Soulfikar

Souflikar was the personal executioner of Mahomet IV during the Ottoman Empire and killed up to three people every day for five years - he killed in total of 5,000 people and the most horrific aspect of his "career" is he never used any instruments of torture and death to do so: he personally strangled each and every victim to death with his bare hands.

As if this was not terrifying enough Souflikar liked to toy with his victims by offering them escape, racing them across the royal gardens to the place of execution - if the victim won they would be set free: yet Soufliker never lost a race and still had the strength to strangle every victim he beat at the race.
