The average weight of a guillotine blade is 88lbs and is a height of ~14feet, Just saying, -for future reference and it's a proven concept and effectively utilized before. Viva la France, right?

The horror. And to think that the contraption was originally built by a doctor who wished to devise a compassionate means to end life. I can’t recall the source of that info.
Amazingly enough, the late 19th Century author Charles Dickens brings the horror to life in a most readable and compelling manner, in a Tale of Two Cities. As a student in public education in the 60s-70s in a tiny rural town, I was not educated in the classics, to which there are many references in the novel. I found an online resource dedicated to explaining the references in the book, I think via Stanford, prior to 2020 (the year I consider to be the turning point in the cultural-political cold civil war).
No thanks, not up for the horror. I still think exile and the forfeiture of all material possessions and citizenship is the best punishment for this type of crime. Force the perpetrators to start over in a less friendly environment. The country to which exile is forced should be up to the court, if they still exist when he tide turns.
