Everything You Didn't Need To Know About Henry VIII's Ulcerated Leg

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
King Henry VIII has gone down as being one of the greatest medieval villains - a man with a tyrannical attitude and penchant for killing people he disagreed with (executing approximately 57, 000 people in his time on the throne. However, it's possible that his inhumane ways may have stemmed from an excruciatingly painful condition - a leg injury that Henry VIII struggled with for over 10 years. Nothing sucks more than getting old, injured. your whole body basically ruined. and having to look back at your former self. and the reputation that your former self used to have, and look at your current self and accept that its just a weak and broken, outdated version of the awesome you.
Then imagine that you are the king and intend to be for a few more dozen years, and you still want to give that "I am the man" vibes out to the world, even after your leg is "ulcerated".
That would be a hard spot to be in.

210 lbs with a 32" waist and you say that woudlnt even be enough to be a defensive lineman
Show me a dude who is 210lbs with a 32" waist. their height would make a difference as well, but that would be a dude who is BUILT and you definitely would think twice before messing with them.
For example. Arnold Schwarzenegger is 6'2" but was at 225lbs for one of his Olympia competitions. When he was in his best shape. 15lbs is a bit of difference, I get that, but that is in comparison to the freaking terminator.
He had a 33" waist at that time too. I would think that a dude who is "that much smaller" would look almost as impressive. 15lbs lighter, but with a waist smaller than Arnies Come on.

He also very likely received a severe concussion from the accident which could have caused a brain injury thereby possibly changing his personality.
I know this theory is a tad out there, but it’s possible.

I believe that he suffered from a King's madness, which is something that his father had and many monarch's would have had because of either royal inbreeding, fighting too many wars or trying to get an heir

I don't know why I need these facts or whether this information will come in handy one day. Regardless, I really enjoy these videos and I learn so much. Thank you!

He was a royal jerk and tyrant and unfortunately for him this lead to his downfall and he reaped what he sewed. He died the way he lived.
reply

Its possible that he could have had brain trauma from when the horse fell on him and other resulting injuries and conditions made it worse

As a person that has pain the ulcers most likely are the cause of his grumpy disposition. The difference is I have pain meds lol

Not sure it's the right niche but if anyone's interested in Tudor warfare I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's relative playlist

I think at his funeral, they were far more likely to have sung, He’s Henry the VIII he was, he was, he’s Henry the VIII he was!
