BOWELS OF STEEL


The King of Southern England, Edmund Ironside, was murdered in 1016 whilst sitting on the toilet. He sat down on the wooden box, blissfully aware that an enemy knight, Eric Streona, was lurking in the pit below. Streone thrust his sword with such force up the royal back passage that it became firmly embedded in his bowels.

The King, thinking the agony was a result of constipation, strained so hard that he burst a blood vessel in his brain, and died as a result. The sword shot out of his bowel, hitting the hapless Eric on the head, knocking him senseless. He spent the rest of his life having conversations with inanimate objects and displaying a morbid fear of toilets...







PRESIDENTIAL PENIS




Felix Faure, President of France died in 1899 whilst having sex in a Paris brothel. His sudden death sent the woman into shock. His penis had to be surgically removed from her vagina.

His wife requested that the penis be buried in unconsecrated ground with a stake through the foreskin to prevent her errant husband from ghostly philanderings.

PO-ETIC JUSTICE


Michael Anderson Godwin spent years awaiting the electric chair in South Carolina. He finally had his sentence for murder commuted to life imprisonment. In March 1989, whilst sitting on the metal toilet in his cell, he attempted to fix his portable TV set. He bit into a wire and electrocuted himself.
Who said God doesn't work in mysterious ways?

Shocking!
