So apparently the Spanish were really sick people, which I was not aware of, because there are a TON of torture devices that begin with "Spanish." The next one that I'm going to talk about is the Spanish donkey. It was a device made up of a board and two cross boards at the bottom. A victim would be forced to "ride" the board as if it were a donkey. As they were "riding" the donkey, weights would be put on their feet to weigh them down. Apparently it's really painful, but luckily I'll never know (hopefully...).
P.S. I couldn't find a good picture of the real thing...

That does sound very painful! I wonder how people thought of these kind of things, I had no idea that there were so many things invented to torture people!
