Notes

1. I chose to agree with the analysis that frigga/frigg is the same goddess as freya, and so only refer to her as freya throughout the video.

2. In Loki’s taunts I cut out a lot of lines and merge some of them to make it flow better.

3. I cut out a bunch of the boring myths. Sorry!

This is the lore and the myths and the asmr sleep stories of the vikings! The Entire story of Norse Mythology explained the best Documentary on ASMR Sleep stories of Norse Mythology with Thor, Odin, Freya, Frey, Ragnarok, Asgarde and more! This is NOT about Greek Mythology or the Life Guide or See U in History it is the ENTIRE Story of Norse Mythology not the Story of Human Civilization or the entire history of the world I guess Bill Wurtz.

Before hanging himslef from the Yggdrasil he sacrificed his eye to drink from the Mímisbrunnr just to realise that he needs to impress the Nornir if he wants to know the secrets of the Runes. So he impaled himeslef on a spear and than hanged himself from the world tree, refusing drink and food for 9 days and 9 nights. This is important.

My friend is really into Norse mythology and I knew nothing about the subject. Now I can have a conversation on this subject. Need a follow up with more stories.

[wearedonenow]

Really good job and I hope you continue. Love the subtitles. With kindness and encouragement, two notes: the stone used to sharpen blades is called a "whetstone" not a "wet stone" and the vocal fry can be a little heavy in a few places. Again, this is a good job and I look forward to more.

[arfaouiamine]

Amazing story telling and the sounds design too i can hear you went the extra mile and for that you have my thanks ❤

[agrahams]

The roasting between Loki and Odin is great 😂

[AncientMythology-History]

I truly love your channel. Keep doing the best work.

[Throwd-Off]

Please keep up the videos I love them can't get enough

[tiagomori]

The most fascinating god for me it’s Uller or Ullr, one of Thor brothers, god of the hunt, ski and the winter, unfortunately he is not very know, people call him Ullr the forgotten god, him was one of the only gods that survived the Ragnarok

[tiagomori]

Amazing story telling, should make a video like this about the greek mythology, amazing

[NightTimeStorytellingg]

This bedtime story is a true gift, a moment of tranquility before we drift into dreams. May the night cradle you in its soothing embrace, and may tomorrow's dawn bring you endless possibilities. Sleep peacefully, everyone! 🌌🌠🌌🌠🌌🌠

[kevinbailey]

I love how loki is always Tom Hiddleston in these kinds of videos.

[tevindaniels]

I would watch more vids like this about other mythologies

[jameskrause]

I am not seeing any reference to Ve being renamed Loki. Most of the lore I am reading states that Loki was the offspring of Fárbauti and Laufey. Odin and Loki are said to not be related, but Odin considered Loki a Blood-Brother. Is there some reference I am missing?

[mike]

this is a great video, 370 subs?! thats unreal

[Kishla-fo]

This video makes a good movie or comic book

[CommanderShepard-wqwo]

I’ve been listening/reading about Norse Mythology for a while, and I have NEVER heard of Vili and ve becoming Hoenir and Loki.

Can someone well versed in Norse Mythology, shed some light on that? Thanks

[varupfashu]

Fascinating, i know this is a myth, but i would rather belive in this, then into the myth stories of religion today, with human God like and jesus...

[cam-inf-w]

I dig this a lot. The vocal fry is just a lot. And the music a bit too loud. No hate, youre a good story teller.
