William the Conqueror was born ‘William the Bastard’, and that’s how he went out.
His death was relatively normal by medieval standards – falling off his horse – but it’s what happened afterwards that got him on this list.
The balmy weather had bloated William’s body to the point where it wouldn’t fit in the sarcophagus. A group of bishops tried forcing him into it, and… you’ve seen that Monty Python sketch with the fat guy, Mr Creosote, pigging out in the restaurant? Yeah…
William’s abdomen ruptured, causing a medieval-strength fart explosion so strong, scholars of the time thought it worthy of writing down.
