In this soft spoken ASMR video, I tell you stories from Norse Mythology and explanations about its context and meaning to the Old Norse.
Stories include the discovery of the runes and the loss of an eye by Odin, the war between the Aesir and the Vanir, the construction of the wall of Asgard, the creation of the World, and Ragnarok, the end of times.
We will meet all sorts of gods and creatures: Odin, Thor, Freya, Freyr, Njord, Tyr, Loki, Heimdall, Mimir, the Norns, Ymir, Fenrir, Jormungand, and many more, across the 9 worlds: Asgard, Midgard, Jotunheim, Vanaheim, Niflheim, Muspelheim, Alfheim, Svartalfheim and Hel.

We're sleeping in the halls of Valhalla tonight boys!
Wait are we gonna die?
😭i dont wanna die
FOR ODIN!!!!
There is no sleep in Valhalla only food, drinks and battle until ragnarok when we will fight till the end. If we somehow survive (Wich we wont) We shall do so as a reward of our honor.
Odin is with us
I’d learn so much and be so smart if I could stay awake more than 5 minutes.
Ha the time stamps are so helpful!
Haha soooo true!!
But that's why we are here for. To learn because we cant sleep and boom out like a light
Omelette de fromage
“Omelet... with cheese”
This brings me back to my gramma telling me the sagas! She would start out in English and then slowly slip into Icelandic. She passed away in 2019 from breast cancer, I’m convinced that she’s in Valhalla! Thank you so much for this and bringing back memories ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I hope you're doing well
hopefully not
Some say that those who commit suicide end up in Valhal because they were in a war with themselves, so it would make sense that those in battle with their bodies would also find themselves in the halls of Vahal! Tho that said, Folkvangr sounds more appealing to me, very beautiful and you aren't expecting to give your life fighting in Ragnarok at the end.
Same.. but in Norweigan slang
This will become one of your most watched videos! maybe even surpass the greek stories...
I wish! I also hope it's going to be popular, so I put extra care in the script, I bought new props and I spent an insane amount of time on editing. We'll see if it pays off 🙈
It will. Its entertaining and relaxing.
I can’t get enough Norse mythology.
@@TheFrenchWhispererASMR reading your words I hear them in your voice 😄
The French whisperer... You are a master of sleepytime tales! God bless your talents ❤
When I hear his voice, I feel like I’m sitting at a campfire with a Khajiit caravan while they tell fantastical stories outside of far away lands.
Oh wow, that's rly accurate ngl.
Frenchman has wares if you have coin
Accurate
I'm so happy that you open with the runes and Odin's eye. Seeing the runes at Maeshowe in Orkney blew me away and lead me on a journey of fascination with them. I've only just started watching but the quality of this video is already fantastic. Props, audio, vocals, visuals; all sublime. Thank you.
"I have bills to pay, but it's still a really good app" Hahaha ! L'honnêteté !
Literally on my 5th playthrough of God of War so great timing here! Listening to this while rowing around the lake of the nine is the game plan when I get bored.
I feel so cool when i hear any reference to norse mythology somewhere and i get it because i played so much gow😭
I have secretly been hoping you'd do this video, ever since the Greek stories. Your care and dedication shows. We are so lucky. Thank you.
Ah yes this will certainly fuel my Valheim addiction even more
The accuracy and details you gave made my husband and I happy to listen to your telling. You are a wonderful storyteller (a title that is quite important to us since stories are how our knowledge is passed on to each generation). I do not know which pantheon you follow, but may your god/goddess or gods continue to show you favor.
Thanks to the French Whisperer... I’m actually able to shut off my over active monkey mind and go to sleep. Been listening over a year now. Thank you!
My father believes he was a Viking in one of his past lives. He’s always believed that and felt as if he knew what it felt to be one which is really cool. He’s part Scandinavian which means I am too, reading about Norse culture and the stories about their gods is so interesting. My mother thinks she was a shield maiden that fought aside with my father because they both feel like soulmates. It was love at first sight, they lived in the same area and worked at the same building, just a few floors apart from eachother. They both feel that they were together in a past life and that they fought together as Vikings. They watched the series Vikings multiple times and got me into watching it too. It’s so interesting with how they fought and how they survived back then. Learning the alphabet in runes stayed in my mind and I can pretty much read a full paragraph in runes! Being part Scandinavian is amazing and the fact that one of my ancestors could possibly be Ragnarok or Odin themselves gives me so much confidence and bravery. I really want to learn more about Norse and when I came across this video, it made me so happy that I could fall asleep to the stories about some of my ancestors and how they had to live. Thank you so much for this video❤️
Ragnarok isn't a person like Odin... so you can't rly say your ancestors were Ragnarok tho you could guess that some fought in it? I certainly doubt you were descended from Odin himself tho heh, that would be quite a stretch.
Actual swedish person here, you and your parents are weirdos….. how dare you compare yourself to Gods and justify it by saying you are ”part Scandinavian”, I’m all for appreciation but you are just weird and need to back off
I’m descended from the saxons (first Vikings) in Germany on my German side, and the later Vikings from mixing after the invasions into England, on my English side. I believe I also have Swedish from my maternal line, through my grandmothers father. It was mentioned only once in passing.
If you have the right bloodline, Germanic, or from a known mixed english area, or are Scandinavian, then you have Viking blood. (Almost?) everyone in Scandinavia is Viking. It’s not some mythical thing in the past, they were real people and conquered areas, plundered, settled, taxed. What you wouldn’t know is what specifically your ancestors were.
I’d suggest reading what the Roman’s said about the Germanic people they interacted with and see if it describes your family. I was nearly laughing as they may as well have been describing my dad, myself and my elder son.
I have never been more ready for an ASMR video in my LIFE!
Wait, so a horse, *ahem*, "took advantage" of Loki, Loki gave birth to an eight legged horse and then Odin rode it 🤣
If you think that is funny, you need to hear the story about the bet to make a woman laugh, and Loki and the goat.
Neil Gaiman retells this story in his book Norse Mythology. And I wish Marvel Studios would film this with Hiddleston and Hemsworth.
Oh my god that would be great haha! I'll check out the stories
No, Loke willingly fucked the horse so the Giant couldn't finish the wall lol
Noooo don't say it out loud or Loki will get mad!
Sometimes I'm just half awake listening to this while having amazing dreams
This is perfect for me when I’m playing assassins creed Valhalla
Or Valheim? :)
@@hannahh8696 nah I’m playing aoe2 Vikings
@@furretthefuzzynoodle3896 Such a great game.
& god of war :)
Epic game
My favorite history. I am Swedish and i love vikings and asgardian mythology
It’s Scandinavian or Norse mythology, it’s supposedly from Norway not Asgardian.
@@redacted588 Both Norway and Sweden are norse though. Some norse mythology is even from Germany
Vanir stories are not as interesting to you as Asgardian? All Norse mythology is interesting not just the Aesir stories!
@@felixhenson9926 no i like the vanir stories aswell
@@forturet4115 correct. Even the german part saxony believed in asatru in around the year 760
I know you probably have your own stories planned out already but could you do Slavic mythology, or maybe a review on what people in like 1900 thought the future would look like now?
Leave it to a Frenchman to be in this many beds at once.
All jokes aside, honestly love the content, please keep it up! Thank you!
Lmao!
Best comment.
I love falling asleep/waking up to the atmospheric nature sounds that you keep on for a couple hours at the end of your videos. Especially love that they correspond with the theme of the stories/video and builds an environment that feels so immersive. I hope you keep adding them! Thank you for sharing your storytelling creations with us, they are absolutely wonderful ❤
Goodness French Whisperer. Just riveting. I play your videos for my three year old daughter at bedtime. She stayed awake for the first hour of this story tonight, usually your velvet vocals lull her to sleep in 15 minutes. Your talents have helped calm us these past few nights while she’s battled a cold. Can’t wait to finish the stories and fall asleep myself. Your work is precious, I hope you know. 💕
The timing of this video couldn't have been more perfect for me.
Same here! Just got done watching Thor and was trying to explain all of this stuff to my dad!
Thor? Lol more like Vikings or Something of the sort 🤣😂
It's the Valheim Viking craze. Seems every channel I'm subbed to is doing Viking stuff.
I feel like my subconscious knows all this stuff I listen to after I fall asleep.
Somebody send this guy the answers for my semester exams
Usually ASMR doesn’t really put me to sleep, but there was no arguing with this one.
I know you do these for sleep (the calm sounds afterwards are great for that) but this is the best way to teach history. All my classmates always fell asleep in the first 5 mins of class, so nothing new, but history gives me severe anxiety (even though I deeply desire learning it) and your presentation really helps me learn and keep me relaxed and calm. You are very much appreciated. I know it wasn’t your original purpose but you’re meeting a different need in the world too. I hope you continue to prosper. Thank you for your work!
YES YES YESSSS I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS STORIES. I read them in Norse Mythology books from the library ALL the time and to hear them being recited by your calming voice is a true blessing. 😭❤️
I am so so so happy and excited to listen to this tonight!!! I look forward to going to bed...and I agree with the person who said "I would be so smart if I could stay awake for more than 5 minutes"....sooooo true!!! You are sooo great!! Best asmr artist of all time!!
Norse and Greek mythology are definitely the 2 most interesting mythologies in my opinion. So I’m really excited to listen to this!!!
Another perfect topic? It’s like he loves us ❤️😭
This gives me better appreciation for American Gods season 1
The show was good but the book is better.
This came at a great time! I've been diving back into Norse mythology again, and also your videos are so good at helping me sleep without needing earbuds in. Equally soothing with or without, so my ears get a break 💛
Please explain to me youngsters need of sound to fall asleep.
Can't you endure silence and thoughts even when you are to fall asleep and rest your mind and sences?
I am absolutely obsessed with fantasy-
I'm so glad these video's exist! thank you!
I love your work and amazing efforts to bring such high-quality ASMR videos for us to enjoy!!
This is much appreciated. I’m writing a TV show with Norse mythOlogy at the center of it so this was very helpful
LOVING YOUR NARRATIVE VOICE!♥️ ME, MY Daughter and Granddaughter ARE SO GLAD WE'VE FOUND YOU... (THE VOICE)!!! THAT'S WHAT WE'VE NAMED YOU... HOPE YOU DON'T MIND!
I love the Greek, Celtic and Norse mythology stories ☺️ amazing video again
Oh my god I’m so excited for bed so I can listen to this!!!
THANK YOU for saying Norse and not “Viking!” As a Scandinavian it infuriates me when people say something is “Viking”, equating it to a culture or ethnicity and thereby perpetuating stereotypes. Not all Norse were vikings and not all vikings were Norse. I love your content!
Norse warriors might’ve appeared similar to Vikings but were quite different.
I was literally just thinking that I was in a French Whisperer mood tonight and then I saw you posted!!! 😍 perfection ✨
Love it! Excited to launch into this epic video and share with my mythology obsessed little one, who is my Mini Loki.
You know this is a sublime listening experience, no?
I love your wisdom, investigations, voice and your heart. For me the souls of fire is not relaxing. I love a campfire. A fire to em warm and protect me. And don’t have any cognitive fears of fire but I don’t find it relaxing when I’m thankfully listening to you put me to sleep. I’m sure many do find it relaxing. I live near volcanoes in Guatemala and maybe that is part of why i actually start and need to turn it off. I’m working thru it tho. Consciously allowing the crackling fire to be ok in my psych. You are a blessing. So know that!
I've just found your channel, I've subscribed because I've immediately fallen in love with your voice, I can't wait for bed time tonight, to fall asleep with you, I mean with your beautiful voice, oh my goodness, much love and virtual hugs, from Lynda, here in the UK 🇬🇧 💖💖
Perfection yet again! How beautiful this is! Thanks once again for another magical ASMR journey~ You’re still the best on TH-cam 🌹🙏🏼🌹
Yes! I've been waiting for another one like this since the Nibelung video. Thank you!!
My teacher had a whole unit on Norse mythology in my Honors English class in high school. I was fascinated by these stories at the time, and am so happy to revisit them.
Oh my gosh I was just looking for more Norse/Germanic mythology on your channel yesterday. Such a coincidence.
Thank you for posting! I hope you do some more of these.
Thank you for this. It takes me a while to fall asleep so having something this long to listen to is really helpful and relaxing
The sounds on this and vocals are truly soothing and hypnotic. Love it! (and Slumber). 💜
This is perfect. I love Norse Mythology
The French whisperer... You are a master of sleepytime tales! God bless your talents ❤
Soo happy to fall asleep to Ragnarok, one of my favorites!!!
Thanks French Whisper you keep my brain stimulated while I'm working on many things.
Just started and already I'm loving the bowl of apples! I'm fascinated by all mythology so these vids are easily my favourite!
Neil Gaimen’s book on Norse Mythology is honestly one of my favorite reads I heavily encourage more people to check it out
Great audiobook here on youtube too, love falling asleep to it
It's a good one
American Gods is a good one too even though Norse Mythology is a loose retelling of the mythology. Anything Gaiman writes is worth the read.
Your videos are incredible. I have never seen anything like them before. Thank you for everything you put into these works of art.
Wow this is an amazing surprise! Buzzing to listen to this tonight, thank you for your excellent work as always!
Mr Francais, I have never been able to shut my stupid brain up. Since I found this channel I get to sleep so much faster. Merci. Merci.
Playing Assassins creed Valhalla right now and this is a great addition to my journey with Eivor trough Mercia, Wessex and Lundun. 👍
I really want to start listening during the day.
I’ve been waiting a long time for this one! Thank you!
I’ll see y’all in Valhalla.
Oh my god. FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE HAS RESEARCHED RAGNAROK
Thank you for reading these stories. I plan on making a 4 soap stories box around Norse legends and you inspire me. Maybe ill send you the first prototype!
Oustanding work as always, and the perfect companion for my Valheim binging!
I'm a witch and I'm now trying to begin my relationship with odin. This has been a blessing with perfect timing! Thanks for your hard work, the quality is amazing and your storytelling is captivating. 🤗🤗🤗
Love your other mythology videos so it’s nice to hear you talk about the mythology of my ancestors
I love this one so much. I wish you would do another like this.
This is extremely relaxing, it's insane 🥴
This is everything I’ve been waiting for
I love sleep stories! The scenery of this was fantastic!
Going to watch this while playing some Valheim tonight!
My inner Viking is calling and I love it
Great timing for this, with the current explosion of Valheim gamers ;)
Thank you SO much. I had the first proper night's sleep in 3 weeks, thanks to listening to this. Please talk me to sleep every night.
Thank you for telling the sagas
Skal 🍻
Currently playing the Norse saga of god of war so this is making things make so much more sense 😂 thank you!
You are the best among all ASMR channels! Hopefully you never sell out to TH-cam commercials because that will deny the ASMR purpose of these videos.
I really enjoyed this. I came here for the ASMR but stayed for the story. It was really nice..
Many of us come to channels like this to soothe our troubled minds. God bless you and your Grandson.
This is AMAZING. Working my night job and just discovered this. I can't wait to fall asleep after work listening to this!! Thank you and may the gods bless you. ❤
Loved this! Would love to see some more on this topic
Jumped right out of bed when I saw this had been uploaded.
He did it! And damn, that table is 😙👌🏻. Let's watch this.
These stories always give me such colorful dreams
I'm ready to listen to this every night for the next year, super excited 😊 Santé et merci beaucoup!!
Qqqqu
Ok you got me
Sleeping and learning is definitely not a deal I would miss
I was so excited about the topic I actually missed what you said during the first couple of minutes. Starting over now😄
I’m so happy you did this I LOVE Norse mythology, unfortunately we don’t learn much about it in school here in Sweden (at least not where I’m from) and it’s such a shame. All me and my friends know we kinda had to look up ourselves to get deeper into it.
I love the part about innengaards and utengaards. Today we say roughly the same, "innafor" og "utafor" meaning the exact same thing!!
Was listening on Spotify but came here to comment.
I love how throughly you do your research before posting! I feel like I'm actually learning a lot, whenever I don't fall asleep from listening!
Perfect I've been obsessed with with the show vikings
I only just had this come up on my suggestions and it’s brilliant. Chefs kiss.
Super excited to listen to this
My favourite topic by my favourite asmrtist I’m hyped
I love your accent and voice! So soothing!
Beautiful! Thank you 🖤🖤🖤
sick!!! really in love with this
I watch these videos during the day as well as night because, at night, I fall asleep after 20 minutes usually :) Thank you so much Marie, for everything. Would you ever consider doing some videos about some very famous, wealthy families like the one who Vanderbilts, The Rothschilds, The Romanovs etc. Another cool guy was the richest man, on earth once too. He was the King Mansa Musa of Ethiopia. One time, he spent and shared, so much gold in Cairo that he bankrupted their economy! It took them almost 10 years to stabilise their economy after that. It's said, that he even offered to buy back some of their gold, to help them. It is also said, that his travelling caravans were so long, that you couldn't see the end of them, with the naked eye! In other words, he had so many helpers, trunks of clothing, foods, gold etc that, they were miles long! His story is fascinating. Another thing I came across recently was the ancient Empire of Silla from South Korea. It lasted over 900 years and is the longest recorded empire, in the world. I never heard of that Empire. I was googling to - Empires of Asia and that was one, that came up. I was wondering if you had heard of it. It became very rich because of its 'association with the Silk Road. Thank you for everything. You're voice helps to ease my anxiety and puts me to sleep, every night. God bless, stay safe, much love from Ireland xx
My favorite video by far! Love Viking/Norse mythology, so interesting and somewhat underrated!
I agree, I don't know what it is about Norse mythology but there is something strangely special about it.
Perfect timing! Many thanks 😊
I love your voice and videos! I feel smarter event tho I do fall asleep! Thank you for taking time to make videos just for us to relax and enjoy your beautiful voice and everything you do!! We appreciate you!
