                          Dr. Taylor Marshal [says](https://open.spotify.com/episode/3tCTbiEyMnGhzKeo6O5fpg?si=f05d0479131d4783)  (about 25 minutes in) that a pope could be removed by the college of cardinals for reasons of insanity like powers that the 25th Amendment to the US. Constitution gives to the Vice President and Congress. 

Has this ever actually happened or has it ever been attempted in the history of the papacy?
