Discussion Could COVID-19 be caused by King Tut's curse?

[Amol S.]

King Tut's coffin was opened and his mummy was sent to a museum almost 97 years before COVID-19 was first discovered. Could the curse of King Tut caused the Covid-19 Pandemic just 2 -3 years before the 100 year mark of the removal of the coffin?

No.

 

[IronWing]

Yes.

 

[sdifox]

Maybe

 

[BoomerD]

If by "King Tut's Curse," you mean that it either escaped...or was intentionally released from a Chinese bio-lab...then maybe.

 

[MtnMan]

Step away from the bong, and don't buy any more of those shrooms...

 

[deustroop]

I did not disturb that mummy. I disturbed your mummy.

I suppose we cannot prove that the two are not related, but we also cannot prove that you joining this forum wasn't the actual catalyst that eventually led to this pandemic.

Well, if you have covid-19 and yell "Tut, Tut Tut" in an enclosed space you're expelling enough germs to infect a lot of people, so maybe so.

HOW THE CURSE OF TIMUR'S TOMB CHANGED THE COURSE OF WORLD WAR II

Timur’s Tomb and World War II
The “curse” Timur’s Tomb changed the course of the War two times, the first time when Stalin opened it, and the second when he returned the remains to the tomb.
Stalin ordered anthropologist and historian Mikhail Gerasimov to open the Timur’s Tomb in 1941. At the time, Gerasimov was a known and popular anthropologist famous for reconstructing a face from a skull. His job was to do that with Timur’s skull, and Mikhail succeeded. Soviets opened the Tomb on June 20, 1942. The tomb was immediately filed with odor of camphor, resin, rose and frankincense. Research showed that the odor was coming from the oils used for embalming. Two days after the Soviets opened the Tomb, Hitler and Nazis invaded Russia. The invasion came without formal declaration of War. The operation was known as “Operation Barbarossa”. It is worth noting that three elder men warned Gerasimov and the Soviets that the Tomb is cursed and something might happen. The men told the Soviets that the curse takes effect after 3 days. The Soviet Union suffered numerous defeats at the hand of Hitler. And even though the Nazi were far from conquering Russia, they made progress.
Then, after few months, Stalin started believing in the curse, and ordered that the remains of Timur be returned to the Tomb. Stalin ordered that the process is done with full Islamic burial rights. The Soviets returned the remains to the tomb in December 1942. Nearly a month later, the Nazi surrendered and Stalin won the Battle of Stalingrad. The battle remains as one of the bloodiest in the history of mankind, not just the World War II.

Ah well, if they buried an egyptian with full islamic rites, i'm sure he would have appreciated the novelty.

Different guy, Timur was Central Asian. He managed to kill between eight and seventeen million people at a time when there were a lot fewer people to kill and it took a lot more effort to get to them. He was a dedicated soul.

"Ah, yes, I have conceived the perfect curse... it will smite the globe with a pestilence.

But not until after the people who violated my tomb have already long since passed on."

Tut's tomb was opened on Nov 22. JFK was shot on Nov 22. OMG! Tut killed JFK!

Supposedly he killed off 5% of world population. That is a lot of killing.

lol. perfect Norm McDonald joke. long setup, mundane punchline. Notice how whatshisface (can't remember that guys name) says at the end: "Now I know there isn't an Albert Fish," because that's what Norm does.

(but there actually was an Albert Fish)
