They say Loki is a trickster...He seems more of a four-year-old lunatic with superpowers...tying his junk to a goat and having a tug of war, shaving Thor's wife's head for no particular reason...He's more of a completely impulsive loon than anyone tricksy or malicious.
He is the unpredictable force of Change, which often brings hardship, but always has the capacity to make those hardships sources of extraordinary treasure that would otherwise not be accessed. He is one of the greatest aspects of humanity.
"Loki tied one end of a rope around the beard of a goat," Mhmm? "And the other end around his testicles," Ok, what the fuck? "The goat and Loki proceeded to tug back-and-forth, each squealing loudly," WHAT THE FU-
THey are usually even weirder in their origanal languages due to translation errors, and basically all old religious stories are just people trying to explain things they dont understand.
Yeah it's pretty fun to try and think of what they saw, to write it in such a weird way. Maybe Loki's eagle suit was a jet pack or something. perhaps the jotuns eagle form was just a small ship. or maybe it is all fiction, that someone who was bored wrote one day.
Just wait untill the one where Thor marries a Jotun while dressed as Freia (or some other goddess , I can't remember) and then goes full red wedding on everyone. Classic.
@Drakon590 three abrahamic death-cult Islam Judaism Christianity all started with in one city be in Jerusalem. These three religions were tribal religions who we're really only intended to be practiced by people who lived in the area the religions spread through Slaughter Conquest and actual bigotry consider in the three religions have outright lead wiped out entire population centers. But let's talk about bigotry because I called out your b******* religion. Muhammad was a pedophile Jesus was a delusional schizophrenic who traveled with a prostitute in 12 single men likely a mass or G group Judaism is even more batshit crazy as it was started by a schizophrenic who heard inanimate objects talking to him with regularity.
@@christinewebber7924 What a bunch of bullshit you just said trying to sound smart. Honestly, the best of humility is to shut up when you don't know about a subject and is being biased, so please, do it and be a person of humility.
I swear Norse mythology feels like a long weed trip at times or stories told only by drunk men at a bar. You have no idea what or why the fuck things are happening, but you want to keep listening.
@RavnDream well you can eat everything that is fresh and raw, except chicken. İf your grandparents ate raw flesh their whole life, then you should not have any problem doing the same thing. You would get used to it eventually.
This tale is evidence that Thjazi and Idunn are the equivalents to Hades and Persephone, and Cú Raoi Mac Dáire and Bláthnat in irish legends. Basically, the God who rules the underworld (Thjazi, Cú Raoi, Sucellus and Hades) kidnaps the goddess of seasons (Idunn, Bláthnat, Nantosuelta, Persephone) thus creating an unbalance in nature. The god of the underworld faces someone who opposes such kidnapping (Cú Chulainn, Loki) but overwhelms him or her, and still takes the goddess to his realm.
"Marvel ruined Norse Mythology" Meanwhile this story sounds like a group of drunk DnD players fucking around. And I say this in the most positive way possible, I loved the story.
Oh Loki. You never cease to amaze me
Lesson: To impress a girl, play tug of war with a goat using your plums.
BJs aren't that good
🤣🤣🤣
Please can I do that???
I wanna see the MCU have loki proform that tug-o-war against a goat in the next avengers
Reality: death in 5min
I wonder if Marvel will ever use that goat part in a movie
they never did

Baldur survives Ragnarak because Loki hid him in Hel. It was a necessary part of the plan.
He is the unpredictable force of Change, which often brings hardship, but always has the capacity to make those hardships sources of extraordinary treasure that would otherwise not be accessed.

The funny thing is Odin is every part a trickster god himself, just less chaotically so,
and this is the story of how a bird ruined the family picnic...
And how Loki got it going, again.
He attacc
He protecc
But most importantly
He brought Idunn bacc
But mor importantly than that
He played tug-o-war wih his sacc
Dam it Loki.
Thiazi: I'm a talking eagle who can do magic. The Aesir: That doesn't seem suspicious at all.
7:31 Are you implying there's something relatable about tugging on a goat with your testicles?
Have you seen the shit people do on TH-cam?
Jasc Random Good point.
"Loki tied one end of a rope around the beard of a goat," Mhmm?

They must have been on some good shit to write all of these weird ass stories
Lost Marimo but hey old religions are weird af

Beer, Mjød and a sh*tload of magic mushrooms.

Imagine being the first ancient proto- Norse guy to come up with all these wacky stories
They develop over time...
More possible then the abrahamic death cult mythologies

Only Nordic gods become perplexed when they cant cook xD

Are you going to do a series on Japanese mythology, it's a little similar to Norse, their God's seem a little more human than others.
I'm fairly certain the Japanese had more than one god.
Skadi 💍❤
Loki's rep in the wider public consciousness - master schemer and manipulator
Actual Loki - the haver of the worst ideas and even worse luck

"Must make her decision based solely on the god's feet." Finally something for the foot fetishists.
Can you do one on Freyr? Prior to a lot of his functions being absorbed into Odin?
I thought Santa Monica Studios was going for the popular Trap look by giving Heimdall gold teeth, but turns out that’s out of his lord 😂❤
I love the Wagner music playing in the background!
Just a quick question, have you done any videos on Greek history/mythology yet?
The Drunken Coward the closest thing he has worked on is his cthulu mythos i believe he hasn't done much else related to mythology or greak mythology
at least loki ended up having kids :,)
Idunn is like Hebe
Yeah except i think Idunn has apples while Hebe has a fountain(?)
and they are both married to gods that are the sons of the chief god like bragi> odin heraclees> zeus
The gods can die of old age?
Good think they only use a lower case g
NOTIFICATION SQUAD?!!!!!;
Why is Loki even allowed in asgard with all the shit he causes
So Skadi wasn't trick into killing her father in the actual myth.
What is it with giants demanding to marry goddesses in Norse Mythology?
Hail Odin!
Still a better- awww
The Norse pantheon is filled to human for these type of Gods wonder what else they have human flaws
try saying it like iidun with a long i instead off iddunn
, otherwise great vid
Better dead than red Glad I wasnt alobe in noticing that xD
Nice profile pic i like the yellow
so this is the story that rick riordan take reference for magnus chase.. haha Idk why but this stories a bit absurd to me
yeah, he talk about njord on the 3rd book, but not with the loki's tug of war
Yo-tun-hime God fuck.
Eth is an th sound not d
Yaaaaaaaayyyyyy!
Isn't it sad & ridiculous that the Norse gods depend on a fruit to remain young & powerful while the Greek gods are just straight up immortal?
Indeed, they look down on mortals they have no idea how monstrous mortals can be why would we want to worship these so-called deities?
Not really. Its fictional and interesting to learn about
Well if you count kratos, no there not. But yes Greek gods are a lot more stronger then norse.
They're not, though. They were because of Ambrosia. They even made Heracles and Psyche immortals also by feeding the stuff to them.
The Greek gods depend on their holy ambrosia and nectar
Su ta smoking hood
Her name is pronounced like the christian eden.
Close edoon would be a modern pernunciation
He mispronounced alot of names, but ibet he's doing better than you are me,
It's actually pronounced 'eh-thunn', and the 'th' is prounounced like th in the word that.
"Marvel ruined Norse Mythology"

And I say this in the most positive way possible, I loved the story.
Neil Gaiman has no business speaking of Norse or any European lore. That which he has put forth should be warily dissected.

Loki... You never cease to amaze me
