Loki's Shenanigans - Norse Mythology Explained

Hey, if you wanna learn about the time Loki got in trouble for stealing Sif's hair and ended up helping create Thor's hammer, or the time he had to seduce a horse and ended up birthing Sleipnir, then you probably should've watched the actual video before reading this description because I kinda just explained it all.

Thanks to Adam B from Ludohistory for helping me with my research. Check out his channel!

When you try to draw an 8-legged horse from side-profile, but it just looks like you tried to draw a regular horse and failed.

[SanjayMerchant]

0:57 "I wonder how I can ruin this situation for myself?"

And that just about sums up Loki.

[dr.bright]

I remember that. Thor was supposed to be gifted a two handed warhammer but because Loki, I mean the mysterious fly, was harassing the dwarves one of them cut the handle in half and left it a little shorter than intended

[hydraman]

It still kills me that even thousands of years ago, people understood irony.
Like, you made a god tier weapon that can destroy anything! But you’re disappointed that the handle is a tad short 🤣

[noviibutnotactive]

I honestly love how you portrayed Freyja in the second half of this video, lady just can't catch a break!

[ovnvffb]

I like how Loki’s fingers move when they talk

[dingletun]

Funniest part is that Loki is suppossed to be the scapegoat, so everyones discrimination towards Loki seems real ironic to me

[JSmusiqalthinka]

I love how, in the first story, Loki's gifts are explained through infomercial parodies, like they're trying to sell them on how good their gifts are...but then Brokk is basically like, "yeah sorry about the last one but here they are".

Presenting the Contest between Loki and the Dwarves as a series of Informercials is the best thing I’ve ever seen. Bravo!

[joelkinds]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Loki's shenanigans the source/ground cause of like 80% of what happens in Norse mythology?

[allonzehe]

These are some of the best videos on all of YouTube, "Frank." I look forward to all your mythology videos, amazing stuff.

[solla]

absolute delight. thank you jake for your service. we have to take classes in norse myth in my country so trust me when I tell you that you are saving a hel of a lot of Icelandic high schoolers by making these.

[johnprotagonist]

I love how lokis looks are based on that one engraving on a runestone, which is the only depiction of him from the viking age

[alexanderfriberg]

"Loki returned accompanied by an 8 legged foul" Shows drawing of a normal legged foul

[ramshacklerozza]

Loki literally causes Ragnarok, it doesn't surprise me that he's as prevalent as he is in the mythology

[acestillwell]

Fun fact; at 4:01 when Odin is nervous of Thor, that's for good reason; because Thor is stronger than Odin. Thor, while being the god of lightning, is also thought to be the god of strength, meaning he could overpower Odin.

[paperswan]

Loki: I promise I'll always be a good friend and never betray you guys

Loki 0, 001 seconds later: Oh hi Balder, you're looking very murderable today

[Daxyl]

"Oh Loki! You're back! Good job on making sure the master builder couldn't finish the wall so we didn't have to pay him."
"No problem Odin. Wanna mount my son?"
"WHAT?!"
"I asked if you would like this eight legged horse."
"Oh sure, that's pretty cool! Where'd it come from?"
"Remember when I said I was gonna distract the master builder's stallion by-"
"I HAVE SUDDENLY LOST ALL INTEREST IN THIS HORSE'S ORIGIN!!!"

[guacotaco]

The collective reactions when Loki says "what does the master builder have to do with anything" is hilarious

[jankowalsk]

Noone:
Loki: *oh Baldur you’re looking very murderable today*
