someone needs to tell the mirror that snitches get stitches

The mirror: You're not the fairest....
Farquaad: Thelonious,...
Thelonious: *smashes hand held mirror*
You were saying...?

And the mirror would tell you “crack is whack”
The Queen is jealous of her 7 year old daughter.
And the prince married a 10 year old
That's not creepy at all, that extremely creepy.
Well.... it’s very creepy and veryyyyyy weird, but I guess in the time of this story was made or set... maybe was normal...
I’m not proud of my family history...
My grand grand father from Spain...
He was 60 when he married, my grand grand mother was between 10 to 14 I think, when she married him...
Fking pedophile grand grand father...
I’m swear, I’m not proud of my family :’(
I guess I’m coming from a fking pedophile weird family lmao
@@MaCad364 Exactly, just because being a pedo was considered to be normal at that time, does not make that prince any less of a pedo.

Ok but who sees a casket and is like “yup thats a bed”
yah also she was in 7 cristal coffins like seriously what the fuck. how can that be a bed?
Someone with mental issues.
A vampire?
Orange Gopter touché
Actually, caskets really are laid out like beds. They are quite posh. And wouldn't you want your loved one on comfortable, cushioned bedding, whatever her condition?

The dwarves being a representation of the seven deadly sins is quite a chilling theory
He didn't say that
@@janinedear-barlow just cause he didn't say it doesn't mean it's not a theory. A lot of people think the seven dwarves represent the seven deadly sins. Sleepy/Laziness, Grumpy/Anger, etc.
Like how SpongeBob SquarePants characters are inspired by 7 Deadly Sins.
RicaXIII Vega Ah... just like GILLIGAN’S ISLAND
Want to know something funny??
I never thought about it in that way lmao Hahahaha
Damn you just open my mind
The seven dwarves behind the seven mountains are probably inspired by child miners. In Germany there are mountains called "Siebengebirge" or "Mountains of Seven/Seven Mountains" (both possible). They are heavily forested and rich in underground resouces. But the veins were so narrow only children would fit, so it was left to them or very small adults to crawl into these things. Hence the "treasure mining dwarves"
While that is (historically) correct, it was also LAZY & CHEAP as FUCK by the mines' owners. They COULD have made the mining tunnels FULL size, even if the deposits themselves were small/thin.
even more chilling: children who work in those conditions have their growth stunted and start to age prematurely. Hence the appearance of little old men in pointy caps stuffed with straw (worn as head protection as they did not have helmets)
So, we're not going to address that a 7 year old woke up in the body of an adult and then got married? Bro totally married a kid
The ultimate "Daddy" relationship.
lmao she was married at the age of 14, so she was unconcious for 7 years
@@darshicakishore246 still creepy as f*ck
Imagine your boss makes you pull around a glass cart with some girl in it that you're so freaking mad that you take the little B out and smack her a bit that she wakes up...are you the hero or are you fired?
I mean, do you have witness of the crime? If not, make up some stupid story and *tcharam* youre the hero now.
Well, if I were the prince, I wouldn't fire that guy, but I would smack him back as a form of punishment. It's only fair
So … she somehow survived without food or water for years … and the prince was into necrophylia - you know, for kids!
So was the prince was a borderline pedo ?
alyssa mccabe Yep
Fairy! Tale! Suspend your disbelief for the not drinking or eating
alyssa mccabe I like to at least belive she was in her late teens by the time the prince got there seing as how I don’t think it’s stated exactly how long it was that she was "dead".
@@MissCaraMint I hope that she was - I hope that she wasn't a child when he decided that he loved her - that's just creepy :o But then again, there are lovely fairy tales out there where the prince comes… and impregnates a beautiful maiden - that's actually a child- I know that times were different and whatnot but geez some of these are really creepy I swear.
Queen: wishes for a beautiful daughter*
*Beautiful daughter is born*
Queen: *i hate it*
You stole someone's comment!
Actually the evil queen is her stepmom. Her biological mother was the one that wished for a beautiful daughter, but then she died a few days after Snow White was born so then Snow White’s dad got remarried.
I was about to have one of my, unfortunately now frequent, panic attacks but watching this actually managed to take my mind off things and calm me down. Just in case you read this just wanted to let you know how much your videos mean to me and I'm sure many others. Always look forward to them.
i’m sorry to hear about that, but so glad I could help - even a little bit! hope all is well with you Ninive. keep your head up and remember the night is darkest just before dawn!

@@jennyblanch8241 is there a joke in his comment?
You said she was 7 years old,but in the pictures SHE LOOKS 20!
Did they have leap years back then?
She even looks like she went through puberty.
Whoever drew her needed her to look sexualized to give her worthiness because they don’t think women can have worth without being hot. It’s accidental sexism internalized
@@three7446 oof, probably just the wrong pic to describe a 7 year old.
I've always been under the impression that this story is about maturity (as in older age) vs. youth and if you refuse to age gracefully and won't sort of pass the torch, then bad things are coming to you. Also the obsession with beauty, and the inevitability that physical beauty will fade, and being angry or bitter about it doesn't change anything.
"Fine take her you weirdo"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh, the lovely world of fairytales. Where you find a happily ever after only through tons of abuse.
queendsheena1 crazy to think that fan fiction does the same lmao
@@juwellwaller2505 Yup.
@@juwellwaller2505 And real life, on some occasions.
She might've been unconscious for about 5 to 6 years. Girls in the past were usually married around the age of 13 and 15.
You profile picture is my whatsapp background picture!!
@@fatimapi4708 Eyyyyy!!!
Wouldn’t she still have the mind of a seven year old?
@@nicolebetzz5084 no actually, they were more trained in the past to be able to hold the responsibility of raising a family and looking after kids.
@@memyselfandi7782 Yes, but if she was in the casket for 5 to 6 years she wouldn't have had any training during that time, so she still would have had the mind of a 7-year-old.
I love the idea of a servant getting so pissed off at Snow White and having to lug her around that he smacks her omg
Can we all just agree that the servant is the true hero of snow white I mean he basically saved her by nothing but a simple smack on the back like 👏👏👏👏
There are actual historical figures who apparently inspired the Grimms with the story as well. Margaretha von Waldeck and Maria Sophia von Erthal were young noblewomen from different time periods who had jealous stepmothers and the first one died from being poisoned although it's been brought to attention that her stepmother died early on before this occurred. The latter has more elements from the classic fairy tale in which her stepmother had a spectacular mirror that may have had a mechanical contraption in it to make it "talk." It was said that the glass was so smooth and perfect that it told the truth (couldn't hide your blemishes due to the glass' clarity). Maria was beloved by the people but ended up running away and hiding in a mining town inhabited by misshapen men who started mining in the small tunnels at a young age. The town was seven mountains away from her home which is probably why the magic mirror talks abut how Snow White lives beyond them.
I was also always of the belief that Snow-white was an old German tale inspired by real events and that the Grimm version was just a modernized story. People who study fairy tales seem to say the same.
@@rai2423 Very true! If you look at Perrault's Cinderella, he included a lot of things popular during his time period (beauty patches, the name of a famous stylist/beauty supplier, stomachers, etc). You can even see it in art where people portray Biblical characters wearing renaissance clothing.
I think the fact that the Grimms thought it ok to proclaim a 7-year-old "fairer" than a grown beautiful woman is often overlooked.
Yes in the past Girls were often seen as grown and ready for marriage younger than today (though not as much as commonly believed) but back then 7 was still a child!
Maybe being fair and having a golden HEART
And the Queen actually being jealous of a child? I don't know what that says about her, but I know _exactly_ what it says about the men she wants to attract.
😒 That's a hell of a reach.
@@DJ_Mystic im a dumb dumb so can you please dumb it down :I i dont understand
@@marisatheuglybitch8584 They're men who are attracted to children.
Despite all of this, Walt Disney found a way to make an old morality tale into one of the greatest films of all time. Amazing.
J.R. Tolkien would 100% disagree with you. Fiction personalities have been destroying the symbolic wisdom of these stories forever. It’s like changing the story of Jesus without a second thought. That’s why ancient mythology is so twisted and damaged. Like the roots of beauty and the beast was our original bible.
I love the Grimms versions of fairy tails. My favorite is Cinderella's step sisters cutting off toes and heels to fit into the shoe.
I've swallowed a lot of rose petals and I'm not PREGNANT!

Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child's version of Snow White was the first time I heard that the Queen suffocated Snow White with a belt or corset. That series usually keeps details like this from the stories' source material that most versions do not. I didn't know about the Prince's servant woke Snow White up by hitting her though. THAT was hilarious.
It's so cute how that dog just appears in his arms!
HECK YEAH. The Lisa version is fascinating! All the stories had a glass coffin and half dead/livign dead girl in it.
How can they think she's dead after years of not Rooting. And even growing up. . She most have been feed
3:03 Anyone else just imagining Jon having a kid with brown lips, white skin, and orange hair?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol!
"...pulled a Goldilocks" :-D That's epic!
I like the Film Theory's version where the poison apple was made from the night shade plant but its poison was negated by being exposed to the carbon that covered the dwarves after a long day of working in the mine.
Gonna try and guess what the next one is!
The Nutcracker
A Christmas Carol (probably gonna have to do multiple episodes if you're covering that one)
The Gingerbread Man (not a holiday story, but hey, gingerbread)
Some new urban legend video to go along with Bloody Mary
...is it one of those? Either way, can't wait!!
The Little Match Girl?
@@markuhler2664 heard of it from other comments, but I know literally nothing about the plot
@@grace5033 it's really sad
I'd love it if it was A Christmas Carol because that story is basically "local rich man who doesn't give a crap about the poor gets haunted by four different ghosts and two separate pitiful personifications of suffering until he finally cares about the poor."
The original Nutcracker, I understand, is written by E. T. A. Hoffman. I have a beautiful version of it illustrated by Maurice Sendak, the illustrator of _Where the Wild Things Are_ .
There is actually a story within the story that isn't told in the ballet about Princess Pirlipat. The stories are inexplicably and magically intertwined, perhaps by Herr Drosselmeier himself. It's worth reading more than once.
Another tidbit is that Maurice Sendak helped design the sets for the Pacific Northwest Ballet Company. Mikhail Baryshnikov ( _White Nights_ ) was in it. I think he played the transformed nutcracker.
Is there a messed up origin about the princess and the frog?😳
He already covered that some years back
Oh dope thanks so much 🦋
@@brownsuga3492 You're welcome
I remember reading one of the versions of the story called the 7th Dwarf. He loved Snow White so much he not only continued to sleep one hour with each of the other dwarves every night, he also would follow behind her while she did chores to get any dirt she missed so the others would have no reason to make her leave.
The prince took her crystal coffin despite the Dwarf's objections. The coffin was dropped by the servants because one was accidently tripped by the dwarf who was sneaking behind and darting in and out of the bushes trying to get one last look at Snow White before she was lost to him forever.
Snow White never knew how much the dwarf loved her.
7000$ it was Grumpy
@@goldenowl819 If he wasn't Grumpy before, being woken up every hour all night long to move to another bed would most certainly turn him into Grumpy!
you know, in Germany as kids we actually got read the original Grimm versions and i was really confused, when first saw an Disney adaptation.
Snow White, the Disney version, was drawn to resemble Hedy Lamarr.
well they failed
@@pablojoelaban7022 did they rlly....at least when using a muse. B/c when they don't they make resemblances anyway, like Tinkerbell & Marilyn Manroe.
It’s Hedley.
Wynne DM “Why Kingy! You look like the homely piss boy!”
@@wynnedm1941 Hedley Lamar is a dude though lol
The young slave is definitely my favourite rendition... Also I love the ending where Snow White is awakened by the frustrated servant smacking her... it's hilarious
I am ever ever so grateful at how youtube just throws out random recommended and related vids when you search something.
I'm kinda on the 8th vid now straight after seeing this channel.
I love these kinds of info.
And I absolutely love learning new things, like snow white's first edition story and the source story for it. ❤️
I'm off to check out another of your fairytale and myth origins now. The way you explain them is awesome, totally mind-blowing.
So basically it’s a story of a narcissistic mother. Having had a covert narc mother and a physically abusive stepmom who was a sociopath with narcissistic personality traits as well...I realize why fairytales have always appealed to me. I suffer from a Cinderella complex and identity as a grey rock. 🤗❤️🇺🇸
Awesome job. One theory behind the connection of eating child flesh and black magic is that Snow White's stepmother/or biological mother thinks that if she ate the lung and liver, she would absorb Snow White's youth and beauty. I love these punishments to the villain also. If a person who has never read the originals hears scenarios like this and thinks its right out of Game of Thrones, they are really in for a surprise! Could you do The Robber Bridegroom please?
yeah there's a lot of different cultures, especially ones with hunting traditions, that believe eating the organs of animals they killed would give them attributes of the animal. Like being as fast as a deer, etc. Still makes it messed up the part of Queen wanting to eat Snow White's organs for her beauty though!
I loved the story of the young slave girl because it showed blood really can be thicker than water n the uncle did everything right by his niece from looking after her in the coffin for so many years and then rescuing her from herself wen she felt all was lost then publicly shaming the person who did her wrong n supporting her to find n pick her own happiness, not choosing for her 💖💗💜💙🧡❤️
Dwarves: why did you take the comb?
Snow White: it was a nice nice comb!
Thank you for all the research, time and effort it takes to put these together. These videos are wonderfully fascinating and I enjoy them a great deal!
I love hearing these old stories as they are always jacked up. Yeah, I learned some years back that Snow White was a little girl and was always throwed how a grown woman was shook by a child. And I'm not convinced that the prince didn't NOT marry a girl under 10 years of age 😶 at any case she was STILL years younger than old dude scamming on her through a coffin 😂
Oh, a that Umbridge pic put me over the edge! 😂😂😂😂😂
the prince sounds like a creeepy 30 year old dude. 😂
@@crochetcharms right! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In New York in the 1860s the age of consent (and thus marriage) was Ten. Snow White being a Child Bride wouldn't have been that unusual for the time. In Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Juliet is "not yet thirteen" ie, she was 12. Also several of the French Queen's such as Marie Antoinette and Queen Anne of Austria (King Louis XIII's Wife) were all married really young. Anne was 14 and Marie was 15.
I’m shook by your using 3 negatives in one sentence.
@@crochetcharms in a sense he probably was. During their era 14 year old girls married 30 year old men all the time and it was normal
One of the most unusual bits of Snow White trivia I read ages ago was that Snow White was supposed to be blonde. Apparently the story talked about the queen wishing for a child with 'snow white skin, ebony eyes and hair like her golden windowsill.' I don't know if it was a translation error or a change from an earlier draft but I always thought it was cool.
“no i can’t let you in, my 7 smol dads will be angry with me”
Love your videos. Love your humor. Really fun channel. Thank you Jon!
Not even 24 hours after The Wolf Among Us 2 was announced at The Game Awards, this is released. Snow White is my favorite character in the Fables comics
Thank you Jon!!

Hey John, just want to let you know I am enjoying your videos. I love hearing the old world versions of fairy tales. These never get old for me!
Great video. I've really become a fan of your work.
There are no dislikes on this video because, no one can give that cute little smush face a thumbs down. And is it just me or is Friday the 13th the perfect day to watch an episode of messed up origins
There are 3
Now 20 lol :’(
OH SH-
I NEVER EVEN REALISED IT WAS FRIDAY THE 13TH YESTERDAY!!! it didn't click into my head WHATSOEVER!!!
holy...
Gunter is the cutest smush face ever
Slang: how do want me to lace you up?
Snow white: some jimmy choos, timberlands....wait ohhh u me actual laces...boo
The most messed up is the mother who wished for a beautiful daughter, got her wish and then wanted her daughter dead... Like bish you LITERALLY asked for her to look like that tf
Actually, the evil queen is her stepmom. Her biological mom died after Snow White was born for them her dad got remarried.
Nice revisit. I recently played prince Florian in my school just a few days ago so pretty special video for me.
Jon, I am learning so much about my favorite stories. Thank you for the literature education. Btw you are a very adorable, funny and smart guy.
Sksksks relax he has a gr. (I'm jk)
0:24 😂 why that long pause just making the viewer awkwardly stare
kurogane Tsubasa I thought the video stopped 😂🤣🤣🤣
The reaserch that goes into these videos must take soooo long, love this series so much
Your format and presentation is just really awesome imhvo x
The moral of the story:
Be careful what you wish for, or you will be a salty jelly for years
I don't think that's the moral of the story ... It reminds me of the story of Narcissus, the Greek story. A man so in loved with himself that he doesn't care about the human emotions of others. This story projects the idea that a woman who also is narcissistic will even destroy her own daughter.
"Dead bod" lol.😁😁
Very entertaining, really enjoyed
I loved your analysis!! Great channel :)
I kinda love that after the queen in the Grimm story has to dance to death in the iron shoes, punishment for the queen in the young slave girl story is a public dumping.
Finding out that some servant punch her in the back and made her cough up the apple makes me want a little Snow White remake just for that part alone
wow this stuff is absolutely amazing, I never knew there was so much more to fairytales. Your channel is amazing and I'm so glad you do this and gunther is so handsome
This is one of your best videos, for sure!
I remember the original story of the mother not a witch bring jealous of snow white. I haven't heard that version of this story since I was very young. Nice to hear it again. Awesome.
Messed up Origins of Chernabog (Night on Bald Mountain) for the future?
The part about the bodice just flashed me back to a live action version of snow white that I had completely forgotten about!! Snow White: Fairest Of Them All

Hey Jon, you should read Fables comic by DC and play the game The Wolf Among Us. It about how all the fairy tales characters come to New York City after being force to leave the homelands. I would love to see you do the messed origin stories of them.
That kind of sounds like once upon a time.
@@despicablepenguin yeah but its has adult content and the Big Bad Wolf has a thing for Snow white.
@@BleuEri ok no offense but reading that sentence just sounded really weird.
@@despicablepenguin well in this version the seven drawfs raped Snow White and traer her as a slave. She and the wolf has kids together.

Yves Forbes Flores la llorona would be great
Yves Forbes Flores WTF is Donkeyskin? I’m interested
@@caraf8727 Here's the full synopsis of the story:
A king had a beautiful wife and a rich castle, including a marvelous donkey whose droppings were gold. One day his wife died, after making him promise not to marry except to a woman whose beauty and attributes equaled hers. The king grieved, but was, in time, persuaded to seek another wife. It became clear that the only woman who would fit the promise was his daughter.
She went to her fairy godmother who advised her to make impossible demands as a condition of her consent: a dress as bright as the sun, a dress the colors of the moon, a dress all the colors of the sky, and finally, the hide of his marvelous donkey (which produced gold, and thus was the source of his kingdom's wealth). Such was the king's desire to marry her that he granted all of them. The fairy godmother gave her a marvelous chest to contain all she owned and told her that the donkeyskin would make an excellent disguise.
The princess fled and eventually found a royal farm where they let her work in the kitchen, despite her ugliness in the donkeyskin. On feast days, she would dress herself in the fine gowns her father had given her, and one such day, the prince came by her room and peeped through the keyhole. He fell in love at once, fell ill with his longing, and declared that nothing would cure him but a cake baked by Donkeyskin, and nothing they could say of what a dirty creature she was dissuaded him.
When Donkeyskin baked the cake, a ring of hers fell in it. The prince found it and declared that he would marry only the woman whose finger it fit. Every other woman having failed, he insisted that Donkeyskin try, and it fit. When she had dressed herself in her fine gowns, his parents were reconciled with the match. Donkeyskin later found that her father had remarried to a beautiful widow and everyone lived happily ever after.

Itd probably be in mythology explained
If I'm not mistaken he already has.

I remember back in 2019/maybe early 2020 I watched the first origin explained of snow white since my teacher told us about the origins of some fairytales so my friends hunted down the original story and now I remember watching one of this videos, damn time flies by so fast...
I LOVE John Solo.! So fun to watch!
