1.
The victim is bound, with their legs angeld toward the floor.
Once in this state, a large amount of water is forced upon them.
If
they do not want to drink, they will be forced to do so. A funnel
will be placed into their mouth, and the nose covered, so they
will
have no choice but to drink all the liquid before being able
to breathe again. After this is repeated enough times to fill
the
stomach to a state of maximum distension, the angle at which
the victim is placed will be changed. As the body is tilted
and the
head points towards the floor, the full weight of the stomach
and its contents will begin to press on their lungs and heart.
Not
only the incredible pain, but the feeling of suffocation that
comes with it will surely make the victim confess. If this still
does not
work, the people will beat on the victims bloated stomach
with a mallet almost to the point of rupture. This way, no permanent
marks will ever show, and the body will be in good condition
when they are executed.

A memorandum dated in 1697:
"The accused will be bound at the wrists with ropes and
attached to two iron rings encased in the wall . These should
have a
distance of 6 inches from each other and should be 3 feet above
the level of the ground . Two other iron rings fixed on the
floor at
a minimum distance of 12 feet from the wall should be available.
Through these rings the ropes which retain the prisoner's feet
will be drawn . The ropes should be fastened by humane strength
one after the other so that the prisoner is bound in the most
severe manner possible . He is then admonished again to tell
the truth . To sustain the prisoner a bench 2 feet high may
be
placed underneath the middle of his body . A large recipient
should be placed underneath the delinquent to receive the liquids
he
eliminates ..."
The victim was forced to swallow 4 liters of water if it was
an "ordinary questioning" or 8 to 9 liters if he weas
feeling really
sadistic.

CHINESE WATER TORTURE (VERSION 1)
The victim was tied to a table or the floor, and their head
was strapped in place so that they couldnt move anything. water
was
then dripped onto his forehead, one drop at a time. It drove
the person insane, and after a period of time the victim would
confess. This was favored in circumstances where torture was
necessary because no evidence of physical damage could show.
CHINESE
WATER TORTURE (VERSION 2)
A rag is stuffed into the mouth of the victim and water is dripped
on it until it swells up and suffocates him.
MODERN
WATER TORTURE
Used in U.S. prisons in the nineteenth century. Water was poured
on top of the prisoner's head and a large bucket of water was
also placed under their chin to simulate the feeling of drowning.
