Loki the mischief-maker, writhes in Thor’s iron grip. The previous night, he’d snuck up on Thor’s wife and shorn off her beautiful hair. To fix what he’d done, Loki rushes to the dwarves and tricks them into making gifts for the gods. Wanting to best their smith rivals, the dwarves make a set of golden treasures, including a hammer called Mjolnir. Scott A. Mellor traces the legend of Thor’s hammer.
Lesson by Scott A. Mellor, directed by Remus and Kiki.

Cuz he didn’t make them, plus a man has to keep his word.
His children are the cause of Ragnarok.
This prank was only but one of many annoying and dangerous pranks he made . So he deserved it

Sonic: Me likey
I don't understand why it multiplies and for what purpose that was, the gift is beautiful i give them that but i just don't understand that one
NOOO NOT MY ENEMY
The reason why Brokk and Eitri wanted Loki's head:
Because they wanted to know how his brain worked to come up with his infamous schemes, what makes him tick . Like scientists wanting to study the brain of a sociopath
Fascinating
yes probably, just like how the psychologists at captain Holt's party wanted to study Gina when they met her. (this is from B99)
Funny the same happened to Einstein. When he died scientist wanted to freeze his brain so they can study the mind of a genius.
Like his schemes to take over earth and get thanos the space stone

I know i know just clarifying
Ragnarok'N'Roll
I am going to destroy this man's hammer.
Odins spear also had the ability to never miss its target, which was helpful for odin because he only had one eye.
And Mjollnir had another, maybe two other abilites. The hammer could grow and shrink its size, so much so that Thor could hide it in his shirt. And the hammer would instantly kill anything it was used againts. But this could also be explained by Thors ridicoulous strength. His strongest hits with the hammer left literal valleys where there were mountains before.
On top of that, any oath taken under the spear is unbreakable, even to the gods
I feel like Loki had a better chance if he asked for the Dwarves assistance rather than tricking them
yeah but then he would probably have to pay them, and that would involve going back to Asgard to gather the needed Gold where a pissed off Thor is waiting.
It never crossed his mind of course because he's Loki
Loki: no thanks, i choose life
Yeah, but Loki is a "trickster." A con artist and pathalogical liar.
He always takes the path of (seemingly) least resistance, which is telling people whatever it takes to get them to do things. Asking permission also puts the chance of success in the hands of others while lying allows Loki (experienced manipulator) to set the odds.
And in "defense" of Loki's decision, the odds of tricking dwarves seems like something in his favor, and he played his hand as perfectly as possible. The only thing he wasn't prepaired to prevent was a miraculous skillshot by Brock.
Of course, the lesson here is that lying, reguardless of odds, is always a high stakes gamble. And cutting a lady's hair is always a death wish.
But he is the master of trick not assistance.
“For Odin, a golden arm ring which would make 8 identical arm rings every ninth night”
Odin: advanced MAFFS
2+2 is 4 -1 that's 3 quick maffs

Loki seems like the victim in the mythological story
But in Marvel Loki.......is still the victim.....
Thor:*GET HELP*
Distractor Gaming 😂😂
Loki is hardly the victim in this story. He's the one that stole the hair of a Goddess. He's the one that came up with a way to get himself excused for this, by tricking the Dwarves. He's the one that agreed to stake his own head when one of the Dwarves saw through his scam. And he didn't even honor that promise in the end, mostly weaseling himself out on a flimsy technicality.
@@modothegreat108 he ACTS like the victim
MAI BRATHAS DAIN!!!!!11!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!
@@modothegreat108
Not to mention that he and his children are the main curse of Ragnarok. Even so Odin treated him as someone of his family and because of his greed.
Norse mythology: mjolnir would always return to him
Marvel universe: mjolnir goes to Cap
Also Marvel Universe: Hela is capable of shattering Mjolnir with her hand.
Also Marvel Hela breaks Milyer
The dwarves ÷*nervous laugh*
@Quân Anh Hà Việt It's inaccurate because marvel only got inspiration from the character, not the story
Accurate but inaccuracies at the same time
Some more context
• Loki was wasted, seems in myth Loki is a drunk
• Sif was made bold, not shaved. Loki ripped the hair bulbs
• Loki does not reveal himself to the brothers
• Thor hammer can shrink and enlarge on Thor command
Also, the fact that Loki was a god, it probably only takes a day for his body to heal so Thor can come back the next day and shatter his bones all over again. Continuing to do so until his wife's hair grew back.
"Never shatter"
Hela : Darling you don't know what's possible

MCU ruined Norse mythology...
Don't forget the No need to be worthy for welding the hammer
brok and a tree are brothers
To everyone commenting that the dwarfs could have chopped his head off in the middle:
-They were going to need his brain intact because they were planning to use it to craft something (because of all the weird stuff that goes on up there they thought it would be interesting)
-They actually did try to stab his face after he said that, but Loki has planned ahead and had a plan B in case the neck-thing didn’t work. He had made sure in advance that he had protection from all knife blades, and after revealing that, the dwarves just gave up and sewed his mouth shut instead because they were sick of his bs.
That's not in the real mythology
The "need brain" was just in the Valhalla comics and this about knives protection seems just an excuse not made in myth

@@pastelguts6182 i'ts canon in the Marvel comics that when the Ragnarok ends the universe resets except with marvel's Thor for some reason, anyway the last Thor before this Thor was the mithological Thor so they knew that his norse gods were pretty different compared to the norse mithology, and in the mcu probably because when the gods arrived on earth (for a war) they probably tell the humans (or norse people) the basic of their mithology so they made Up the rest of the norse mithology, so i'ts not a missconception is an adaptation

why not just cut it off at his chin lol
@@semicolon2599 the chin is technically where the neck and head intersect so outside of jurisdiction

2:20 his tear inspired me to try hard
Why didn’t they just like, I don’t know pierce Loki’s head?
Well at least in the mcu thanos got to do what the dwarves couldn't do to him with his ''head''
Cut off half of his head so they don't touch his neck.
I would think that it's because doing that would harm his brain, which was what the dwarves wanted to study to make more inventions.
pow wow this is Norse mythology not marvel
Because then the future would no longer be known, the gods followed the prophecy because though their losses would be great they would still emerge victorious.
This video has my favorite design for Thor. It really embodies his hot temper and magnificent manliness in a cartoonish manner.
3:30 Odin trying to figure out how the arm ring works is how I feel in every maths class
hammer is unbreakable
gets shattered by Hella in Thor: Ragnarok
Yeah okay
marvel vs norse myth
You honestly think Marvel would give a danm about what they are making a movie about?... It is a american company afterall...
Edit: Id be fine with if ppl would just see it as American BS... but no.... Some think everything is 100% like the Edda's...
Keep in mind: "Thor: Ragnarok" doesn't even understand the term "Ragnarok" (The end of THE WORLD, not just Asgard), so your point is lost to me.
They couldn't even get his name right, so why do you expect them to follow the mythology
Marvel bastardized these once great tales
