wrong ! its not just handling fish suspiciously :- 32Handling [F1fish] in suspicious circumstances. (1)Subject to subsections (3) and (4) below, a person shall be guilty of an offence if, at a time when he believes or it would be reasonable for him to suspect that a relevant offence has at any time been committed in relation to [F2any fish to which this section applies] , he receives [F3that fish] , or undertakes or assists in its retention, removal or disposal F4..., or if he arranges to do so. [F5(1A)This section applies to- (a)salmon, trout, eels, lampreys, smelt and freshwater fish; and (b)fish of such other description as may be specified for the purposes of this section by order under section 40A of the Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries Act 1975.] (2)For the purposes of this section an offence is a relevant offence in relation to [F6a fish to which this section applies] if- (a)it is committed by taking, killing or landing [F7, or selling,] [F8that fish] , either in England and Wales or in Scotland; or (b)[F9that fish] is taken, killed or landed, [F10or sold,] either in England and Wales or in Scotland, in the course of the commission of the offence. (3)It shall be immaterial for the purposes of subsection (1) above that a person’s belief or the grounds for suspicion relate neither specifically to a particular offence that has been committed nor exclusively to a relevant offence or to relevant offences; but it shall be a defence in proceedings for an offence under this section to show that no relevant offence had in fact been committed in relation to the [F11fish] in question. (4)A person shall not be guilty of an offence under this section in respect of conduct which constitutes a relevant offence in relation to any [F12fish to which this section applies] or in respect of anything done in good faith for purposes connected with the prevention or detection of crime or the investigation or treatment of disease. (5)A person guilty of an offence under this section shall be liable- (a)on summary conviction, [F13to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum] ; (b)on conviction on indictment, [F14to a fine] . (6)The M1Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries Act 1975 shall have effect as if- F15(a). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (b)in sections 33(2) (warrants to enter suspected premises), 36(1) (water bailiffs to be constables for the purpose of enforcing Act) and 39(1) (border rivers) and in paragraph 39(1)(a) of Schedule 3 (prosecution by water authorities) and Part II of Schedule 4 (procedure on prosecutions), the references to that Act included references to this section. (7)In this section “offence”, in relation to the taking, killing or landing [F16 , or selling,] of [F17 a fish to which this section applies] either in England and Wales or in Scotland, means an offence under the law applicable to the place where [F18the fish] is taken, killed or landed [F19or sold] . [F20(8)In this section “salmon”, “trout”, “eels”, “smelt”, “fish” and “freshwater fish” have the same meanings as in the Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries Act 1975.] . does not sound stupid now does it ! but lets not fact get in a way of stupid bullshit vides on the internet

Horror, torture, and death used to be a part of our daily lives. I wonder how many of us don't truly realize just how good we've got it in today's civilization?
The law was also really bad because of religion they hold onto it and took it serious
@@Lewtable youre delusional....imagine comparing modern problems like "cyber bullying" or college debt to medieval problems like religious persecution, the caste system, plagues, famine, torture, etc.... lemme guess....youre a millenial?
Sadly, these things are still there. Just in a different form.
@@Lewtable im 38, so I can see both perspectives. But I can ask you a simple question...would you rather live in a time with plagues, famine, terrible medical care, 18 hour work days (or slavery/indentured servitude) no OSHA regulation etc...or would you rather be responding to me on your iPhone trying to justify how "hard" you still have it? The answer is beyond obvious. Relatively speaking, you are in a better place in life by a magnitude of 1000× compared to previous generations. What you're describing are literally "first world problems", which are relative to how you are raised. Youre unhappy because you've never truly experienced adversity like people did in the past. There are kids in impoverish countries who can't even afford a soccer ball to kick around, so they use coconuts or other makeshift stuff so they can play. Im sure if you got just a soccer ball for your birthday as a kid you would pout and cry about not getting more. You're perspective is skewed, and that's the entire issue, nothing more. The human mind is complex, so sure, you may be unhappy, but that's only because you've been spoiled your whole life and have a skewed view on what is needed to be happy.
@@Lewtable youre making the wrong argument. We do have it better, but perspective matters. Just like people are happier in poor societies.where most people are poor as opposed to the poor people in a rich society, the people in the middle ages didn't see their lives as quite as bad as we think they are. It doesn't mean it's as bad now. We have less war than any time in history, & war is where women & children are killed. We have it pretty good.

Same here. I pictured the whole scenario in my head 😆🐌🐀🦗
I just saw it through the narration and the dramatic music... The bug stops and looks back mournfully. "I had at last lost my home. I was on my own now." Sun going down, those walking their horses into town looking in disgust.
In the 19th century in Hartlepool England at the time of the Nepolionic wars, a monkey from a French ship was put on trail as a spy. Unable to defend itself(they thought it was speaking French!!) It was duly hung. To this day residents of the town are referred to as 'monkey hangers'.
there are known cases in our times where "God" was put on trial, at least the animals put on trial in medieval times were real, nevertheless still ridiculous of course.

It is actually still illegal to die in the houses of parliament, and it does still get enforced, this is because it is officially a royal palace, and anyone who died there would be entitled to a state funeral, including the street procession with royal guards etc. To this day if you look over ill or grey in the face, you could be escorted out of the houses, and if you are caught trying to kill yourself or die there, you can be charged with treason and sentenced to prison. Basically, the government can't afford it, and never could so they made it illegal.

I used to have a teacher back in high school that would dress up in medieval gear and talk about different torture techniques used back than during Halloween. Best and funniest teacher I’ve ever had. Usually students who had homeroom that weren’t taking his class that semester would come to his class just to watch. I’m honestly surprised he hasn’t gone viral yet. If social media was the same as today back when I was in high school, he would probably be on Allen.
Probably into S&M in his spare time....
Ali Yare I had a history teacher who dressed up in medieval gear but would do shows on medieval medicine and ways to treat different things. Was an amazing teacher. My favourite one and was one of the first to come visit me in hospital after having a serious paralysing injury and helped me write my Personal statement.
That’s so fuckin sick, wish I had a teacher to do something like that 😂 the closest I had was an 8th grade teacher that let us bring any music to play in class on her stereo as long as it was an instrumental. And ehhh, a HS teacher let me and a few others leave campus for lunch (we weren’t allowed, punishable by detention/ISS). But that’s about it lol
My dad was a science and health teacher for 33 years. Won the National teaching award twice. He was fun educational and funny. Very well liked. He used to tell a story about How to get rid of a tapeworm. You eat 2 Oreos and a glass of milk every night before bed. Then one Oreo. And then no Oreos. And when the tapeworm sticks his head out to see where the Oreo is you grab him and pull him out. He had kids go home and tell their parents and they believed him.
Has he a account ?
So if a murder happens near me and I happen to be handling a salmon at the time I can get arrested ? I can see how that would look fishy!

CavemanBearPig Always remember time is short. We must repent of our sins (sin is transgression of The Turah) and believe on The Master Yahusha. We must believe on Yahusha. In Hebrew, the word "believe" means to "trust and obey" so we must trust and obey Yahusha Faith saves you. TRUE faith will produce obedience. If we have genuine faith, we will obey YAHUAH’S Law (Turah). We will repent when we stumble into sin (sin is transgression of The Turah) and trust in The Master Yahusha. Grace is what allows us to be the men and women that YAHUAH The Father in Heaven called us to be. It allows us to obey through His SET-APART (HOLY) RUACH (SPIRIT). 🙂

If anyone's ever been through a plea bargain in a US court, these medieval systems seem rather familiar. We can't admit that you're _not_ guilty, even though you obviously are, but we'll drop the sentence from $5000 and 9 months in prison if you plead guilty to a minor misdemeanour and pay a $70 fine. I look forward to the day when this seems just as ridiculous.
A day when it does? I'm sure that day came, and it has been ridiculous for a very long time now.
Already does look ridiculous, we just hadn’t dropped off yet.
Why plead guilty to anything if you're innocent? It makes no sense!
@@DrDolan2000 Because the alternative is so much worse, you can't afford to defend yourself and the prosecutor probably has more experience than your defender. Even the judge slipped up and referred to them as a public _pretender._ Those guys are pretty useless and unimaginative. At least ours got the gist of what I was saying and put it to the prosecutor and the lowered charges were probably the best we could hope for. It's what a lawyer acquaintance of ours said he could have got it reduced to so I guess we did good enough.
I was under the impression drawing and quartering was when you tied each arm and each leg to 4 horses and then forced the horses to take off in different directions..... No one else heard of this?
About a week ago I hear someone say hey
That's a different punishment
@@emperorhirohito29 called what?
@@HorrorHermitofHell I think being pulled apart by horses predates medieval England, possibly Roman or Byzantine in origin. The point of quartering was each quarter could be distributed throughout the realm for public display, reinforcing the power of the king, and a very real horror to those who would suffer in their afterlife without a whole body. In later times highwaymen may be beheaded, the headless body buried under a busy crossroad, the head tarred and set on a spike. Happy days!

Interesting, really. Why would you want people to "join" in a riot, and not put down the riot? Perhaps back then riots were different then today's.

It was still pretty common until the 20th C in the US to accept goods as payment for services. X number of eggs to draft a will, a couple of chickens maybe for a divorce, etc. And I guess I should leave my salmon at home the next time I'm in the UK. Or bring it along, just for the halibut.

Actually this is what prompted the American War for Independence. No cruel and unusual punishments. And the ridiculous taxes. They taxed closets. That’s why they weren’t built in and you had standing armoires. And taxed windows if they were a certain size. That’s why they had all those tiny panes. Not that they couldn’t make a larger window. But that you wanted more light which was crucial or enjoy the view but didn’t want to pay the tax. Amongst other equally onerous taxes which included tea.
Makes me wonder why people dream of traveling back in time. Why would anyone want to go anywhere near the violent idiots from humanity's past? People in the future will probably think that about us but that just proves how solid my point is.
No matter what going back in time would be awesome.
There weren't just horrible people. Some of the best architecture and art was from those times all the way up to the Renaissance, they had unique cultures, inventions and stories that set them apart from each other.
I'd be happy with just being able to go back in time and tell myself what to do or NOT to do.

Mistake at 10:10. In trial by cold water, people were found guilty when they float and found Innocent when they sank (causing them to drown) not vice versa.
I believe that's the witch's version of the trial, used in the 18th and 17th century. Perhaps the medieval version was different
Only if you were accused of witchcraft. Not with every other crime.
@@jorenvanderark3567 I'm pretty sure that's just a misconception, trial by cold water was popular for suspected witches but did also get practised for other crimes as well, and it's the same version for both crimes.
@@numberk7526 Why do you believe that? It makes more sense the other way around: The trial the video is refering to is based on God proving innocence through helping the suspect. In the witchtrial version the premise is different. It assumes the suspect to be a witch if the person floats, using their witchcraft. Naturally, a tightly tied person will sink. So when a person is not suspected of witchcraft, they have no alternative way of floating besides help from God. Therefore it makes sense for the medieval mindset to assume innocence if the person floats in all other crimes. It also makes it possible for the other theory of the video to exist, because tethering with the outcome when the judge believes the suspect to be innocent, wouldn't work if only dying would prove this innocence. And since we now know that witches aren't real and if God even exists, he does not concern himself with whether people float or not, there would also not be examples of people that didnt sink and die.
For a long time I thought he was saying “42” 😂

I'd have to wear the badge of being a cookie 🍪 jar robber 😂
The Welsh would have to wear a badge denoting a sheep shagger.
wont be surprised if this era came back in few years
It won't. The reason we learn history is not to repeat it.
@@user-we9pt4xg4j yet people are trying to completely outlaw guns without thinking of the concequences.for example they banned alcohol and guess what people did?made their own.so if you takw away guns guess what people will do?make their own
@@mrsizzy7329 Guns won't be out lawed. At least not anytime soon and my guess is this is America,there are already guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them. If we outlaw guns,people will either have no way to defend themselves from idiots with guns or people will just get them illegally really easy because 'Murica.
John Marston well alcol and drugs should not be compared to guns. alcol abd dezgs release dopamin in youevbrain, something many people lack in everyday life. that's why keeping drugs illegal iscdumb, it's in human nature to desire to be high, roll or trip every now n than. guns really don't do anything to most people (maybe some freaks that get eraused by guns). I was never lose to a gun all my life and I would want other people to get furthee aqay from guns to, in my eyes guns create more problems than they solve. at least in the hands of civil people.
I agree, all the people who are denying science are on the way to go back. hell they already adaptef the knowledge of that era. (flat earth)

Everyone talking about how you git arrested for handling salmon suspiciously but nobody talking about how they brought beetles to court

Interesting. Happy New Year Thoughty2! :)
A few months ago in london I bought all black clothes, sunglasses, a black flat cap and toothpicks. I carried a packet of sliced salmon around w/ the outfit on and the toothpick in my mouth for an hour or so then I was hanged 😂😂😂
With the rise of social media, shaming is actually a workable form of deterrence once again . Think of "Karens" who lose their jobs after a viral video.

Best channel on KZhead!
Suspicious salmon handling? Nevermind, just a red herring >
The book, The Scarlet Letter, is a good example of those badges in use.
Perfect timing I was craving a video of yours
I am simple. I see a new video. I click. Your videos are amazing!
As always interesting stuff. Love your content as I always learn something new!
It confounds me how you get so much information on such diverse subjects....this episode for instance and the trying of animals in court...never heard that one and I have an interest in history and expected to have at least have heard of this...your explanation of the reason for this makes sense with the thoughts of God at that time. Your delivery is somewhat mesmerising....I feel I'm at school listening to a teacher..... This is one of the best info channels I have found on YT Keep up the good work... By the way was Thoughty 2 a reference to the all knowing computer in Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy that gave the answer to life and everyhing as 42 ?
KZhead should grant you 10 Shillings for that smooth segue into Skillshare!
That hair on your shoulder is driving me nuts!!!!!!!!!
Love your presentation style and range of topics. Thanks very much.
You straight up need that mustache to survive brother.
The thing with the Middle Ages was that there really wasn’t too much of a “private life”, as people depended on cooperation to farm the land, as it was divided into smaller patches. You simply couldn’t afford to “fuck around”, as if you did something stupid, you could risk the life of the entire village/manour. Interestingly, crimes performed in public where not dealt as harsh of a punishment as one done in public, as it would have been seen by more people, and the trial wouldn’t have had to have been a big affair. The reasoning behind the humiliation was to, primarily discourage other people, and secondly, to sort of emotionally scar the criminal into not doing it again. After the humiliation, the criminal was to be integrated back into the village community, and then that was that. One kind of humiliation was to be restrained in front of the church during mass (where basically everyone in your life could see you and laugh at you). This seems weird today, but again, everyone’s life depended on everything working. This here is basically for northern and Central Europe, but I think it was similar to this in England and France as well.
Interesting
@@mrs.potatohead8471 The medieval period is super interesting, and not as much of a downer as people make it out to be!

I kind of like the idea of having to participate in a riot if it breaks near you.
😂😂😂😂you make me laugh when you switch to Skillshare that was so funny😂😂😂😂 Thanks for another awesome video Mr. 42 and Happy New Year's ✌🏼️
Great video, watched it twice already, just so I can get the wisdom.
I would be suspicious of the leather armour part but the rest seems fine for what we've got to go off.
Watching that banana get cut was one of the most painful flashes I’ve ever watched given the context 😬
the punishments might sound effective on the surface but imagine the amount of false confessions because they thought getting beheaded would be an easier and quicker way to die than going through the effort of holding burning hot metal or drowning to death while ur hands and legs are bound
God shave the queen
Oof... this music was used in Legacy of the Dragonborn V4. This makes me happy.

With so many laws, many being mundane it sounds more like an extortion system you were bound to break a law that you paid whatever fines, bounties and legal costs you can.
