  • Resumen

  • In our inaugural History's Most Badass Death Tournament, we pit three of the most legendary die hards: Rasputin, the Mad Monk, Captain Ed "Blackbeard" Teach, and 81 year old Puritan farmer and accused Salem witch Giles Corey against each other in a head - to head competition to determine who really pulled off the manliest death in history. Warning: You'll learn a little about the Russian Revolution, the Golden Age of Piracy, and the Salem Witch Trials along the way.


    Cantankerous, violent, and hard to get along with 81 year old Puritan farmer Giles Corey suffered the most brutal execution ever conducted in a (future) Blue State - or any state. When he refused to confess to witchcraft, the powers that be in Salem spent three days of their famous witch trials crushing Corey under a massive pile of stones. His famous last words? "More weight." Legend has it that he cursed Sheriff Corwin and every Salem sheriff, and ever since, every Sheriff of Salem has either died or retired early from a blood or heart disorder, starting with Corwin himself. Find out the truth behind the legend and more importantly, find out who wins Real History with Dr. Hans' Inaugural History's Most Badass Death Tournament!
