The myth of Loki and the master builder - Alex Gendler
Рет қаралды 2,477,010
4 жыл бұрынDive into the Norse myth of how Loki tricked a stranger into building the great wall of Asgard to keep the realm safe from giants.
--
Asgard, a realm of wonders, was where the Norse Gods made their home. There Odin’s great hall of Valhalla towered above the mountains and Bifrost, the rainbow bridge, anchored itself. Though their domain was magnificent, it stood undefended from the giants and trolls who sought to destroy them. But a stranger appeared and made the gods an offer. Alex Gendler details the myth of the master builder.

@Orrinn123 4 жыл бұрын
TheSimon253 You can’t really write how you pronounce it but in Icelandic it’s written Freyja which is the correct one since almost everything that has to do with this stuff (I think it’s called Norse Mythology in english) is taken from a book called Snorra-Edda which is a book written by an Icelandic author named Snorri Sturluson somewhere around 1300. So I think that the Icelandic pronounciations are the correct ones but I could be wrong

Neat myth (especially funny what Loki did) But I do feel bad for the giant. He did everything fair and square, even agreeing for the deal that was meant to guarantee his loss. And yet when he pointed out God's cheating, they killed him with cold blood.

It is somehow kinda unfair that only loki, the one suggesting the idea, got to fix the mistake alone when all the Gods had all agreed to Loki clever ideas at the beginning. Makes me respect him more as a hero he truly is. Without him Asgard would never got that wall built. Thanks for this video. Love your mythology series

Odin wanted to get more wisdom to become more powerful (Odin was not long King of Gods and so Not confident of His Powers) so he visited Mimir, a giant, who has been known for great knowledge and wisdom. Odin pretended to be a normal human being. When Mimir and Odin met Mimir told Odin that He gains his wisdom by drinking water Out of his pond. Odin asked for Mimirs permission to Drink of it too but He didnt allow it, except He is willing to sacrifice one eye for it.Odin did so without thinking of a Seconds. In the moment he Cut off His eye, Mimir knew that the man in front of him was a God. Mimir and Odin became Close friends, giving each Other advice when they needed it.
