So i was finishing your whole video library when this video auto played and i thought to myself, "did i miss this one somehow?" and I just realized it was just added an hour ago. Anyways, I just thought it was a nice little treat that there was a new video right after i finished all your other ones.

[@Briefed_Mythology]

[@Briefed_Mythology]

haha thank you and I hope you stick around 🫡

[@MRSROBINC231]

Oh I’m definitely gonna be around! I had to subscribe and you had me cracking up 😂 with some of the clips you insert in your videos! That piece you did on Hercules was something else! He was way worse than the biblical Samson! I always wondered why Hera hated him so much because Zeus had plenty of affairs & children. I guess the thought of unknowingly breast feeding one of Zeus side babies was more than she could bare! 🤭🤭

[@luna7207]

Early squaaaaad. I am always looking forward to your uploads!

[@Briefed_Mythology]

early squad report 🫡

[@allanbaker3958]

BTW, LORE CONTINUITY, Grandpa Perceus turned Atlas into a stone mountain with Medusa's head. And by the time Hercules showed up, Atlas is de-stoned. Anyone ever stop to think on that one?... Like, literally, Atlas just destoned himself over time.

[@Briefed_Mythology]

it just doesn't make any sense and is a case of greek mythology multiverse haha two popular tales that directly contradict each other

Greek Mythology stories are always entertaining.. but let's face it, It's THE VOICE that makes these stories pop!

[@fendisaintlaurent4257]

Hercules was a Nephilim.

[@alba..8479]

Was he though, or is this a person observation

[@fendisaintlaurent4257]

@@alba..8479 He was considered a "Demi-God". Meaning he is a hybrid. If the fallen angels came and set themselves up as gods and took wives and had hybrid offspring who we know as the Nephilim and they had great physical stature and power, along with being the ones mentioned as the men of renown and the heroes of old then it's not an observation it's a fact. These beings were the fallen angels and their hybrid demonic offspring the Nephilim.

[@alba..8479]

@fendisaintlaurent4257 thanks for explaining, and it's an astute observation

[@pyktukasplays4945]

​@@fendisaintlaurent4257Different mythology though. If those stories were connected, then Heracles could have been considered a nephilim. But he wasn't a character from the Bible.

[@Dovahkiin0117]

Or just some guy who was built different back in the day and the stories just got wilder each generation

[@phillipshepherd1465]

A nephilum. "Heroes of old, men of renown".

11:10 dawg sleeping on fire bars 😭

[@melbaangel420]

I'm so glad I saw you uploaded a new video 💜

[@katarinatibai8396]

Hera's glory... The name was maybe a bad omen because Hera herself was full of rage and madness. Zeus changing his name into Heracles was a self vorfilling prophecy.

[@Briefed_Mythology]

hmmmm never heard that take. that is so, so so interesting. really first time hearing that. I love it

[@gasmegalodonc]

Greek here, your video is very good you pronounce the names and spell them well there's just a bit of inaccuracies in the video when Herakles had to bring back the Cerynitian Hind and the Erymanthian boar back to King Eurystheus and you didn't mention Herakles' cousin Theseus stopping him from jumping off a mountain after the death of his family. Very solid story non the less

[@Briefed_Mythology]

Ptolemy Hephaestion, New History Book 2 (summary from Photius, Myriobiblon 190) (trans. Pearse) (Greek mythographer C1st to C2nd A.D.) : "It was Aphrodite who, because of Adonis whom both she and Herakles loved, taught Nessos the kentauros (centaur) the trap with which to snare Herakles."
