I got a better answer.I'm Singaporean and learning History in school and currently learning about this.There are a lot of torture ways,I'll list them out for you,I don't know everything but I'll list what I know =)

1) Stuffed a hose into a person's mouth then filled the person's stomach with water till it's bloated then jump on the stomach and the stomach bursts then the intestines and internal organs rupture.

2) They placed some mice under a metal cover on the stomach then heat it and then when it's hot then the mice will start to scratch the person's stomach until it's full of wholes and won't stop till they find a way out or when the Japanese stops.

3) They hang the victim onto something then place a growing bamboo under you and wait for it to grow until it pierces through the whole body

4 ) They used a certain kind of nail clipper to pluck off the victim's nails. Then when it's pluck off it bleeds right? After that they sprinkled salt and vinegar on the wound then it will start to get infected and rot but the worst is that after every 3 or 4 days they came back and sprinkled some more till the fingers rot away

There's still a lot,like raping and if someone passed a Japanese soldier and didn't greet them then off they went to heaven. If you're not Singaporean I suggest you come to Singapore and learn about our history,its interesting and the place here is very nice =)

Starvation and beating mostly. I know of one: the Chinese water torture. They would tie a person's hands behind their back, and have them kneel before the torturer. The torturer would then proceed to place a single droplet of water upon the person's forehead. This would go on for several hours, maybe, and unsensed the tortured in a way of insanity.

----------

I'm not certain, but I believe they also at one point used tools such as fingernail extractors(let's not get into detail) and something else called water-boarding. I am not certain though.

----------

Water Treatment or "Cure" as used by the Japanese military during World War II was a form of water torture in which the victim is forced to drink large quantities of water in a short time, resulting in gastric distension, water intoxication, and sometime death. In this form of water torture, water is forced down the throat and into the stomach. This happens repeatedly until osmosis causes the cells to explode.

Water boarding as used today refers to a technique involving water poured over the face or head of the subject, in order to evoke the instinctive fear of drowning. Often, a wet cloth is placed in the subject's mouth, giving them the sensation that they are drowning.

==========

It is probably worthwhile to distinguish between torture - where the purpose is to inflict pain and distress as a punishment or as a method of coercion - from atrocities that were committed where the suffering was a byproduct of the purpose of the actions.

Although rape is sometimes a form of torture, nearly all of millions of the rapes committed by the Japanese during WW II were part of a plan by their leadership trying to improve the morale of the soldiers.* In those cases the rapes were technically atrocities rather than torture. The infamous Unit 731 would be another example of atrocities where great suffering was inflicted but for the purpose of (in)human experimentation rather that for the sheer sadistic pleasure of torture.

----------

* Personally I think it had to have the reverse effect on morale by degrading the soldiers participating and destroying their self-worth and honor.

I was told that Hitler would attach fire hydrant hoses around peoples mouthes to see how much water they could hold and I also heard that he would tie them down and allow water to drip on their foreheads to see if the water would soak into their brains to get water on the brain...This is kind of an answer and a question. I'm not sure how true it is but I think the fire hydrant hose thing is really interesting.

Torture would presumably mean using pain to extract information. No doubt Japanese troops used whatever means at hand to extract "intelligence" when their Malayan campaign was under way. After the Singapore collapse there would have been little military intelligence useful to the Japanese. The beatings, overwork and lack of food, medicines and medical treatment killed many thousands of PoWs and this in itself could be thought of as torture.

Most modern Japanese remain blissfully unaware of their treatment of PoWs of all Allied nations, not just Australians.

One notable aspect of torture as it relates to Japan during WWII is the fact that though far less known, they operated agencies of torture and human experimentation that rivaled or even surpassed Nazi Germany in cruelty and creativity. "Unit 731" was the code name for the agency that conducted many of the most insidious acts, which included the following (from wikipedia.com):

Vivisection without anesthesia
Germ warfare and viral infection without treatment
Other miscellaneous acts:

  • being hung upside down to see how long it would take for them to choke to death.[11]
  • having air injected into their arteries to determine the time until the onset of embolism.[11]
  • having horse urine injected into their kidneys.[11]
  • being deprived of food and water to determine the length of time until death.
  • being placed into high-pressure chambers until death.
  • being exposed to extreme temperatures and developing frostbite to determine how long humans could survive with such an affliction, and to determine the effects of rotting and gangrene on human flesh.[11]
  • having experiments performed upon prisoners to determine the relationship between temperature, burns, and human survival.
  • being placed into centrifuges and spun until dead.
  • having animal blood injected and the effects studied.
  • being exposed to lethal doses of x-ray radiation.
  • having various chemical weapons tested on prisoners inside gas chambers.
  • being injected with sea water to determine if it could be a substitute for saline.
  • being buried alive. (Victims included infants.)

How do Egyptians torture people?

Methods of torture in Egypt entirely depend on the government in power at the time. In Ancient Egypt, innocent people were kept as slaves and whipped. If someone tried to steal somthing from the Pharaoh or his entourage, they were often executed. In modern Egypt, torture is officially illegal, although there are numerous stories of torture by the Egyptian police. Some forms of torture are mild, such as sensory overload, sleep deprivation and similar problems. Egyptian police are also known to have waterboarded and aggresively beaten individuals for information. However, Egyptian police do not often perform the more aggressive forms of torture that are universally condemned.

How many people died under US torture?

Since September 11, 2001 no one is known to have been killed while under interrogation or any controversial interrogation methods that some may consider torture. Torture is against every branches field manual, United States law, the Geneva Convention, UN Human Rights laws, and the United States military law of armed conflict and rules of engagement. In July, 2007 Former President Bush signed an executive order to not torture terror suspects to underscore this as well, although waterboarding was not included in the torture methods described. But no one is reported to have been killed by waterboarding and CIA documents show that only three terror suspects have received waterboarding since 9/11.
