About: The Man They Couldn't Hang   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/Z2bGbqWeSeHQoumg8p8Gog==, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

A character who has survived a hanging. They will frequently sport a scarred or deformed neck as a result. This may just indicate that he is a real hard case and too tough to kill easily, or it may be used to show what a bad life he has led and to explain his hatred of the world. A Bungled Suicide may also be involved. If he survived three attempts, a sporting (or superstitious) executioner may have let him go. Probably because it's best to keep on the good side of a Badass like that. Shoot the Rope may be used to explain their survival. Not to be confused with men who are well hung.
