"cut of his thimbs and big toes" Man they did some weird stuff back in the day!

This just made me burst out laughing.

 

Judges 1:6-7(NKJV)

Then Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and big toes. 

And Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off used to gather scraps under my table; as I have done, so God has repaid me.” Then they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.

 

Cut off his thumbs and big toes?  Now I laughed before reading the reason that they did that to Adoni-Bezek.  I just amazes me the weird ways people come up with to torture and degrade others.  It initially made me laugh but it is pretty sad as well.
