[edit] Image removed
I see that the image of James Inglis was removed several times due to source/licensing doubts. I found that the image was reprinted in Syd Dernley's "The Hangman's Tale" with credit to the Hull Daily Mail. I emailed the editor of that paper with a request to clarify the copyright question. Perhaps we'll get his permission (if the paper is the copyright holder), or he can direct us to the copyright holder or his/her heirs.--Kauko56 11:49, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
'he later related...' eer how could he do that, he was dead -- hahaha that was funny though
[edit] A Guinness World Record holder?
Re: the listing under "Guinness World Record Holders". We know that this hanging was the fastest ever carried out in a British prison, but I doubt it is actually certified as such by the Guinness body...! --UD75 (talk) 23:46, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

- Yes, it was certified, and used to be a standard entry within the Guinness Book Of Records, until the removal of Norris McQuirter and the change of the book's content to a more "populist" format (ie. they see what is currently in vogue in the zeitgeist, and then start looking for "records" for them to have. Nowadays it's more like the famous spoof "Daily Mirror Book Of Facts from TV's The Young Ones "Bambi aka University Challenge" episode.Mark Boyle (talk) 19:03, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
