Description
Last summer I was in London for the second time (first time was back in 2000, so it was interesting to much and yet so little a city can change in 6 years) and while I don't have the time nor the energy to share all the pictures (at least a Gigabyte of photos) and stuff with you, I just had to share this with you. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the old armour of Henry VIII. Yes, the king who's remembered mainly for killing wives left to right and having a complex about his crotch. Come on, don't pretend that you haven't noticed it yet on the armour. It's so creepy that it's as if it follows you around the room. While I don't think Henry actually went into battle himself, my theory is that this suit was designed to not only boost his ego but also make the enemy so embarassed and freaked out that no one would dare go near him. Freud would have had a field-day with this guy.
