Crocodile Shears 

noun:

One of the most appaling torture devices to ever be implimented. This is an iron pincer with hemicylindrical blades that formed a long narrow tube when closed together.

The inside was lined with sharp spikes (which are often heated red-hot before use). This device was clamped to the victim's penis and once the penis has been "cooked" enough, the penis was ripped off.
When I found out what crocodile shears were I barfed.

Brazen Bull

A particularly nasty torture/execution device.

A hollow bull is cast entirely out of brass with a door on the side. After the condemed was placed inside, the door was closed and a fire was set underneath the bull. This caused the bottom of the bull to become "red-hot" and thus burning/roasting the victim.

The head of the ox was designed with a complex system of tubes and stops so that the prisoner's screams were converted into sounds like the bellowing of an infuriated bull.
Combine the horrors of claustraphobia, suffocation, and burning at the stake, and you have the brazen bull. This is some fucked up shit.
