Before we get to that and why crocodiles in moats are probably not the best idea in the world, or at least not a very efficient use of resources if your concern was really defence of a fortress, we should address the fact that the common image most people have in their heads of a moat isn’t exactly representative of what historical moats usually looked like.

This video is now re-energized since the 🍊🍄's suggestion last week...
I actually think the moats around castles near ancient Egypt had crocs
What about lasers on shark heads!? Surely THAT happened!?
Aspect Science actually historians now believe that while sharks and lasers may have been used separately, no one actually combined the two. Someone did attach lasers to dinosaurs, but the dinos kept blinding each other.
PrincessSixThirteen ah thanks for the update! We’ve been a bit useless in keeping up with archeololazergy recently we’re ashamed to admit!
Were the dinosaurs attempting to turn the lasers off but their teeny tiny arms just weren’t up to the task?
Well, the sharks are endangered and all we could get was feisty sea bass.
I hope this is a reference to Austin powers
Is this a reference to a Portal animation? Meet the cores is what I think it was called.
I only stare at Simon's head instead of all the visuals in the video
It's fascinatingly well proportioned
I think he's a bit late for Hims
Simon is just as dashing the way he is. No need for Hims lmao
Haha, you're not wrong!
The start was both great and sad "lose your hair like me" :'(
I wounder what he'd look like shaved.
In ancient Egypt, most fortresses were located near natural canals or had artificial moats dug around them. These moats were often flooded by the annual inundation. At those times, crocodiles would move in and occupy the moat. This wasn't intentional--just of fact of life in ancient Egypt. Crocodiles are surprisingly mobile and will often travel up to a kilometer inland looking for ponds or other bodies of water to establish their own territories. I have seen crocodiles in Egypt near the Sudan border turn up in some surprising places, e.g., shallow decorative lily ponds at resorts.

Could you consider doing a video about how dragons came to become the visual creatures that they are, such as the history of dragons in art?
The tower of London used to house the royal menagerie which included a polar bear.
The process of tunnelling under fortifications is called undermining.
I think Looney Tunes can be blamed for the whole crocodile in the moat thing. Oh, and Disney.
EddyGurge Also Touche Turtle , a Hanna-Barbera cartoon.
It's been around long before that, from the old silent movie adventures, and old paperback thrillers.
Yea, and ruining Star Wars.
Definitely
Why aren't hairless cats referred to as furless cats instead?
Bel Ban the breeds name is the sphinx named after the egyptian monument
They just call them hairless cause they are
Patriotic Protagonist i know they are named sphinx cats, that's why i said "referred to". They have fur, not hair. They are furless.
Bel Ban i guess its just easier to say
Patriotic Protagonist im going to start calling bald people furless. :p
Bel Ban ooof
I thought when he said 'bear moat' that he said 'bare moat' as in nothing in it. But bear moats are much more fun.
MowgliNHazel I thought he said "bear moat" in the beginning, then I saw your comment only to realize he did mean "bear moat" during the video after all! I'm not a native speaker (as you might guess from my name) btw.
Yeah. Bear moat with a picture of bears. I can see the confusion
He was talking about bear moats (with bears) in the video.
that makes no sense.
MowgliNHazel Some bare moats are full of hippies.
Why do grades skip E?
A B C D F
When I was in elementary school,
achievements were rated as
U = unsatisfactory
S = satisfactory
E = excellent
Does that provide a clue?
A good question!
F stands for Fail, and the rest are just in order. E is probably just one too many; in some places, D is also skipped for much the same reason.
Some schools don't skip E, but nowadays most do.
Originally, an E was a failing grade that could be resolved in summer school, whereas an F was an even lower grade requiring a full repeat of that respective class (course/subject) the following school year. Both were failing grades, but with different severities in how to resolve them.
I had been told it was because some students might think E stood for "Effort/Excellent" so when grading with ABC scale, the teachers skipped E. I think I teacher told me this when someone in my class asked but I can't remember.
If I had a moat I would put a bunch of snarky teenage girls with cell phones that don’t work in it... or a dragon. Same danger.
Todd Dougherty Lol! That's truly sadistic!
But that moat is for a prison, right? Surely you wouldn't want to live anywhere near it, right?
Problem is one is real and one is fantasy... 🤔
The banshee like shrieking would be insufferable. A dragon is much more practical for a castle abode
That's just cruel and unusual punishment. You are a horrible person lol
The moat in front of the castle in Walt Disney World probably has contained alligators. I have seen videos of a removal of one at the nearby Splash Mountain.
It's actually still surrounded by crocs.
Because it's in Florida.
Randall Disney World sucks fat nut sacks I hate it with a passion
Dj Hans Overlander, because it's in Florida, or not as good as Disneyland, or just a general dislike of Disney?
If you hate something passionately, not saying why, leaves the story half untold.
I'm pretty sure the Fort at Saint Augustine, Florida has had alligators in it's moat as well.
Randall all of the above
I put the black beast of Arrrggghhh and the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog in my moat
A holy hand grenade takes care of half of those in one swoop.
Why do you think I put them both down there?
How do you keep them from killing each other?
The rabbit guards the beast. I don't want to be eaten by that thing!
Stellarium Celestia Be sure to keep the animator nice and healthy, lest your black beast disappears into thin air.
Paranoid castle architect was like "we're gonna need a bigger moat!" o.O
Simon was very fortunate to have probably the most perfect bald head I've ever seen. He could be a modern lex luthor
Brambles, unlike a lot of thorny plants, have curved hook-like thorns. And as anyone whose tried to run through british woodland can attest, they tangle like barbed wire and can (when very large) rip through thin leather.
Mixed in with stinging nettles they're very upleasent even when not attacking a castle.
Here in Israel archaeologists uncovered a swimming pool below Herodian, a fortress of King Herod. They noted that the swimming pool had a side pool with a door in it that could be opened to connect to the larger pool. There is a legend that King Herod used to invite his enemies over for a swim and when they were inside the pool he would open the side pool in which crocodiles were kept. Soldiers would be on the sides of the larger pool daring the occupants of the pool to leave. So they either died by crocodile or by spear. Of course we don't know if this is true but your video reminded me of this. This pool is on most tours of the Herodian complex.
Since alligators are an American species, Herods pool probably held crocodiles. There is also a tradition that the emperor Caligula had pools in his palace at Naples stocked with eels in which prisoners would be thrown so that he could watch them being torn slowly to bits.
Sounds like something the Chamber of Commerce made up to tell the tourists.
In a thematically related piece of architecture, wasn't there a sort of swimming pool filled with man-eating eels built by some sadistic romans?
sarah kuhr that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard there are no alligators anywhere near Israel he probably used sharks with laser beams on their heads
Emmit Stewart China has alligators too
Could you do one on the fall of the Babylonian capital? .... The Persians achieved an ancient engineering feat of draining the surrounding network of moats, before they went across and captured the city.
They didn't like what they saw, so- they changed channels
@@fatboitino2 much appreciated
"The castle's grizzliest residents." 😂 Well played, TIFO.
I mean, what if your fortress is in Florida or Brazil? Not so silly now, is it?
As a pool guy with animal control on my phone for this exact reason. I agree. In FL also
But does it have MACHICOLATIONS?
Oh, sorry wrong channel.
I got that reference...
But what about dragons?
Haha.... nice reference
Snapping turtles would work🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
Not enough likes. They dont know they get 30+ pounds and can cut through sheet steel.
So, piranha filled moats are most likely a no go as well then? Though a bear moat is pretty cool.
Thanks for the video *TIFO* crew and Simon.
*EDIT: To all the people telling me piranha aren't dangerous, haven't you seen the movies folks? Hollywood wouldn't lie for God's sake.* ;)
Dsdcain piranhas are scavengers any rarely attacking live people.
piranhas don't attack people you stupid
riskinhos Are you sure? I saw them in a movie attacking people like crazy.
Yeah, it's a very common misconception that Piranhas will just eat any living thing that comes in water near them. Iirc, there's a video about it on this channel.

I’m surprised there was no mention of Ancient Egypt in the city of Krokodopolis where crocodiles where worshipped (Sobek) and could often be found swimming throughout the channels carved inside the city.

"Get your comprehensive hair kit for just $5"... How Ironic!
The moat certain restricted the movement of the enemy outside the castle, so they couldn't just use siege towers or as stated try to dig underneath the castle itself. If anything it meant that the gatehouse was the only point of entry and some ways it was more terrifying than a giant aquatic reptile swimming around the moat. The gatehouse once closed was difficult to get past, more so if you were the ones caught in it, whereupon you would be trapped by the heavy doors and above you people would be dropping anything from rocks to hot oil on you once you got stuck there. With the moat the gatehouse was the only point of entry for an attacking army; examples of engineering from that time period.
I put lava in my moats

Tipu sultan in india had his fort surrounded by a moat full of crocodiles.
Well thanks for killing that for 12 year old me
Next thing hes going to tell us quick sand isn't a thing.
London's original zoo started out as a collection of exotic animals given to various monarchs over the years. It was housed in the Tower of London, developing primarily in the now long demolished gate house, next to the moat on the west side
No, it’s a completely ridiculous rumor. They used alligators.
I mean... good video, but your understanding of moats impacting siege weaponry is flawed. Real life wasn't a video game - mangonels and trebuchets were used for killing soldiers and enemy siege weaponry not knocking down walls. As for rams these were always used on gates not walls (moats usually didnt impede them unless by drawbridge which wasn't very common for most of he medieval era.)
Tunneling while an issue wasnt the man problem. Moats provded protection specifically from ladders and siege towers. (Again not ranged siege weaponry)
Trebuchets are, in fact, the superior siege weapon.
Short of big cannons, absolutely.
And the best moat fillings are spikes.
Bonus fact: the Byzantines would protect their military camps by digging ditches around them and filling them with caltrops (since they often operated in areas without timber needed to set up a stockade like the western Roman Empire).
This meant you could either look down to watch your step (in the dark) or look up to watch for spears, arrows, etc and just hope you didn't step on a barbed metal spike.
DynamicWorlds exactly. Siege weapons in general are cumbersome. Trebuchets generally had he advantage of on site construction - easing logistics. Though it would have taken a trebuchet made of steel with cranes to bring down the walls of Constantinople. The ottomans used massive artillery which eventually bit them because 100s of oxen and men for literally one great bombarde does not make for a quick retreat. Still, the Christian Capitol fell to a bunch of savages and has yet to be returned. Forts today are underground. Check out US NORAD base. Even several megaton nuclear warheads wouldn't bring it down. Trap the men inside maybe, but they would live for months still able to issue commands....not to mention if command were somehow lost from all command checks the submarine commanders would take control (there's a system in place) and obliterate the enemy in a "counter value" second strike. The Information Age means you literally have to destroy every base, every silo, every sub, and every aircraft to prevent retaliation. Or, if you're say Russia, you'd have to bring the US strike ability well below 400 megatons.
Perfect timing since it was just released that our brilliant president had an interest in a moat with crocodiles/alligators around the border. Ahhhh yes our president is a senile lunatic.
UA-cam recommended this after watching news on Trump wanting an alligator-filled moat border and a few Shadiversity videos.
sounds perfectly reasonable to me
Im totally adding a moat to my castle.
I always just assumed the point of moats was to establish an unstable plot of land around the base of the castle to make it more difficult for enemies to set up a latter to climb the wall.

Well it was a "if you don't want to end up loosing your hair like me" advertisement
Donovan Beres lovely heard tho
DynamicWorlds no it’s just a company he’s getting paid to mention...
Donovan Beres think we both missed what each other origionally meant, but yes, it's just a sponsorship ad.
Got a real strong craving to play Stronghold: Crusader after watching this.
I feel I must point out ... Fort Pulaski National Monument, near Savannah, Georgia, (okay, it's not a castle per se, but bear with me) is (A) built on marshy Cockspur Island, and (B) has a moat which is connected with the ocean. So, alligators are not uncommon in the moat, and I've seen them more than once. One of the park rangers told me they've seen small sharks in there, but I'm not a witness, so I can't swear to that. Alligators, though ... yes. Again, I've seen them.
On the other hand, I'd be very surprised to see such a thing in a European or UK castle. Too far north.
Proud moat owners))) just cracks me up.
Although I totally get it, in those days a decent moat was a thing to boast about.
Should do a video on where the phrase the grass is always greener on the other side originated from. Love your vids.

Jon Schaumann have you ever raised cattle? Or any livestock I bet... um... the animals ALWAYS push though the fence to get the grass on the other side...

I found this out today

Immediately next on my random playlist: Biographics video on Donald Trump.
This is the stuff schools need to teach
Random Fish Knight: We should build a moat!
Patrick Starr: We should take Bikini Bottom & move it somewhere else!
i have never heard of crocodiles in moats
I had figured the castle’s waste drained into the mote and it was like an open septic tank. (would make a good deterrent)
Could you do one on who started the movie/cartoon trend of showing huge castles on a mountain accessible via only a narrow ridge as being haunted? That image is so common and iconic, yet most castles are not like that . So, which castle is the prototype for this and which painting or movie started the idea?
Castle Bran. Neuschwanstein. Alcazar of Segovia. Dunluce Castle. Burg Hohenwerfen. Peñafiel Castle.
And far too many more to list.
Actually, it didn't start with any painting or movie. The image arose out of the Gothic Novels of the nineteenth century.
I'd figured that it was some gothic novel but, which one? It wasn't Frankenstein, the novel, which doesn't mention the castle.
However, compare the real castle Frankenstein:
ichef.bbci.co.uk/wwfeatures/wm/live/1600_900/images/live/p0/4c/jl/p04cjl0t.jpg
to the super iconic movie version:
vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/mary-shelley/images/1/17/Frankcastle.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20160304051016
Maybe The Castle Of Otranto? I've never read it, so I don't know the description of the castle. In any case, novelist are constantly stealing concepts from each other, so it's hard to find where any particular trope originated, especially now that 99% of that genre is out of print.
I think there were a large number of castles built to overlook and tax river traffic in Europe in the medieval era, making that cartoonish view of a castle on a precipice a common one, as seen from a boat on the river below.
You know I don't know about Europe but During the time of Mughal era in India (Mughal India). Mughal Emperors put crocs and alligator into these water moats which was directly connected to chambal river.After the water moat comes the dense forest moat which contained bears and then after the forest moat another moat comes which consisted large no of Mughal soldiers with Cannons.There were lot of castles like that in india and one of the of the most famous fort was The Agra fort.
2:18 Put on a hundred pounds of full plate and try swimming across a moat in water over your head. Tell me if you still feel the same way.
That's not quite true. Apparently having a water filled moat is superior because it makes undermining the moat a lot more difficult has the tunnels would fill up with water. This was the problem with building underground systems in cities which was only really solved when the London underground system was made.
Were there even castles in any areas that had climates that crocodiles could survive in? That factor alone seems to make it highly unlikely.
Emmit Stewart
Feed the crocodiles peasants... it's not like they actually have to eat that much food, being cold blooded and all. But that also makes them pretty poor defensive tools as they'd only take a couple Soldiers and be full and leave the rest alone.
Not just peasants, but they could eat the lord too.
Surrounding your home with unchained, man-eating wild beasts just isn't a good idea.
Alex Noa No, don't feed peasants to the crocs. Feed them the rich instead.
terry waller The various canals in Florida are essentially alligator filled moats. Another likely example is any moat surrounding a structure on the banks of the Nile. In either place little or no effort to attract or maintain the beasts, just putting the moat where they prefer to be anyway.
Haven't watched it all yet so this may be addressed later but as note: while dangerous animals in a moat probably wont get you much against an attacking army, they'd probably be much more effective at deterring spies and thieves and other folks that might try to sneak in.
You guys are the only people i dont skip ads on
This whole moat full of crocs is only half the story. I propose a moat along the southern boarder of Georgia and Alabama full of gators so we can understand the differences and similarities between gator moats and croc moats. The research should only take a few hundred years or so, sea level rise not withstanding. I expect interesting and celebrated results.
Only Simon can make an ad feel entertaining and educational
PLUS hims sounds great!
What about a moat filled with alligators, no water, just alligators.
Better yet, alligators in a perpetual state of craving a cigarette.
I think that in The Once and Future King, there is reference to a moat stocked with pike fish. That would make sense, since Pike are huge fish with lots of sharp teeth, which would discourage swimmers as well as providing an excellent food source. The moat was also stocked with smaller fish, which provided a cheap source of food for the pike.
Pike wouldn't deter any smart person. They don't attack people, like at all. Probably has happened a few times over the centuries, but they are neither aggressive enough or large enough to be any kind of threat.
@@userequaltoNull The book was a children's fiction and not historically accurate at all. For instance, in the book, Arthur was a Norman ruler, when historically he is believed to have been a Celtic leader fighting against the Saxon invasion. Pike in the moat would probably have been there as a food source, if there had actually been any. And I believe that no fifth century castle would have had a moat around it.

The best show on UA-cam
ah simon, if you have a water filled moat the point is to let it become putrid. This can be helped along by using the moat as a sewer/cesspool. No one except the stupid or glory hungry want to the first man over the top but no one want to be the first to dive into a pool of human effluvia.
Never bought the idea of crocodile-filled moats. Being cold blooded, how would crocs survive the out-of-doors in the winter?
AI4QT not to mention how fucking dangerous it would be all the time when you're not under siege.
More likely to get eaten walking out your front door early in the morning than the crocs being the deciding factor in an attempt to breach your castle.
What crocs don't survive being outside in the winter?? Are you supposing that every crocodile has a heated winter home somewhere that they stay in until spring? Maybe I'm just misunderstanding what u meant.
Mr Emann They become docile when outside temps are cold. So how would crocs provide any type of defense ????
AI4QT well the logical answer would be, and prob why the myth was perpetuated is that they can kill and eat pretty much any animal that ventures in or near their habitat with efficiency. Thus instilling fear and effectively dissuading would be attackers.
Mr Emann Yes. It's called Florida.
I'm glad you mentioned that native Americans used moats too. I've been studying these recent discoveries of native Americans lately and it's super interesting
Short story: no.
They didn't use alligators in their moats. Everybody knows that had sharks with lasers on their heads!

Hi Simon Whistler,
This is a pretty exciting video I have to say, and since you guys are informative and well-detailed, I have a question I want to ask. Can you talk about a disorder that is known as PANDAS (Pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with streptococcal infections) and why is it so controversial?
Thank you for your time reading this comment and pleases let me know what you think.
Dude, a moat full of bears is way more terrifying than a moat full of crocodiles.
I remember in “The Sword in the Stone there was a scene when Merlin had Arthur in the moat and they were being chased by what looked like a crocodile to young me. Years later I found out it was an alligator gar.
3:02 Those digging soldiers are called "Sappers"- and they had *_balls of f'ing steel!_* Just imagine it...imagine digging under a wall that weighed _hundreds, or thousands of tons_ that was having massive boulders catapulted at it at same time you were in a tight, cramped tunnel, every single hit causing the ground to shake and mud to fall from the ceiling, your support beams creaking and shifting...and carrying on regardless, knowing full well that you could be literally digging your own grave! Same goes for the soldiers in the trenches in WW1. ✌️ Rest in Peace you brave men and women
4:40 I used to be a direct assault at castle walls like you, but then I took a moat to the knee.
Well - several years ago, I was involved in a space project that was in discussions with the proposed spaceport in Angleton, Texas, south of Houston. Part of the security for the spaceport would have been an alligator-filled ditch (you could call it a moat). It wasn’t that we thought the alligators were necessary, but the proposed site was infested with alligators, and we couldn’t think of any practical way to get rid of them. So - it almost happened.

You need to do a video on male pattern baldness. Sort of fascinating that it's so specific to the scalp. I'm pretty sure too that while facial hair doesn't thin much with age, body and pubic hair does.
Sorry guy, body and pubic hair stays just as thick as ever
I anecdotally disagree at the age of 56.

Continuity error: His lapel mic switched sides mid-episode.
A bear is definitely powerful creature to have as a defense! So I went to El Moro Castile and Castle in Puerto Rico built by the Spanish, it fairly modern as far as castles go. But it has an empty moat at the front gate. There are Iguanas roaming around, but I could definitely see a crocodile getting in there.
Im sorry but the concept of a moat full of crocodiles makes me laugh. I cant stop laughing trying to imagine such a thing. I mean seriously? BEARS oh my thats a new one. Like you say id be worried about the back lash of having such "guardians" on your own assets. Gobbling up peasants, bears smashing through huts and what not...This is where it becomes funny 'King "Wha where is every one?" 'Lord "The bears and crocodiles are loose sire!! ROFLOL
Aurora Jones i laughed out loud just seeing the thumbnail, i thought this was a joke 😂
If you made the moat walls steep enough that they can’t get out it makes sense aside from the upkeep.

yea

I hate to say anything negative because I love this channel, but... I have hearing issues and the background music makes it really hard for me to understand what Simon is saying. I usually treat this channel like a podcast, doing other things while I listen, but I found myself having to sit down and watch his face to make out the words. I'd sit still for subtitles if they helped but they're really bad and of little help. Can we maybe just... reconsider the music? Please? =\
We're very soon coming out with a pure podcast compilation version of these with no background music you might be interested in. :-) Stay tuned!
Awesome! That would be so helpful. Thank you so much!
