Ishikawa Goemon (1558–1594) was a semi-legendary outlaw folk hero who stole from the rich and gave to the poor. He and his son were sentenced to being boiled alive after he made a failed attempt to assassinate the warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi. According to popular legend, he managed to save his son by holding the boy above his head while he endured the boiling water for as long as possible. This heroic deed inspired his executioners to spare the boy. Goemon was an often-recurring character in popular theatre and literature.
