Your knowledge of a variety of topics is incredible. My 7 year old daughter loves listening to you-it helps her calm down when she is angry and fall asleep. Thank you for all you do on this channel.
It makes me happy to see an educational ASMR video so developped. We never learn anything about Maya's Civilization in french schools and I never thought it could be this interesting. Thanks !
I always listen to ASMR to go to sleep, but now I’ve begun listening to you during the day to help me get through seizure activity to try to get past it without having a full-blown seizure. It really helps to have a calm voice covering an interesting topic to keep my focus on the subject and away from the anxiety of a potentially impending seizure - the anxiety only makes that potential increase. Thank you for the calm distraction.
The French Whisperer has healed my nervous system I swear. Every night I listen and he never fails to teach me and soothe me. Subconscious me thanks him too.
They kinda do, but not very well, and definitely from a white colonial point of view. Mostly “when was Christianity introduced? When did they start to assimilate into to larger white population? How were they helpful in our wars? Etc.” Which is awful, and I can’t even imagine how the people of those cultures feel
OMFG! I’m obsessed. History plus ASMR? I can’t even. WE LOVE YOU! My boys and I love listening to these before bedtime. The King Arthur one is our favorite. Please keep making them! Your voice is amazing! Have you thought about doing guided meditations?
Thanks. It is a niche, but yes, some people do like educational ASMR. I made a couple videos about animals and biology (about ants for example) and there is an audience for that. Go for it!
My sleep schedule has been really bad lately and I was worried because I had a 9am exam. Thankfully I put on one of your videos and I was actually able to fall asleep at a somewhat reasonable time. Thank you!
After the events in the United States these last couple of days, I have turned to this channel for helping to calm my nerves and keeping me from completely losing it. Thank you for that.
Thank You for all of your beautiful and well educated historical videos. We must never, forget the history of our world and thanks to you French Whisper, everyone will have an opportunity to understand what you have shared for all of us.
Educational ASMR is my holy kink now apparently. 2 hours?!?! This is ASMR College/Uni wtf. I would pass all A’s with these types of lectures. I’m so invested. I’ve learned more in this video in years. Why?!? It’s extremely engaging. I love learning and this is I-
French Whisperer with another amazing relaxing tingly perfect video. Chichen itza is one of the most beautiful places I've been! Its absolutely fascinating to think this civilization once ruled large swaths of Latin America only to be conquered by Cortes and Pedro de Alvarado because of Guns, Germs, and Steel. Trying to imagine what daily life would have been before then would be absolutely fascinating to see!
@@albertogonzalez01 Hi friend! With respect, it is true that the Mayan's had largely declined before the Spanish had arrived. They had splintered into several communities ranging throughout Central America. However, the Spanish did conquer the Mayans. It took the Spanish 170 years and a number of expeditions to finally subjugate the Mayan people. The last Mayan stronghold of Tayasal in Guatemala fell in 1697. The introduction of European diseases aided the Spanish, which decimated Mayan populations since they had developed no immunity. The Spanish colonization included forced labor and mandatory conversion to Christianity. Those Mayans who refused to give up their religious practices were arrested and tortured for heresy. Mayan artifacts were largely destroyed and all but a few of their sacred texts burnt. In 1820, the colonies broke from Spain, and the pressure for the Maya to abandon their culture was gone hence the continued Mayan traditions you see in Central America today. Also, Pedro de Alvarado was a well known mass murderer even amongst his peers. Serving as Cortes right-hand-man during the conquest of the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlán, Alvarado orchestrated an unprovoked massacre of unarmed men, women, and children during their celebration of Toxcatl in the city's Great Temple. This single event was exemplar of his ruthless style of command. And there are many other examples. He did have a mistress with which he had 3 children but I would hardly put that in the positive category considering his other atrocities.
@@NathanASMR remember the caracterystic of a conquer like Spanish or British empire was destroyed all remaining temple and then building a church or a monument, just in this year I read in the news they discover a new temple, there are a lot of buildings like chichen Itza remain unknown until today, that's a proub of the parcial conquest, also the native tongue like mayaa in their differents and variations in the lands, also the Spanish and the British brought exlaves to work in the region. So maybe the history is just parcial.
@@albertogonzalez01 That is true Alberto. I understand what you are saying. It was a partial conquest in the sense that when the Spanish arrived, many great cities from the Mayan Empire were already overgrown in the jungle. The civilzation of the Maya was not totally lost. And I recommend you read about LIDAR. It is a radar technology that archaelogists are using to explore the jungle. They are able to use this system to detect geographical variations in the ground to determine whether there are manmade structures underneath! They have discovered many temples, and also they discovered an entire Mayan city, hidden in the jungle in Guatemala and Honduras. They were able to see roads and city structures! Thank you for clarifying my friend! Have a really lovely evening! IT is really great to discuss history with you!
Born and live in the UK but have a Belizian mother so I have always had a I interest in the Mayan civilisation ever since visiting some of the temples as a young child! Another great informative video thank you 👍
I just absolutely love your videos and channel! I enjoy learning about history and so your channel is a favorite of mine. Thank you for the relaxation and education!
These videos are amazing!! Being from Scotland, I'd love a video about great historical Scottish characters if that's possible? Love these longer videos! Please keep up the good work!
Great to see this video!! I'll be going to sleep now. Thank you so much for all you do! I know I've said it before and I'll say it again-you're the best!
You may wish to ponder approaching hospice units to use these for their patients and their families. A good unit manager would make these available on DVD -24/7. Or even networked through A.I. on either their own devices, or as a choice on the individual room televisions. You could negotiate a price from the hospitals through their. Those issues, would of course, be up to you. Make in-person appointments. Nursing supervisors/managers are far too busy for drop-in visits. As a retired RN, I see these as an extremely valued resource for patients; not just hospice, but pre-ops, recovery areas, general medical/surgical units, really, for any patients. Keep up the amazing work Sir! It certainly has helped me to relax and obtain rest, & recharge as I traverse my husbands sudden blindness, taking over bills & finances, family issues, etc.😉.
@@TheFrenchWhispererASMR I'll gladly wait longer between videos if it means you can put out super long ones like this. The longer the video is, the more in-depth you can go. Not all of us listen just to fall asleep. :)
I don’t suppose you could do a video on the Second World War, more specifically the air aspect of the Second World War, been watching you for a long time and the sound of your voice always soothes me and allows me to fall into a deep sleep. Keep up the good work :)
Wow, just found your channel, you're very good and this type of ASMR is just brilliant! I love the combination of relaxation and interesting information. The downside is that it is very difficult to remember anything, because I fall asleep after a few minutes.. 😄 Love it!
Mayan food is super good they were one of the first people to use Vanilla, Chocolate in their cuisine (I tasted a Mayan Chocolate-Chile Pepper drink I was amazed) also their use of Tomato with cooking fish with Annato in a BBQ way is amazing, dish was called Tikin Xic amazing when I tried it in a small little town in the Yucatan. Also tried a dish that used Squash seeds grinded up and cooked with tomato forgot the name but wow very interesting tasting. Even among Mexicans Mayans are still being discovered

I’m loving this trend towards educational ASMR on YT. This channel stands at the top of the genre. Amazing content and perfect delivery.
Let's find out ASMR is pretty good for astronomy also
Completely agree 🙂
What are some other channels that engage in such.
Yes! The delivery is my favorite part. I really like they way the information is organized also.
Also when u wake up you remember most of it and i love it learn while u sleep
Well we all know this should be one of the biggest channels in UA-cam's ASMR community
absolutely 😬
I'm from Mérida Yucatán, Mexico. Here the mayan culture is still alive. Greetings to all of you pelanas.
Visite Chichén en julio muy bonito definitivamente. Saludos y abrazoss.
alberto gonzalez 🤣🤣🤣te pasaste con el insulto pero bueno no todos saben maya
¡Alberto, y tu mamá tambien!😝
@@anellizama8531 tu si sabes jejeje
What's a pelana? Should I, as a pelana, be offended?
So glad this gem of a channel actually returned. Please don't dip on us again
I’m Guatemalan and this makes me so happy :) the Mayan world was so advance and cultured. I want to learn more but I’m so sleepy :v
JAJJA x2
@alfred lauridsen we dont know too much about them for u too make a ignorant assumption lol
History AND asmr!?!?! Its a yes for me
Everyone remember to
-Make sure your autoplay is off
-Alarm set
-Brightness down
-Charge in
Good night 😴
**Extremely loud add plays**
I usually sleep after but very relaxing.
Masterbated.. definently masturbated

FrenchWhisperer, “Hello everyone!”
Me, “Goodnight everyone!”
Looking forward to this, although I’m usually out like a light in less than 5 minutes.
Same it takes me weeks just to finish one video sometimes
I’ve never seen one of his videos all the way through! 🤣
Glad I'm not the only one. Takes me multiple sittings to get thru a video. Which is great because by the time I'm finished the next one is out. Lol
Good news everyone!
Lucky even tho I don't believe in luck
As mexican im impressed of how well investigated this theme is!
I love your videos, they are so relaxing
You must be very proud of you're lineage to the Mayan civilization 👏
It makes me happy to see an educational ASMR video so developped. We never learn anything about Maya's Civilization in french schools and I never thought it could be this interesting. Thanks !
Let’s just take a moment to appreciate the love that goes into making these videos. Beautiful, soothing and educational!

Not only am I getting such relaxing sounds and voice, I'm actually learning interesting stuff and that's pretty rad
The production quality of this channel is head and shoulders above almost all others! Earned a new sub! Cheers!
welcome!
Schools should teach about different cultures in the world.
True. I went to private school and still did not learn nearly as much as I have from this channel regarding civilizations.
It’s called humanities & anthropology...best classes I ever took as an undergrad
We were well taught I guess......
They kinda do, but not very well, and definitely from a white colonial point of view. Mostly “when was Christianity introduced? When did they start to assimilate into to larger white population? How were they helpful in our wars? Etc.” Which is awful, and I can’t even imagine how the people of those cultures feel
It’s called “world history” and it’s part of common core in every state in America lol.
Can't wait to watch this after work! BTW, your sets are always so aesthetically pleasing 💛
OMFG! I’m obsessed. History plus ASMR? I can’t even. WE LOVE YOU! My boys and I love listening to these before bedtime. The King Arthur one is our favorite. Please keep making them! Your voice is amazing! Have you thought about doing guided meditations?
I love listening to this series of ASMR stories of ancient civilisations, educational as well as relaxing. Thank you 😊
I appreciate the gentle, thoughtful hand motions, it’s an extra layer of relaxation
Glad to hear you have 100 supporters on patreon. You definitely deserve to be successful here with all the work you put into your videos.
As someone who has thought long and hard about doing educational ASMR content on amphibian biology, this is truly inspiring and motivating!
Thanks. It is a niche, but yes, some people do like educational ASMR. I made a couple videos about animals and biology (about ants for example) and there is an audience for that. Go for it!

Thank You for all of your beautiful and well educated historical videos. We must never, forget the history of our world and thanks to you French Whisper, everyone will have an opportunity to understand what you have shared for all of us.
I've probably watched this a dozen times. So far I've learned the Mayan city-states were united by culture rather than government. 😴😴😴
