"Is it like a little ceremonial tap or are they caving his skull in?! "
I know this whole post is touching on jest, but, for those that aren’t sure, yes, it’s a ceremonial tap,- ‘just to check’. It is an official role of the Camerlengo. The personal aide to the pope. Given that Benedict isn’t actually ‘the’ pope, there was a bit of confusion as to the role of the camerlengo at this point, and what the currnet Pope would actually do.
Usually, the pope carries on in role until death, so, for last 800 years there’s not been a living actual pope to confirm the death of a pope |

"I used to hit my mate on the head with my knob to wake him up on a lad’s holidays 
Then did it "accidentally" slip into his mouth ?
And then his anus
Then back to his mouth."
To clarify I did Tbag him to wake him up as well.
To clarify even further, I Tbagged my mate and not the pope  |

It was a ritual introduced to the Vatican centuries ago by the Irish Catholics!
Back in the 13th Century there was a Pope who had an Irish Cardinal Murphy as his personal assistant. When the Pope died, Murphy started this historic ritual by hammering the Pope on the head three times. The other Cardinals were shocked, gathered round and demanded that he should explain his actions. “Oh that’s simple” he calmly replied as he lay down the hammer, “to be sure, to be sure, to be sure”!  |

I'm.sorry, but this is a man who excommunicated a 9-year old for having an abortion, which she needed as the baby was her stepfather's. The stepfather in question was not excommunicated.
I'd personally be in favour of ditching the ceremonial tiny hammer tiny-tapping and having a good swing with a sledgehammer. |

"Im thinking there must be more scientific ways nowadays to check. "
The Catholic Church hasn't really gone in for much of the science stuff since all that trouble with Galileo. |

I did think they're probably not keen on the old science |

"I like that in his home country of Germany they called him Papa Razzi.  "
Lots of non-catholics who knew him before he became Pope, refer to him as Joey Ratz. Sounds like he's about to getting whacked by the Mob! |

The full film is here.
