Shaun takes us to Egypt this week to tell us about a supposed curse that struck upon the discovery and opening of the tomb of Tutankhamun by Howard Carter in the early 1920's. The curse was reportedly etched on the walls of the tombs and read 'Death comes on swift wings for those would disturb the Pharaohs'. In all at least eight people and one canary would die as a result of this supposed curse, making worldwide news.
