A Canadian mining engineer (or some other mysterious but lucrative trade) that does tool reviews suddenly breaks out a story time spanning the Bible, Khabalah, Masonic history, Medieval History, French History, and tantric magiks... It's hockey season boys!
There is more comprehensive information in this 25 minute video than all of my high school social studies classes. This makes so much sense and puts things into a perspective otherwise not undestood without knowing how it ties together. This is why this continues to be one of the better channels on TH-cam.

AvE These fireside chats are amazing. Makes me long to bring back oral traditions of yesteryear! It helps to have the message delivered in your trademark tongue-tangular fashion.
Making reservations for the Last Supper: "I'd like a table for 26, please." "But there are only 13 of you." "Yes, I know...but we all want to sit on the same side of the table."
I've been subbed for years and I'm still not tired of hearing you speak. Always entertaining and sets my mind at ease for some reason. Thank you for your hard work.
There's something beautiful about a deep philosophical monolog as a background for setting some dead tree carcus on fire, thank you Mr. Ave for many years of enlightening content, a long time fan
...not to mention the one minute and twenty seconds of silence at the end, for the viewer's deep, and quiet, reflection of Uncle Bumblefuck's thought provoking commentary.
I've just finished watching and I really can't overstate just how good this was!! 😮😮 When it comes to joining up historical dots, this is the best produced, funniest and most information packed 25 mins that I've ever seen 👏👏👏
That was very informative, even for someone well versed in all things Templar. The timing of your presentation and the significance to current events is noted and greatly appreciated. Stay safe, Uncle.
Yeah Buddy, I see, and appreciate what you did there. Well done fellow tongue tumbler upside done be farked here into and fort with or without, as long as he’s farked into good 👍🏼
I was always taught that Friday the 13th became unlucky due to Philip IV having every Templar arrested on 13th October 1307 which happens to be a Friday, I've visited the city where they were taken to, to be imprisoned, and dealt with as they saw fit. Interesting learning about the other historical influences that shaped the mystics of Friday the 13th being unlucky.
Interesting thing about the Templars is that for quite a number of years after being founded and being in the Holy Land, their numbers were very low. I think there were just 10-12 of them. And in all that time there is no record of them protecting any pilgrims. After all, how could they, since the attackers numbered in the hundreds. And when they got an official charter from the Pope that made their existence official and set forth their goals and duties, that charter said nothing about protecting pilgrims. So what did the Templars do all those years? All we know is that wherever they did, it made them rich. And keep in mind, they recruited 0 new members before getting their charter, and only after that did they start recruiting and receiving wealth from their new members. It would appear that what they were actually doing was digging under Herod's temple, trying to get into Solomon's temple, and into the Holiest of Hollies, to find the treasure buried there. And it looks like they succeeded. The tunnel they used is still there, and Templar artefacts were found in it. What did they find? We don't know. Most likely sacred texts, like those found at the Dead Sea. There was probably treasure, which is how they became so important and powerful that they got a papal charter and everyone wanted to join them. And some say that at least the sacred texts they found, maybe even the Gospel of Jesus, are hidden under Roslyn chapel. Also, as another interesting possibility: the Turin shroud may actually be an image of Jacques de Molay, created as he was being tortured after being captured on that Friday the 13th. It certainly looks just like him. It's dated from that time period as well.
The shroud of Turnin is evidence of the transmutation of the flesh, 4D or higher...in my humble opinion. A Christ engine, not for everyone but the greatest prise in the Universe, thus the hardest to attain.
@@CristiNeagunot to pee in your cornflakes but, the carbon dating of 13th - 14th century is likely reading the fire it was rescued from during that time. Which contradicts the pollens examined from the shroud which not only show being from Judea... but also show a closer age of 30-40 AD. 🤔🤷♂️
I’ve watched you for 5 years, I revisit once a year for a month or so. Each time I come back I realise how much I’ve learnt and how much information you have to give.
This was exactly what I needed. Glad to see it is finally sitting by the fire time of year. Not only did I enjoy the fire, as always, I learned a ton as well. Thank you for the much needed therapy evening AvE!
I absolutely love when you do content like this. You got a potty mouth, and my wife always rolls her eyes when I listen to you, but bro, I gotta say, well done, from one recovering catholic to another.
Holy shit man, you never cease to amaze me. Quoting Hermes Trismegistus, and with a deep and wide knowledge of history and the occult (simply meaning 'hidden") I am blown away by your knowledge. A tip of my (non pointed) hat to you!
Not sure how this fits in with your channel. But I really enjoyed it. I also hope you'll continue with these nuggets of history and the like. As someone with more than just an interest in occult knowledge, I welcome any and all information, no matter how and where it comes from. A sincere Thank You.
The algorithm fed me an ave vid sometime in 2012 and I've watched every video since. I love the variety of content. from a ghetto rock crusher and ball mills to these fireside chats. You Sir make the world a better place. Moly grease still banned or did you just get a grey couch?
This is the first video Ive seen of yours in years! I though You Tube banned you fot some reason. As a Christian and former Past Master of a Florida Blue Lodge- I really enjoyed this!
Alright, it's not even Hallowed 'Een yet. I was not ready for such a tale. Probably because you've been putting out little more but shorts of you slaying boxes for a little while. Glad to see you're getting back in to the swing of things, and to hear your tongue-tangulations in my brain things for a change.
As someone who represents the newer generation, I show my greatest gratitude to yours truly. Not only I learn new things about how machines work, but also I get to learn about the world from a different perspective, from someone in the different corner of the world and different generation.
your commitment to the awkward silence after the longest lead up to a punchline rivals Norm.... must be something in the water or the cold Canadian winters. got to fill the time in front of the fire somehow!
why did the Dodge Brothers switch from a hexagram to a pentagon, I wondered aloud to no-one in particular. the cat glared at me over her glasses for a moment and then returned to her typing.
Very interesting and amusing. I suspect that old stove has been witness to many interesting conversations held by AvE & Company. Perhaps on Friday nights and perhaps properly beveraged. Great stuff!!!
You are absolutely correct, and I implore you to listen to William Coopers Mystery Babylon series. He explains the exact same premise but with more info before and after they were killed. Love your content. Keep it up!!!
I listened to the first episode and a half of this hoping for new information. This sounds like pure meandering nonsense.. can you elaborate on what this man is talking about?
Would love to know your media for research in acquiring such knowledge and understanding of history. Is it books, friends at campfires, library, or tinternet? I'll suffer through a book, but it better have pictures :)
A note on The Death of Baldur: it was mistletoe, not holly. Mistletoe is a delicate, small plant and a symbol of love and fertility. It would be redundant to ask it for an oath. It is even more impressive that Loki was able to fashion an arrow out of it.
All I really know for certain about Friday the 13th is that in the 4th grade, with no foreknowledge of this curse, I went to a roller skating party that my elementary school threw that evening. Friday the 13th. We stayed after school, threw on our rented skates, and I had a blast rolling and dancing to the music. That is, until I was unlucky enough to be skating past the most obese member of our entire pre-junior high student body. He was a 5th grader who weighed somewhere in the deuce, deuce and a half territory (freedom units). Some smart aleck decided to trip the poor boy right as I passed him. As he fell, his roller skate-clad foot thrust outward in such a way as to get tangled in my own roller skate-clad foot, and down we both went. When I landed, the rotund boy pile drove right into my chest with all of his momentous weight and rolled off the right side of my body towards the shoulder. With the wind knocked out of me, but otherwise not in pain, I collected myself and skated over to the sideline of the gymnasium to catch my breath. When I lifted my right arm to stop at the wall, I felt a thunderbolt of pain blast through my shoulder right at the joint. I have never felt pain of that level before or since, and I've broken several bones, including in my hands. After a few minutes of this throbbing pain, I began to cry from the weight of it. I cried for about 45 minutes waiting for my mother to come pick me up. Nobody called her to let her know I had been injured, because government employees, so she picked me up at the normally expected time. We lived only a few minutes from the school, so I know this is what happened. Given my state when she found me, she rushed me to the ER to have my shoulder x-rayed and have me examined by an expert. After the doctor initially checked me out and had me x-rayed, he had my mother leave the room, stood up on a stool, and pressed down on my supposedly fractured clavicle with all of his substantial weight. This was almost as painful as that initial shock of pain from the injury. I don't know what that nutjob was thinking, but looking back on it, it's the dumbest thing I think I've ever seen a doctor do. I'm not sure why he did that, but in retrospect, I'm not even sure my clavicle was broken in the first place, and it seems like he was trying to actually break it himself. He didn't succeed of course, because he gave up, and gave my mother a line about how my bone resembled a green sapling that can't be literally broken, only bent. FYI, I was never afforded any anesthetic. Regardless, a few days later, after I was in a sling and brace, forced to sleep upright to avoid re-injury of the shoulder, someone told me that the reason for my bad luck on that day was that it was Friday the 13th. I looked, and sure enough, that's the day it happened. That was my initiation into knowledge of that superstition. It's been a tough row to hoe since then avoiding belief in such nonsense, but this story is the truth, or at least as close as I'm honestly able to reproduce it after all these years.
That was a well turned story. Once I thought I stubbed my toe in the middle of the night as I was using my aunts' outhouses as a kid. Upon coming back inside to the light I noticed I'd shore my toenail off on my left big toe all the way back to the knuckle. It never grew back and I started getting an ingrown toenail on the other foot in my late 20's, well pop that guy went too (of my own painful volition this time) and my toes haven't been happier.
Awesome history lesson! I wish more people knew history like this. So many do not understand that the things we deal with on a daily basis have origins hundreds or thousands of years in the past.
i'm about as drunk as i should be on a wed-nes-day even-ing and... i dunno what's going on. the words are english, i understand them, i know what they mean individually, but the combinations are nonsensical.
You sir, are exactly the type of gentleman and scholar that I enjoy sitting around the fire with, enjoying a couple brewskis. Tis a darn crying shame it shall never happen.
So glad I re-subscribed last night. This was well appreciated. I’ve heard the stories many times *but not like this* 🤠 Good luck to you and yours Much ❤ Love 🌎🌏🌍☯️⚡️ Ps. What was that un-subscribe thing about anyway?
Excellent. Boybyou surely had me absolutely enthralled. I was waiting for the final ooh yeah. Nope same historic story. You did it better than most. Years back. The Friday part is not as important as the lessons learned past. Good work. You rock.
What a fuckin masterpiece. This is like that tv channel in the 90s that showed a fire and played soft music to lull you into a slumber. Bravo partner, keep your stick in the ice.
yea i didnt really agree with Ave's take on that part. (still trying to wrap my head around the rest so I'm not sure if i agree or disagree yet😂) (Edit) - ok i think i misunderstood what Ave was saying. After further thought, I think Ave might have been pointing out that god is saying that magi and the occult exist....i.e. if they didn't exist he wouldn't need to be jealous and warn us away from them? I'm not the brightest bulb so sometimes it takes me a while to work thru things
Is Patreon the only community left other than the comments section? Cancelled mine a while ago apparently, but I was looking for a place to share this: Apparently having an AvE sticker makes you a part of a secret club. Landed at my home airport and saw a tool case with a sticker on it, and being a fellow member of the brotherhood of the traveling tool box, I had to come over and show him the same sticker I had on my laptop.
I started watching this at 6AM EST, just got home from telling people that their heatpump has a cracked heat exchanger and needs replaced, with threats of EPA violence, 😂, its now 7:30 PM EST and great googamooga what a wealth of knowledge you are, please write a book brother. When i get burned at the stake at 77 for owning things and being unhappy, ill rest well knowing that the ancient skills arent dead yet.😂😂😂
I love the portrait of Sir Francis Bacon
Bacon is good also.
I once had some corn smoked sir Francis bacon. Phenomenal stuff.

AvE is the most perspicacious combination of mechanics, linguistics, history, and humor. It's so nice to get an episode like this thank you

It helps to have the message delivered in your trademark tongue-tangular fashion.
You say oral traditions I hear the Dalai Lama getting his tongue sucked...
True. I love how this guy combines language and humour. F@#king brilliant.
Always good to sit by the fire and listen to Uncle Bumblefork share knowledge of the world.
Get the name right... It's Bumblefuck.
So, it's bad luck to be superstitious?
Maybe stoooperstishous 😂😂

And this is why I tune into this old fart, from machining to history and some life lessons on the side, with a healthy dash of humor, he's got it all.

A masterpiece.
This upload, and the one where you described modern monitary policy, are my favorites.
Thank you.
Ahhh yes a story video. You know I love these. Hoping for a junkie Christmas again this year but something new is always cool.
There's something beautiful about a deep philosophical monolog as a background for setting some dead tree carcus on fire, thank you Mr. Ave for many years of enlightening content, a long time fan

This man is an amazing biographer, and historian.
This stuff could be its own channel. More please.
I have watched every video since the kitchenaid teardown.
TH-cam never notified me of this one
Unsubscribed?
did you unsub when he told you to and forgot to reclick the button?
@@colestowing8695Were we supposed to resubscribe? I never got the memo from AvE.
This video made me wistful for old conversations with old friends. Right down to the comfort of a fire. Thanks.
That was very informative, even for someone well versed in all things Templar. The timing of your presentation and the significance to current events is noted and greatly appreciated. Stay safe, Uncle.
By far the most comprehensive tool disassembly, analysis, and review yet. As always, follow the money. True, dough is the root of all evil.
True; Dough! Just in time for something to be done about it!
Yeah Buddy, I see, and appreciate what you did there. Well done fellow tongue tumbler upside done be farked here into and fort with or without, as long as he’s farked into good 👍🏼
Anyone else get that “stay a while and listen” vibe. Loved this very much

You should sell the fire scene hours at a time to the TV companies! Thanks for the good stuff!
I’ve watched you for 5 years, I revisit once a year for a month or so. Each time I come back I realise how much I’ve learnt and how much information you have to give.
"Unfortunately it was a Monday" Maybe thats why the Saint Garfield of Jon hated Mondays so much?
And why the Boomtown Rats don't like Mondays.
"occult magic demons and motorcycle repair".
wait, i need a few mooseheads to go from here, your fireside chats are very soothing and informative.
I feel like Ave would be the best guest on JRE ever. I don't even care if they never show his face.
That would be an awesome interview
He’s like Nelson, Tim Taylor’s neighbour behind the fence.
But of course way better lol
Pity I can obly like this comment once.
And this is why you should have a dedicated channel for only historical information stories. That was a fun brief walk through history. Thanks.
Not many people can tell a story & incorporate the Chili Peppers, Bob Marley & Dalal Lama into it while building such an epic blaze!

We lived only a few minutes from the school, so I know this is what happened. Given my state when she found me, she rushed me to the ER to have my shoulder x-rayed and have me examined by an expert. After the doctor initially checked me out and had me x-rayed, he had my mother leave the room, stood up on a stool, and pressed down on my supposedly fractured clavicle with all of his substantial weight. This was almost as painful as that initial shock of pain from the injury. I don't know what that nutjob was thinking, but looking back on it, it's the dumbest thing I think I've ever seen a doctor do. I'm not sure why he did that, but in retrospect, I'm not even sure my clavicle was broken in the first place, and it seems like he was trying to actually break it himself. He didn't succeed of course, because he gave up, and gave my mother a line about how my bone resembled a green sapling that can't be literally broken, only bent. FYI, I was never afforded any anesthetic.
Regardless, a few days later, after I was in a sling and brace, forced to sleep upright to avoid re-injury of the shoulder, someone told me that the reason for my bad luck on that day was that it was Friday the 13th. I looked, and sure enough, that's the day it happened. That was my initiation into knowledge of that superstition. It's been a tough row to hoe since then avoiding belief in such nonsense, but this story is the truth, or at least as close as I'm honestly able to reproduce it after all these years.
That was a well turned story. Once I thought I stubbed my toe in the middle of the night as I was using my aunts' outhouses as a kid. Upon coming back inside to the light I noticed I'd shore my toenail off on my left big toe all the way back to the knuckle.
It never grew back and I started getting an ingrown toenail on the other foot in my late 20's, well pop that guy went too (of my own painful volition this time) and my toes haven't been happier.
Awesome history lesson! I wish more people knew history like this. So many do not understand that the things we deal with on a daily basis have origins hundreds or thousands of years in the past.
I'm a couple o beers too early to understand. I've got to pause and catch up..... I'm back... So, the video is really about why we dread Mondays.
i'm about as drunk as i should be on a wed-nes-day even-ing and... i dunno what's going on. the words are english, i understand them, i know what they mean individually, but the combinations are nonsensical.
You sir, are exactly the type of gentleman and scholar that I enjoy sitting around the fire with, enjoying a couple brewskis. Tis a darn crying shame it shall never happen.
Love it when Uncle Bumblefuck does his story telling :-)

Ps.
What was that un-subscribe thing about anyway?
I do wonder if he's waiting to show a drop in membership just to see what the algorithm analytics might do/show.. y'know, for science!
In the latest round of cost saving the Canadian Radio and Television Commission (CRTC) approves the merger of the History & Fireplace Channels!
But I only asked if you wanted coffee or tea............
@apoxx - 😂 Or: "Sir, this is a "Wendy's "
@@cmans79tr7 No. This is Patrick.
I don’t get it
Excellent. Boybyou surely had me absolutely enthralled. I was waiting for the final ooh yeah. Nope same historic story. You did it better than most. Years back. The Friday part is not as important as the lessons learned past. Good work. You rock.
History taught this way is so much better than what I heard in my classes!
What a fuckin masterpiece. This is like that tv channel in the 90s that showed a fire and played soft music to lull you into a slumber. Bravo partner, keep your stick in the ice.
it's bad luck to be superstitious
Super cool man, History like you've never heard it. nicely sown together and very interesting stuff. Thanks!
God is a jealous god because we are inclined to make idols out of silver and gold.
yea i didnt really agree with Ave's take on that part. (still trying to wrap my head around the rest so I'm not sure if i agree or disagree yet😂)
(Edit) - ok i think i misunderstood what Ave was saying. After further thought, I think Ave might have been pointing out that god is saying that magi and the occult exist....i.e. if they didn't exist he wouldn't need to be jealous and warn us away from them? I'm not the brightest bulb so sometimes it takes me a while to work thru things
Good one on you, You expressed the history in a very fine and accurate manor. Kudos.

Apparently having an AvE sticker makes you a part of a secret club. Landed at my home airport and saw a tool case with a sticker on it, and being a fellow member of the brotherhood of the traveling tool box, I had to come over and show him the same sticker I had on my laptop.
I started watching this at 6AM EST, just got home from telling people that their heatpump has a cracked heat exchanger and needs replaced, with threats of EPA violence, 😂, its now 7:30 PM EST and great googamooga what a wealth of knowledge you are, please write a book brother.
When i get burned at the stake at 77 for owning things and being unhappy, ill rest well knowing that the ancient skills arent dead yet.😂😂😂
