We all know the story of Humpty Dumpty, the giant egg who fell off of a wall and couldn't be put back together afterwards.
The nursery rhyme character has been depicted across media as an egg, stretching all the way back to Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland sequel published in 1871.
But some might not have realised that there is no mention of Humpty being an egg whatsoever, making the tale a whole lot darker, writes The Mirror.
