- This is Ollie from History Profiles, and this video will be about Godfrey of Bouillon. Born as the second son to the Count of Boulogne, he would have to forge his own fate in order to be recognized and remembered by history. This is his story.

"Unfortunately, when a man is in the heat of battle, he changes and becomes a beast" - truer words have not been spoken
Fortunate indeed or he would not be on top of the food chain as he is, with so much practice killing himself.
Perhaps the infidels would be spared if they had not stood on the walls, mocking the Cross and the Crusaders until they breached the walls. It was years of pent up fear and frustration that suddenly got released in an uncontrollable fury. They had been starving to death, reduced to cannibalism, thirsting, being forced to carry water from miles away in the stomachs of dead horses, more then once been faced with certain death. Even the Christians in Jerusalem was terrified by their brethren and the only thing that saved them from certain death was to cry out "Kyrie Eleison!" and make the sign of the cross.
Like a BBC documentary. What a great story. What a humble man. People tend to judge ppl of the past for their deeds and ignorance to these types of causes but when I read or hear how committed, courageous and honorable men and women throughout history were, with limited comforts, information and technology, it makes me realize how trivial 21st century problems are.
As much as things change, they still stay the same. Such a tumultuous time in history, and one that I have just recently started reading up on.
Awesome job on this epic story Ollie! I enjoyed it. Thank you
Thanks ollie fantastic video narration on point really enjoying your channel stay safe and I'll see u next week ☺️
Never disappointed with any of your videos! Thank you for all of the details, images and information that you include 💗💗💗
Even if you don't agree with the Crusades, you must admit these were very courageous men. :) Great narrative!
Deus vult.
If you don’t agree with the crusades you need to be crusader against. Deus Vult
I am so interested in all to do about the crusades and the middle ages in Europe and how more advanced they were in the Muslims world . I have been to Jerusalem and to many of the Templers castles on the Mediterranean. Thanks for such detailed stories.
In Brussels there is a giant statue of Godfoy de Bouillon on a horse.
Great to visit once.
Thanks for making that part of history more interesting, Ollie!
Excellent as always. Never heard of him. 👍😃
Great story!
Excellent as expected. Thank you Ollie!:-) 🖖
Thank you for listening !
Thanks Ollie. These are my favourites.
Thank you for checking in !
Icdidnr know that the first Knights helped the Bizentine emperor regaines land. Very interesting video. I have been to Istanbul and it's history is vast
Really enjoyed the video.
I know some of those crusading armies annihilated several Jewish communities in the Rhineland. In the city of Worms the Jewish community did a macabre reenactment of Masada.
Well, that's what they get.
your topics and background music is the best 👍💯 wad up my dude
Interesting, very interesting! Narration and nuance on point as always! Kudos bro ✌🏽
I love your voice, great narration. Thanks!
Thank you so much Jane! I hope you enjoyed the video!
I enjoy the videos on the crusaders, thank you very much.
Thank you.
Very interesting.
Thank you.
Thank you for watching !
@@historyprofiles You bet!
That was some feat! Holding up the tower wall whilst fighting with his crossbow? Was the wall made of balsa wood? It is a very interesting crusade and Geoffrey looked cute in his flowered headdress.
Thank you Ollie for your narration and getting your tongue around those unusual names. 😘
those are fruit ... same thing but not at all.
@@kyleledbetter6359 well, he won't go hungry🤣
Nice vid
Hope you enjoyed !
The knight who I will salute
I like the fact that Godfrey Wrestled a Bear and not only survived but went to war afterwards
Many details were left out. Like the spear of destiny, the run in w/ Coleman, the March from Antioch walls, Peter the Hermits trial by fire, baldwins odd yet beneficial trip to armenia, etc. Godfrey was the epidemy of paladins and set forth the example for all holy christian warriors to follow
👍👍👍
Where does that Bear That injured him came from? Do they have Bears in that part of the world?
What a glorious time! Bohemond is the greatest! ;)
How about the Defender of the Fallen Angels?
Fun fact this guy is my most famous ancestor
maybe He is my ancestor too.. my last name is Boullon..without the "i"... who Knows!!! I read something about my ancestors back to France and Spain...
arrows killed a lot of men.
How is it historically accurate that the guy in the picture at 10:24 has a gun? Gunpowder wasn't invented for hundreds of years.
Oversight on my part my apologies, hope that didn’t ruin the video for you
@@historyprofiles No, it's fine. You'll have to forgive me, I have an eye for that kind of thing.
Nothing you couldn't find on Wikipedia or in a good book. 👍
One of the biggest murderers in history, Godfrey of bouillon
I'm A Muslim...And I Found It Foolish How BOTH Of Them Went Back And Forth To Claim A Parcel Of Land -- FOR WHAT?! To "Prove" Which Religion Was Better (Than The Other)? …At The Expense Of LOSING Their Mind (And Perhaps Their Soul)!? I See Why Some People Are Turned Off To Religion. SMH
Hope you enjoyed the video !
@@historyprofiles My Apologies... Of Course!
@@rebeccalee1065 not really, all the levant was part of the Román Empire for centuries but the Román Empire dissapeared and the muslims took control of that área. Also muslims started fighting the byzantines and the byzantine emperor called the west for help. And, Jerusalem was the holy city, lot of Christian pilgrims use to go there. But since the muslim conquest of the city the roads werent safe for the pilgrims. They used to get Killed easily. First the Christians created an order called hospitaliers Who used to protect those pilgrims but It wasnt enough so the crusades started. Its not about which religión is better. Its not that simple. There are quite more complex reasons behind It
@@1488EVERGETES So What!?! I Don't Care Who Was In The Right Or Wrong, They Wouldn't Have Been Fighting In The First Place If It Weren't For The Difference In Their Religion. PROVE Me Wrong!!
@kean perera The Knowledge And Truth Of All You Ask Rests With Our Lord, Not Me! In The End, Come Judgement Day, WE ALL Will Be Judged By Him..THE ONE AND ONLY True God, God! Even If I Did Answer Your Questions, Would You Had Sincerely Believed Me!? One You Consider A Disbeliever?!? If You Consider Yourself A Christian, I Would Suggest You Restrain Yourself From Judging People Who May Follow A Religion That Differs From Yours...Was Not Jesus, The SON Of Mary, Forgiving And Tolerant? Is That Too Difficult For You To Achieve? ALWAYS Seek The Truth With Sincere Diligence -- Free Of A Biased Heart And Intentions. If You Haven't, Maybe It's Because You Haven't Obtained It. If You FEAR Knowing The Truth, I'm The Least Of Your Problems.
Well considering Jerusalem was eventually and finally taken in 1917 by a theoretical descendant of Richard, I’d say the Christians have that one sewn up in the end.
*DEVS VVLT*
I like your use of the Latin U with a V. Very astute.
Ruined the video with those dumb comments at the end.
Jerusalem is for Jews and Christian’s., not Muslims… Jesus is the god of Christian’s., not the god of Muslim.
