An international team of researchers studying King Tutankhamun are reporting some surprising new discoveries about the ancient boy king.

The scientists say that a ‘virtual autopsy’ of Tut — essentially a close analysis of a life-size image of the king made from more than 2,000 CT scans of his mummified remains — shows that he had buck teeth and a club foot as well as a girlish figure.

The findings, featured in a new BBC One documentary entitled “Tutankhamun: The Truth Uncovered,” suggest a new explanation for King Tut’s mysterious death.

What killed King Tut? And what happened to his body afterward?

British archaeologist Howard Carter first discovered the Egyptian pharaoh’s well-preserved mummy in 1922. Ever since, scientists have tried to figure out what killed the pharaoh, who reigned for 10 years until his death at age 19 around the year 1324 B.C. Theories include everything from epilepsy to blunt force trauma.

But there’s never been a clear consensus.

Now British egyptologist Dr. Chris Naunton, director of the Egypt Exploration Society, has thrown his hat into the already-crowded ring. A new documentary will present his findings, which suggest King Tut died in a chariot accident — and then later spontaneously combusted inside his sarcophagus due to a botched embalming.

Holy smokes!
