The REAL Man Trap
How well do you know your animal traps? Our pal Rob H. of What is it? Blog has a neat featurette: a quiz of 28 of the strangest and most gruesome-looking animal traps.
This one above is the man trap:
A man trap, it was used by a wealthy land owner in England to catch poachers. It takes a key to open the jaws and they can’t be pried apart. It was designed so as not to break the leg, a small consolation since the victim probably paid with his life.
The stick was used as a trigger, it kept the jaws open and when stepped on, the trap was sprung.
