TIGER BENCH: The practitioner is tied to a narrow wooden or iron bench. They suffer great pain as bricks are positioned under the feet causing the legs to be hyperextended.
ELECTRIC BATON: The practitioner is abused—sometimes over a few hours—by up to a dozen electric shocks to the face, including the eyes, on the genitals, nipples, and other sensitive body parts.
STRETCH: The practitioner's legs and arms are forced to be parallel to the ground for long periods of time.
PIERCING FINGERTIPS: Objects such as bamboo sticks, needles, or nails are inserted, or hammered in, under the fingernails, or pierced through the fingertips.
Animal Attacks: The police threaten the practitioner with attack dogs. Other animals used include insects and snakes.
