    My favorite part of this story real or not is how after the king died the people grabbed the bull and chucked it in the ocean.. No one was like " now its my turn to use it" they just wanted the thing gone

    As bad as this sounds, it still sounds better than having your tendons slowly stretched until they finally snap or by being slowly crushed under enormous weight. The most successful torture devices all the way from antiquity and all the way up to modern times are the ones that work the slowest, or the ones that bring you to your brink over and over again. I would assume that torture is most effective when there are psychological elements added to it.
