Amon Goeth Execution Video with Botched Hanging

Amon Goeth

Amon Goeth (full name Amon Leopold Göth) was a Nazi SS officer who was in charge of concentration camp in Plaszow, Poland. After the war, he was apprehended and sentenced to death by hanging. The Supreme National Tribunal of Poland found Amon Goeth guilty of murdering tens of thousands of people. The execution took place in Poland’s Krakow, not far from the Plaszow concentration camp. The video of Amon Goeth’s execution is below and it is one of the biggest FAILs in history of executions ever. The executioners not only looked like fucking Batman and Robin, they also totally sucked at guessing the proper length of rope necessary to successfully hang the man, so when the trap door opened for the first time, Amon Goeth landed on his feet.

As if that weren’t enough, second attempt at hanging him failed in exactly the same way due to complete incompetence of the executioner. I can imagine that by this time even Amon Goeth felt like he had enough of this bullshit and wanted to be hanged and done with it. He was probably thinking to himself: “Look at the dumbasses. This is why I was trying to kill you all.”

After killing tens of thousands of people, he must have felt like he was surrounded by complete amateurs unable to kill one man. Third time was a charm, however. After two botched hanging, Amon Goeth was eventually successfully executed after third hanging attempt went… well right. Even though Amon Goeth didn’t have his feet tied up – he could have stepped on the side of the trap door and just stand there. That would make the executioners look like complete idiots already.

Check out the execution video below. If I were the Batman and Robin executioner, I’d probably also hang the cameraman and destroy the tape just to make sure no one will see how much I sucked as an executioner. I guess it’s only good we don’t actually see them tying up the noose :D

Oddly enough, Amon Goeth seems entirely content with himself as he’s being executed. You’d think he’d look scared and regretful knowing his life is about to end, but that definitely doesn’t seem to be the case.

Amon Goeth in Schindler’s List

If you have seen Steven Spielberg’s academy awards winning movie Schindler’s List, then you may remember the ruthless commander portrayed by British actor Ralph Fiennes. That ruthless commander was Amon Goeth. Schindler’s List is based on actual events that took place in Poland and Germany during WWII. Many people appearing in Schindler’s List were real, including Oskar Schindler and hereby mentioned Amon Goeth.

PS – I’m leaving for Iceland tomorrow, embarking on a well deserved vacation. Will not be back until June 11th, so there will be no updates to the site. If any of you sick bastards reading Best Gore live in Iceland, send me an email so we can hang out somewhere over Viking beer ;)

    Ha ha

  3. Sylvia says:

    I’ve seen this. All I can say is that Ralph Fiennes was convincing and definitely did not have a belly as huge as the real thing in Schindler’s List LOL

  4. Brian says:

    Couldnt have happened to a nicer guy!

  5. hang em high says:

    ROFLMAO !!! this is a true polich hanging

  6. Elvar says:

    They should have hanged the executioners instead,haha what a bunch of morons.

    Btw have fun in Iceland i live there and you can e mail me if you Want.

  7. Chris says:

    I wonder how he felt when he thought he was about to die…then it turns out they made a mistake on the execution! I wonder if he was close to getting a heart attack…

  8. Mike says:

    there is no way this could have been real. When he is hanged he is limp suggesting he broke his neck but the problem is he did not fall far enough to break the neck so he should have been flopping around from getting choked to death.

  9. eX says:

    Actually, you’ll probably find that the equiptment used in the hanging was made in America. Those Poles are bloody good at constructing stuff – they built my kitchen and bathroom =P

  10. KillJoy says:

    Stupid mother fuckers !!!

  11. Jay Son says:

    Imagine you’re the one standing on the platform. You know what’s coming, and then the floor drops out underneath you and you fall, but it doesn’t happen, so they do it again, and it doesn’t happen, and then at this point maybe you’re thinking it might turn out to be a good day. Third time is the charm. I wonder what He was thinking on that last attempt?

  12. Jaime says:

    he was one stone cold son of a bitch.

  13. tjswan says:

    He died like a man

  14. CGUSA says:

    First death vid I laughed at, especially reading the comentery beforehand….

    Too funny

  15. checken says:

    hahaha. you got to laugh about the botched hanging of a war criminal like this. ive seen worse laurel and hardy spoofs, and i like the way batman throws the rope twice in FAIL rage. its quite comical.

    however, a few points.
    1. seems on the first attempt the rope actually breaks.
    2. the 2nd he manages to fall on the inner sides of box.
    3. about time and he gets a short drop.

    karma police.

  16. checken says:

    just reviewed it again.

    attempt 2. he seems to not have the rope tied as you can see it slip out of his hand. he falls to the ground and onto his knees inside the box.

    i think it was done on purpose. and probably, rightly so.

  17. Jasmine says:

    ROTFLMAO!!! They DO look like Batman and Robin!!! LOL!

  18. phil says:

    I can’t seem to play the video, any ideas?

  19. Grimvisage says:

    omg, its too funny, I was hell laughing at the description and watching the vid, I would love more of vids and descriptions like these, LOL!

  20. joseph says:

    benny hill shit going on here

  21. Jim says:

    After seeing Schindler’s List many times, I have no sympathy to Amon Goeth. He didn’t ‘die like a man’, there was no honour it what he did or the way he died. He was the perfect symbol of Fascism, something the rest of the world must be grateful that was confined mostly in Europe.
    Not one person on this site would have liked to have crossed paths with this man, who was a murderous cunt.

  22. JDWG says:

    Deserved it. SS scum

  23. JDWG says:

    SS scum

  24. Chris says:

    Would love to see more racist assholes hung like him.

  25. BlacKBlazE says:

    Lol

  26. ozbocfan says:

    Just love the reaction of the executioner on the right! He kinda gives a huge “aw shucks” on the first and then cracks a huge hissy fit on the second. I almost expected him to do a lap of honor on the third. Magnificent video

  27. poepslayer1 says:

    lol he think:
    FUUCK, the rope is break again!:P:P

  28. nikoda says:

    Death isn’t funny… but it was for him… and Batman and Robin made me laugh!!!

    Fuck him!!!

  29. ThePhilosopher says:

    hahahahahahah I hate that I’m laughing, but that’s fucking funny shit. They failed 2 times. He probably was anxious to get it over with in the end.

  30. Garcia says:

    haha at the end the executioner just wipes his hands on his arse like aaah glad i got that over

  31. Lord_Mullethead666 says:

    That looked incredibly fake…what a dissapointment…

  32. FreakShow says:

    Ahahahahaaa. That was great. I love the narrators voice. “…Dos…” You almost expect to hear him sigh, or something.


  33. Take that, Goeth, you Nazi fuckhead!
