Just because two people have a very close relationship does not mean they are lovers. I think you hit the friendship/family bond right on the nail. It goes perfect with the song.
I saw this vid for the first time YEARS ago and I still come back to it every so often. So well-edited and engrossing. It inspired a rewatch of the entire show and reminded me how much I love Hercules/Iolaus. Ahhhh and the clip of the gravemarker plunging down and the waves crashing right as the music kicks up -- what a perfect moment! I aspire to that moment in my own vids. Thanks so much for making this.
good job from you awesome video i am crying from emotion !!! the best video in youtube good job bravo!!!!!!!!!! ouaou!!!! iolaus and hercules the best FRIENDS FOR EVER.... KOSTAS FROM GREECE
this was really great. i have seen different fans of different series use this song for something similar, but this is by far the best one i have seen.
thats a good point i thought it was the final straw for Hercules too but then a I got the third season and watched not fade away and he still had his mother when iolaus died unlike his wife and children where he just seemed to carry on, he refused to accept that iolaus was gone and demanded him back I think this was because iolaus had a bigger influence on his life than anyone else and also knew him better than probebly his own mother I prefer to think they were that close without being romantic
In all this time I still turn to this video in particular when I need a dose of these two characters. No one could've played Herc the way Sorbo did, the same for Hurst. They created a new genre in TV history which can never be repeated. Thank you Frieda, for yrs of pure joy.
This video was beautifully done! In regards to a romantic thing, I don't think so. I would say their relationship was more "true friends". They understood each other, been there for each other and could make each other laugh.
The aneurysm and strokes happened earlier (according to Wikipedia between S4 and S5) but of course his health problems probably also played a role in his leaving in S6. Wikipedia says he got a reduced filming schedule in those later seasons. At least he managed to get well!
i loved Hercules when I was a little child and now after 10 years I looked at a few episodes and I still like it:-) I just wanna ask - what is the name of the song in this vid? I know that, but I can not remember how's the name...
Adding my voice to those who support the possibility as shown here SO well, that these men loved each other physically as well as in their hearts. It's certainly ok to imagine, as Frieda helps us do with her amazing images, that as was the custom, men loved men physically all the time. Again thank you Frieda for yrs of delight and fantasy.
Als Herc seinen besten fast Bruder Iolaos nicht mehr zurückholen konnte wie schon einmal von Hades Reich, mußte ich so weinen.... Ich liebe diese Szenen sooo sehr denn noch nie hat mich eine Serie sooooo sehr berührt😘😘😘😥😥😥
This was done extremely well. brings back good memories and this was a great tv series. i wish they would show some reruns, cause i can't find this show in any store.
Kristen Gilbert of course I liked it no doubt! In fact....I have to admit & confess that : " Hercules, Xena & Sinbad are the best #tvseries of all time, believe that! So, well done & keep up the good work 👋💐🌹🌸🔥👏❤🌠🎇🌌💝💫👑👄🍷✅💖💗💟🎆💎🌷☺🌻✨😊🌼👋
The Video Was Great Perfect Song. But the whole Romantic thing creep me out i always seen them as Brotherly love and Best Friends. I loved when the vdeo hits 3:00 minutes that part gave me goosebumps!!!
Just because they are not shown as lovers on the show doesn't mean we can't make videos about it . . . as you said, slash! But thank you for the compliment on the video. :)
Watched this show when I was very little. I don't remember most of what happened. Happy the DVDs are being released again. Your video is very awesome. It has some great editing and the dissolves really add great effect. (Sorry if I gush a bit. Bit obsessed with editing since I am in college for it.) Very powerful video.
God I miss those old youtube times full of memes and fan vids without all that shitty youtubers faces everywhere. Thank you so much for bringing good memories.
Thank you! It really means a lot to me when people have an emotional reaction like that. While I'm more of a Xena/Ares shipper, of course I think the X/G relationship is there to enjoy however you want to see it, too. So many choices! :D
aoxelfrieda I notice you have put this as a slash video. Can I ask you do you think that (disregarding the myth) if these two were real that they would be lovers. And what do other viewers of this great videos think aswell.
Oh my! It was so long ago. Please let someone turn back time :( Ha Iolaus was my favourite character! :D Great video, great memories came back from my childhood :)
You're an excellent video editor. Love this video. I used to watch Hercules when I was 13 years old (that was 11 years ago) and I remember it to be slashy but since then I've become more picky about my pairings (and also more desperate in a way - what a contradiction!) so I wonder: Was the sadness expressed by Hercules due to the loss of Iolaus or are you just, as I said earlier, an excellent video editior? ;) I believed it... Thinking about watching the series again, that's why I'm asking.
@bleifrei95 Thanks, I really appreciate the comments! I would say that there was some subtext there, although not to the extent of XWP . . . I would be glad to hear what you think after a re-watch, and if I encouraged you to watch the show again, then I've done my job right. :) Cheers!
@BurgereaterRichard Haha, yeah, it's a bit complicated, but the beginning of S5 is really good . . . S6 wasn't great, but the show got cut short because Sorbo left once his contract was up, so there are only 8(?) episodes.
Thanks so much! I totally agree that the song is (very) overused, but I figured there aren't many H/I videos out there, so why not . . . :D I appreciate your comments. :)
Haha, thanks. I used the clip from "Darkness Rising" for Iolaus and the clip of Herc from . . . one of the Herc movies? I think it was Hercules in the Underworld (it was a scene with Deianiera). Thanks for commenting!
that's the way I see it aswell I just wanted to get other peoples opinions thanks for yours. I never watched Xena too much doom and gloom for my liking. Even though this Hercules show can be quite cringe worthy at times it is still definately worth watching and very funny and their friendship is really quite touching it's probebly what made the show great.
Thanks for commenting. :) As far as their relationship goes, the video wasn't necessarily meant to reflect the way it was portrayed on the show . . . anyway, glad you liked it. :)
you know what I found strange about the clip at 0:42 from descent is that I didn't see him cry for his wife and children in the episode wrong path but he is crying for Iolaus, sure I believe he was heart broken about his wife and children but he kept going. Here he is absolutely devestated he even denounces him self in the episode resurection and in the clip at 3:08 he doesn't look as if he cares whether he lives or dies. That brings into question just how important iolaus was to Hercules.
Just because two people have a very close relationship does not mean they are lovers. I think you hit the friendship/family bond right on the nail. It goes perfect with the song.
Still to this day, two of my favorite on-screen duo friendships. I miss these guys. Thanks for the tears today. 😢 Happy New Year 2022, everyone.
Oh, the memories! Thanks for watching and commenting, and Happy New Year!
OMG, i am totaly hooked to this video and song. Season 5 was the best, its just finished over here in ireland.
Very emotional video...I cried as a small baby , Hercules is still one of the best serials ever
It would be great if everyone had a friendship like this.

so touching i remember wene i was a child :(
thanks kevin.............(can't express feelings)

Hell yeah, if xena gets gabrielle, then hercules gets iolaus! Video very well done by the way.
Okay seriously, I've watched this video about 37 times and its brings me to tears every single time @.o Super great!! I love it ^.^
the best series that exists, alongside Xena
Utterly fantastic vid. The song choice, the clip selection, the pacing, the mood--it all fits together so beautifully. Very re-watchable. Great job.
This video was beautifully done! In regards to a romantic thing, I don't think so. I would say their relationship was more "true friends". They understood each other, been there for each other and could make each other laugh.
God damn it. What a powerful friendship and a powerful song mixed together. This is by far one of the most powerful videos on youtube. Bravo!
Woooah, baby! You turned the subtext into a clear text all written in capital letters!
The aneurysm and strokes happened earlier (according to Wikipedia between S4 and S5) but of course his health problems probably also played a role in his leaving in S6. Wikipedia says he got a reduced filming schedule in those later seasons. At least he managed to get well!
This is incredible. First time watching
Aww, thank you so much! 💓

one of the best clips shows of this series in my opinion. The song was beautiful, I had a wee cry listening to it.
So beautiful, really captures the sadness. Thank you.
Thank you, glad you liked it!
Als Herc seinen besten fast Bruder Iolaos nicht mehr zurückholen konnte wie schon einmal von Hades Reich, mußte ich so weinen....
Ich liebe diese Szenen sooo sehr denn noch nie hat mich eine Serie sooooo sehr berührt😘😘😘😥😥😥
This was done extremely well. brings back good memories and this was a great tv series. i wish they would show some reruns, cause i can't find this show in any store.
Wow, this song has been used for some awsome Xena vids but man this was up there right with them. Very sweet and moving, wonderful vid!
i never even watched Herc like i did Xena and this video is more powerful than any other Xena vids i've seen! ur an awesome editor :)
Oh my! very emotional song! This brought tears to my eyes. I cried as a small baby 👋💐🌹🌸🔥👏❤🌠🎇🌌💝💫👑👄🍷✅💖💗💟🎆💎🌷☺🌻✨😊🌼👋

Aww this brought tears to my eyes! This was so wonderful. Hercules/Iolaus is so beautiful. You did such an excellent job.
It has been exciting, I am charmed with it, the song is genial and the very well select scenes, great video, very good, brilliant work.
Regards.
Loli
By the way beautiful vid, i wish there were more tributes to Iolaus he was so great!
Watched this show when I was very little. I don't remember most of what happened. Happy the DVDs are being released again. Your video is very awesome. It has some great editing and the dissolves really add great effect. (Sorry if I gush a bit. Bit obsessed with editing since I am in college for it.) Very powerful video.
That's ... kinda amazing. Wonderfully done, and it reminds me how much I loved this show.
Thanks so much! :) If you go to the video information, you can right-click on the download link, then choose "Save As" to save the video.
Hercules was slated for 2 additional years. It was Kevin's choice to end it. He was scheduled to star on Andromeda shortly after Hercules was cancled.
The best friendship ever, this ship and Dalaric.
Τhe best🤗
God I miss those old youtube times full of memes and fan vids without all that shitty youtubers faces everywhere. Thank you so much for bringing good memories.
Wow, that's so kind of you. Thanks for commenting!
I loved it. It was so sweet, yet sad enough to make me cry.

Still the best show ever made really like this song with it!!
Very nice!!! and I love this song...Was heartwrenching when Iolaus died..love this show!! Nice work!!
Thank you very much! Those clips are from Top God and Not Fade Away.
You're an excellent video editor. Love this video.

@khishane Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Sorbo and Hurst had great chemistry, you could tell they were friends in real life.
Thanks so much! That clip was from Hercules and the Amazon Women, the first of the HTLJ movies.
i am crying i have seen every episode and i have cried once but this vid made me start bawling
very beautiful and emotional video
Aghh!! *breaks down into helpless sobbing* That was sooo good!! Great job! ^.-
Thanks, I really appreciate your comments!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! The show always brings back memories for me, too. :)
Thanks so much for the kind comments!

Frieda thanks again for your wonderful Video- you really do such a great work!
+Sangali Mitra Thanks so much for your nice comment! :)
@BurgereaterRichard Haha, yeah, it's a bit complicated, but the beginning of S5 is really good . . . S6 wasn't great, but the show got cut short because Sorbo left once his contract was up, so there are only 8(?) episodes.
Thanks so much! I totally agree that the song is (very) overused, but I figured there aren't many H/I videos out there, so why not . . . :D I appreciate your comments. :)
At 2:13, what episode did this footage come from?
It's from S5E11 "Redemption" (this is aoxelfrieda with a different account).
That's okay. I'd already found that scene there. Thank you anyway.
Thanks for commenting!
awesome video! very touching!!!
It's from the episode "Not Fade Away." Thanks so much for your kind comment!
@BurgereaterRichard He was there, not in every episode, though. It's also a bit confusing because of Alternate Universe Iolaus from S5 . . .
Hercules
Really nice Vid, the music in bgd is nice attached, good job, I enjoyed Re-watching Herc ;)
Thank you, that's very sweet of you!
@CassandraMotou Thanks for commenting, and have fun with the (re-)watch!
What episode is 33 seconds-36 seconds. I've seen the ep just can't remember the name if it
Thank you very much! Glad you liked it!
grazie!
Beautifully done!
@Ashleyls17 Tell me about. I love it.. I watched them too when I was a kid. I loved. I already own the first 2 seasons on DVD
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! :)
Haha, thanks. I used the clip from "Darkness Rising" for Iolaus and the clip of Herc from . . . one of the Herc movies? I think it was Hercules in the Underworld (it was a scene with Deianiera). Thanks for commenting!
that was awesome i loved it, i ve been thinking about doing a femmeslash vid of her and iolus great job
Thanks, I hope to make more eventually!
@Ashleyls17 Thank you! I like editing a lot, but haven't really done any for a while. That must be a cool major!
Thanks so much for the very kind comments! I would highly recommend S5 - in my opinion it was the best one. Glad you enjoyed the vid!
Hercules and Iolaus forever>3 Beautiful vidoe btw:D
Thanks for the feedback :)
Thanks so much, I'm happy you liked it!
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks so much :)
I'll try to provide a link for download sometime this weekend . . . I'll let you know!
that's the way I see it aswell I just wanted to get other peoples opinions thanks for yours. I never watched Xena too much doom and gloom for my liking.
