Throughout the ages, many people have died because of improper diet, and during famine, there are even many people who die of disease caused by overeating after starvation.

But have you ever seen a king killed? There is really such a person, who inherited the throne at the age of 16, and his life was full of ups and downs, but he ended his life in a ridiculous way, which is the last monarch of Egypt, Farouk I.

In February 1920, Farouq I was born in the Hermitage in Alexandria, Egypt, his father was the Egyptian Sultan Huad I, the old king has been worried about the lack of heirs, so after the birth of Farouq I he was quite happy, the same day farouk was crowned as the son of the world, and when he was two years old, he officially became the crown prince of Egypt, was named "Prince said".

In order to make his son talented, the old king deliberately sent his son to England to study, but the latter did not seem to pay attention to his studies, but often gambled with the children of the nobility to hunt and recreation, and by 1936, with the death of Huad, Farouk officially took over the throne.

However, the many confusing operations of this king also officially began.

Under the Farouq royal family, with at least $100 million in assets and 7.5 acres of land, the young king had a bad habit of stealing.

In the 1920s, egyptian officials had to be careful of what was in their pockets when they entered the palace, because if they were not careful, the king was likely to take away their wallets, watches, pins, etc., even including women's necklaces and lipsticks, which Farouq certainly did not lack, he was only to satisfy the excitement of a moment.

During World War II, britain as Egypt's "protectorate" and suzerainty, the Winter Palace also ushered in the Visit of British Prime Minister Churchill, Churchill never expected that a pocket watch he carried with him was actually taken away by Farouq, this pocket watch has great personal significance for Churchill, he was furious after learning about it, directly through the British government to protest, forced by pressure, Farouq can only use "a misunderstanding" as an excuse, very reluctant to return the pocket watch, this is still the first thing he returned.

After this, in order to hone his pickpocketing skills, Farouq actually consulted the pickpockets in Egyptian prisons, and had a wealth of experience, when the time came to July 1944, the Death of The Iranian King Reza Khan, when the funeral procession passed through Egypt, Farouq, who went to mourn, took away several funerary items beside Reza Khan, including swords and martyrdom, and since then he has received international ridicule, known as "Cairo thief".

Farouq is also an amorous seed, as early as the British study period, farouq has been in contact with at least a dozen women before he is an adult, his wives and concubines are numerous, and since he married the noble lady Farida Favzira in 1938, there have been more than 100 mistresses, including actors, talented women and more than 10 dusty women, for which Farouq openly explained that people should not be bound in love.

In 1948, Farouq met a 16-year-old girl and immediately desperately asked to marry her, and the two eventually married in 1951, for which Farouq prepared a bridal dress with 20,000 diamonds.

Farouq's strength is also reflected in eating, he is a famous big stomach king, a breakfast can eat 12 eggs, lunch can eat 40 quail, a day can consume 30 bottles of beer, in addition to chocolate and a large number of high-calorie foods, for this reason Farouq's weight has risen sharply, to 300 pounds (136kg).

With such an extravagant life, it is not difficult to imagine Farouq's position in the country, and in 1952, Egyptian officers led by Nasser surrounded the Winter Palace and forced the king to abdicate.

In the end, Farouq could only issue an abdication edict on July 26, and in order to ensure preferential treatment in his later years, he exiled to Greece on the royal yacht Mahrusa, and Egypt abolished the monarchy.

As Farouq lost power, his former lovers left him, and even Queen Nariman went through the divorce with Farouk in 1954. The king gradually withdrew from the social scene.

Until March 18, 1965, the news came that Farouk died in San Camillo, Rome, Italy, at the age of 45, according to reports, Farouq's last lunch before his death, actually ate 12 large lobsters, 10 oysters, 8 fish, 5 bowls of fried rice, including cheese, jam, flatbread, beans, vegetables and fruits, as a result, after eating Farouq felt unwell, lay on the sofa and died shortly after being sent to the hospital, thus ending his hasty life.
