Best Answer

King Harold; some say he got an arrow in the eye, others say he was trampled by aNorman knight and some say he was disemboweled, beheaded and killed by 4 knights. This is shown in the Bayeux Tapestry and above it in Latin it says "King Harold is killed". However, to this day nobody really knows how he died.
