Yes, in the Brothers Grimm version he pretends to be his brother so as to rescue him, but I find it odd he did not tell the wife who he was, instead of sleeping by her.
In the Twelve Dancing Princesses, my favorite version is about a war vet who picks the eldest, as he "was not as young as he used to be". I thought that was appropriate
Turning the witch into stone was probably an act of mercy, considering that the alternative was to let the two bears, two wolves, and two lions rip the witch to shreds.
Queen Ramble maybe it got translated as it is from Hungarian to English? Bear in mind different languages have different conceptions of time. For example, we Spanish speaking people have a more relative concept while you English speaking people are very exact. For example, if you said you’d arrive in 5 minutes to a certain place is because you are certain of it. In Spanish using resources like “give me a sec” “in a minute” “I’ll arrive soon”, party starts at 8:00, etc... usually indicate a short amount of time that the speaker doesn’t know the exact amount of and they’re used more often than in English, or fixing a certain hour for an event usually indicates the same will start 15 minutes to an hour after said time, indicating, however, that if you have arrived by the time the host said, it won’t be uncomfortable and totally fine. To give more seriousness to the sentences that are related to time, one usually indicates an activity one is doing or a place one is into so that the interlocutor can infer that the time stated will indeed be more or less what one has stated. Maybe Hungarian is sort of like that. And since the foreign knight had been winning all day long, when the prince fought him and vanquished him, in a few minutes, it would seem almost like if it was in an instant
Actually the translation is pretty incorrect there. In the original, the narrator is saying that the young prince was handling the sword so quickly, that the foreign knight didn't even notice he was killed. I have no idea why they choose to translate it that way, because it makes basically no sense. Before judging please keep in mind that a tremendous amount of information is lost, and altered in the translation, because Hungarian is HARD. If you have any questions, ask me ;)
3 predators that never attack him. Never attack each other. And never attack the townsfolk. Now they start growling at this STRANGER HIDING IN THE BRANCHES OF A TREE! What do you do? Immediately believe the stranger. Well, I guess we know who got the brains in this family.
This channel popped up randomly in my feed, but I've been enjoying these videos. Does anyone know if there's a written collection of these stories? I'd love to read them for myself.
They're scattered about the internet, I'm sure, but these stories are difficult to find recordings of because of their age. I've been binging this channel
If you would like to read these, one can buy a nice copy of the Brothers Grimm fairytales, in which include are many, and one that is very much like this.
Heard of many variations of this, interesting how stories travel around! For instance one of the variations had the two brothers put a knife in the tree and when it was rusted it meant he had died.
There was also a version that involved a spring. If the clear water from the spring ever became dirty, then it meant the other brother had died. Another cool example of fairytale's fluctuations with time :3
u r 1st 1 to say about that so far when I read comments forum &1 of the people complement this channel. Kinda annoy when some people keeping making joking over & over again like they violate the purpose of the story (like they said "be blonde to be save" in this folktale)
"The King took the Prince to his Palace and promised him the hand of his daughter, plus the country, once he died." At least that King had the foresight not to abdicate to his son-in-law.
Very well done! I find these so soothing to watch, and just sheer fun! Nothing complicated. Bad people get punished, good people get rewarded, and life is in balance. Thank you!
I don’t know why but the animation sometime satisfies me It looks like a fairytale book or tapestries and the animation is quite simplistic it’s just satisfying...
I love these folktales so much. Reminds me when my parents would rent cartoon cassettes for me to watch on Fridays and I would see them on TV at the balcony with the warm summer breeze blowing while under a warm blanket. God I miss these days
This tale is different from the rest. One of the brothers doesn't have a huge moustache. They don't hate each other. The younger doesn't take older brother's wife, instead goes to save his life. The wolf doesn't die brutally just for being a wolf and also the brothers are gays in incestious relationship apparently and kiss in the end. Love this one!
Man, what a beauty of intro, loved it!But of course, it's a hungrarian folk tales after all, it's all beautiful and kind in the animations!Great story, too!
So I was recommended one story and after binging these videos this is my 10th one. And in conclusion, to survive: 1) be humble 2) be kind 3) be the youngest 4) be blonde
How many of you grown ups went back to your childhood days Days of listening to grandma / grandpa vocalising similar clever symmetrical but twisty at the end tales of far off lands
The princes offered the old witch kindness and offered to share a fire with her. And she repaid that kindness by turning them to stone. I get she was scared of the animals but it’s not like the princes ordered them to attack her. But if an animal that’s close to a human owner is being so aggressive towards someone, there’s usually a good reason
At least the oldest sibling gets a happy ending, unlike some tales.
Yes, in the Brothers Grimm version he pretends to be his brother so as to rescue him, but I find it odd he did not tell the wife who he was, instead of sleeping by her.

Alyn Myers I think it was to calm her down.
Yeah man, ombre before it was cool!
its not a big deal bro
Okay, "The Diligent Girl and the Lazy Girl" got recommended to me....NOW I'M WATCHING EVERY STORY
That was the same one that I watched that got me into these.
For me it was 'The Two Princes With Golden Hair'
Same
Same, LOL
Same
Finally a pair of siblings that love each other!
IKR!!??
Emma Black lol ikr
only because they are both blondes haha
Read Brother and Sister from the brothers Grimm. Also don't forget Hansel and Gretel.
♥︎LOVELIES♥︎ says the person who’s name is Love Lies
Wow, that is the calmest pair of lions, wolves,
And bears I’ve ever seen
I agree I would love to have one too
Yeah,calmer than my parrot
Nice story, and it is good that younger brother didn't steal his brother wife.
I get the impression he'd already found his own good life.
😂 that is a common issue indeed
True, that's how they usually end lol. This was a good one.
"Steal"
Silver ?
Turning the witch into stone was probably an act of mercy, considering that the alternative was to let the two bears, two wolves, and two lions rip the witch to shreds.
Considering most of this tales, the witch would have been reborn and then she would kill them lol
I am a Witch Hunter from the Empire. Shall I hunt the witch down?
@@witchhuntermagnuswraithman9619 Burn the witch! Burn the witch! She has turned me to newt!
What type of guy always walks with 3 carnivorous beasts?🤔
Logic: Only princes of hungarian folk tales would, my child
who's the royal hairstylist these are the freshest cuts ive ever seen
Knowing HFT, probably horse that eat hot coals
Agree they look like farrah fawcet
Those ombre locks tho
On Fleek
Millenial prince
Omfg😂😂
Nobody’s going to mention the fact that he literally sliced that guy in half? It was so sudden it was actually kind of funny lol
I like these tales. Help facilitate my procrastination habits.
LMAO Same, I literally have finals tomorrow
EXACTLY ! XD XD XD
Let me join this club. 😅😅
me 2
That's actually the primary reason that TH-cam exists... To keep you distracted.
dear goodness the animation on these tales. "He was killed...in an instant!" *they'd already been fighting for several seconds*

Maybe they just meant he died in one blow. Like that one sword swoop killed him instantly

😂😁😂😁😂
I love takes where the brothers/sisters are not pegged against each other but love each other dearly 🥰❤️
Only because they are 2 brothers. If this story had 3 brothers, they wouldn't get along so well
I thought they kissed. I was like WUT.
AislingStarr same 😂
At that moment I was like… WAIT DID THEY KSUGSHSJSSH Oh wait they didnt
Incest is wincest duhh
AislingStarr ikr
2 brothers and the princess lived hapily ever after(~_~)
2:54 the way the foreign knight was sliced so casually. Also, why was the witch going around turning random people to stone
I thought they kissed Oof
No homo
History Trash
It's ok, I did too
x3
Same lol 😂
I ship it lol
6:18 "Good deeds are rewarded by good in return. But evil deeds shall be punished."
More like "u reap wat u've sown"
What brings me back to these folk tales, is not the animation nor the stories but the Narrator🗣️🔉
ah the original hungarian guy had a very deep voice and told these tales with very good feel.
its a pity only 80's-90's hungarians will know
This channel popped up randomly in my feed, but I've been enjoying these videos. Does anyone know if there's a written collection of these stories? I'd love to read them for myself.

Dude same like, get me a book
They should be. I remember reading a similar story in a library book.
If you would like to read these, one can buy a nice copy of the Brothers Grimm fairytales, in which include are many, and one that is very much like this.
Lol same here ..😂
I think these are great. I am also happy to see a story of this kind where the brothers didn' t try to get the upper hand of one another. Very nice.
Heard of many variations of this, interesting how stories travel around! For instance one of the variations had the two brothers put a knife in the tree and when it was rusted it meant he had died.

Lara Croft ooh i havnt heard that one before! It really is quite interesting.
Also sorry for very late reply oops
Interesting, I wonder how an objects of this can symbolize ach brother's life span.
I am loving these Hungarian folk tales. The animation is beautiful and stories, very calming.😌
u r 1st 1 to say about that so far when I read comments forum &1 of the people complement this channel. Kinda annoy when some people keeping making joking over & over again like they violate the purpose of the story (like they said "be blonde to be save" in this folktale)
2:54 *I DID NOT EXPECT THAT OMG HAHA-*
*”he saw an incredibly old woman”*
Old man is just walking with two male tigers, two bears and two wolves with no fear of being eaten. This guy is a true legend
URK! Did not expect to see the guy cut in half, and the two halves lying on the ground! Zoinks!
"The King took the Prince to his Palace and promised him the hand of his daughter, plus the country, once he died." At least that King had the foresight not to abdicate to his son-in-law.
He was the anti-Meghan.
Man, these sure leave you Hungary for more!
*UUUHHHHGGGG....*
Very well done! I find these so soothing to watch, and just sheer fun! Nothing complicated. Bad people get punished, good people get rewarded, and life is in balance. Thank you!
I love this one but I wanna know the younger brothers journey too 😄
I don’t know why but the animation sometime satisfies me
It looks like a fairytale book or tapestries and the animation is quite simplistic it’s just satisfying...
Is ANYONE ELSE concerned that plants are sprouting out of living birds?
I know right? Creepy
I find the intro beautiful just because of this
symbolizes singing btw
the princes in these stories kinda be looking fresh
6:14 I THOUGHT TGEY WERE GONNA KISS
YAAAAAOOI
Finally a wholesome story I can stand behind.
I love these folktales so much. Reminds me when my parents would rent cartoon cassettes for me to watch on Fridays and I would see them on TV at the balcony with the warm summer breeze blowing while under a warm blanket. God I miss these days
6:13 I LEGIT THOUGHT THEY KISSED EACH OTHER 😭😭
They are not the island boys
Me too 😭😭😭
Lions, wolves, and bears, oh my.
What, no tigers?
Nice sophie the swamp witch avatar.
This one had a cool ending with the little pig snorting the air!
Seeing the man getting chopped in two was pretty gruesome, but otherwise it was a good story.

As the matter of fact, YES I DO! And Agnes Korondi just loves to harass.
What a nice story about not giving up searching for a loved one, aswell as seeing a healthy brothership. I love this story alot ahh. ♥️
I love this channel especially the narrator’s voice it fits so perfect for these stories.I have seen almost all the stories n loving it so far💞
This tale is different from the rest. One of the brothers doesn't have a huge moustache. They don't hate each other. The younger doesn't take older brother's wife, instead goes to save his life. The wolf doesn't die brutally just for being a wolf and also the brothers are gays in incestious relationship apparently and kiss in the end. Love this one!
There is a similar folk tale in our native language telugu... And it was present in our secondary school text book📚
Srikrishnamadhurima Ravuri can u tell it please
Finally, a story where siblings actually love each other
This channel popped out of my recommendations for days until I finally clicked on that one video and I never knew I would watch a lot of it 😩
Man, what a beauty of intro, loved it!But of course, it's a hungrarian folk tales after all, it's all beautiful and kind in the animations!Great story, too!
godammit, and here I thought my country's folktales will forever be my most favorite
I'm addicted to these videos 😭😭😭😭
underrated gem
I miss my sister. When she was here we would watch these folk tales together...
im happy that these siblings love each other!!
So I was recommended one story and after binging these videos this is my 10th one. And in conclusion, to survive:
1) be humble
2) be kind
3) be the youngest
4) be blonde
This one is in Grimm's fairy tales. Except there was a knife stuck in a tree that rusted on one side when the corresponding brother died.
Yes and I remember they've more animals fox and rabbit too.
@@bettyb3386 And all of them turned into stones too?( T-T)
Anytime I think I've watched all of these, a new one shows up on my recommend list.
I HAVE HOMEWORK AND I AM STILL WATCHING THESE STORIES
1:25 Looks like the old man kidnapped a pair of Lannisters, Mormonts and Starks.
I enjoy all stories ... for there is always a hidden meaning to them
Love the intro music...I'm a new viewer love your folktales videos
Before I watch prediction: the one with the blond tips is the hero
After: okay I was sorta right, but yeah the blond prince was the overall hero
I love how they each have their squad of beasts following them haha
man i frikin love these
I love these tales ❤
Dang, he cut him in half
They left out the best part about frog and bacon.
"Ty peečieš slaninu a ja žabu. Tebe bude slanina a mne žaba!"
I love the rhymes at the end 💖
do any of you guys think this is related to "the two boys with golden hair"?
2:53/2:54 “Killed...in an instant!” Damn that is gory for a kid’s folk tale! FATALITY!
Finally a story that makes sense.
You deserve more subscriber's i love your channel and you have a nice voice
How many of you grown ups went back to your childhood days
Days of listening to grandma / grandpa vocalising similar clever symmetrical but twisty at the end tales of far off lands
Hungarian Folktales: The Prince Who Turned Into Stone...uh, spoilers...
6:14 they kissed the end.
Damn! He sliced that dude in half!
...................................the heck was that ending line about a pig?
Well this story was nice and senseful (in terms of fairy tales)
The princes offered the old witch kindness and offered to share a fire with her. And she repaid that kindness by turning them to stone. I get she was scared of the animals but it’s not like the princes ordered them to attack her. But if an animal that’s close to a human owner is being so aggressive towards someone, there’s usually a good reason
Very good message. Trust your instincts.
I want a gif of that dancing lion
It is just like the story of The Twin Princes (a Czech folktale)
Hermoso cuento con mensaje.
@6:42 the pig is still rolling the stone as of date
Good on ya bros!
I like the part where it’s animated
I love this Movie, 😍😍😍😍
I heard a similar story xD funny I bumped into it now
👌good story👌
My fudanshi self keeps thinking that they are kissing, fml.
That last line!! 🐖
What is the meaning behind being turned to stone? Its showed up in a few tales I've seen.
This reminds me of the tale of The Mother of Fishes
And a new Subscriber 😁😁😁
Anyone else keep getting these videos in their recommendations
Must've been "hard" to live as a stone
The title music of this video's is awesome what kind of music it is, where can I find such?
A story after long day of hardship tired and before sleep
Any Hungarians here?:)
~pauses at 6:12~ ...So THAT'S how it is in their family, eh?
Never turn your back on those u came with
