The Tenth English Immortal

Recommended Posts

You've surely seen the video floating around the internet, maybe under its formal name "A Heap of Trouble", or perhaps under its more technically accurate folk name "Nine Naked Men". But there is a Taoist background that is often neglected! :P This is a re-telling of the story of the Tenth English Immortal. It also clears up why he is classically depicted wearing that odd hat. :)

Edit: So I've been told that technically they are the ten British immortals, not English. Being the stereotypically oblivious American that I am, I hadn't realized. Who knew? :)
