Opening The Coffin Of Jane Boleyn

Inside the Tower of London during the reign of King Henry VIII, two of the Tudor monarch’s wives were executed upon the scaffold on Tower Green. Anne Boleyn was the Second wife of the King, and she was executed by sword, but Catherine Howard was the tragic fifth wife of the King who was allegedly a teenager when she was executed by axe. Catherine had been sentenced to death for treason and adultery behind her husbands back, but one woman who was implicated in the whole Catherine Howard scandal was a woman who allegedly arranged for the Queen to have time and liaisons with her lover, the King’s favourite courtier Thomas Culpeper. But Jane Boleyn was the sister in law of the King’s second wife Anne Boleyn, and she has gone down in History as being a woman who was rather sinister, and she may have even sent her own husband to the block on Tower Hill. But her coffin was opened centuries after her execution inside of the Tower of London’s chapel.

I can't escape a feeling of looking at the face of a psychopath every time the portrait of Henry VIII pops up

[@SealeA1987]

I actually thought we was going to see the ‘opening’ of the coffin. Maybe the title should be amended as it is a little misleading

[@MarkFinnegan-h8k]

Ya ghoul,,,,,, metaphor of course. I can imagine you with your crisps and cuppa. Your disappointment was probably measurable on the Richter scale ☹️☹️☹️

[@gaiuspliniussecundus1455]

Me too

[@PPuffNstuff]

"A little"???????

[@janicem9225]

Click bait like nearly all RUclips channels these days.

[@onlyonekate2011]

Can't get enough of The Tudors, thank you!

[@frankfolino3118]

Yes, but the videos are RARELY actually about “opening the coffin of ____”.

[@bennettjill36]

I know, purely click-bait.

[@mollymcnaughton3133]

The click bait has gotten old...🙄😒

[@arlenedavis5770]

It's enough to make one want to scream.

[@washguy9577]

All the boleyn family were not victims they were just as ruthless as Henry they just lost the game

[@alanparks7919]

The Tudors were such an immoral and bloody lot. They had everything in life, but are likely bereft in eternity.

[@dwightmatheny]

I think I will stop watching your videos until you start using truthful titles.

[@franm.8343]

You showed three different portraits of men and a banner stating "George Boleyn". When none of them have been definitely certified as him.

[@alexisl4158]

Thank you ! Very interesting. Very good presentation. 😊

[@debrakleid5752]

George Boleyn looks similar to King Henry 8th. Can’t imagine living during that time period and having to fear if you would end up on the block or not.

[@daneaxe6465]

Even being Henry's BFF was no guarantee you would escape the Tower.

[@chiasanzes9770]

Nothing has changed. Human is the most evil animal on this Earth.

[@PhilipOsborne-rz9eu]

Even the dead can't be left alone

[@vegetariansuniteworldwide8091]

How can someone be a half second cousin? I am into the Tudors and their genealogy and I thought I knew everything!

[@thomasmorningstar1381]

Second cousins are the grandchildren of siblings. If the siblings were half siblings, wouldn’t that make the grandchildren half second cousins?

[@deniserowley8549]

Young women marrying an old man it must have been awful time for the young women.

[@SamanthaOhara-r6l]

It's a very sad story Insanity and barbaric all the women's lives that were murdered.

[@flojo10310]

Misleading title

[@1aikane]

Work on your headlines. They are a bit sensationalized

[@gabrielagarciamayagoitia1599]

Does anybody know exactly how many people were executed by Henry VIII?

[@OpalLeigh]

It’s also crazy that he killed so many women 🙊 like usually at that time women were more likely to be spared the death penalty. But Henry didn’t respect anything or anyone.

[@geeb4994]

I can’t help but think, that King Henry’s personality changed to the detriment, after his near death brush at the titling yard, when he was knocked unconscious.
Many people who have suffered severe head trauma (car accidents/cycle collisions) have showed signs of character changes.
Could this have been the cause of his paranoia of dying without Heirs ?

[@karenlenk1724]

I've read a few sources state around 70,000. No one can really know for sure as much has been lost on time but it's an educated estimate

[@daneaxe6465]

@@karenlenk1724 I really question where and how that oft mentioned 70k. Its highly doubtful Henry had the spare time to write up 70k death warrants. Frankly if the number does have a source I'd list the power structure of the Roman Catholic system as the #1 suspect. They had the most to gain by slandering Henry.

[@MarkFinnegan-h8k]

"it's good to be the king"!!! 👍

[@gretchenzwicker338]

Anne and George resemble one another..if you go by Holbeins sketches of Anne. (I happen to believe they are Anne)❤

[@hypercomms2001]

For some weird reason...I am thinking of "Boris the Executioner"... "I could not possibly fit them into until Monday... I am booked solid..."...

[@robertfindley9000]

Henry also was an adulterer, How many others are there before charles 111

[@MarkFinnegan-h8k]

Ya know how power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely??? We know how men are incapable of keeping it in their trousers (I'm generalising deliberately) try to imagine them with everything 'on tap' without consequences ☹️

[@mippim8765]

....wtf was wrong with these people..

[@cindynoble1532]

It was probably all a lie. No one helped her commit adultery. The king just wanted to get out of his marriage .

[@granny686]

who is jane boleyn?

[@a_little_demon]

Anne Boleyn's sister in law.

[@nazlsenay7312]

....

[@clivetunley1608]

Sorry it is Anne Boleyn not Jane.

[@karendegraaf1146]

Jane sister in law to Anne

[@MiriamaJohnson]

Love the tudors 😊 history is soo awesome

[@BugRod64]

Mary is my 14th great grandmother. The more I learn about this history
The more convinced how immorsii they were

[@JohnKirwan-zp5fl]

No known portrait of George Boleyn!
