There's extreme and then there's this
If it wouldn't be tragic, it would be hilarious in a "I can't believe they actually did that"-way. The fact that the guy was executed is ridiculous already, but if they really HAD to do it a standard firing squad should've done the trick. But no, they have to actually execute the guy in a way which reenacts some kind of scene you would see in those cheap, ridiculous, dumb, shitty splatter-gore movies. I actually feel sorry for the people that had to clean up that mess.
