Thanks for watching everyone! Hope you liked this episode! (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞ To those asking, from what I could find in my research the “Jack the Giant Killer” story isn’t connected to Jack and the Beanstalk like the fables we cover today are. However, they DO feature the same characters in their archetypal roles. “Jack” is the name of many young, male protagonists in many English fairy tales who also share similar character traits. Gogmagog is also used as the name of many giant characters. I’ll explain this in more detail in the episode where I break down Jack the Giant Killer!

TBH This is one that I never heard the whole story. I knew about the beans being thrown out the window. The stalk growing. Jack climbed it. He came back down followed by the giant. The stalk got chopped down, and the giant falling. Maybe I didn't remember the rest? I guess it held no interest for me

I think the man eating giant in the clouds represents God and the deception involving beans is for you to learn through loss. Sure, you traded a far more valuable cow to get them, but if your suffering malnourished brain can make it back to Earth with some of that philosophical treasure, you could start a cult of some sort and learn to conduct profitable business. Of course you chop down the beanstalk so the giant can't reach earth. Having God follow you back down to Earth would likely result in some world ending apocalypse.

Actually, back when Jack Spiggins was written, central heating wasn't a thing. So it wasn't unusual for family members to share beds to stay warm during cold winter nights. Most likely Granny telling Jack about him being "a good bedfellow" means that he's not hogging the sheets, performing Dutch Ovens or snoring. Granted, some shenanigans might've been going on but most likely it was just them sharing a bed to stay warm.

Even in the late 1980s when I was a student in Manchester (UK) i met neighbours living in a 2 room flat with 5 children. When my flat mate and I moved we gave them the 2 ex army beds we had bought for our bedsit. The wife was in tears of happiness. The whole family had been sleeping in 1 double bed.

Back in the day, most families slept in one bed together, so it’s not weird that Jack and his Grandma would have been “bedfellows”. Saying he was a good bedfellow just meant he didn’t kick her at night or steal the blankets. Sounds creepy to us today, but there’s nothing weird there in historical context. Love your channel... keep up the great work!

A couple of interesting notes to this origin. The surname of the first Jake story is Spriggan, and Spriggans are Fairy sprites from Cornwall. So the original story may have more to do with the stories of Fairies that proliferated in the earlier days of what was to become the British Isles, than at first appears. Secondly, Gogmagog is the legendary giant of Albion, who was defeated by Corineus, who was granted land for this feat, which became Cornwall. So, Cornwall twice for origin place. Lastly, and doubtfully coincidental, Gog and Magog were the demon spirits that King Solomon defeated to secure the safety of his peoples and kingdom. So the original tale of Jack and the Beanstalk may be so strange because it may have a lot more allegories in it, and you could think of it more along the lines of one of Dante's stories, than just a strange, old piece of fiction.

I forget his name, but an architect in the 1920s tried finding King Arthur's burial site, which according to legend it was underneath a church, using the same method of construction as the church builders of the 6th century, which is when King Arthur supposedly existed. Unfortunately, the Church of England who was the owner of the plot he was investigating (he found evidence of the crypt mentioned in the legends, by the way, just no bones) thought that his method of using math to calculate exactly the location of the tomb was devil worship and banned him from investigating ever again.

When the giant's wife hides him in her oven, in her skirts, or in her kettle/cauldron, those were all sexual metaphors. When the giant smells English blood he isn't really smelling BLOOD, he's smelling sex in the room and ready murder the intruder for it.

Sometimes a giant can figuratively represent a demon or overwhelming lifestyle sin in someone’s life or an outside bully. So if the fairy represented someone like say The Angel of the Lord, it would have been God telling Jack not to be caught up in the same lifestyle sin his dad was into...to kill it and remove any chance of going back to the giant of his familial sins...or remove the outside bully possibly by this story. If that’s it, either one of those interpretations could possibly be the moral of the story, eh? Unless one looks for a moral of a story, a lot of times it can’t be found because it’s purposefully hidden for fear of reprisal.

I was right. (Could’ve done without the incest and harem but that literally still fits with KidMe’s assumptions.)”

I like the version with the backstory, it makes the giant into a more of a real villain. In the other versions, it seems more like he's a victim of a break in and burglary. Always thought Jack deserved to be punished, would've given the story a moral. Also, how did the giant in those stories know about the smell of Englishmen? Was it commonplace for them to just show up and try to rob him? Where'd he get the recipe for bone bread? Someone needs to write about that!

@Taylor Edwards It's pretty straight forward. Most adaptations take out the really messed up stuff in the book like the Wicked Witch of the West sent wolves, crows, bees, and eventually the Winged Monkeys to kill Dorothy and her friends and the Wicked Witch of the East wasn't her sister nor did the Wicked Witch of the West didn't try to avenge the East Witch's death. She wanted the silver shoes when she saw them on Dorothy's feet after the Winged Monkeys couldn't kill Dorothy. And the Wicked Witch of the East cursed the Tin Woodsman's axe to chop off parts of his body until he was entirely made of tin. And a part the Tin Woodsman had to kill a bobcat to save the queen of field mice and the Cowardly Lion had to kill a monster to save the animals in the forest and become their king. It also gave us a back story about the Winged Monkeys where they were just causing pranks until they did one on a prince and his fiancee decided to tie their wings together and drown them in a river until they plead for her to spare them mercy while they were drowning and she did, by enchanting them to be slaves to a golden cap and whoever wore it.
