Why does threading stop after starting multiple threads?

Question

Python

I have a block of code:

result = []
        def parse(i):
            try:
                request_phrase = ' '.join(
                    [words_from_img[x] for x in range(i, i + 10)])
                doujin_page = requests.get(f'https://somesite.com/search?search={request_phrase}')
                soup = BeautifulSoup(doujin_page.content, 'html.parser')
                problem_ids = [i.text.split()[-1]  for i in soup.find_all('span', {'class': 'prob_nums'})]

                for id in problem_ids:
                    if id not in result:
                        result.append(id)
            except Exception as E:
                pass

        thread_pool = []

        for i in range(0, len(words_from_img)):
            thread = threading.Thread(target=parse, args=(i,))
            thread_pool.append(thread)
            thread.start()

        for thread in thread_pool:
            thread.join()

Which, in theory, should parse the pages of the site with different search answers.
But after generating several threads, the program simply stops running, i.e. like it's hanging

Answer 1

First, we need to remove the catching of wide exceptions. Secondly, you need to add more debug output and run under the debugger to understand what exactly "just stops running" means. The obvious assumption is that somesite.com detects parsing, blocks access, an exception is thrown in the parse function, which you silently swallow and the thread exits.
