First Name Joseph-Ignace
Born on May 28, 1738
Died on March 26, 1814 (aged 75)

Joseph-Ignace Guillotin was a French physician, politician and freemason who proposed on 10 October 1789 the use of a device to carry out death penalties in France, as a less painful method of execution than existing methods.

The actual inventor of the prototype was a man named Tobias Schmidt, working with the king's physician, Antoine Louis.
