You have probably heard of weird or completely wrong laws all over the world. Some are left from older times, when values and morals were different, however, some have no justification what so ever. Well, the United Kingdom is no exception to this. Here are the crown's ten most bizarre laws.

| A ruthless crime in the act |
In 1585 a law was passed that announced scolding in a public for an offence and was persecuted to the law. As unbelievable as it may sound, there was even punishment for the ones that scolded. The "cold-hearted" criminals had to wear a scolder's bridle or in some cases - a metal cage around their head. Some sources indicate of a third punishment for scolding. It was called "the ducking chair". As you might have already guessed, the offenders were strapped to a chair and then repeatedly ducked in water.
