While the thought of there being a curse surrounding the infamous King Tutankhamen is a little outdated (then again I believe they are using the word "curse" very loosely, more in the sense of a mystery), the evidence this crew believes they have found about his death and life is worth a some consideration. It is a reminder that we have no clue and that theories will constantly abound on Tut's death.
