THAT TIME THEY OPENED LORD BYRON’S COFFIN AND FOUND HE HAD A HUMONGOUS SCHLONG

There are similar photos and the same quote, along with an interesting anecdote about a row of detached male members preserved in jars at eye level, gently dancing together when their shelf was knocked.
Anyway... a nice read.
