In Greek mythology, King Midas is known as a rogue ruler whose antics bemused his people and irritated the Gods. Many know the classic story of Midas's golden touch, but the foolish king was also known for his unusual pair of ears. Iseult Gillespie shares the myth of King Midas.

Midas: gives pan a compliment
Apollo: yo, wtf
nah he dissed apollo by saying pan was a better musician than the god of music
@@Andy-iq9pz tbf, Pan is the god of rustic music, and Midas might just be into it. Apollo is more like a god of the Arts
I love that Apollo just stares at the camera like: "You hearing this?"
he's pansexual :/
all that bc apollo can't stand a god damn opinion :/
In many versions of the tale, his daughter stayed gold
The first version I read had it this way anyhow
Sans Yeux maybe a more PG version like a family friendly Ver
I’ve heard these variations too. Also his wife knew about his ears in most versions I’ve heard. I don’t think there is a singular ‘correct’ story but rather they convey the same message albeit sometimes in a darker manner.
Thats sad
I was dissapointed she diddnt
Midas: Pan is a better musician
Apollo: And I took that personally
In my defense, Pan really is a better musician

I’d laugh my ears off
And then the reeds rustled and said *"Awesomesavage Possumcabbage has no ears!"*

Heck! I would too chuckle if I suddenly hear... _"Midas has asses ears..."_
But also be terrified, if I suddenly hear something, when nobody is nearby...

Just take a moment to appreciate the creativity of old myth. The barbers whispered into the ground and it grew a weed that his words would blow off of it into the wind. It's the kind of thought to make intangible things solid
Well turns out Midas was a real person and it's likely this myth has some basis in reality although magic powers were not real lol.

Interestingly, the daughter isn't mentioned in the original story of King Midas and we're not really sure when she was added to the story but Nathaniel Hawthorne chose to include her in his telling if the story in "the wonder book for girls and boys" so it's possible that he came up with her. I love the fact that dispite it not being historical accurate to the antiquity, we retell the myth with the daughter cause it makes it a better story.
Bonus: her name is marigold
marigold is not an ancient greek's name. the variation where the daughter was added was traced only back to 1853

They did
This second half of the story is very similar to a story named "the king and the tamarind drum" that I have heard before, a king who was so fond of himself that he said that he looks better than all the gods. Enraged at this statement the god made deformed him(donkey's ears), but he kept this as a secret and only his barber knew and the barber out of the wish to tell someone shouted it in a tree trunk. Sometime later the tree was made into a drum and as soon as it started playing, it shouted "our king has donkey's ears".
I know one where the instrument was a flute
I think
The one I read had the king with horns instead

Yep, that's me.
Gday thats me
In Terry Prachett's Discworld, the Seriph of Al-Ybi was cursed and everything he touched turned into Glod - a small and angry dwarf called 'Glod' from a another part of the world. This is because there was a typo when the cursing was done.
Hidden within the usual tale meant as a warning against hubris which the Greeks were so fond of, I really enjoyed the simple symbolism of the barber's secret being carried on the wind. It doesn't matter how reputable and responsible you think someone is, if you speak words meant to be confidential, they will almost undoubtedly be transmitted beyond your realm of control.

And his tiny hands...
And the quasi incestuous father daugher relationship
I learned about donkey-eared Midas in history class, the video is exactly as my teacher explained, thank you for your effort. If you come to Turkey one day, the place where Midas washed his hands is in Manisa. The villagers claim that there is still a glow there and that it is due to the gold flowing from Midas' hand.
The story of King Midas is a myth about the tragedy of avarice and narrates what happens when true happiness is not recognized. Midas was a man who wished that everything he touched would turn into gold. However, he had not thought that this wish was not actually a blessing, but a curse. His greed invites us to think and realize the consequences that may lead us to become slaves of our own desires. The phrase the Midas touch comes from this myth and is used to say that somebody has a good fortune.
In some versions he had three kids. Lityerses, a dangerous swordsman who killed travelers but was eventually beaten by a hero (I think Heracles) Zoe, his most well known and favorite child who was the daughter in the story and a second daughter who did not really do much.
Also I always liked myths involving Artemis.
same fave myths
The Donald would say he's the reincarnation of Midas, only bigly better.
how tho
Except that the Greek gods seem petty enough to turn a tailor into a spider just for unflattering reality of them as adulterer and jerks, or give Midas donkey ears just for giving a praise.
powerist - it's sort of on both of them, midas let his greed consume him and didn't mind his words, but yeah a god giving him the ears of a donkey for his claim was a bit petty.
Uh oh, another petty person triggered by trump

Could've said "i wish to turn anything to gold and back any time I want"
