Transcript

00:00In the heart of 18th century Paris, a time when the guillotine was the star of the execution show,

00:05one thief became infamous not just for his crime, but for the ludicrous way he met his end.

00:11This man, known as Jean Baptiste, was caught red-handed swiping a loaf of bread from a baker's

00:16stall, a crime that would lead to an execution more absurd than tragic. Instead of a simple

00:22punishment, the court, filled with bloodthirsty spectators eager for entertainment, decided to

00:28make an example of him, concocting a plan that would make even the most absurd playwright cringe.

00:35On the day of his execution, a bizarre spectacle was set in motion. Jean Baptiste was to be

00:41executed while wearing a giant bread costume stuffed with real loaves of bread, transforming

00:46him into a walking bakery. As the executioner, with a grin as wide as a baguette, swung the

00:52guillotine, the crowd erupted in laughter rather than horror. The irony was too rich as the thief,

00:58now a living loaf, met his fate in an explosion of carbs, bread flying in every direction.

01:05The date? September 14th, 1792. The location? The bustling streets of Paris, where the scent of

01:13fresh bread mingled with the thrill of impending doom. It was a day when justice was served,

01:18but so was a hearty chuckle, proving that laughter truly can be the last laugh, even in death.
