Egypt: Mummy’s curse strikes again
Aym claims that what really happened in the Cairo Museum that day was that rather than getting their hands on the country’s ancient artefacts, the would-be robbers ended up being victims of the Mummy’s Curse.
Their mistake? Tearing the heads off two mummies and kicking them around like footballs. Terrence Aym quotes the Museum security guard al-Hamad Genadry, who told the Cairo press that “when he discovered the two goons they were jabbering and drooling-talking in gibberish to the two severed mummy heads”.
