Still Waters Posted January 15, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2017 As a method of execution, throwing someone through a window is a bizarre concept. It’s amazing there’s even a word for it, and yet there is: defenestration. 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. But there is a very real, and very weird history behind the practice… http://all-that-is-interesting.com/defenestration 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted January 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 15, 2017 There should be more of this defenestration. Would save millions in court costs and prison time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
