3:50 Ahh, the classic pommel throw! The ultimate weapon of medieval times, and the best way to end your opponent rightly! Well played Crash Course, well played...
9:22 in most Arthurian legends the sword Arthur pulled from the stone was NOT Excalibur, that was given to him by the Lady of Lake well after the sword was pulled from the stone.
This episode is great. The comedy is really well done, and the stories are interesting. The stories in lots of the other episodes are interesting too, but I really like the script and delivery for this one.
"Brave Sir Robin ran away, (No!) Bravely ran away, away. (I didn't) When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled. (No!) Yes Brave Sir Robin turned about, (I didn't) and gallantly he chickened out Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. (I never did) Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin (I never!)" Did I miss this part of the story?
So? Join them or stay out of the way. Easy, simple. Or do you take pride and derive pleasure from looking down at others because of their different preferences? In which case, stay and rejoice.

The mysticism around the "Holy Grail" reminds me of Gilgamesh's quest for immortality and so meeting Utnapishtim. Just like in the Gilgamesh epic, there is an absence of understanding of the original story. It is the celebration in drinking the wine symbolizing his blood on the appointed day that gives you life not the cup itself. Also, it isn't called communion but Passover as it is the reality of the old covenant Passover. They wouldn't know this considering the actual regulation had been abolished and many Christians had to keep it in secret. As time goes on people distort these things for their own opinion but the scriptures on this hadn't changed.
'Legend of England'? Noo! Arthur is a Welsh hero and legends about him and his companions primarily come from the British tradition, culture and language - it's so sad when people forget this :(
OMG OMG OMG, I didn't know until you guys just posted the video but this is my FAVORITE Mythological story and I'm amped you guys did an episode on it!
Correct me if I'm wrong but Perceval seems to have a lot of blame placed on him for unjustified reasons- he only left his mother because he wanted to become a knight (which considering what happened to his siblings and being kept in ignorance for years, justifies his curiosity) , he was blamed for the death of the king by not asking about a grail he never heard of before then, his cousin he never knew existed imposed a quest on him which he happily accepted, and after 5 years of adventuring a hermit tells him that it is ultimately his fault. Poor guy. Great Video, CrashCourse.
Perceval learns a lesson about the _true_ meaning of...Good Friday? Okay, that's kinda hilarious. From now on, I'm imagining medieval Europe as having old-timey versions of those saccharine Christmas specials for every holiday in the Christian calendar.
Bravely bold Sir Robin, rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, o Brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways. Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin! He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, Or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken. To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away, And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin! His head smashed in and his heart cut out, And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged, And his nostrils ripped and his bottom burned off, And his penis--
Brave Sir Robin ran away.Bravely ran away away. When danger reared its ugly head, He bravely turned his tail and fled.Yes Brave Sir Robin turned about. And gallantly he chickened out Bravely taking to his feet. He beat a very brave retrat.Bravest of the brave Sir Robin
Rubbish! Where are the Shrubberys? Where are the Killer Rabbits? Where is Tim and the Anarcho-syndicalist autonomous collective with Reg the peasant? It just isn't a grail quest without them!
De Havilland Vampire Yeah! Where is the French Taunting, the Black knight, Castle Antrax, The Knights who say Ni, The 3 headed man. Help help! They're being repressed.
5:47 It was but expected that the commandment to stay quiet wasn't going to be applicable everywhere and in all cases. I feel that irrespective of where we come from, the lack of generality in how we ought to respond to situations has been a recurring theme in our stories.
The Einzbern family unknowingly sabotage the grail since they summoned Angra Manyu during the 3rd grail war in original Fate. (Zero>Stay Night) (however that never happened in apocrypha because they summoned shirou amakusa instead)
Nice summary on an anthology of legends all swished around in a cup. If you ever get the chance, then watch the film Excalibur produced by John Boorman. Best wedding scene ever.
The one I would like to learn about is Bort 9:12. Why are we not talking about Bort? Who is Bort? Also, now I understand why Bort is more popular than Bart
I like how Abrahamic religions are perceived as factually correct, whereas Slavic and Germanic pagan religions are considered to be some fairy tales despite the fact that the Abrahamic religions stole so many "ideas" from them.
Who lives in that castle? No one. Then, who is your Lord? we don't have a Lord. what? We are anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take turn being the executive on a weekly basis. Every executive order must be approve by the people in a bi-weekly meeting. Simple majority in case of purely domestic matter, but 2/3 majority in case of external matters. BE QUIET! I AM YOUR KING

Did you really miss the chance at saying, "Percival wasn't the sharpest lance of the lot"! Really!?
Thank you. I thought it was coming, but nope.
Your profile pic was my response to your Joke 😑😁

One can actually use that in the Worms videogame series... ;D
Fun fact: depending on when in history you ask, a "grail" is either a cup, a bowl, a plate, or a rock.
Pfhorrest A rock?
An incandescent rock.
That's not false.
Darcy: a flat rock makes a primitive plate; a curved plate makes shallow bowl; a tall, narrow bowl makes a cup.
It means they are all homeomorphic
The question that they should have ask
"African swallow or European swallow"
A swallow can't carry a coconut anyways.
Well, as soon as I get head from one of them (and in general), I'll let you know.
*_'TIS BUT A SCRATCH!_*

Well that explains Saber's insatiable appetite.

I thought this was just a typical hungry anime character trope. Turns out this has actual basis in mythology

NI!
Ecky ecky ecky patow zoop boing
NO!!! NOT THE KNIGHTS WHO SAY NI!!!!
The Knights Who Say NI demand.... A SACRIFICE!
'It!'
We need... a shrubery!
8:46- *Sir Lances a lot of woman*
I'll see myself out now. And yes, this is an FGO reference.
The real holy grail was the friends we made along the way
You forgot the part where Zoot alights the grail-shaped beacon. Wicked, naughty Zoot!
Best series on Crash Course. Keep 'em coming.
Ah yes, all the familiar knights of the round table. Lancelot, Percival, Gawain, Galahad and.... *Bort?*
Let's ask Saber about this

I'm so glad someone else saw it!

"and there is alot of incest"

I was waiting for my monty python reference and have been satisfied
Ethan Salinas near the beginning, tote has coconuts
I love Arthurian myths and legens, especially the quest for the Holy Grail!
8:34 Mash Kyrielight
Watch out, the Fate nerds are coming!
Last week Crash Crouse had made Gilgamesh, many nerd responded "zashu"
So? Join them or stay out of the way. Easy, simple.
Or do you take pride and derive pleasure from looking down at others because of their different preferences?
In which case, stay and rejoice.
Here is a simple question. Do you like to play go?
I'm a Fate fan.
Ah, Ancient Mythology; making incest cool before Game of Thrones did!
Maradukh GoT is Arthurian fanfic, with the serial numbers filed off.
The royal houses of York and Lancaster would like a word about the origins of GoT :P
Maradukh , I know right!
The graphics in this one episode are particularly good!! Would be very nice to have an RPG game made like this!

it's only a model
I'm in Spamalot right now!!
The sword that Arthur pulls from the stone is called Caliburnus. Excalibur is the sword given him by the Lady of the Lake.
First no one cares, but want to thank crash course for perhaps the best and definitely the most useful channel on youtube!!
Mr Random Entertainment agreed
Yep
3:44 The glorious pommel throw!
Stephan Barbarian A pommel to end him rightly
My friend told me to never trust stairs...
As they're usually up to something.
Even when they're not, they'll always let you down.
You took great steps to make that pun...
This is on a whole other level.
SPAM
Don't search what stairs are in Dutch, it's a trap!
Just wanted to say these have been so good and thank you for making them!!!
This 13-minute video felt like it was five.
Good job as always.

Do an episode on King Arthur
By far my favorite CC of all!
"Percy takes this to heart, and you should too. It's gonna come back and bite him."
Thanks for the… advice?

Timothy McLean I can totally believe that was a thing.
One of the best Crash Course series.
What about Sir Robin: The not quite as brave as Sir Lancelot?
DoctorGumby I’m more interesting in Sir Not Appearing in this Film.
Bravely bold Sir Robin, rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, o Brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways. Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin! He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, Or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken. To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away, And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin! His head smashed in and his heart cut out, And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged, And his nostrils ripped and his bottom burned off, And his penis--
Brave Sir Robin ran away.Bravely ran away away. When danger reared its ugly head, He bravely turned his tail and fled.Yes Brave Sir Robin turned about. And gallantly he chickened out Bravely taking to his feet. He beat a very brave retrat.Bravest of the brave Sir Robin
Packing it in and packing it up And sneaking away and buggering up And chickening out and pissing about Yes, bravely he is throwing in the sponge.
Laura Corum: thanks for the complete lyrics
My favorite lesson I've learned in life is that one MUST be the hero of one's own journey. Be your own hero.
Thoth as Tim the Enchanter makes me happy.
tis but a scratch 5:34
when do we see the violence inherent in the system ?

4:25 "Talk less." *What?* "Smile more." *Heh* "Don't let me know what your against or what your for."
Your content is just insanely good. thank you.
This new learning amazes me, Sir Bedemir. Explain again how sheeps' bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes.
My daughter was asking about the Grail stories last week. awesome episode
Arthurian Legend time? I will be thoroughly wroth if there is not mention of Sir Gawain at some point.
:(
“Danger...danger...danger” xD Mike is the best!!
Grail... Grail never changes.
Percy's old wise man quote basically is "talk less, smile more." I'm living for it.
5:47 It was but expected that the commandment to stay quiet wasn't going to be applicable everywhere and in all cases.

"The grail, the ultimate wish granting devic-"
Plottwist: Angra corrupted the Grail
Hol' up!!!!
Sorry about that..
The Einzbern family unknowingly sabotage the grail since they summoned Angra Manyu during the 3rd grail war in original Fate. (Zero>Stay Night) (however that never happened in apocrypha because they summoned shirou amakusa instead)
Plott twist: You find 6 versions of King Arthur.
3:53 Wait a minute, that's the illustration from the "end him rightly" text! Throw that pommel, Mr. Knight!
So good lol.

0:47 good there was a monty python reference. id be ashamed of you guys if you didnt make one
You tell the story well. Thank you
Thank you for the Monty python reference. I greatly appreciate it 😂
I hope you guys do more king Arthurian legends
I love the Monty Python reference in the intro.
Just found this channel and this series and I love it so much subscribing for sure
Ha. Because Monty Python. Thanks Thoth, you are one of my favorite characters. 😊
Euphonic style. Thank you.
The arthurian legend of the "On en a gros !" guy
So easy seeing Percival not being the sharpest after Kaamelot :D
Sirop!
Hello CrashCourse, awesome videos! Just letting you know the playlist for this course only has up to #27 if you see this
Nice summary on an anthology of legends all swished around in a cup. If you ever get the chance, then watch the film Excalibur produced by John Boorman. Best wedding scene ever.
The only version of the Parsifal story I've ever heard he _does_ ultimately ask the Fisher King "What ails you?" Interesting difference.
3:44 Ends it rightly !
Instead of saying "he is not the sharpest lance in the armory" he should have said "he is not the sharpest lance in the lot."
What...is his favorite color?
You're everywher
Woke up this morning
From the strangest dream
I was in the biggest army
The world had ever seen...
Like for the Monty Python reference 😂 yaaasss!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
FINALLY I've been so confused on this for so long. Humanities is hard
The lesson of Galahad: The best employees and minions are those who are dead inside, and you all should strive for that.
We already have one!
These two really had great adventures...
"The Seat of Danger?" I was waiting for the "Siege Perilous" and I get "The Seat of Danger?"
Hi from Evansville, IN!

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
I'm in the Monty Python musical right now and that's my line!!
I have actually seen The Grail, about 10 ago, in San Juan de la Peña, Aragon, Spain.
