The Glass King | The French Monarch Who Believed He Was Made Of Glass

Imagine ruling one of the most powerful nations on Earth, yet living in constant terror that a single touch could shatter you into a million pieces.

In this video, we uncover the tragic and bizarre true story of King Charles VI of France, known to history as "The Mad" (Charles le Fou). While he began his reign as "The Beloved," a sudden and mysterious madness plunged the French monarchy into chaos.

His condition? A rare psychological disorder known as the Glass Delusion. Charles believed his body was made of fragile glass. He wrapped himself in thick blankets, inserted iron rods into his clothes to prevent breaking, and refused to let anyone—even his queen—touch him.
