In A Minute: THE MAHABHARATA

They said it couldn't be done. They said "it's twelve times longer than the iliad and the odyssey combined!" To that I say WHATEVER MAN IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE COMPREHENSIVE IF YOU GOTTA GO FAST

honestly I feel kinda bad I couldn't squeeze in even one reference to Karna. That dude was fully qualified to be the protagonist, it's just his bad luck he ended up the Powerful Rival instead. Poor guy!

I had a great time making this in-a-minute summary! Let us know if you'd like to see more! And as always, tune in on Friday for our Regularly Scheduled Not-Short Content!

How to go fast through the Mahabharata:
1) avoid having to pronounce anyone's name as much as possible

[juniperberryyyy]

Rappers Eminem was too afraid to diss:
1) Red
2) The "side effects may include" voice at the end of medicine adverts

[RakhiSingh-kjok]

Red: "Everybody dies except for the people we like."
Me: cries in karna😭

[pranatisivapuram]

"Krishna calls him a whiny little baby for 700 stanzas"
I'm crying

[middensommer]

never before has Red lived up so greatly to the title that my mom gave of “that one youtube lady who talks really fast.”

[Xidnaf]

this has got to be a record of some sort

[nabongobong]

"It's fine, just do it. Source: I'm the universe"
- Krishna, Bhagavad Gita

[alkapatel]

Krishna : Just do it
Arjun : what is the source ?
Krishna : I AM THE UNIVERSE 🌻

[SchutzmarkeGMBH]

378 words a minute. That's only just short of the 388 words per minute in the fastest part of Eminems "Rap God"

"How to Speak as Fast as Possible" with Red

[themoonkeeper]

'Krishna calls him a whiny little baby for seven hundred stanzas'...

Me as an older sibling: Understandable.

[purplewarrior]

"If the story was as simple as a King lost his kingdom and then fought for it, it wouldn't be an epic"

-Amarchitra Katha.

[dragatus]

Watched it at 0.5 speed so I could actually follow what was going on. Side effect: it made Red sound drunk.

[kikml]

The best part of this whole thing is "Krishna calls him a whiny little baby for 700 stanzas"

[anishka]

"Everybody dies except for the people we like."
Me : Not everyone 🥺
Karna, Abhimanyu, Ghatotkacha, Dronacharya, Eklavya, Bhishma Pitamah. RIP(*flowers*)

[umlbxxq]

Eninem's been real quite since this banger dropped.

[thomasderosso]

0.25 - About to pass out.

[nadiasilver]

*Us:* * years of telling Red she talks too fast in videos *
*Red:* "Blue, hold my mead."

[theextreme]

The friendship of Arjun and Krishna is pure gold❤️

I'm reading a peered reviewed thing for a college assignment about the Mahabharata and the first 5 pages explains that it is so long it can't be accurately summarized. I think Red did a pretty good job
