An alternative, would be to put them in a big drum (like a hamster's wheel) and make them walk, thereby turning a generator. If they don't want to walk anymore, they can stop....but the drum will keep turning  |
Mont St. Michel in France has just such a device. The monastery/church is high on the top of a mountain and they have a big wheel inside which prisoners walked to winch supplies up to the top of the mountain.
