Fun fact: Agrappina was a recreational sponge diver, which explains why she was able to swim as far as she could.
Thank you
I was wondering about that
How in the hell did she swim that far for so long?
Makes since
And funnily enough one of the oldest shipwrecks was found by a sponge diver
She was such a girlboss tbh
Huh, nice.
That is so funny, what a cool lady
Nero was definitely a sociopath, but he also definitely got that personality from Agrappina. Both were crazy crazy.
I was gonna say, this spin of Agrapinna as cool or smart or strong is wild AF... She was clever, in a devious way.... and I guess a good swimmer? maybe?
But the woman was an absolute monster, and like 95% chance most of what was wrong with Nero was directly because of how she raised and interacted with him
Saw what you did there, little Ceasars pizza.
Yeah, like writing a letter to him showing she was not suspicious of him at all, not very convincing 😂
nero from dmc?
Nero's father, Domitiius Ahenobarbus, was.alao a sociopath/murderer (and Agrippina's first cousin once removed).
Agrappina had such badass Last words! Love the art as always! You're the Best
Is it really a badass words though?
This short make it seem like she pridefully said the line but when you actually read the history records from both Tacitus and Cassius Dio, It's actually more like a despairingly cry of sorrow kind of words than prideful one.
@@ThanoosUdomshhhh don't ruin the good time with facts and logic
Is she where we get the word Agro from XD
@@Smalltown_Man Incredibly dull
anyway, badass. @@ThanoosUdom
Agrippina also had a track record of having husbands, step-children, siblings, and children suspiciously dying upon Nero's ascension
If that's correct, then this is a man protecting himself from his deranged mother.
666th like. His mother was a terrible woman who caused his problems. She was a monster
@@pharaohsmagician8329 did the hitmans succeed ?
@@whats-ur-problem yes
Agrappina watching the crew beat her servant to death after she called herself the Empress: Bit odd init
nah took one for the team.
Listen, I don’t know what you expect her to do in that situation short of self sacrifice.
Servants were supposed to do anything to save their Masters in these situations, if they failed they may be executed, so damn if you do and damn if you don't.
Chewsday innit
@Oscar-ws3mf Well in some cultures yes. But I think the servant was trying to save herself. But it backfired.
Agrippina could also qualify as Worst Mom in History. Nero didn’t kill her just for a power play. She was actively controlling and abusive towards him. Including repeatedly making him consume poison throughout his childhood, allegedly to build tolerance. One of the many reasons he grew to become a nutcase.
Was wondering if someone was gonna say this... Like this shorts representation of things is deeply inaccurate and wild af... they were both crazy monsters, but she was no victim, and Nero wasnt JUST being crazy or evil
She's might be behind some of the other death, like the previous Emperor.
This. This is what they really needed to focus on. This short instead makes Nero appear to be a murderous nutcase for no reason.
It always comes full circle... Villains are made, not born.
@@tandava-089I don't think the short described her as a victim. It just said what transpired during her assassination.
So...we've had worst dads,worst moms,now worst kids...i'm curious if one day we'll get like a worst grandparents, worst in-laws or worst aunts and uncles in history lol
Worst father's brothers sons former roommates in history!
Worst uncle has got to be Richard the third. Bro threw his nephews in the tower of London to straight up DIE.
Worse Grandad? Tywin Lannister
If you really want to think about the dark stuff, the worst familial situations in history are the ones you'll never hear about since they never got caught.
Worst spouses in history!
“Strike the womb that bore my son” is the best last words I’ve heard yet because of how hard it hits
She realized she couldn't run anymore, and decided to face her death bravely, like her father's daughter!
My dirty mind just thought that the 3 Hitman were going to do something else instead of kill her after she said that
Kids now? Dang there is a lot of crazy people in history
More than we''ll ever fully know
Considering Australia lost a war against it's own national bird...
If anyone wants to hear about some good parents in history, Marie Curie apparently makes the list.
Must be the lead they used to make and flavour everything
@@charliefarmer4365 Dang. The world truly is upside-down down there
@@kongernen9373 And France almost started WW3 with Brazil over lobsters...
To be fair Nero had reason to kill her. She had been poisoning him with lead lined cups which is why he was prone to chronic migraines, which in turn made him extremely short tempered.
To be fair at that time lead probably wasn't seen as poison
@@user-xh4ov1so1peven if it wasn't, she killed a bunch of people so Nero could get in power (including his family iirc)
Context note:
Many Romans used pewter tableware. Pewter is an alloy of tin and lead. They were slowly poisoning themselves unintentionally regardless of any help from family members.
@@zarabada6125especially when they are tomatoes. People thought tomatoes were poisonous when in fact the acidity of the tomato juices were just exposing the lead in their pewter causing lead poisoning
Weren't Romans already just poisoning themselves with lead products?????
Suggestion: the kids of Juana la Loca of spain who never bothered to reléase their mother from the imprisoment they imposed on her
Juana the Mad, sister of Catherine of Aragon? Oh yes absolutely. She was betrayed by all the closest men in her life: her father, husband, and sons. 😢
Her own father and husband were part of the whole thing
Her step father was kind enough to visit her and try his best to entertain her at least. @billcipherproductions1789
@@billcipherproductions1789They all basically pretended she was insane specifically to cut her out. Fucked up.
She was kept there more for political purposes than anything. Charles I was not popular in Spain, as he was mostly culturaly dutch and didn’t even know spanish (and also installed dutch administrators in spain), so she could have been used a tool by rebels who disliked Charles. She wasn’t kept there out of pure malice, and she actually had a pretty positive relationship with Charles
It gets funnier when you learn that he tried to kill her in other ways too only to fail. What worked in the end was a single sword to the gut lmao
"dropped down on her looney tunes style" caught me so off guard i swear
Hello wild rain world fan
@@AmbertheSergalfox greetings
wawa
five pebbles
I remember my high school world history teacher comparing the failed attempts of Nero to kill his mother to schemes by Wile E. Coyote.
Telling 3 men to "strike my womb" sounds like the start of an adult movie
What…….
BABBAHAHAHAHAHA
Well... When you phrase it like that then...
AYOOO!!!
Hot🥴
Would.
Ugh, why is mom always ruining everything!
Tell me about it guys!
Lol
I know
More like worse siblings in history
Lol
That servant must've been so confused on why they were intentionally killing her as the "empress" 💀
The way I read it, the servant had figured out they were trying to kill Agrappina and pretended to be her so she could get away.
If that's true, I would really like her as my servent😃
@@miaaasethI have some bad news for you, then...
@@citinox1778why, did the servant hurt her or conspire against her too?
@@charliefarmer4365 Nah, she was just trying to save herself in that situation. I’d do anything to save myself from drowning, including lying about my status or person to soldiers.
@@phantomarceus6387Both options seem plausible. The servant could've realized that all the mishaps on the boat were an assassination attempt on her mistress's life and claimed to be the Empress as a sort of self-sacrifice. She also could've not put the plot together and tried to save herself. We'll just never know.
She kind of deserved and not going to lie, especially after what she did to him when he was a child
@@Meachi2 oh yes she did, especially after what she did to him
@@Meachi2You clearly don’t know anything about Agrippina the Younger, as she was poisoning Nero his entire life.
She literally was planning her son’s assassination to put his stepbrother on the throne.she was assassinated when she was planning her SECOND assassination attempt on Nero, to replace him with his second maternal cousin.
So, uh… yeah, she 100% did.
I think Nero and Agrippina both qualify for this. Him for worst sons ever and she for worst moms ever. They were both sociopaths.
How was agrippina terrible?
@@Raven-lu5ee She poisoned her husband Claudius to install Nero as Emperor, for the beginning of Nero's rule she kept him in check by threatening to put Claudius' son Britannicus in charge, basically threatening to kill her own son. She didn't care about him, she only cared about the power and prestige.
@phantomarceus6387 oh damn, thanks for the info. I might read up on this, sounds interesting!
Yeah, I would have come out of the water taken my goods and left never to be seen again. This lady was nuts to write her son after an obvious assassination attempt.
She clearly didn't want to let go of the power and the ego thinking that a letter would be enough like woman he tried to kill you 😂😂

Because she was losing her mind.

@@frankie3010 yeah its not like she saw her husband get shot straight in the head or anything....
@@Nepafarius Dude, she lost her husband and three of her four sons. No wonder she went round the bend.
@9eishitasharma501 she was reportedly pretty nutty before that happened.
Agrappina was basically Cersei Lannister. She schemed and lied and killed to make him emperor. Look how that worked out for her
Trueee, House of Dragon too
😮😮
If i remember the story correctly the issue with the couch wasnt that it was too big, but that because romans reclined sideways on couches Agrappina only suffered a mild shoulder injury
and Nero didn't *Just* kill his mother for power and prestige but as revenge, in order to get Nero on the throne she married her Pedo uncle Claudius and gave him Nero as a plaything
If that is true, no wonder he was a psycho
Holy crap
Revenge for what, making him emperor? It was definitely not revenge. Also Agrippina was around 34 when she married her uncle
Even tho Nero is horrible, Agrapinna should be on "the worst moms in history!".
@@matteusconnollius1203 Did you fail the part where he said "pedo uncle" and "gave him Nero as a plaything"?
Nero was sick of being called deadweight. 💀
Beat me to it
Not to mention how Agrappina might've also killed like tons of people to get Nero on the throne too
Yea but still doesnt count as a horrible mother
@@Slanatheoir No, they meant like Agrappina most likey killed for her son. The meaning's in the message.
Damn Nero was deadweight
You think that’s bad? Elagabalus was made emperor as a teenager and he had a pretty sick sense of humour. His idea of fun involved hosting lotteries where he’d mix the tickets with venemous snakes and catapult them into crowded streets, and he’d troll his houseguests by letting lions run around his palace. He was so ineffective a leader he only lasted four years before being assassinated by the same relative who made him emperor in the first place.
He definitely sounds like how'd I expect a teen emperor to act.
I’m sure he was also a femboy in a way
And the OG literal rock worshiper,so much so,some speculate the one housed in Mecca was his
Just guys in general. Evil
I learned that from horrible historys
NERO?
ALL OF THESE THOUGHTS RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD
BLINDING MY SIGHT IN A CURTAIN OF RED
To be fair Agripina gras a pretty terrible human begin too.
True, but at least she didn’t let a town burn while demanding people listens to her music instead of putting it out. Then blame an innocent group of people who had nothing to do with the fire for it. *eyes Nero*
@@starstorm1267this never actually happened though as nero wasn't even in rome when it burned
@@starstorm1267that might of never happened. Most history written about him was written by his enemies, so i guess we will never know
@@starstorm1267nah, his behaviours were learned from her
@@alfredoangel4327 Funnily enough, he opened his palace to the public while he rebuilt Rome so it wouldn't happen that badly again.
The mother has plot armor, she's the main character for sure.
Many of the the historical narratives written about Nero were from rival faction many years after his death and Agrippa’s “last words” were taken line from line from a famous play at the time. He didn’t play the fiddle while Rome burned it hadn’t been invented yet. He was at a vacation villa and immediately returned at news of the fire and opens the doors of the palace to those affected. History is written by those who hang heroes
Though using one of the affected areas for a large rebuilding project certainly didn't help, even if the fire itself wouldn't have made any difference.
@@llSuperSnivyll yeah, I was about to being this up. He built something especially for him in the area that burnt which is why this narrative was brought up.
@@PJ_Playz added that last line for the dramatics. He is by no means a hero, however he isn’t what he’s been painted as. He was a very popular emperor with the people as he lowered taxes, gave slaves more rights(including the ability to report on their masters)
@@CyberiaCafe oh I know. I am speaking only on the fact on why that narrative popped up in the first place. It was said that he built on the area that burned something especially for himself which was fishy to a lot of people looking at it. Edit: it was Domus Aurea he built over it aka his "Golden House."
Could you provide any sources about this? I'd love to read more about it.
Let's not forget, Agrapina the Youngest went out of her way to make Nero the emperor. She kind of brought that on her self
Yeah the last words go hard, but like she poisoned Claudius (this is more believable then the alibis conspiracy’s) who was one of the better Roman emperors to put her son on the throne.
So very little sympathy for that one
immediately thought of juana of castile’s son, bc like didn’t he let his mom be put away and called crazy? or was that just her husband and father’s doing.
The family jewels joke really hit hard. Lol
Nero was a son from hell? Dang who pulled his devil trigger
"HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! I got you a booby tra- I mean a nice relaxing cruise!"
to be fair, Agrippina was not a model mother either. Like a textbook evil queen, she tried to use Nero as a proxy to rule Rome, but didn't count on Nero rebelling against her.
It may sound ignorant on my part but I thought Roman women lived isolated lives? Like the amount of strength and energy it took for her to swam all the way to the shore seems like the was relatively active
True, but she was also imprisoned in a small island for a long time. Maybe she had swimming lessons to pass time 😂
@@bakthihapuarachchi3447more than fair tbh
Most historians didn't (some still don't) care for women, this doesn't mean women didn't exist or have otherwise fulfilling lives that went unrecorded.
That and a significant amount of women in history died due the birth of their 6th+ child, roughly by age 30.
The Romans were a seafaring people in the middle of the Mediterranean. They would know how to swim especially the elite who had time for it.
@@NaviRyanseafaring after they beat up Carthage.
This whole family was just batshit insane to be honest
Funnily enough Agrappina would also fall under worst moms in history as well. Since she was trying to control the kingdom through her son and was trying to replace him when he was no longer complaint.
his mom was literally evil though...
She would also fit for a worst mom from what i understand but Nero was still worse then her by alot
According to all records, she kept her son in check(Nero only git worse as time went on. He's literally notorious), and was a fair and kind regent.
@@NameHere2856Nero was reportedly loved by the masses in his time and all the hate we hear about his were just the senators he fucked over (pretty much all of them) and since the illiterate masses don’t write the history we got a very distorted and biased account of Nero’s life
@@Sgt_ioiwsl Funnily enough, Nero was going to support the Senate at sharing power... but Agrapina vetoed it...
... which became a common theme between him and Agrapina.
To be fair she kind of made him like that. She was also psychotic
It’s very important to know that this account was written years after Nero’s death by his political opponents and was most likely fabricated. The story of Agrippina (especially the part where she asks to be stabbed where the monster is created) was ripped almost entirely from mythology.
We need a "worst moms in history " episode of
Irene of Athens!
She is pretty much an Agrippina who supplanted her son.
i love the charactars, they look so cute
“Strike me here, where the monster was nurtured”
Suggestion: Best parents in history. Marie Curie could make the list.
Why's that? I know of her scientific achievements, of course, but never heard of her kids.

Oh, wait...
Mother Mary was an amazing mother to Jesus tbh
Fun Fact: nero was so 'hairy' he banned saying the word goat around him was against the law.
She is the sole reason he came to power in the first place
i love your artstyle man
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, apparently.
In reality Agrippina was the evil mother, Nero was just a theater child forced to be his mother's puppet who only had him to have the throne, she manipulated him and constantly belittled him and the murder was something that everyone in the empire agreed on because the woman was a real witch, being the mastermind behind Nero's murders, she was the one who drove him to kill to get the throne
The mental damage that Nero's mother had on him was such that even after her death, Nero felt haunted by her ghost
I guess you can say that Nero must've had a lot of thoughts running through his head when he saw his sister still alive.
Well... Agrappina wasn't the best mum either, she did have her own killing issues to get to be empress.
She was also possibly the worst mom in history to be fair and nothing that was written about Nero wasn’t political slander from the elites
What does worst mom even mean in the context of history or political rule 😂. By the same token your opinion is based on fact or truth? 😂.
@@stevenbaker7894 what are you even saying fact or truth??? I have to choose one??
lol it’s based on history…
@@stevenbaker7894 full transparency is English your first language?
Little context: Agrippina poisoned the previous emperor, so her infant son can become her puppet emperor, while she ran things. However as he grew up, Nero started to assert his independence, so Agrippina started threatening that she would replace him with his cousin. So, taking a page from *her* book, he poisoned his cousin… yeah, Roman families were messed up
Oh! New series! Yes please ❤❤❤❤
nero deserves a whole series
Hold up, make your research about Nero mom, she was evil she makes Cersei look like a child
Everyone ever hates Nero for one reason or another, but his Mom really took the cake.
Suggestion: Thutmose III had the worlds coolest aunt/stepmom (Hatshepsut) who taught him everything he knew about being a great pharaoh and he repaid her by attempting to completely erase any trace of her existence from history and took credit for all her accomplishments
This makes me also want the channel to do a "awesome moms in history"
YES. NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE TALK ABOUT THIS.
Hatshepsut/Maatkare was a brilliant parent and Thutmose did her dirtyyyyyyyyy
Interestingly, some speculate that Hatshepsut was the one who raised Moses. After what Moses did to Egypt, could you really blame Thutmose for wanting to torch her memory for basically raising public enemy number one?
I love the animation in this video
"Im the empress!"
*gets jumped*
The actual empress: uh, im a crew member!
don't feel too bad for her, she poisoned her husband (and uncle) Emperor Claudius to death in order to put Nero on the throne.
Bro is legit a deadweight💀
...And for Nero, that's scrapping the Ice Berg of his attrocities
Nero was horrible but he definitely got that from Agrappina who did pretty messed up stuff to make sure her son (Nero) and not Britannicus became emperor and she definitely acted way more based on her own interests then his.
Agrappina was a wicked woman who killed her husband the Caesar after she persuaded him to leave the heir (his own son) to be her son... she had what was coming.
Neron was one of the worst kid ever but aggripine wasn't one of the best mom. And she was probably the worst nephew
These calls are very entertaining and I’ve been binge watching your channel lately while doing other things around the house or biking and running errands. I especially enjoy the PCH and Mega Millions calls because they usually last longer and they get off script more easily than call center scams thus creating more unique and humorous situations. Their nastiness, narcissism, stupidity, selfishness, and insatiable greed and disregard for other people is revolting and reallllllly makes me frustrated and pisses me off
"Its you, its you"
-my mom
Nero isn't just the worst kid in history, he's one of the worst people in history
Should've gone into hiding rather than altering Nero she was alive. He may've just assumed she'd drowned.
Love your channel
What a coincidence….My cats name is Nero and he meows 5-10 times in a minute for attention 😂
I really enjoy your different perspective on, not only history, but the entire take of families and generations over the years. You have some very fantastic original content. Keep up the incredible work please and thank you! 😊
I would have been a bit suspicious too I like to think
Fun fact: Nero is supposedly responsible for burning Rome down and blaming it on Christians, though historians today think Nero himself didn't do it
Here we go again.
Agrappina also tried to gain control of Rome through her own son, Niro. Accounts also stated that Niro tried to kill her mother because she was a psychopath. Niro was no better, but Aggripina tried everything she could to seize power in Rome. She slept with her brother Emperor Caligula and tried to have him assassinated in a coup with her younger sister and her middle sister’s widowed husband. Caligula ended up banishing her and it wasn’t until her Uncle obtained power in Rome that she returned on a pardon. She then married her Uncle and gave birth to Niro.
worst deadweight in history
A suprising amount of people say that Nero is the Antichrist but like, hes too obviously evil for that role. Isn't the Antichrist supposed to make people think hes good?
New series idea
Best moms in history?
RIP To All The Dead 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Don't forget to make a video calling her out. She was just as bad, if not worse than Nero. In fact, IIRC, her letter only fanned the flames by implying that she thought he was too dumb to come up with a Looney Toons plan like that.
That whole family was the type to anger The Devil with their psychotic shenanigans. Here he is trying to run a planet (1st John 5:19, 2nd Corinthians 4:4) and prove that he and/or Humans can decide for themselves what is right and wrong (Genesis 3:1-5), and he has to deal with people like this. 🙄 They were so awful that even mental illness and lead poisoning can't account for their behavior. Nero was a better leader than some historians and anecdotes make him out to be - like that likely exaggerated, or outright untrue story of him fiddling while Rome burned - but he was as evil and horrible overall as his parents.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: When both God and the Devil think you're wrong, you are wrong.
It’s not like Agrippina was a good person either. She murdered emperor Claudius by poisoning him and several other contenders to the throne so that Nero could be in charge.
good video for mornings
That final act of defiance is badass.
This woman was just as horrible as her son. Had an incestuous relationship with her brother Caligula and then her uncle Claudius, probably poisoned Claudius, then his freedman Narcissus and then Claudius' son (her cousin and step-son) Britannicus.
If that wasn't enough, she was likely doing the horizontal tango with Nero himself too. (Incest bingo anyone?)
What's funny is that this assassination attempt was not the first one, there was a previous one where Nero tried to have the roof of Agrippina's house fall on her.
(Interesting side-fact: Future Emperor Titus was a stalwart companion of Britannicus. He was at the dinner where Britannicus met his end and, upon realizing what had happened, drank from the same cup that had poisoned his friend in an attempt to die with him)
(Interesting Fact Number 2: Agrippina also REALLY hated Titus' dad, also a Future Emperor, Vespasian)
“Bashed to death with an oar” my gosh 😂
Due to all of this, his father Vergil cut off his arm and turned it into the Yamato, to seperate his own humanity and inner demons. Then Nero had to replace his now stump of an arm with a mechanical replacement from his Texan friend. To defeat his father Nero teamed up with his uncle, wacky pizza man and V. Wacky Pizza Man fights the inner demons of his brother, king bowser, defeating him. V shows something really cool to King bowser and becomes Vergil once more…. Did I mention the tree?
She just ate the most sour candy.
Agrippina: "What a beautiful child-he will be so good when he is older."
The Child:
UMU
Again, he learned these behaviours from her
DAYUM!!! She sure damn did "go hard"! NGL... I didn't learn THAT while watching "I, Claudius"!
