My parents always told me the original story of Rapunzel when I was small cx

I once read a version of Rapunzel that was extremely touching, and it tied all the lose ends in the original tales. Have you ever wondered why Rapunzel was locked in something so visible as a tower, as if the witch wanted people to notice? Have you ever wondered wondered she did not cut her hair earlier? Could she really have been that dumb? For me, the following is the true, heartwarming version of the story: The truth is, after the witch took Rapunzel from her parents, she did not know what to do with this child. The witch had never been a mother and did not fancy looking after a useless toddler; the witch even considered selling the child for money. One day, in an attempt to quiet the child's cries, the witch spun a magic spell that the air with lights and music. The most precious smile was given to her in return. And when baby Rapunzel gave her a kiss goodnight that evening, the witch gave up all plans of selling her off. She fell in love with Rapunzel like a mother with an adopted child. Knowing that Rapunzel missed her parents, the witch decided to give Rapunzel's parents a chance to get her back: she locked Rapunzel in a tower that was visible from miles away; if Rapunzel's parents arrived at the tower and called her name, the magic door would open. Not wanting Rapunzel to wait sadly, the witch kept her intentions a secret and told her that the world outside was dangerous. But she knew the child would be bored and lonely, so the witch visited her each day and spent every effort to care for Rapunzel. When Rapunzel said she missed the flowers near her old home, the witch filled the room with petals. When Rapunzel wanted to learn about the outside world, the witch would bring books and teach Rapunzel to read. When Rapunzel kissed her goodnight, the witch kissed her back and tucked her in. While Rapunzel missed her parents, the witch's love made her forget her worries and Rapunzel found joy in every day. She found no enticement to leave the tower. However, days passed, weeks passed, and years passed. Rapunzel's parents still did not come for her. And as time passed on, the witch did not want Rapunzel to leave her. One day, her tower was approached by an adventurous prince. Upon seeing the trapped girl who claimed she did not need any help, he deduced that she must be brainwashed by the witch and immediately resolved to rescue her. He came for her one night and was found by the witch. He rushed to escape with Rapunzel but accidentally fell off the tower with her. Seeing them fall, the witch screamed, "Briar, please!," and a patch of thorns rose up to catch Rapunzel and the prince, breaking their fall. When the prince rode off with Rapunzel, the witch sat in the tower and did not chase after them: Rapunzel was going to finally be reunited with her real family, and the witch did not know if she should be happy or sad. When the prince's horse approached Rapunzel's old home, Rapunzel stopped. She did not recognize the old couple as her family, and she felt out of place when she saw another young girl whom the the couple called their daughter. This was not her home. When she saw them express their love in the form of kisses, Rapunzel was overwhelmed with an urge to go back to the witch, who kissed her goodnight every evening. So Rapunzel turned around, broke free of the prince's entourage, and rode off straight for her own home: the tower. She left her true parents, who did not even love her enough to approach the tower all these years, in exchange for the witch, who loved her more than any mother in the world. Of course, every fairy-tale involves a princess saved by the prince. So this prince changed the story a little ;)

I'm a big tangled fan but original story is awesome specially for adults

"ThE PrEgNaNcY" "Fell into thorns that poked out his eyes" Me: tHiS iS sO bEaUtIfUl

Extra fact: The plant „Rapunzel“, wich the father stole, is a drug. Edit: In the original german Version it’s described that, after the mother got it, she was rlly happy, but after a while she got even more ill and just wanted to have more of the plant. May „Rapunzel“ is just like an artist name.

Knocked up Left to give birth Baby daddy blind Disney got some weird stories Wow thanks for tha likes

Short version: There was a young couple and the pregnant wife wants rapunzel but the husband loves her so much so he go to the garden where the witch that everyone fears owns The wife wants more rapunzels but second time the husband was caught and the witch punished them and said "give me your first child and i will take care of it" they both agreed The child was locked up on a high tower and the witch goes out everynight A prince heard a beautiful voice and saw the witch shouting "rapunzel get down your hair" and prince heard it He decided to scream that and it worked Now he always goes there everynight He became attracted to young rapunzel so they.. ya know.. sucked each other? One day rapunzel asked the witch "why is my belly growing" and thats how the witch knew she was pregnant As punishment she cutted her hair and threw her on the forest The prince shouted it and the witch threw the hair and while the prince is on the tower window now the witch threw him He survived but the thorns blinded him He heard a beautiful voice then rapunzel already gave birth even though she doesnt know what pregnancy is Gosh that cost 1 like

I vividly remember watching the original version, especially the dialogue *"Rapunzel, Rapunzel let down your hair. So that I could climb the golden stairs"*

I like the original tale better even though it’s not very appropriate for kids it’s more exciting to me like if you agree 👍🏽

The Original is better EDIT: for the first time I got 3 likes Wohoo

4:57 Lady: which story do you prefer the original or the Disney version? Me: well .. considering you just told me that Flynn poked his eyes out with thornes I think I might stick with the Disney version 👍

Uhhhh didn’t the grim brothers make the story?!

I mean for me most of the story is like common knowledge except for the PREGNANCY 😱 what a plot twist. Also makes the prince seem like kind of a douche.

I actually like the Disney movie version more because it had more adventure, and exciting plot in it! but I do like the original too because it's more realistic and gruesome ;0

Disney is always good but I feel like this is one of the best Disney movies I've seen so OFC DISNEY

That little moment of realization when I remember that I have read the original one first before I've watched the Disney version. I always thought that the book I read was the copied one, oof...

This is the story line they use in ‘into the woods’

Original is actually way better...

The original story is good, but I personally do like Tangled more. I love how brave Rapunzel is and she is one of my favorite Disney Princesses , how sarcasticly funny Flynn Rider is, the plot is amazing, and the music is wonderful. This film will always have a special place in my heart.

"Fell into thorns and poked out his eyes" SoUndS GoOd.

Again, I already covered this... but thanks for changing your title at least? Still curious where you're getting your ideas and information from though...

I like the origain story. Not gonna lie........

4:22 Wow who'd think she'd give birth to two Muslim boys 😂

I think they changed the original because they had to make a kids friendly version. *cough cough* they couldn’t add the part when suddenly a 16 yr old got children cause they had fun *cough cough*

What's great about the original story, is that Rapunzel WASN'T a princess!

Am I the only one who knew this? I had the original book

Guys it just like a part of a movie called into the woods they featured the same story

I kinda like the original it sounds pretty cool but sad too

if I'd be honest , I'd actually prefer the original tale

Original. That’s not disturbing, it’s just more realistic than Disney. Life isn’t all cupcakes and rainbows kiddies 👍😉

I have watched several of these 'revealing' videos, then I realize: I already know their stories! I loved fairy tales as a kid, but when I 'got my library card', I went searching for more. Then I found the 'real' fairy tale, and learned the truth. And I've shared those real tales with my own kids, and grandkids. So no mystery in my family. But I realize that not every reader searches beyond their depths in search of 'more'. But thanks for sharing.

I knew this story already. Its nice

I'am german so since I was little I had the Brothers Grimm version of all the farytales so... nothing new to me :)

1:23 Rapunzel: *i wasn’t much more than this provincial lifeee* 😂 like if u get it

ohhhhh.... so thats what that messed up story from into the woods came from.....

I have a book about the original story.. And I thought the movie was the original..

I think we read this is class when I was younger 😂 I don’t think they told us about the pregnancy tho 😂😂😂😂🤣

I actually love the original story more than Tangled.

KZfaq :"the true messed up story behind the movie wreck it Ralph" : "that movie is about video games char-" KZfaq :"THE TRUE MESSED UP STORY BEHIND THE MOVIE WRECK IT RALPH

the interesting fact did you know The story of "Rapunzel" is based on the tragic life of Saint Barbara, who is thought to have lived in the third century. The true story of Rapunzel is thought to be about a young woman in Italy named Barbara who was so beautiful that her father locked her away in a tower so no men could get to her. that's it for ice manx23

At 4:22 why are the kids holding the Holy Qur'an btw i'm Muslim😆

Oh yeah, this was in the movie ''Into The Woods''

My mom used to read me the original one with 'thorns that poked out his eyes' as a bedtime story when I was a child. It was morbid a lil bit, but I really liked that story :) Parents are too sensitive nowadays.

3:17 that’s some good editing 🤣

I like the disney movie than the original one because it can be watched by kids

That’s Dark

I like the original story the best xD

Nostalgia, I had a book of the real story but I lost the book long ago. Now I remembered it

I was told the original story when I was a child and had books on it, I think one was a 'ladybird' book, and I loved it! I love the new one too. I think it'd be nice if kids got to experience both versions and choose for themselves instead of being mislead by Disney remakes.

I like the original. I don’t think it’s that disturbing. I also read a graphic novel based on the original and I really liked that one but I also like Disney’s version

i cant imagine how much her hair hurt or smelled or how much she had headaches

I would love to see the original one as a movie. It sounds sad but very intriguing

The original it's dark but has a happy ending Disney way to happy

disney is better because it does not include so many tragic events

someone should make this kinda version for a movie. For adults

Remember how many Disney tales are from Brothers Grimm. Those tales were predecessors for Mother Goose. Beauty & The Beast was originally French tale Animal Bridegroom. Once more we have no 'Happily ever after'. Cinderella in its oldest telling may be of Greek or Egyptian origin.

They should make the original into a movie, like obvi not a kids fairy tale cuz theres pregnancy and stuff in it but like it sounds so good

i want a live action movie with the original tale

I actually heard this story first... WHAT THE HELL?!?!

Im sure i heard this story before the disney tangled was show out but i don't actually remember where i heard it

disney

It's almost like what happened to Rapunzel in the movie "into the woods"

I knew this story before you made this video and before I saw tangled

I actually have a story similar to that friggin garden one: Once upon a time there was a neighbor with fruit trees growing in his backyard. He lived on such a steep incline that the trees were too far away for him to reach and he lived there 20 years without picking a single fruit. Two DAYS ago, my cousin decided to climb the fence, and after hopping over, he picked an entire bowl of escadinias that we all celebrated and shared as a family. Yesterday the neighbor hired some gardeners to chop down both of his fruit trees. The end. True story THAT ***** CHOOPED THEM BOTH DOWN YESTERDAY WHAT THE HECK

Original is the best.

Oh Wow 😯 Look At That Rapunzel She Looks The Same Real Person. 2:32

That was actually the first story I ever heard, the Disney version was shown to me like 5 years later

I fell in love with the Disney versión 😍

Original tale is tragic n way harsh fr kids to watch bt at d same tym original one portrays that deep n pure love which disney's version cn never match!!

Is it bad that I knew the original and was more familiar with it? Minus the pregnancy I knew everything else but still loved the story as a child.

I had to read this for school and had I had to tell the whole story by memory to the class

The best thing in life is dark stories my kinda of entertainment 😂

0:17 is that taylor swift

So a repunzel is a type of flower, it took me this video to find out 😂

I AM STILL IN LOVE WITH THIS MOVIE EVEN AFTER WATCHING THIS LIKE 10 TIMES

Disney

that is no witch it's just mother gother

When I was little my parents told me about the real story. But I never knew she was pregnant nor do i never knew the end

I remember reading the original story when I was a younger child

I prefer the Disney movie it's less inappropriate

Tbh I usually pick Disney but the original is way better.✨⚡️🦋

"Happily ever after fairy tales for every child" had made a very similar story to the original. The only difference was that the witch saw the prince instead of the pregnancy.

I actually had a book that told this story when I was little.

I can't believe I'm saying this but... The original was WAY better

I remember finding this version of the story awhile ago

I wonder how the people who knew THIS was the original felt knowing that they have known this story st a young age.... 🤔

The original

the Disney movie definitely not the original

I always knew about the real version because my grandma told it to me every night I was at her house. When I saw the movie, I was like “excuse me, what...”

The movie called "Into the Woods" will give you the story of rapunzel. Plus the other stories like cinderella, red riding hood, and etc

Me :What??? Like the video

My childhood had been ruined...

That's because the stories never belonged to Disney in the first place. They just made it kid friendly and made the princesses one of their most iconic character's

Dude, I grew UP knowing the original. Except in the story my parents told me at the end Rapunzel WASN’T PREGNANT but the prince did fall for the tower and get blind. Rapunzel ended up wandering in the desert and then she died

Anybody seen John Solo video of this made a month ago. The things basically took the ideas from that video

Disny

100% agree with the beginning

In my version of Rapunzel, she had plenty of stuff to keep herself occupied. She had Netflix, a computer, wifi, knitting needles in medium size, large size, and small size (because Rapunzel loved to knit), a TV, yarn for knitting blankets, toys, dolls, stuffed animals, hats, shawls, purses for Dame Gothel when she went on long journeys to find fruits, veggies, and other essentials that would keep her and Rapunzel happy and comfortable, and sweaters, a sewing machine that she got on her 12th birthday, embroidery thread, sketchpads, crayons, markers, coloring books, and colored pencils. That was my version of Rapunzel modernized.

The Disney because there s nothing sexual in it

disney like 101%
