Description: Early in the morning of time, there was no sand, no grass, no lapping wave. There was no earth, no sun, no moon, no stars. There was Niflheim, a waste of frozen fog, and Muspelheim, a place of raging flames. And in between the fog and fire, there was a gaping pit - Ginungagap... Let's find out what emerged out of Gunungagap. Thanks for watching.

[@hardc00re10]

I wonder when they will talk about Jesus like a myth and put him in the avengers

[@fullup91]

I give it 40 years.

[@DerPoly]

Lucifer, God, Kane etc are DC Characters, so Moses and Jesus will be in the next Justice League Movie hahaa

[@jkw6487]

Wow, relaxing. The sound of that fire crackling is a really nice touch awesome job! 😀

[@cessily89]

Agreed! The fire is my fav 😊

[@perlaeyvars1633]

Greetings from an Icelandic person in Norway, this was very fun.. particularly all the funny pronunciations 🤩 I’d love to hear you read some of the Poetic Edda like Völuspá (the wisdom passed from the witch to Odin inside of Ýmir’s scull) or Hávamál which were basically life advice/rules/philosophies 🤓

[@zeynepsenturk9766]

I found your asmr channel by pure luck and really love it 💙This is the exact type of asmr that I want👍🏻

[@LetsFindOut1]

Thats awesome to hear zeynep. Thanks for watching

[@gibs0345]

I deeply enjoy the Norse videos, thank you so much!

[@onelove919]

Your voice is heaven. Warm and calming and smooth. I’m so glad I’ve stumbled across your channel. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏼👌🏼👍🏻👍🏻

[@GamerGeek23]

This one's gonna be good. Love this subject.

[@takekammuri]

This really cool and i love the Norse legendarium. Small tip though: J in the Nordic languages and also in German is read like an English Y. So Jotunn does not begin with a sound like in "John", but with a sound like in "young". Think for instance how you say Jägermeister...

[@hardc00re10]

takekammuri lol as i Swede i have never thought about this, but it’s very true. You guys do say Djohn instead of John, djuice, djungle etc.

[@loranneubaum7721]

As a Norse pagan I just wanna say thank you so much for this. 💖

[@HN-kr1nf]

so you follow the old norse religion?

[@loranneubaum7721]

N H yes I do. Happy Yule!

[@HN-kr1nf]

@@loranneubaum7721 that's cool.what does that entail? and how did the knowledge get passed down? in writing or some other form?

[@loranneubaum7721]

N H same as any other religion it entails knowing the gods are here to give you strength and knowledge but being aware that the knowledge is earned. And like the video says the knowledge was passed down through writing, stories, and those willing to worship the gods even though it is an old religion. There are things that I do not know but I am learning more and more each day by doing research and talking to fellow pagans. We just vibin with the gods. 😂

[@HN-kr1nf]

@@loranneubaum7721 so were you raised into this religion or did you find it yourself? (sorry for all the questions i'm just really curious)

[@duggsimpson6107]

My heritage is from the Scandinavian areas so I always love learning more about Norse Mythos

[@TobasscoJelly]

Those crispy books!!!

[@kaleugalde3146]

You should read by the fire more often or add rain more often I love that sound.

[@valoriel4464]

So glad you recorded this in soft-spoken, my favorite style. Wonderful work, thanks.

[@sophieb7170]

Just bought an online course in Nordic Mythology so thought I would have a bit of background before I begin. This book is so beautiful! Really enjoyed the video 👍🏻

[@mrjackson3426]

if you spun a globe and where your finger landed you told a few facts about the country,that would be a good video

[@mattball420]

@Chandler Burse or he could just do the spin first and then learn some stuff iff cam and do the rest of the video after, it would still be a legit random pick but to us it would still feel like he talked about it in the same moment

[@mattball420]

@Chandler Burse sounds like you mean he should find out on camera and edit out the resesrch or something, he could just do it all off camera and then make it like any other video lol not hard to put the intro into the video, that much is literally just drag and drop

[@amywaddell3579]

Wow, you have the most soothing voice. I am hooked! Lol

[@jesseleger630]

Great video man, always enjoy these stories with you and beautiful images

[@AmethystHypnotherapy]

I love to have someone read stories as asmr. And this is an amazing topic! Thank you! Great job 🦄🐉❄️✨

[@nestar2009]

Thank you always for this relaxing gift

[@snupluguff6731]

These videos always give me instant tingles, I love that I can learn so many interesting things AND get ASMR at the same time. PS, your voice is absolutely fantastic!

[@thelittlemrs]

I really like your variety of books and topics. Feels a bit like my own personal library collection. A bit of everything 👍

[@stone_fruit]

Your content is exceptional - this is the kind of ASMR that I seek out but can rarely find. Thank you for everything you do!

[@LetsFindOut1]

thanks so much desiree

[@FireBrigadeAGoGo]

You set such a high standard with your videos that I've really not ventured to any other creators for some time. Nice work man!

[@LetsFindOut1]

wow thank you

[@chrisd6736]

Excellent vid on an awesome subject!

[@KelpyJee]

Just wanted to say I love your content, and to keep up the good work brother.

[@lplattis13]

The fire in the background is life☺ 😴literally cannot end my day without listening to your channel for a bit 😎

[@TheSpanishElisabeth]

I feel asleep in 10 minutes, you're amazing

[@msblondemindy]

it's amazing to relax and gain knowledge. great content ❤

[@melissaovadare]

Love it!!! Good job!!!

[@Jake-st5mm]

By luck I stumbled upon your channel. I've been listening to ASMR for 5 years and your channel is as good as any.

[@LetsFindOut1]

Thanks jake

[@halluciongen3000]

The myth videos are the best imo :)

[@Debbie338]

Yes! More, please.

[@grag2612]

These are my favorite types of videos by you

[@LetsFindOut1]

Thanks for the feedback carter

[@JonSnowIII]

I can’t recommend listening to this after a 12h shift, whilst on your way home... You’ll end up falling asleep and then have to take the train aaaaall the way back. So... great video - not great when you’re in transit.

[@dewdguy6604]

I have been seeing this video recommended to me for a while and decade to check it out; I am very glad I did! So relaxing and soothing 😌 I have subscribed and will be back often!

[@LetsFindOut1]

thanks dewd!

[@birth1998]

Please do more videos on mythology I love Norse, Celtic , Egyptian, Roman, Greek, and Japanese mythology

[@bomethia7412]

So glad to have found this video, I found out recently a lot of my ancestors were Norse or Viking people so to learn more about it while also being relaxed and listening to some 100/10 asmr is great

[@LetsFindOut1]

thanks bobby

[@jonnytorres2473]

Already know this is going to be fire! Always extremely grateful for these videos bro ❤️ much love ❤️

[@terrowincheeseman5228]

HEHE... because he's sitting by a fire lol

[@gooniesneversaydie3699]

19:13 😁 me too man, me too.

[@rodrigomuniz-martinez4137]

Now I Can Relax And Learn!

[@lovechild9410]

Interesting and relaxing 👌🏼

[@AlexiHelligar]

Wonderful!

[@sisterwhiskey8321]

Love the way you have that slow swagger bro.. But I believe you could do a dried paper book and fire background and tapping and whispers.. Love you bro, not telling what to do , I jus think I believe in your work.. Whisper you can do it ..

[@alexthedog]

Well, all my goodness. That was nice. Good time

[@sisterwhiskey8321]

Love the fire burning should go along with a dried up note book , please do that and with whispering . this will be the best you done if you do this.. Please do.

[@valoriel4464]

Interesting, I find soft-spoken preferable. Glad he does both.

[@Leprecaun123]

Really like your videos. Just a little fact: Jotun is pronounced more like yotun. Although it isn't really, because a J in Norse based languages is actually quite different to an English Y but it's the closest I can get to explain it. (I speak and read some Norwegian although often I butcher it) but keep the videos coming. I find every one of them as interesting as each other.

[@LetsFindOut1]

thanks for the advice j

[@jssandler]

No offense but this children's book from 1960 is like 1,000 times better than Marvel's "Thor". Like, I actually know what's going on now.

[@ableryder]

But Marvel's Thor was never meant to be accurate to the myths or the edda, that is a superhero story based on Norse Mythology. That's it.

[@anonymousanonymous340]

woooooooooooosh

[@BrentTheGent1]

Anything written in the Edda's is after catholic church raized UudenMah to the ground and smashed the peoples so are written in a way that makes them nothing more than bedtime stories heavily controlled by TPTB. To get a better perspective if you have a real interest look up #Arith Harger.

[@lordfp85]

Well done!

[@samkeyes2423]

First I just want to say awesome video and thank you for everything you do and second is there any way you could do a few more like these but only whispering? Like the history of wars one or the one with the old book about parts of the Middle East? I would appreciate it sooo much thank you again!

[@nicolsteyn2913]

the single dislike seems a little spicy for such a wholesome video

[@chancebrennecke]

Love these vids, ever read Celtic mythology? Interesting stuff but Greek is still my fav

[@alastairmcculloch7626]

Awesome another video from Rich 😁 You should do a Halo lore ASMR video, that would just br amazing to hear you narrate

[@Debbie338]

Alastair McCulloch That would be. I’ve read every Halo book and there’s so much story to tell.

[@oliviahalbert1123]

Yes. I love everything about this. Every comment I leave is pretty much the same but whatever YOU’RE DOING AMAZING SWEETIE

[@LetsFindOut1]

lol its still nice to read. thanks olivia

[@rses916]

Thanks 😁

[@elainav4771]

"the icy froth of milk flowing from her utters"

[@mikehooton7028]

I’ve always wanted to know about samurai and the colonisation of Japan, could be a good video 🤔🤙🏻

[@cessily89]

Great soundsssszzzzZzzZz😴😪

[@cessily89]

And visuals! Thank you for taking the time to put it all together. Very cool. Can't wait to show the bear cub this one!

[@Joe-ve9xz]

Some of these Norse legends get super dark, like when Thor went on a rampage and killed every giant he could get his hands on in Midgard, or when Loki played a trick on Thor and Odin so they sewed his mouth shut.

[@oplteam9712]

Are you from Canada because I saw your books of Canada book marker in your other video good work as always 👍🏻

[@LetsFindOut1]

lol no. boards of canada is a music group

[@kvable.]

I prefer the book cam videos a lot more

[@notlame8791]

Hey! Looking for a good book to read. What would you say is the most influential book you've ever read?

[@LetsFindOut1]

beyond good and evil

[@pennypoacher6121]

What movie is he talking about?

[@northernthunder7894]

For all my fellow Asatru here. Hail the Æsir Hail the Vanir. Hail the Norns.

[@bloxoblox]

Hail!

[@perlaeyvars1633]

«Hail Nornirnar» or «Hail the Nornir», both work, but «Norns» is not a word

[@pennypoacher6121]

Hahaha says apocalypse [looks up and waits] haha

[@aupendi7910]
