.."The Vatican's chamberlain, now Cardinal Eduardo Martinez Somalo of Spain, verifies the papal death -- which in the past was done by striking the pope's forehead with a silver hammer. The chamberlain, or camerlengo, then calls out to the pope three times by his baptismal name. When the pope does not respond, the camerlengo then announces "the pope is dead."

oOo:

also anyone fill me in why hes named john paul II his real name is Karol Jozef Wojtyla

do they always take the name john paul? So the next guy will be john paul III
