Nothing shows the relentless passage of time like a new Internet Historian upload.

If you think the Berlioz story is insane it goes even deeper. He was so obsessed with Harriet at one point that he used to stalk her, book hotel rooms next to her so he could spy on her. His first mental breakdown was when he found out she was having an affair with her manager. And the reason why she didn’t reply to his letters and why they eventually divorced is because he spoke French and she spoke English, they literally couldn’t understand each other the entire time. The only reason she acc agreed to marry him is because he poisoned himself infront of her, she then in shock said she’d marry him, then he whipped out the antidote from his pocket. The fucking OG gaslighter.
Also I’m a musician and I wish you would’ve talked about the 20th century cos there was some pretty crazy stuff that went on then but great vid!

Honestly can't tell if Historian genuinely became passionate about the theatre and wanted to share it with us or if he's just been too deep into Wikipedia again

[mtorheads]

My high school stage production teacher fell into the pit, 8 feet down, directly onto his right knee (this man was 6' 8" and 300 lbs) and broke his leg in 3 places and completely shattered his knee. He was out for the rest of the year but recovered after surgery and is still teaching. Shouts out to Mr. N and the Flagler auditorium.

"I'd smash my tools if I could make the art as it is in my head" is a sentiment i have seen in every artist i've ever known regardless of medium

[Ghillieman]

Kinda crazy how this man can virtually disappear for half a year to a year and come back and drop a video and get over a million views in less then 24 hours

I love how Internet Historian is slowly morphing into just Historian

[DILFDylF]

"But sir, we're supposed to do penis inspection day today." has to be the most juvenile thing to ever make me laugh aloud.

[enragedkaiser]

Berlioz’s plan had me in tears. History is incredible, not even the best comedy writer could come up with something so hilarious.

[ColinColtrane]

ah yes. that time of the year where we maybe get a new internet historian video.

[kalvinbaxter]

The moral of Berlioz’s story is if you love someone enough, all you have to do is:
- get rejected by them many times
- write a song about them
- fall in love with someone else
- get cheated on by them
- plot to kill them, their lover and their mother for some reason, along with killing yourself
- fail to do any of that and go home
- smoke opium and write more songs
- have her attend your concert and fall in love with you

And for good measure, cheat on her with the housemaid.

15:00 sweet Jesus I was not ready for this. My husband fell into an orchestra pit in 2019 during a production. Broke his back. Changed our lives. I haven’t been able to go back to the theatre since and I cry when I see people about to fall, possibly fall, and actually fall. Uncontrollably. Thought I was doing better and thinking of seeing a production, nope. Not after this. I’m thankful I was able to figure it out at home and not after I was seated with hundreds of strangers.

[Huggbees]

You mean you can watch people act and sing without an internet connection? I swear man you're making this stuff up.

[BionicBurke]

As an audio engineer with 2 decades experience in live theatre... this is 100% accurate.

[The_Andyman]

This feels like an Internet Historian video I would watch in a dream

[JakePCP]

Awesome video, as per usual Mr. Historian. Fun fact about Shakespeare's globe shown around the 14 minute mark. Its an open-top theatre so people standing in the yard are exposed to the elements, whilst those further back in the more expensive seats are not. It was also not uncommon for people in the galley to urinate over the side, onto the spectators below. So if someone in London ever asks if you 'want to suffer for Shakespeare' think twice before you take them up on the offer...

“Everyone told him to quit music, but he just wouldn’t hear it!”
My goodness, that’s perfect. Lol

[ToastyMB]

A new internet historian upload is like reaching a checkpoint in a game

[SaltySparrow]

This video is a visual representation of the Wikipedia rabbit holes I go through every night. Amazing.

[bransonlong]

Unironically, this is the most bizarre and disorganized internet historian video to date. Man couldn’t follow a topic for more than a couple of minutes and it was just a total fever dream. What a call from grace honestly
