Shocking Real Ages of Disney Characters
ฝัง

- Have you ever wondered how old your favorite Disney characters actually are in the movies? Sure - plenty of our favorite characters seem like their ages would be fairly obvious. Yet, there are plenty whose ages may surprise you, and some might even change how you feel about the Disney films they’re a part of. You may have seen Hercules plenty of times, but knowing the age gap between the titular hero and his love interest, Meg, puts the movie in a different light. Many characters in Beauty and the Beast have ages that truly perplex us. And, even though he’s a mythical creature, the Genie from Aladdin is still older than we expected… much older. It’s also surprising to learn that some of the characters undergoing truly harrowing experiences in the movies in which they star are actually only kids. Alice is much younger than you’d expect when she visits Wonderland, as is Mulan when she fights for China. And, even though Peter Pan famously vowed to never grow up, we could have seen a version of his movie where he did grow up, after all. If you never considered Disney characters’ ages before, we have a feeling you will after watching this video. We’ve gathered together the Disney characters with ages that we found the most shocking, and we still can’t believe some of the things we’ve learned about these classic movies. Don’t be surprised if your feelings about some of these Disney characters are about to change…

Alice from wonderland was based on a real girl who was 11 years old the author was in love with her true facts
@thethings_animated thanks
@@benjaminwalters2188 they are lying
the book was written for the authors daughter bro
@@dguy0386 Except that the author, Lewis Carrol, never had any children (nor was he ever married). He did have a friend named Henry Liddell that had 3 daughters, one of whom was named Alice.
This comment is very true in fact Alice in Wonderland was written in my home town of Sunderland which is in the north east of England
02:17
Also, Angela Lansbury, was at 66 when appearance as Mrs. Potts!
And Bradley Pierce was 8 when he voiced Chip!
I always just thought that the beast and his servants stayed their age after being cursed, despite being cursed for ten years
I love how you guys did the most complicated-characters who weren't really human, or characters who have a curse related to age🤣
4:57 according to the original Chinese legend, Mulan was only 12 years old when she went on the war
Wow
Alice doesnt look like she could be 7. Maybe preteen ages at most.
20 year old actress Kathryn Beaumont is the voice of the 7 year old girl Alice in the classic Disney Alice in Wonderland
She looks more like she's 11, or maybe 12 at the oldest. I dunno, I'm not good at guessing ages.
@@alexjewett7455
Same here. I never would’ve guessed Snow White was only 14.
She's looks 13 to me
@@AmericaFuckYeah4
Yeah, I put her at 11 the youngest
So Snow White is 14 but the prince is about 31
Sounds about right
Yep, I'm not surprised, though. That movie was made in the '30s and took place way before then.
Story takes place in Middle Ages. Back then teen girls marry older dudes. Royals even married first cousins and even their uncle. Today most people try to figure out job post high school 🏫 That is if you live in a developed nation.
Weird world
Yeah it's true search it up and u be surprised
Great video as always!!😄
For some stupid reason, Cruella De Vil is the only villain on this list.
Maybe chip was a baby when he got cursed or maybe the curse froze the characters ages
I DIDN'T EXPECT WOODY TO BE 51
he was made in 1957 and Toy Story 3 takes place in 2009 so he'd actually be 52
@@dguy0386 damm
@D guy03
Depends on the day he was made like how it depends on omg r birthdays.
These Disney princesses' ages make sense also through the context of their settings. Saying "Mulan should be learning geometry at 16" or Snow White "should've been in high school", makes no sense. High school? In the middle ages? Learning geometry in 400-600 AD China? At 14-16 people were considered mostly fully grown/viable adults for the majority of human history. The concept of adolescence has expanded over the last 100 years, and so the further back in time you go the more you'll see writers craft stories reflective of these cultural residues. Snow White is a fantastic example of this! The original Snow White was written in 1812 and her character was 7 years old. The Disney adaptation was released in 1937, which changed her age to 14 years old in order to modernize her age for societal standards. If you create Snow White in the 1980s, she'd probably be 16... whereas if you create her in 2024 she's like 20. Pretty basic concept in humanities, but when you critique art from different periods cultural context needs to be understood. Sleeping Beauty (1958), Aurora is 16 and Phillip was 20. Nobody was going to bat an eye at a 20 year old dating a 16 year old in the 1950s, particularly within a narrative based in the middle ages. In 2024 if you present this age gap you'll hear words like "groomer", "creepy", etc. it's lame to critique art from nearly 100 years ago through a modern lens with the sole purpose of degrading it.
Amazing video 👌
This is awesome 😁
Him: The genie is 1M years old.
Also him: Wall-e is 700 years old and the oldest Disney character. 🤦♂️
Smh XD
he said ONE of the oldest, not the oldest.
Kaylee, prove it. Give me some evidence please, not to be rude or anything.😊
@Kaylee Edwards I’m sorry I asked. Thanks for the information tho!☺
💀💀
In beauty and the beast time stopped while he was the beast and the staff were items around the house. That's why it was supposedly winter outside the castle, but not everywhere else. Time still continued outside the castle. Also I personally think that Ms. Potts is chip's grandmother. It's just that chip's parents left or died while he was born maybe and Ms. Potts took care of him. Which is why chip calls her mama. And that's your beauty and the breasts questions answered!
I honestly never thought about mrs. Potts and Chip I mean, you're right Man she's too old to have a 5 year old unless her hair became... white or something?? 😅 And how is Chip 5yrs old when he's been a cup for 10 yrs and how was the beast 10 yrs old only in the picture? I guess I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight thinkin' about all these freakin' questions ʘ‿ʘ
I've always assumed Mrs Potts is his grandmother but raised him and he got turned as an infant. 😅😅
I really think that Chip is the Beast's son.
@@joelroman6839 I've heard that theory that Chip is the Beast's/Prince Adams son. I also heard or read a theory where everyone in the Beast's castle time was supposedly different and also that the painting of the Prince supposedly changed with that time difference.
Nice 👍
Please do more ages of Disney characters
Start with teachers in Monster High. Then characters in Hotel Transilvania.
I call my grandma Mama so Mrs. Posts could be chips grandma
You know, mother golf was actually 1000 years old.
I can already tell this is gonna be a good video
and I was right
lol ʘ‿ʘ
Crulela has to younger if she was Antia 's classmate
thanks
Snow White 14 year old what!!!! 😮😮🤭
Yes
Yep... ʘ‿ʘ
👍
Told you so cause cause prince Florian is 31 snow white is 14
Alice in Wonderland takes place in the Victorian Era; in the Victorian Era, a girls dress length depended on her age - during the 1840s, girls from 5 to 11 wore dresses that went to just below the knees, girls from 12 to 13/15 wore mid calf length dresses and girls from 14 to 16 wore women’s length dresses; during the 1860s to 1890s, girls from 2 to 3 wore dresses that went to the tops of their boots, girls from 4 to 7 wore dresses that went to just below the knee, girls from 8 to 9 wore calf length dresses, girls from 10 to 11 wore mid calf length dresses, girls from 12 to 13 wore dresses that went slightly below mid calf, girls from 14 to 15 wore dresses that went a little more below mid calf, 16 year old girls wore dresses that went to the tops of their boots and when a girl turned 17, she wore women’s length dresses; Alice in Wonderland takes place in 1865; Alice’s dress goes to just below the knee, so, Alice is 4 to 7 years old.
Megara is 28??? Man, she's so pretty on her age compared to the rest Disney Princess cast.
True-
Wow your really lucky Fale Ilham-
28 really isn’t that old at all :P
I'm not sure who started that rumor, but I've only been hearing it recently, I still assume that Meg and Herc are the same age.
@@XzyroKyxala Hm well that might be a rumor-, idk never heard of the rumor
The Encanto fandom says that Bruno's the youngest
That means he was the last of the three to be born, but they are triplets.
@@JMcMillen My opinion.
nobody talks about Bruno
Nice
It's hard to think Toy Story characters actually have an age and my mom is one year older than Woody in Toy Story 3
Andy would be threatened if he knew woody's age

Of all things in this to get my attention… it was the mispronounced name Eva instead of Eve.

The little cousins, call my grandma mama😬🙃🥱🥲🥸🫠🧐🥴
I thought alice from Alice in wonderland was 11 years old
I thought Alice was 11 I would like to keep it that way as for snow white I found that out in a different vid
How do you know the ages?
I thought Alice from Wonderland was about 15!
Lol same
' oldest cartoon '
Mickey mouse: *I took that personally*
The other girl on the picture toy story is 37 years old
I disagreed Peter Pan lives in Neverland and he never grows up.
Right but how LONG has he been in Neverland though?
Forever 12 🤗😱
Snow White is the one who surprised me the most 😮
isabela shoked me the most.
How old is gaston
Okay mate.. Let me answer one easy question!
In Le belle et le bete.. Or beauty and the beast..
Chip calls Mrs Potts Mama.. And I can explain why in two ways!
Back then (around the 1600-1800 of which the original is set in) It wasnt off for women to have children well into their 40-50's..
The second way this is possible.. ADOPTION! It also existed, in fact its always been around just never mentioned often..
Mrs Potts could of never had children of her own, and there fore, took in a young needing boy into her life and called him her SON as he would be raised as such..
As an adopted person with parents 48 years older than me.. Both ways.. Are possible. I know from experience.
So that answers the question around the 2:10 time mark
Being a kid is the best
U are wrong about Wall-E being the oldest Disney character, that goes to Kata from Atlantis the Lost Empire
First of all when I was just 7 yo old to 9 yo old.
I thought Woody is just 27.
but he's actually 51😭
Wait borno is 50!😮
Alice is 12 since it was based on a true story
Who says Meg is 28?
Woody is not Disney he’s Pixar’s
Pixar is owned by Disney no matter how much Pixar fans try to pretend they aren’t 🙄
@@bostonrailfan2427Yes, but he was created when Disney didn't own the company yet.
@@user-xx6vy9ri8pthat’s a cheap load of crap…but then again Pixar fanatics were never known for being bright.
Disney Pixar
The three sisters, Mirabel and Elisa Luisa
Woody is 51 wow
So woodys round up, went on for eight years
Old Disney
I 8 years old 9 in 2 days
5:11 Definitely Alice!
No it didn't change my opinion About the characters I still like them because there are Is my childhood favorites
Why did you not tell snow-whites husband age
The age gap is huge
I can’t believe woody is 50
Woody is now 75?!
1:11 alice actually looks more like a 12 year old than she does a 7 year old. not to mention the films theme is being careful abt what youre wishing for and alice decides to deny reality at first by entering a world of her imagination based around the concept of nonsense, before getting tired of it and deciding to accept maturity instead. and the maturity ahead wouldve been teenhood. it only makes sense that she wouldve been 12 going on 13 going by this films logic.
the original book also really had no linear plot and message unlike the film.
Please just tell me how old is Moana from the movie Moana I just wanna know
I’m 14
in the us it’s possible to be military at 16 yrs old
Toy soldiers anyone?!😑

Ask Sharlle Perro, the author of the fairy tale.
