I didn't know what this thread was about... but then I found the video on YouTube. I had never seen that kind of turkey-killing contraption before.
Also amusing was a related video (I had searched for "Palin" and "turkey") of Michael Palin at a turkish bath. I found it interesting that the attendant/masseur at the bath wears only a towel as he massages, cleans and scrubs the customer (Palin wears the same towel).
