The DISTURBING Postmortem Of King Henry VIII

- Throughout History, one of the most ruthless and brutal Kings to reign over England was Henry VIII, who during the Tudor period sentenced many people to death including two of his own wives. The King showed little mercy and he would also not take any nonsense from his subjects and he ordered everyone to follow his rules and orders. Henry VIII during his 4 decades on the throne of England sentenced between 50,000 to 70,000 people to death inside of his land, and this was roughly 3% of the population of the nation. But the King in his final days was a shadow of his former self, and he was someone who put on a huge amount of weight as he became very immobile due to an accident he had in the years before. But despite the chaos of the King’s reign and the blood shed all across England, Henry VIII’s death was one that did not mirror this. He died in peace and in a relative state of calm, but Henry did in his final moments acknowledge the sins that he had committed which included the execution of his wives Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, and for this he thought that he would be destined for the flames of hell. But what did the most infamous King in History die from? Let’s look at the disturbing postmortem of Henry VIII.
As a retired ICU /trauma RN, I am pretty sure ole fat Henry sustained an injury to the frontal lobe of his brain and this caused a change in his personality (as it usually does in people that suffer a closed head injury in that region). As far as his actual death, I lean toward hypertension, diabetes, and morbid obesity. I’m pretty sure he’s frying somewhere now. I’m not a MD and don’t deign to be one. This is my opinion, not a diagnosis.
I agree. He was never the same after that jousting accident and definitely caused major personality changes.
After doing 2 years as a general surgery residency with days and nights spent in the SICU with open heart patients, peripheral vascular patients and any others post-surgically, I recognized very early that those SICU nurses were an incredible asset. They could make you look good if you treated them with respect or they could leave you hanging out to dry. Your years of experience gives great credibility to your opinions. There are many former patients whose lives can likely be attributed to your outstanding care.

I expect Henry's 500 pounds has something to do with his death.
He was more of a tyrant than a king.
With the chronic ulcers and infections, sepsis is a good guess.
Henry was a serial killer we hate Richard the third for the killings of the Princes in the tower what about all the other Kings and Queens who killed so many people
People are still murdering in the name of religion.
I agree re sepsis and disgusting lack of hygeine all round🤢
His son Edward and his daughter Mary turned out to be rather sickly creatures and did not live long, but Elizabeth I was an exeption, she lived to a respectable age.
That leg ulcer was a Syphillis Chancre. This accounts for the first child of whatever wife/mistress being born healthy and the subsequent ones premature or still born. It also accounts for his wild mood swings and violet temper.
I was thinking about him while I was vacuuming today. I was thinking about how unfair it is that he blamed his wives for birthing girls, or stillborn children, or miscarrying boys. I’d really like the opportunity to tell him that it’s the father’s genetics that determine gender and it was never the fault of his wives for having miscarriages or still births. What a jerk he was.
Alliums and crocuses are up
That’s not right. His leg wound was an old leg fracture from the jousting accident in which the bones didn’t heal and became infected and intermittently drained. 😮
Add TBI after his jousting accident
@stephanienewhouse2056 I've seen it noted that syphillis victims suffer from serious facial deformities, such as losing their noses. Now we all know that most portraits are 'enhanced' to make the subject look much better, but I *don't* believe that no one would gossip about the king's case of the "French Pox".
Henry was a psychopath.
Very possibly, but whose words are you quoting?
Mine.
@@rotorheadv8”My source is I made it the fuck up!!”
He had a head injury from a jousting accident. Look at some of the other posts. A frontal lobe injury can cause major personality changes.
He also had a bone infection that never healed. The pain from that alone would make most of us angry
@@auroraborealis6009bullcrap
So sorry for his health difficulties, but they can't be an excuse for his cruelty and brutality.
Actually a closed brain injury can be a pretty good reason for his cruelty. Before that he was actually well liked by the people, when he was young.
Any votes for syphilitic infection?
I'm surprised that his ulcerated legs didn't give him blood poisoning plus the odour would have been bad
And we have evidence (testimonies) that his leg wound smelled so horrible, servants and courtiers had a hard time being in close proximity to him, so I'm with you on this.
Diabetes related complications complicated by high blood pressure and obesity
I’m surprised that he lived as long as he did, the SOB.
Maybe he wasn't thinking about the wives he killed but St Thomas More? I consider that his ultimate betrayal
Wait, so why exactly is one betrayal somehow more ultimate or profound than the other? Because the guy he betrayed is a man? Because I would think that giving a man, a child and then being beheaded under false charges is pretty ultimate betrayal. 🙄
@@pamorama Anne Boleyn had done more than enough to get to the chopping block without those charges. Conspiring against the Queen of England ring a bell?
But regardless. To Henry Anne had a least done something to him. Failed to produce an heir. Thomas More had done nothing.
Thomas More was far from being an innocent hero. He had ordered the burning alive of "heretics" .
Betrayal? His brutal divorce and imprisonment of his faithful wife Catharine of Aragon was particularly harsh and as for his betrayals, it seems he couldn’t have hurt anyone else more deeply than her and his eldest daughter Queen Mary. I think his behavior set the stage for Queen Elizabeth to never ever trust in love or marriage.
@@04nbod I've read copious perspectives on the history. My comment to you is why is one betrayal more "ultimate" than another. If you love a man, bear a man a child and absolutely did NOT betray anyone--proven over and over again to be an excuse he conjured up to get rid of her--being beheaded is a pretty darn ultimate betrayal. Did Thomas More sleep with him, and bear him a child who indeed WAS the heir? You are valuing the man, and a male perspective over reason.
I'm just going to say what everybody else is thinking. That bedchamber had a stench worthy of the way he reigned.
you miss tertiary syphilis, which could have affected his brain and caused his mental disorder
Plus his closed head injury
I've read two contradicting accounts one that his medical records show He received none of the treatments for syphilis known at the time. Another alleged that all his children suffered from hereditary syphilis which was why they had such trouble producing heirs.
And yet again one of the allegations of Anne Boleyn was that she did give his majesty the king the French Pox which may well have been as false as the other allegations against her.
Not to mention the ‘intractable sore’ on his leg was a Syphilis chancre.
@@stephanienewhouse2056you keep saying that when you don't know.
Pretty sure the dude that painted Henry cross eyed (the last portrait) was sentenced to death!😜
I wrote in my book, The King's Raven, about Henry's last minutes and his movement in a lead lined casket. My book is fiction, but it will make you think about how Henry was thought of by the common man. Did you know that his body was stolen for a brief period.
Do you know who stole it, and why? And when would this have happened?
It’s the exploding part that gets me. I keep visualizing the video of the whale they deliberately exploded on a beach to get rid of the carcass.
A beached dead whale is a hazard. Methane gases can build up inside until the corpse burst.
He was a cruel glutton.
Anne Boleyn was probably Rhesus negative
Based on the information in this and other RH videos that also touch on the matter, my guess is he died of sudden cardiac arrest 😂
What caused this…. My thoughts lean to the morbid obesity coupled with likely type 2 diabetes. Add a traumatic brain injury causing behavioral changes, and medical care based on voodoo and not science, you have a perfect recipe for death.
Lastly, I have been seeing quite offensive comments lately on the channel’s videos. Please don’t be too discouraged by them. I really enjoy your videos. And to go after your voice, is honestly such trash bs and not worth your time thinking about. You’re doing great 👍🏼
Henry the eighth deserves descration. He admitted he was heading to hell. I won’t argue his point. I don’t need to add with others he was a monster
He looks like Chumlee on Pawn Stars.
He looks more like Chaz Bono.
😂😂😂
Hey, you take that back.
@henrythemuthafuckineighth No, I won't take that back! What are you going to do, Your Royal Hind-end - I mean "Highness"? Have me beheaded??
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤭🤭🤭🤣🤣🤣
Physically manifested what evil inside looks like.
Thank you this was very interesting😊
Sooooo, what are the results of the postmortem???? Thumbs down.
King psychopath period. He came from hell and went back to it .
Thank you for making this interesting compact video.
what was henry's favourite comfort food? maybe we don't know but it wasn't ben and jerry's icecream
I expected some sort of excavation based on the picture, not a long history lesson lol
The huge codpieces were vanity and wanting to broadcast he was still virile.
Didn’t he have syphilis too?
but how could he explode of his body was cut open to take out his heart / organs ?
I'm curious about WHO these executioners were 😨and how they got that gruesome & unholy job 😨
That was the pay back for the seven wives he betrayed.🤫

Henry executed Anne Boleyn because he believed Anne was unable to bear him a son. Historian Retha Warnecke thinks Henry believed Anne was a was a “witch” because she miscarried a malformed male fetus. Warnecke thinks Henry would have viewed Anne’s miscarriage as a sign he would ever have a son with her. One historian believes it’s possible Anne may have had an Rh antigen that would have prevented her from bearing more children. He executed Katherine Howard, a cousin of Anne’s, because of her sexual escapades before her marriage, and her affair with a younger man during her marriage with Henry. He also treated Catherine of Aragon abominably and she died of a rare cardiac tumor.
He wanted a son and heir. At the time people didn’t know that the child’s sex is determined by the father’s contribution of an X or Y chromosome. Many people STILL don’t understand that and blame the wife for not producing sons.
So many people were illiterate and never ventured more than a mile or two from their villages and never developed critical thinking skills. Their lives revolved around staying alive. At the time, that was a difficult task.
If people have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever it’s not hard to come up with what we see as nonsensical explanations for things.
Since he was the king with absolute power, his “advisors “ had a vested interest in telling him what he wanted to hear because they wanted to stay alive. Since they couldn’t say that maybe it was HIS fault that he couldn’t produce a healthy heir, it was more expedient to blame it on all of the women he slept with.
6 wives. Divorced (Katherine of Aragon), beheaded (Anne Boleyn), died (Jane Seymour), divorced (Anne of Cleves), beheaded (Catherine Howard), survived (Katherine Parr)
@@stephanienewhouse2056 My dad was from the UK and he taught me that!
What happened to the post mortem?
I was thinking that too. Good video, but not as promised.
more click bait it seems
Scary King. The Poor People had To Deal With.
It was a completely different time then. We should not judge the dead. As for me, I hope he has found forgiveness and rests in peace. His diabetes, syphilis and brain injury have without doubt caused great suffering during his later years.
What a revolting tyrannical monarch.
I hope his creator judged him accordingly.
Every natural death is from cardio-pulmonary collapse
Nothing in this video concerns any type of "Postmortem". Only conjecture and hearsay.
Perhaps you should have watched the full program before passing judgement. I have no recollection of reference to a post Morten.
@@jennyshaw5098 Perhaps you should look at the title of the video "The DISTURBING Postmortem Of King Henry VIII"

Sorry didn't finish that. At the time of his death I dont believe pms were carried out. So obviously it was a modern analysis of the facts known of his death loosely called a pm.
Different From - Similar To.
Depends on which part of the English speaking world you are from.
No it doesn't. "Different from, similar to, compare with". English is English regardless of where you live. .
@@judyjurek9334 Clearly you aren't familiar with English as spoken outside your own area. Read (or listen to) English as used in the UK, or Australia, for example. Lots of books by British authors, lots of DVDs of British TV and movies out there. Your library should have some.
Even kings die and pain 😢😢😢
Don’t feel sorry for this man. He’s a murderer
The United States should remember that it owes Evangelism to King Henry VIII.
Meaning🤷🏻♂️
The evil of the reformation:
Ah, don't think so. Read your history if you want a reason. Evangelism started here, as a reaction to Henry's Catholic version of protesentism.
The Protestant Reformation developed in other places as well. Martin Luther for example was German.
Religion played a different role in society at that time in history
Commiserations for your misfortune, I guess that you have to blame somebody for it.
He got rid of the catholic hierarchy just like uk got rid off the eu. This started the rise of England as a no.1 super power.
He died from an overactive chip pan
Surprised you didn’t get any thumbs up for that, it made me laugh.
I think his temperament changed due to CTE. He fell or was knocked off his horse numerous times. I don't like what he became, but I can't condemn him for it.
I agree, glad you said it. That brain injury changed him dramatically.
A shadow of his former self but hugely over weight 🙈
The jousting injury could have been the caused some of his cruelty, but he was ruthless before.
Why do most of the paintings make his right side look so much wider/larger? The livery collar looks off balanced...
What a character!
Yes, pretty much the most famous King ever.
👍🏼👀✨
Beware, Grave robbers at work. So much for the idea of "Rest in Peace"
I thought King Henry VIII died of syphillis?
Im sure he lost a lot of wait😂
Respectfully. Fallen Stone of Karma.
i see many of you have been assigned your opinion of a man who lived in an utterly different age.
Well said. The opinion mongers and ignorami “out there” are so happy to voice their nonsensical ideas and, more dangerously, the trash media who print their rubbishy, unsubstantiated rubbish.
Are the Tudors the only era of interest to UA-camrs?
All conjecture, what’s the point, if you cannot substantiate your pontifications?
Who “assigned” us our opinions, sir?
It’s not fair to judge the behavior of a historical figure based on our current laws and moral standards.
Society was very different, medical knowledge was nonexistent and kings ruled absolutely. Human rights were unknown and might made right.
By our standards it was brutal, but 500 years ago it was business as usual
Misleading title
Henry could still be in purgatory if he escaped Hell !
JUST SAY NO TO ENGLAND
How very dare you, off with your head.
Solid evil
There was no such illnesses like heart disease or diabetes or cholesterol in those times. Those are modern illnesses.
You're wrong. Ancient medical treatises from Rome, Greece, and China, clearly describe these diseases even if they weren't called by these names. Plus dissection of mummies from around the world show evidence of these diseases.
are you sure ?
Haha ... LOL
Just for your information
Wriothesley is pronounced "Risley"
Its always good to get this right.
Watch Wolf Hall. Risley and its pronunciation explanation features in the series.
The Blessed Hilary Mantel‘s Wolf Hall trilogy refers to Wriothesley as „Call Me Risley“ mocking the explanation given as to correct way to pronounce the name.
What was she eating during this narration? Chocolate?
😂😅😂😅
@@emf49 Lol, you heard that too??
Quite off putting! Eating? Out of breath?
this is not worth a look see at all. Don't waste your time.
And he invented CE even though he was adulter, bigamist and head chopper and tyrant.
And he started his own church which is as false as he was🤌
I d9nt like the modern religious either. I will stay with the Allfather till Ragnarok.
He’s not the only one. There have been a lot of religious movements throughout history founded by one person. Some are called cults. Some are considered mainstream. Remember the Branch Davidians, the Moonies, even the group (forgot the name) who killed themselves so they could catch a ride on a comet? Or whatever it was.
The Mormons were started by one man.
They all depend on faith, not solid proof
He wasn’t the first and won’t be the last. Think of the Mormons and Joseph Smith, Scientology, the Moonies, Branch Davidians and so on
Aren't they all?
Any church is false. The whole rotten lot of them.
click bait title means i unsubscribe. waste some onev elses time. good bye
I can certainly relate to him killing two wives - I've been married 6 times (or is it 7 - I can't remember all their names now), but there were a couple amongst that lot Henry V111 would not have put up with!
What a catch you must have been.
@@kalayne6713 I've been caught many times...but have always managed to wriggle free!! 😀
Appalling!! Sounds as though she's eating!! Is this a genuine site?
Lol
Always sounds like this, often with mispronunciation. Annoying.
I do not think he had syphillis. He didnt have to use the same women that the rest of society did. He had horrible gout, unhealed injuries, guilt, obesity, and his body exploded because it was huge and attended in his room and was rotting in its corpulence and the heat.
henry 8 was fatter than jabba the hut
