"There sits the only king I mean to bend my knee to". That whole speech gives me goosebumps. For a fleeting moment in the series the north is the fiercest part of Westeros and the Greatjon is the fiercest man in the north.
“We'll shove our swords up Tywin Lannister's bunghole soon enough, begging your pardons, and then it's on to the Red Keep to free Ned.” - Greatjon Umber
I loved the Umbers in the books, such as shame that they made Smalljon an oathbreaker after his father was loyal to House Stark. I also don't know why they didn't use Greatjon after season 1. The actor who played him did a great job... Not as big as he should be but still I loved him.
Worse than Bad P***y, worse than no zig zag is Smalljon Umber saying he would have killed his own father if he hadn't have gotten himself killed in the war!!! That line INFURIATED me that DnD could so disrespect one of the most epic characters in ASOIAF for the sake of plot convenience! I almost had a heart attack when my boy, Barristan Selmy, went down in season 5 for the same reason, but this was completely unforgivable for what they did to the Umbers! Anyway, sweet Rawrist, thanks for giving me a forum to vent.
Jon "Greatjon" Umber, one of the most toughest characters in ASOIAF. I loved Clive Mantle's portrayal of him in the show. Such a shame he wasn't able to come back for the second season and Greatjon just ended up getting cut. Great video!
Damn, if they don't bring back Great Jon in the show or books, I will be pissed. I wonder if he had been sober at the red wedding how many more Frey's he would of taken down?
You gotta love the Umbers. Book Umbers that is. Roose is fucked. TGNC is starting to take shape. Umbers are lurking with their reserve army, and soon, The Greatjon will be Unleashed.
WHAT AN ABSOLUTE UNIT Also, I'm just waiting for Greatjon's jailbreak in The Winds of Winter as he rides north to declare Jon Snow, legitimized by Robb in front of Greatjon as Robb's heir, the new King in the North. Also, that'd mean that Hother would no longer have to deal with the Boltons, meaning that the Umber forces would no longer be divided.
Awesome vid, easily one of the Top 10 greatest ASOIAF supporting characters. His uncles are pretty awesome too & I can't wait to see what Mors & Hothers true plans for the Boltons are. It sucks the show couldn't bring him back for the Red Wedding & at least shown his death but also had him take down like 4 Freys with him. Even the Smalljon on the show was likable & badass as hell, other than the not so likable choices the show made for his character, he was still the dude I almost was rooting for haha
gotta give him props only man after the rebellion that seems to correctly point out that. yeah fuck the claiments it was the targs we owed fealty to. I swear it was Robert and neds friendship along with Jon arryn and the marriage that kept the real for so long.
well, when i get a girl, ill cut off some fingers. nothing seems to inspire loyalty... the 2 most loyal men, are davos and great jon, and both had som fingers cut....
I feel like if GreatJon would have treated with Renly; Renly would still be alive, they would have teamed up with Robb, Robb would still be alive because he wouldn't need the Frey's. Like the whole thing would be completely different. GreatJon would have choked shadow Stannis out with his meaty arm and then be like "alright, let's get the fuck outta here."
There is no one better than you at this when you get down and serious. Also there is no one better than you at this when you get down and crazy! Love your vids so much. Thank you.
I hate how nobody ever has him on top 10 fighters. He’s is stated to be the on the levels of the hound in fighting and levels of Robert baratheons strength. Definitely my favorite character
I know they tone the magical and legendary items down in the show to appeal more to the average audience but sometimes my book readers heart breaks a bit when the swords look plain or the eyes aren't purple of Daario's beard isn't multicoloured. I also like to yell ''KING IN THE NORTH!''
Just wanted to tell you that I love your videos, I've listened to 95% of them. You have great knowledge and a very good voice which is important. Thank you and I look forward to more :-) PS - Where do you get your info other than the main books and show?
I believe the Number sigil is a bit of foreshadowing. A giant held in chains on a red field. Greatjon was bound up in chains by men durinf the red wedding, yet still, he managed to fight in them before his death.
Greatjon, despite his faults this is a man you want with you in war. His manner strikes me as a perfect First Sergeant. He does everything to improve the quality of the army, but does not lead as an officer. Good man.
rawist incase you didn't kno I'm talking about the show the book made a lot more sense that the show has when it came to this situation with the umbers betraying the starks
I am so old i remember the music at the end of this video from the B-side of a 45 record from Blood, Sweat, & Tears. th-cam.com/video/GreaN1ljqGY/w-d-xo.html
rawist Idk if you have made one yet if you have I've missed it I looked I've watched all your videos so I think you aint. anywa h ide love it if you would make a theory video about why small Jon betrayed rickon, Jon and sansa after his father was so loyal to ned and rob? that's just bothered me because small Jon wasn't scared of Ramsey so fear didn't make him turn to a pussy.. idk ide just like to see another opinion not to mention I like your voice which makes it better to listen to haha..
I feel like if they try to ransom that kinda character, you just think "i mean im sure he'll break out eventually, and hes expensive to feed, lets wait 3 weeks and see if theyre still confident"
He´s nice, but the best northener is Lord Manderly, he doesn´t even live in the north, but he is just amazing, they way he despises the Freys is just...He´s like the Lyanna Mormont of the books for me.
at the Red Wedding Merett Frey and Petyr Frey have to get The Greatjon drunk so he can`t fight and they play a drinking game but they both pass out after that Ser Leslyn Haigh one of Walder`s son-in-laws tries to subdue the Greatjon but he bits off Leslyn`s ear
"There sits the only king I mean to bend my knee to". That whole speech gives me goosebumps. For a fleeting moment in the series the north is the fiercest part of Westeros and the Greatjon is the fiercest man in the north.
And he caused the stark’s downfall
@@tuthiii The irony wasn't lost on me.
Make Jon Great Again!
lmao 😘
I bet you he built that wall and had the wildlings pay for it

“We'll shove our swords up Tywin Lannister's bunghole soon enough, begging your pardons, and then it's on to the Red Keep to free Ned.” - Greatjon Umber
*sniffle* Truly up there with the works of Shakespeare.
Yessss! One of my favorite Northmen; loud, cordial, loyal and one hell of a beast in battle
It's hard not to love Greajon. *THE KING IN THE NORTH!!*
Rawrist
*DA KING IN DA NORF*
*STARK! STARK! STARK!*
Hes the opposite of a Bolton lol.
The whole UMBER CLAN is AWESOME..... I don't think the show did them justice but I we have the books!!!!
House Umber, he's not Mountain Clansman
I loved the Umbers in the books, such as shame that they made Smalljon an oathbreaker after his father was loyal to House Stark. I also don't know why they didn't use Greatjon after season 1. The actor who played him did a great job... Not as big as he should be but still I loved him.
Agreed. Show Smalljon made me sad.
The actor who played in the show have problems with the producers and they got him out of the show. He was supossed to be in seasons 2 and 3.
@@AlboMarxista I read he had scheduling conflicts, although he wasn't a fan of the minus 22 degrees during filming in Belfast.

dorsal 2008 and now house umber is gone with the “umber kid”
I freaking loved this. Great, great video.
The show's portrayal of House Umber hurt my soul.
Mine too :( No Smalljon...just no.
The Great Jon Lives!!!
he has Rickon, Robb's will and Lord Eddard's bones........The North Remembers!!!......it is known!!
bastard Stark DireCrow Ouuuhh sweet summer child
Jon "Greatjon" Umber, one of the most toughest characters in ASOIAF. I loved Clive Mantle's portrayal of him in the show. Such a shame he wasn't able to come back for the second season and Greatjon just ended up getting cut. Great video!
Rick Grimes from the Comic Series I wanted to see him smashing Freys at the Red Wedding like in the books
Damn, if they don't bring back Great Jon in the show or books, I will be pissed. I wonder if he had been sober at the red wedding how many more Frey's he would of taken down?
Marcus Drake he would have pulled Walder's head off
Greatjon was such a badass! Loved him in the books and what was shown in the TV series
You gotta love the Umbers. Book Umbers that is.
Roose is fucked. TGNC is starting to take shape. Umbers are lurking with their reserve army, and soon, The Greatjon will be Unleashed.
ARE YOU TOUCHED, BOY????
This is a fabulous insult. People should say it more.
Just not around Church youth groups.
Rawrist plp
Matthew Browne Ouch! That hurt. XD
"Call me boy again..."
WHAT AN ABSOLUTE UNIT
Also, I'm just waiting for Greatjon's jailbreak in The Winds of Winter as he rides north to declare Jon Snow, legitimized by Robb in front of Greatjon as Robb's heir, the new King in the North.

Even the Smalljon on the show was likable & badass as hell, other than the not so likable choices the show made for his character, he was still the dude I almost was rooting for haha
"His brothers"? You mean uncles?
I try to be as close to my friends as Greatjon is to Rob, but whenever I tell my dog to bite off their fingers they freak out and call animal control.
gotta give him props only man after the rebellion that seems to correctly point out that. yeah fuck the claiments it was the targs we owed fealty to. I swear it was Robert and neds friendship along with Jon arryn and the marriage that kept the real for so long.
Really enjoyed this one Rawrist. Good stuff.
Greatjon should be freed soon in the books...hope to see him again ...curious to see if he's still as loyal to house Stark as he always professed
Ryan Thugest His son was treacherous murdered by the Frey/Bolton traitors. Stark or no Stark, he'll want bloody vengeance!
I like to imagine Greatjon Umber is still attacking his cell.
This is such an amazing , useful and proper summary of character .
Great Jon Umber is the Chadliest of Northern Chads
As big of a badass that he is, it's his loyalty that makes him so endearing.
Awesome vid as always thank you *_Rawr_* :D
Yay! Thanks for watching
Great video, you can hear it in your voice that you love the character :D
*sniffle* Greatjon will rise and see a Stark in Winterfell again! ❥
There there little one, of course he will :)
The guy who played great Jon played Jon little in the Robin on sherwood tv show
Unfortunately GreatJon wasn't in the show after season 1, one of the best Northmen.
Another great vid!
And then show Smalljon went to the dark side. :(
you should do a video on black fish
Very good video! I could watch these all day
Thank you :)
You're the best Rawrist!
Merry Christmas Rawrist, your fans love you. Some of it's creepy love, and some of it's the good stuff. Happy holidays.
THANK YOU FOR DOING GREAT JOHNS VIDEOS 😁💞
Jon "Greatjon" Umber: THE KING OF THE NORTH. My favorite part where he yells that.
Can't wait for the Brynden Tully video! Great work as always :)
He was just a green boy like Umber said.
So green he pissed grass!
I honestly can't wait for WoW... GREAT video, I hope that the Umbers don't douche out in the books, the way they did in the show😃
I hope he will return in the show and the books
well, when i get a girl, ill cut off some fingers. nothing seems to inspire loyalty... the 2 most loyal men, are davos and great jon, and both had som fingers cut....
that tune that you use in the end... I heard that before.. playing SWTOR in Planet HOTH, or is extremley similar
Great vid as always :). Love the great Jon
"STARK! STARK! STARK! KING IN THE NORTH!" I'd invite him to any party.
The fact you used gymnopedie #1 to end this video earned a liked from me :)
Man, I can’t imagine the shame and humiliation the Greatjon felt in his cell, tormented by the thought that he had failed to protect his king.
Loved the vid and all your content! Will this be a series ??? Because it could help defiantly with our GoT/ASOIAF withdrawal!
Yup! I'll be doing more history videos. :)
I feel like if GreatJon would have treated with Renly; Renly would still be alive, they would have teamed up with Robb, Robb would still be alive because he wouldn't need the Frey's. Like the whole thing would be completely different. GreatJon would have choked shadow Stannis out with his meaty arm and then be like "alright, let's get the fuck outta here."
There is no one better than you at this when you get down and serious. Also there is no one better than you at this when you get down and crazy! Love your vids so much. Thank you.
Aww, thank you very much. :)
Greatjon focking Umber!
Great Jon is bae ❤️😍
Great Jon is the best, shame the butcher him and his house in the show. UMBERS 4 LIFE
I hate how nobody ever has him on top 10 fighters. He’s is stated to be the on the levels of the hound in fighting and levels of Robert baratheons strength. Definitely my favorite character
Another great vid, really enjoyed this one
I'm glad and thank you :)
very informative as always.
Thanks for watching :)
Cat suggesting that Roose Bolton take command of a large part of the northern army is another big brain move by Cat 🙄
Gymnopédie at the end? I love this channel more and more.
haha, glad someone appreciated it. :)
I always love these videos. I'm trying to figure out where I have heard the piano piece from the outro.
When will you post your House Umber video?
Every time I say a date, I fuck up. So I will say this Wednesday at 12PM PT but don't get mad if that's a lie. I'll try my best though.
Can you do a video on Patchface and his prophecies?
Love all ur vids
😍
I know they tone the magical and legendary items down in the show to appeal more to the average audience but sometimes my book readers heart breaks a bit when the swords look plain or the eyes aren't purple of Daario's beard isn't multicoloured.
I also like to yell ''KING IN THE NORTH!''
not even a grumpkin or a snark!
Thunder Clap They're not mythical!
Lizardlions = Crocodile
Shadowcats = Panthers
Cavebear = need I say it?
Just wanted to tell you that I love your videos, I've listened to 95% of them. You have great knowledge and a very good voice which is important.
Thank you and I look forward to more :-)
PS - Where do you get your info other than the main books and show?
I believe the Number sigil is a bit of foreshadowing. A giant held in chains on a red field. Greatjon was bound up in chains by men durinf the red wedding, yet still, he managed to fight in them before his death.
Hahaha it is funny how you mimic Great Jon's cheering.
The Greatjon's actor HAD an ear bitten off. I bet I think that coincidence is more awesome than he thinks it is.
The Greatjon is one of my favorite characters
I love Greatjon in the book! So funny 😅
"What do they know of the wall, or the wolfswood? EVEN THEIR GODS ARE WRONG!"
Crazily, Clive Mantle who played Greatjon actually had part of his ear bitten off when he was assaulted in a hotel back in 2013!
Will you be doing more of these?
Yup!
awesome!
Rawrist is the true queen of Westeros.
What if I'm actually the Night's King come again? D:
Why does everything Catelyn do back fire on the Stark? Secret lil finger agent?
He is that loud and obnoxious friend, but you love him still... and strangely because he is loud and obnoxious.
haha, pretty much. :)
Yep.
Wait...he's as big as a giant?
rAWRIST MY LADY I CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU AT CON OF THRONES
GreatJon is the best hypeman
Greatjon, despite his faults this is a man you want with you in war. His manner strikes me as a perfect First Sergeant. He does everything to improve the quality of the army, but does not lead as an officer. Good man.
Pfft.... What faults?? Greatjon is perfection.
He wont lead as an officer, he'll lead the fookin van!!!

Gods what a legend!
Another great vid truly in love with ur videos if you please do one on Ser Barristan Selmy I would be over the moon! Getting friends to sub to you.
Barristan Selmy is my book crush. And thank you!
Rawrist No Problem. One of the channels where I squeal when a video is uploaded ❤️😊
Him needing 8 men to hold him down at the red wedding is sucha funny thing 😅😅😅
God damn I miss GreatJon!
The Greatjon is the one of the few characters the TV series really didn't do justice to.
Black fish graet john stanis Ned are my fervorite chrachters
You have to love the big lug lol
The great uncle Umber. Lol

What happened to great John in the show?
Are there any plans for a house Glover video ?
Yup!
can't wait, their my favourite northern house :)
Who wins? Mountain or Umbeezy?
Greatjon is the Mountain of Stark.
All hail "Da king inda norf!"
*DA KING IN DA NORF!*

Lord Manderly lives in the north.
Yeah. The Greatjon is the man.
The Starks has the biggest land mass in the 7 kingdom and 1 princedom. They could to without less territory
i want to see him fight
I bet Renly would've loved him some GreatJon!
lol, they would be the odd couple.
Rawrist No doubt who the "wifey" would've been in that relationship!
He doesn't mind Mage tho lol
