Exactly. These are the stories my mother used to tell me when I was a child. She is Swedish and knew all the stories about the Gods. I also remember folk tales about dwarves and fairies like this one she used to tell about a fairy that got stuck to a gravestone because it had a cross on it, which is a holy symbol. The man who caught it forced it to grant him wishes. Wish I could find those stories.
I’ve watched this to help me fall asleep so much, whenever I pull my phone up around midnight, it’s the first recommended vid that pops up for me hahaha.
To Trent Wilson. To fall asleep to? This(the content of this video) is very interesting! Yeah, until one is so tired, of course, and then it might be good to go sleep while listening to something interesting. (First I had thought that you meant to fall asleep to because it's boring.)
I remember when i was a teenager finding this video, i had always loved mythology, greek and roman, norse, even fables, celtic ect ect, i remember listening to this for the first time (i was about to go on holiday with my family and needed somthing i could listen to that would load quickly and didnt have moving pictures so my data wouldnt be eaten up when i found this) i remember using my phone to hotspot my new kindle fire tablet as id figured out that once a video had loaded on my kindle i could watch it without signal as long as i didnt try go on any other videos (weird quirk the kindle had was that it would lock the controls when no signal so the video was fixed, i could go back and forward upto the loaded point to my hearts content), so loaded a large portion on to my kindle befor we left in the taxi and then used my data to load the rest, brightness as low as possible as i listened to music on my phone, once we were waiting to board, it finally completed so as i sat and turned my phone off, i had a full flights worth of entertainment. It was the perfect length for the flight but also i fell so in love with the voice and the stories, after which i listened to it probably 5 or 6 times on holiday and well i was watching Kaos on netflix which snapped the memory back lol
I'm gonna be completely honest. I just woke up and I realize that i left auto play on when i fell asleep by accident. I ended up here when i woke up. So i watched your video again and i think it was pretty interesting.

Great audio and story telling. I only wish they would have included The Building of the Wall, The Mead of Poetry, Thor as a Bride, Otter's Ransom, Freyr's Courting of Gerd, and I wish they would have also mentioned that Ragnarok isn't the end all. The world actually reemerges and some of the Gods, including Baldr, come back to life
I am just learning about the subject and this is one of the most fascinating videos on the Internet where would you suggest that I learn about Norse Myths.?
Wrong bud After Ragnarok, rhe workd was reset, new sun and moon, 2 humans protected by odin, and thor and odin's descendants lived. No God's came back, no wolves, serpents etc. Baldur and all other God's dead. Also baldur died before ragnarok Facts bud....
@@tianshi2006actually Baldur did come back because he came out the underworld because no was was there him and thors sons or grand on sons came to guide humans and give them the earth and go away basically
I see a lot of people saying they were having trouble finding this video again... all you have to do is hit the like button and you’ll always know where it is... or start a playlist. That’s what I do.
“Soon after his right foot mated with his left foot and he gave birth to a six headed giant cow… the cow fed on the ice… and then something stranger happened.” As if all of the things that came before were perfectly normal 😂 My wife had to point that one out to me - after 50 times listening on my own, never noticed it because the narration is so good
Loki is the charming and skillful narcissist. Some Loki energy is essential to living life well as some rules are shit and need bending. These rules can be social, legal, moral or what have you. So I see rules are ultra important and life affirming as habit and way... but the occasional bending or breaking of the rules is part of truly winning. Stay aware Mid-Guarding’s 🌘🌞 ✨ 🥶-😎-😡 🌊 🏕 🌋
The problem is, if you win by bending the rules, then you can be easily taken down later when someone decides to look into your success or decides you're either in their way or hurt them somehow.
@Spencer Wells Well of course it happened, it's no accident that i prayed to get banished from my school years ago so i could have a month or 6 off and actually got banished.
This is the only way I can get to sleep sometimes Something to keep my mind captivated as I drift off God knows how many times I've listened to this now
Lol lowkey almost flipped when I couldn’t find this at first. I’ve been digging neilman’s take on the stories but the guys voice and specific stories give me middle school nostalgia
There is a mythical incarnation of Rama, the Destroyer, who put away the world of the Gods forever! A lone warrior with a single holy mace, by which he dispensed of all the Gods!
I think you are, tbh. I love it, but I had to chop it into parts to listen prior to sleep. I've listened to it countless times, but, I always fall asleep at the same places. Have you listened to it more than once?? If not, I highly recommend it.
It's an audiobook on audible, tales from the norse legends Also recommend looking up Benjamin Soames the narrator on audible too He's read loads of books
@@Frank_UK_was_taken THANK YOU! I’ve wanted to find the real source of this video for so long, I remember seeing this as a video 6 maybe 7 years ago, but I could never find the source!
There is just so many flaws in this telling of the old stories. Gerd(a) was not the daughter of Angerboda and Loke. Her parents were Gymer and Aurboda. This is just a small sample of so many things in this audiobook that is totally wrong, i would suggest moving to another more accurate depiction of the old sagas.
Best video I’ve ever seen..On this incredibly fascinating subject is absolutely mesmerizing this is fascinating it’s absolutely amazing thank you so much I’m talking into an iPad so this is really really bad in terms of grammar so I apologize for that. This is also one of the best videos on UA-cam I favor did I I should share it as well
Discogs is a great website for finding records. If you prefer getting your hands dirty, check out some thrift stores. That's where I've found most of my storybook vinyl.
There's no evidence that vikings had symphonies. Maybe add some bass or turn down the music a tad. Seems easy to tell vikings made these stories up for the entertainment of their children. Doesn't much fit with any other known ancient texts. Interesting stories.. giant's feet mating and having offspring before he was fully formed and/ or awake.

Ummmmmmm not only did you leave out a lot of information, you also told a couple of untruths as well. 1). Vidar was not killed by Surt, he survived Ragnarok. 2). Loki and Heimdall killed each other, they wasn’t consumed in fire until after their deaths… 3). Tyr was not swallowed by Garm. 4). Surt did set everything ablaze with fire, but he was also consumed and killed in the process. 5). A new earth, sun, and moon will rise again. 6). Balder,Hodr,Vidar,Vali,Magni,Modi,and others will survive Ragnarok.
Look at a channel called 'Ancient times' Greek myths and legends part 1,2 & 3 each over 6hrs been on there for over 5yrs pretty awesome they are Hope that helps
