marl." Old wives' tales! There's no need for red-hot pokers. Hell is-other people! " ~ Jean-Paul Sartre

Its crazy how many traumatic experiences people had to witness back in the day
Interestingly enough I have never seen this form of execution portrayed in movies or television. Hard to believe that Hollywood has overlooked this incredibly brutal form of torture execution.
I think I seen it in the minions movie
there is nothing about this form of execution that is fun to portray or remember. Everybody involved in anything to do with this wheel were, quite frankly, sick (pope, courts, audience, executioner, and accused).
It's actually an embarrassing thing to highlight about any culture if you think about it.
I've seen a lot of torture scenes in movies and tv shows, The Tudors comes to mind. The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones are more recent examples. People are still entertained.@@reznog12

I love how they called us "savages" when they came up with these gruesome, Inhumane, punishments.
Imagine being the last person to undergo this punishment just before it was brought to an end, must be so annoying to realise had you delayed your crime for about a year or even a month you would have been able to escape this punishmentđđ

This is what the Founding Fathers must have meant when they referred to "cruel and unusual punishments," although they were all too usual in those days. It makes me very grateful that there eventually was a 'New' World for people to escape this stuff from and have civil liberties. I feel like that freedom paved the way for the rest of the world to eventually do away with this stuff.
Probably the most famous victim of the wheel was Victor Oge. He was broken on the wheel in Cap-Francais, Saint-Domingue (now Cap-Haitien, Haiti), in 1791 for the crime of advocating equality between the white and mixed-race populations. That happened in the New World.

I once worked with a woman who went to the College of St. Catherine in St. Paul, MN. I never worked up the courage to ask her if the schools athletic teams were called "The Wheelers."

the anime is a bit all over the place and far from the quality of the manga, but still a great watch.
I'd suggest starting with the original anime or the 3 most recent movie . they are the same arc , but the former have more story/character development while the latter have a bigger production quality but compress the whole og anime into like 5 hours ( cant remember exactly ).
I didn't watch the following ( most recent anime ) as the quality of it just seemed disappointing and they skip some arcs for some reason
