Klein Henszlein [Klaus Hanslein] (died 1573) was a German pirate from 1560 to 1573 who raided shipping in the North Sea until his defeat and capture by a fleet from Hamburg. Taken back to Hamburg, Henszlein and his men were paraded through the city streets before being beheaded on September 10, 1573; their heads were then impaled on stakes. In a later account, the executioner described how he "flicked off" the heads of the thirty-three pirates (not including Henszlein) in only 45 minutes, then proceeding to behead the bodies of those pirates killed during their capture. He later claimed to have been "standing in blood so deep that it well nigh in his shoes did creep".

  • Klein Henszlein (Klaus Hanslein) (hingerichtet 10. September 1573 in Hamburg) war ein wegen seines geringen Wuchses so bezeichneter Pirat, der von 1560 bis zu seiner Festsetzung durch eine Hamburger Flotte 1573 Handelsschiffe innerhalb der Nordsee ausraubte. Er wurde zusammen mit 33 ihm angehörigen Seeräubern in Hamburg durch Enthaupten hingerichtet und ihre Köpfe auf Picken aufgerichtet. (de)
  • Klein Henszlein, ou Klaus Hanslein (mort en 1573) est un pirate allemand actif sur la mer du Nord de 1560 à 1573. Il finit par être capturé par une flotte originaire de Hambourg, où il sera d’ailleurs ramené avec son équipage. On les fait parader dans les rues de la ville avant de les exécuter par décapitation. Les têtes sont ensuite plantées sur des piques. Plus tard, leur bourreau racontera comment il a facilement ôté leur tête à 33 pirates (Henszlein n’en fait pas partie) en 45 minutes seulement, puis comment il a décapité les corps des pirates qui avaient été tués durant la bataille. Il racontera également qu’il se tenait « debout dans tellement de sang qu’il en avait presque dans ses chaussures ». (fr)
