The life and death of Tutankhamun have intrigued researchers ever since the treasure trove of the boy king's tomb was first discovered in 1922 -- and a fresh examination of the famous pharaoh’s remains is only likely to add to the fascination after two sensational findings were revealed. The first: that King Tut’s body may have spontaneously combusted when it was inside his sarcophagus after a botched mummification. The second: that Tutankhamun may have died in battle after a chariot smashed into him while the warrior king was leading his army. www.foxnews.com/science/2013/11/04/tutankhamun-spontaneously-combusted/ |

I don't believe either one. Just my 2 cents.

It was no accident! That maggot Marsala from "Ben Hur" used his hub-spikes to shred Tut's wheel in the last turn - murder most foul!
Somebody should tell Steve Martin.

I saw a special a couple years ago, I think on the History channel, hypothesizing that Tutankhamun died as result of a chariot accident, lots of Xrays showing the injury and poor healing. Don;t recall anything about burning tho...

It was his own fault. He wawsn't wearing his helmet. Ask just about any bicyclist; plastic and styrofoam hats can protect you from accidents. Add a spandex suit and you're d@mn near invulnerable
