"If your life's so carefree, Mr. Mayor, then it's my job to give you something to worry about." Causing unnecessary obstacles to petty officials, Great King, A+, would not guillotine
Where there's a mayor who "doesn't have any problem or care", it means he must not care about the problems of his village. So the punishment is just fair.
There's a detail that got lost in translation, in the Hungarian original Matthias actually gives a pretty legit reason for this whole charade. He reasoned if the mayor has no worries in his life, there's no way to know if he cares about his town at all, or if he just happens to have no problems to solve, so he put him under a little pressure. As for the execution, he had a habit of scaring well-to-do officials this way, but without any intention to actually execute them, just to shock them out of their complacent life. Mind I'm not excusing Matthias as a king (he was a pretty merciless tyrant IRL), but as a folklore character, he's basically a trickster who punishes nobles and officials for being too content to care for the little man.
gotta love how the queen was totally checking out/chatting up the naked younger guy when the king was gone but the second she saw him she ran back inside 1:32
The king took care of that.. notice who the king rewards the daughter with.. it's the young man. That should keep the queen away, lol. Or maybe he just wanted to contain the public nudists to one family...
It's the mayor's duty to help the villagers with their problems. So if the mayor writes on his front door that he has no problems at all, that either means he's negligent in his duty, or his village is a utopia. Three guesses which is more likely.
We are a product of the current world, not from many hundreds of years ago when these stories were told to everyone. Back then, they listened and understood the lessons it taught. Today, we can’t get past simple concepts with out being offended or ridiculing it.
In the story's original language it says that she should not wear any clothing but in this translation it the sentence was changed so it said she couldn't go in a dress.
@Skeptics we love you anyway I agree that this ending is a bit weird, but I guess it could either be due to either a translation error or version. As someone who isn't Hungarian and has only seen a few versions of this tale I can't say for certain...
I was sure that the girl would have to dress in boys clothes, since the king said not to where a dress, and since she could not walk or ride to the palace she would have someone carry her.
There’s another as weird or weirder in which some guy (a shepherd?) makes bets or something with a princess and makes her show him her legs, then her privates, then her boobs, and he tells the king where all her birthmarks are in response to some sort of challenge and so he marries her
I was dying of laughter when the crows covered the guards' eyes LOL it doesn't helps that the nuns turned into the crows so the imagery meaning is LOL XD
It's nice to have a story where the girl is rewarded for being clever and not pretty, cuz let's face it even in stories where she supposedly being rewarded for her kindness50% of the time she's just being rewarded for her beauty and the fact that she's kind is an added bonus.
So you can ignore the fact that she was kind but loose your shit that she’s pretty? Now I thought you wanted the focus to be on the character yet you only care about the fact that she happens to be pretty. Cause pretty people can’t be nice
King Matthias (Mátyás király) was an actual historical figure in the 15th century. He died without an heir (his only child was an illegitimate son), but he lived on in folk tales als 'Matthias, the just king'. The raven was the bird on his crest (a fact everyone in Hungary is familiar with).
I love how european kids cartoons kept the artstyle and characters design authentic to the 15th century. like they're more accurate than most historical movies.
Despite the nakedness, This is my favorite episode of the series. I like how clam and clever she was to out smart the king. And he rewarded her for accomplishments. I love it!
Mongolia has a similar folk tale where a shepherd’s clever daughter solves the king’s riddles. One major difference is that the king in the Mongolian tale is single, and he’s so fascinated by the girl’s wits that he marries her.
@@marcomartins3563 I think the OP is! I lived in Mongolia as a kid (my parents taught journalism) and I recognize her name as Mongolian. In her profile pic, she's also wearing the traditional Mongolian headdress for married women--it's so gorgeous!
We in Serbia have a similar one as well, starting with the riddles, and the King marries the girl, who made him sign a contract that she could bring what she most desired with her when the King gets fed up with her and kicks her out. When he does so, she drugged him and brought her with him, showing him the contract he signed. They both later returned to the castle.
At the very least, she could have kept her bloomers on as well as her bras! Such a move *would* satisfy the requirement of being neither clothed nor naked.
As a woman whose has a large chest and is taking the steps to a breast reduction. I HATE bras; I try my best not to wear them when I can; even going through heat strokes just to wear a tighter shirt under a looser shirt (which works well with making my boobs stay in place and look appropriate to the public, especially since I work). I don't run or jog much though due to the damage and stiffness of my back as well as my hips due to getting my chest young (20 years old and I have the worst arguments with stairs...my worst enemy). The bra actually causes more pain as it lifts up my chest from it's resting position causing the jiggle to be more painfull, the underwire as well as bands/straps dig in causing bloodied welts and rashes, and I can't find a bra for less than $60 each that I even find decent (I don't lots of money, plus I'm helping out with bills for my disabled parents). So, I mostly go braless, I sleep on my side and my stomach, and do many things most people with big boobs dread...because they feel amazing to me though the chest reduction would feel best...get what you can get for the time being I guess.
God I wish I had that much confidence in myself to come up to a king like that. This is such a cool story. The girl was awarded for being clever rather than beautiful and it felt kind of powerful when she finally presented herself to the king.
Wait. What?.. 😅 The king steals clothes directly from a person, leaving them naked. The queen flirts with the naked person when the king comes back. The mayor's daughter shows her father her butt. The mayor's horse sheds tears. The mayor fills the house with tears. The mayor's daughter is flying! The mayor's daughter is naked again. She kisses a man while still being naked, and then rides his horse. 😂😂
0:43 What, you stole the poor guy's clothes and didn't even let him wear your robes in exchange? Donk move, kingy. The guy seems kinda ok with it though, so 🤷♀️
It's certainly sensible. When the king is off fighting wars or such, who is going to be more useful as a ruler in their stead, a princess who is pretty or one who is smart? No to mention that, if she ISN'T extremely pretty, they'll be less other people trying to bed her, and a better chance that any future offspring of the union are actually YOURS. Like Jimmy Soul (or the calypso song he got it from) says "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife."
@@lime__time They are not all purely Hungarian. Many slavic folk tales have been taken from//have taken ideas and elements from Hungarian stories.

I read a very similar story in a book of russian fairy tales when I was young, though in it the riddles were different, and the girl wrapped herself in a fishnet and rode a hare to meet the king.
Yeah this is a common fairy tale. There's one called 'Clever Catherine' that I think comes from brothers grimm. She also wraps herself in fishnet and rides a sled. Later she and the king marry but they get into a fight. He tells her to leave but take the thing most precious to her. So she drugs the king and takes him home.

Umm... did they really try to wrap this up as a "happily ever after" moment?? She outwits a very childish and petty king but at the end she shows up at the castle on the back of a billy goat with her peach exposed just to receive a bag of money and some random guy (there was no mention of a Prince). Besides she was living her best carefree and worry free life with her papa before this messy king came along.
I believe it's because didn't trouble her father anymore. Now the question I'd like to ask is why didn't the daughter buy any clothes before leaving the town surrounding the palace.
is it not a happily ever after? She scored money + a man she thinks is hot. That's TWO W's! 3 if you count outwitting the literal king of the country and saving her dad's life.
lol I love it when parents warp/alter stories they thell to their chiledren then many years later they ask "Ohh where did I go wrong?" :D If you can't tell your kids a harmless story like this, how will you tell them about child molesters and what to know about those people so they know when they are being touched a way they should have not been touched? etc, etc... I could say even more examples but I don't really care, raise your kids the way you wan to, hopefully they will be smart anyways and learn from other sources the topics they need to have less trouble in the real world. Shielding your kids from every itty-bitty thing does a lot more harm than good, every good parent knows that!
I love this UA-cam channel so much because the stories are unlike any others and are fun to listen to, but I have to say this one was truly.....unique 😂😅😓
I saw a dramatization of a fairy tale with the last riddle in it. I can't remember the riding part but I think she had a horse drag her riding on a kind of dragged cot. (pallet) (Didn't walk, didn't ride the horse and no carriage) She dressed in a net and brought him a bird
That is a Russian fairytale. The girl's father was a farmer, not a Mayer, the first two tasks were different. Plus she married the king and there was a story of their near divorce. 😃 but you are right, the third task is the same, thought a solution to it was different. And it's pretty strange no matter which version.
In russia we have similar tale. The first two riddles are different but the third is the same except it goes 'not riding a horse'. And the russian girl went to the Tsar wearing fishnet and riding a hare
While we find it strange with all the nakedness in this story, we also have to understand that this was made for Europeans who hav a different sense of what nakedness means. A friend of mine to me that Europeans are not afraid of their sexuality and nakedness. They are more open about it there.
I like this thing that yt put in videos, the part were they put *most replayed* , Every time i find something very hmmm let say interesting, i would always play with the red bar and see if this was often replayed or not, you can definitely see what some people are more interested in XD
The story I read said the girl covered herself with fishermen nets, so she was naked but covered, and sat on a harness behind an ox, so she didn´t walk.
The King in this story is based on a real King: Matthias Corvinus. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthias_Corvinus The previous King, Ladislaus V, imprisoned him and his older brother. After Ladislaus killed Matthais's older brother, his uncle raised a rebellion and installed Matthias on the throne.
Okay so nobody has mentioned the naked dude from the beginning who eventually married the clever mayor’s daughter. Can we come to an agreement that nude boy was first the queen’s boy-toy and then the clever mayor’s daughter’s husband/“reward”.
Wait wait did she marry the king's scribe that was naked at the start after the king borrowed his clothes? So that guy might have been extra fine with voyeurism and also, wasn't that the queen looking at the naked man at 1.33??? SHE RAN AWAY WHEN THE KING RETURNED OH MY LORD.
It's interesting how a handsome man (the prince?), is given to a woman as a reward here. It's usually women that are treated like prizes. Not that I agree with either concept. No hate pls✌
Ya know, these stories of King Matthias set up that he's a kind and brilliant ruler that is willing to dirty his own hands to better understand and relate to his people but that's never really what we are shown. Matthias comes off more as a sadistic troll in these stories, finding good and happy people and playing cruel jokes on them.
The point is lost in translation a bit. The mayor is supposed to help the villagers with their problems, so if the mayor boasts on his front door that he has no problems what-so-ever it indicates that either: A) his village is a freaking utopia, where everyone is happy or B) he's not doing his job properly. I think it's obvious which one is more probable.
Yeah, a beast eating a grandmother and child, having it's stomach cut open to rescue them, putting stones in it and sewing him up, so he doesn't realise, and then letting him drown, pulled underwater by the weight of the stones. That's totally appropriate children entertaiment. But woe be upon thee if thee showeth thy bareth skin!
Yikes! Did she just moon her father?? Also, I couldn't help noticing a woman who I took to be the queen hanging out (flirting?) with the naked servant whose clothes the king had borrowed. Naughty joke in a fairy tale? My first thought was "Couldn't she have at least worn underpants with that bra??" but once she explained it it made a certain sense.
This king resemble to king Matthias Corvinus of hungary the son of john hunyadi. He had folktales saying he wandered in disguise throughout his realm to deliver justice to his subjects.
The third riddle reminded me of Ragnar Lothbrok's saga (the Eddas one, not Vikings series) where he told Aslaug yo introduce herself more or less like that
This reminds me of Clever Manka! It was one of my favorite stories growing up. And there's a live action German fairytale movie called the Prince and the Riddle which has a similar plot too
3:00 So, is it normal in Hungarian culture for daughters to show their butts to their fathers? I don't even understand why she had to do that to demonstrate her trick. 7:57 "I grew my bosoms myself" exactly how did you grow them yourself? Wasn't there no such thing as plastic surgery back in medieval days? This is definitely the weirdest Hungarian folk tale, I don't even understand what the moral is!
MELT UP Well, I’m not sure about the “showing her butt” part, but you don’t need plastic surgery to grow bosoms, only time from an child into an adolescent, as that’s the time they become larger. And I doubt back then they had plastic surgery, or if they did maybe they could not afford it, or it wasn’t as popular a practice among people back then as it is today.
What she meant by 'she grew them herself' is from child to adulthood, her body changed and grew (most notably, her chest). So she grew up and so did her bobs, but her vegane didnt. Well, yknow what i mean haha. They dont really grow in size as notably as chests do bruh

Now the question I'd like to ask is why didn't the daughter buy any clothes before leaving the town surrounding the palace.
is it not a happily ever after? She scored money + a man she thinks is hot. That's TWO W's! 3 if you count outwitting the literal king of the country and saving her dad's life.
If I told this story to any child, I'll just say she wore Men's Clothes instead.
No, the whole point of it is that she was not to wear clothes (it was translated incorrectly it's ment to be clothes in general not a dress)
In a version of the story,she wraps a fishing net around herself.
lol I love it when parents warp/alter stories they thell to their chiledren then many years later they ask "Ohh where did I go wrong?" :D
If you can't tell your kids a harmless story like this, how will you tell them about child molesters and what to know about those people so they know when they are being touched a way they should have not been touched? etc, etc...
I could say even more examples but I don't really care, raise your kids the way you wan to, hopefully they will be smart anyways and learn from other sources the topics they need to have less trouble in the real world.
Shielding your kids from every itty-bitty thing does a lot more harm than good, every good parent knows that!
Not sure if it's worth pointing out, but Matthias had a child out of wedlock with a well-to-do citizen of Lower Austria.
I'm a simple woman, I see Aradia, I click like
Probably all kings of the time had dozens of out of wedlock children.
I love this UA-cam channel so much because the stories are unlike any others and are fun to listen to, but I have to say this one was truly.....unique 😂😅😓
BY FAR THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS STORY IN THIS SERIES HAHAHA
I saw a dramatization of a fairy tale with the last riddle in it. I can't remember the riding part but I think she had a horse drag her riding on a kind of dragged cot. (pallet) (Didn't walk, didn't ride the horse and no carriage) She dressed in a net and brought him a bird
That is a Russian fairytale. The girl's father was a farmer, not a Mayer, the first two tasks were different. Plus she married the king and there was a story of their near divorce. 😃 but you are right, the third task is the same, thought a solution to it was different. And it's pretty strange no matter which version.
In russia we have similar tale. The first two riddles are different but the third is the same except it goes 'not riding a horse'. And the russian girl went to the Tsar wearing fishnet and riding a hare
While we find it strange with all the nakedness in this story, we also have to understand that this was made for Europeans who hav a different sense of what nakedness means. A friend of mine to me that Europeans are not afraid of their sexuality and nakedness. They are more open about it there.

I like this thing that yt put in videos, the part were they put *most replayed* ,
Every time i find something very hmmm let say interesting, i would always play with the red bar and see if this was often replayed or not, you can definitely see what some people are more interested in XD
3:00, She just mooned her own dad, I-
I always watch your videos while doing my homework. Thank you for the folk tales. I love them.
Thank you! :)
Um, is nobody going to bring up the fact that she just flashed her dad?
The story I read said the girl covered herself with fishermen nets, so she was naked but covered, and sat on a harness behind an ox, so she didn´t walk.
so we not gonna talk about how the girl was challenged to win the hand of royalty for once rather than be rescued?
The King in this story is based on a real King: Matthias Corvinus.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthias_Corvinus
The previous King, Ladislaus V, imprisoned him and his older brother. After Ladislaus killed Matthais's older brother, his uncle raised a rebellion and installed Matthias on the throne.
3:00 So are we gonna unpack that, orrr...?
The prince at the end was totally only liking her for her body
She is Like Lady Godiva.

Okay so nobody has mentioned the naked dude from the beginning who eventually married the clever mayor’s daughter.
Can we come to an agreement that nude boy was first the queen’s boy-toy and then the clever mayor’s daughter’s husband/“reward”.
Wait wait did she marry the king's scribe that was naked at the start after the king borrowed his clothes? So that guy might have been extra fine with voyeurism and also, wasn't that the queen looking at the naked man at 1.33??? SHE RAN AWAY WHEN THE KING RETURNED OH MY LORD.
I guess sex was ripe in those days
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Binge watching these and was unprepared for the adult themes O_O
dyscea I figured there would be something in this that I didn’t like. This story did come after the princess, three pigs, and three birthmarks.
4:55 I could jam to this
It's interesting how a handsome man (the prince?), is given to a woman as a reward here. It's usually women that are treated like prizes.
Not that I agree with either concept. No hate pls✌
Was that the prince? I thought it was some high ranking palace official.
3:00 i didn't need to know that...
Ya know, these stories of King Matthias set up that he's a kind and brilliant ruler that is willing to dirty his own hands to better understand and relate to his people but that's never really what we are shown. Matthias comes off more as a sadistic troll in these stories, finding good and happy people and playing cruel jokes on them.
The point is lost in translation a bit. The mayor is supposed to help the villagers with their problems, so if the mayor boasts on his front door that he has no problems what-so-ever it indicates that either:
A) his village is a freaking utopia, where everyone is happy
or
B) he's not doing his job properly.
I think it's obvious which one is more probable.
@@Verebazs Ok yeah, that makes sense. I kind of wish they'd added that part.
she dang flashed his own father
Yeah, I don't think very many Americans are ready for stories like these. Little Red Riding Hood might be the limit.
Yeah, a beast eating a grandmother and child, having it's stomach cut open to rescue them, putting stones in it and sewing him up, so he doesn't realise, and then letting him drown, pulled underwater by the weight of the stones. That's totally appropriate children entertaiment. But woe be upon thee if thee showeth thy bareth skin!
Yikes! Did she just moon her father??
Also, I couldn't help noticing a woman who I took to be the queen hanging out (flirting?) with the naked servant whose clothes the king had borrowed. Naughty joke in a fairy tale?
My first thought was "Couldn't she have at least worn underpants with that bra??" but once she explained it it made a certain sense.
Back then when the folktale was written under wear didn’t exist
Honestly WTF
Wow!! Never thought I'd see something like this here!
If you don't like it then your garden is overgrown and your cucumber is soft
This king resemble to king Matthias Corvinus of hungary the son of john hunyadi. He had folktales saying he wandered in disguise throughout his realm to deliver justice to his subjects.
Because he is the same person.
The third riddle reminded me of Ragnar Lothbrok's saga (the Eddas one, not Vikings series) where he told Aslaug yo introduce herself more or less like that
Yeah, it's a common folks tale template.
This reminds me of Clever Manka! It was one of my favorite stories growing up. And there's a live action German fairytale movie called the Prince and the Riddle which has a similar plot too
This is more revealing than I thought.
Back in those days, majors were called judges
Yeah, in the og narration its judge not mayor.
May all men have clever daughters
As you wish
Amen inşallah
Such a nostalgia, my childhood's favourite ❤❤❤
I've seen dozens of these, but this is the strangest thus far. Another accurate title for this story would be "The battle of Two Trolls."
????
this is an accurate representation of the client supplier relations in creative industries.
I just notice that the horse was crying with the father when they returning home!
3:00 So, is it normal in Hungarian culture for daughters to show their butts to their fathers? I don't even understand why she had to do that to demonstrate her trick.
7:57 "I grew my bosoms myself" exactly how did you grow them yourself? Wasn't there no such thing as plastic surgery back in medieval days?
This is definitely the weirdest Hungarian folk tale, I don't even understand what the moral is!
MELT UP Well, I’m not sure about the “showing her butt” part, but you don’t need plastic surgery to grow bosoms, only time from an child into an adolescent, as that’s the time they become larger. And I doubt back then they had plastic surgery, or if they did maybe they could not afford it, or it wasn’t as popular a practice among people back then as it is today.
yeah but how did she do it herself?@@shiroshadow1700
What she meant by 'she grew them herself' is from child to adulthood, her body changed and grew (most notably, her chest). So she grew up and so did her bobs, but her vegane didnt. Well, yknow what i mean haha. They dont really grow in size as notably as chests do bruh
To bad she didn't had any bloomers, she just showed her father that she has a "smart ass". 😂 lmao I cant with this story
So, king Matthias is just a big troll in all these stories?
I love the music in this!
she was clever enough to make UA-cam have this kid friendly
Hungarian version has 7:33 as a thumbnail and thus millions of views :p
xD wtf was that butt. DEMONETIZED.
Anyone else noticed how the queen was clearly having an affair with the naked servant 😂😅
Ahhhhhh, this tale is hilarious. I know Brothers Grimm's version, which is slightly different.
@Protagorasz indeed. Love tales 💜💜💜💜
And you thought Lady Godiva had a story that turned heads...
She certainly did and this will add to the history books!

Reminds me of the story 'Clever Katya'
Imagine making it live action.
You down bad
We ain’t gonna talk about the queen tryna hit on the messenger but passes out when she sees another naked woman
Pretty risque for a kid's animated fairy tale. :P
