Je me suis bien amusé! C'est très imaginatif et plutôt bien fait je trouve, assez complet abordant la révolution dans son ensemble avec ses personnages et événements les plus rélévants! Ils n'ont même pas oublié les jacobins, la brioche fatale d'Antoinette! Oui, il est vrai que c'est bien chez le "Jeu de Paume" qui les nouveaux droits furent déclarés! Perspicace, intelligent, inventif et plein d'humour! Bravo, c'est une petite révolution dans l'ennuie de l'enseignement! Dommage qu'en France aujourd'hui l'irrésponsabilité et l'inconséquence des hommes politiques on mis un sérieux embargo sur son avenir! La prochaine révolution se fera de nouveau dans le sang afin de botter certains "nuisibles" de hors! Vite! il faut dépouisserer les guillontines!

[@kurackurackurac]

I dislike infotainment, but this video is quite a stroke of genius nonetheless. Bad Romance, with it's dark techno-industrial beat and it's harrowing dread and doom voicing is a perfect backdrop for a theme as harrowing as the French Revolution. Kudos to whoever made this video, they deserve all the million and a half views of it.

fun fact: 'let them eat cake' isn't actually said by marie antoinette, it was said long before she came to france. it was just associated with her by those who wanted her gone. i know the video didn't say she's the one who said it but i just wanted to share :)

This is the best video parody by the historyteachers duo, for the following reasons: 1) good historical detail, 2) the additions of famous art works, historical documents, and live action scenes depicting the historical period are well interspersed with Amy Burvall''s performance (not always the case in other videos; see the Blondie "Call Me" parody on Charlemagne, for example), 3) great matching of the rhythms of the song with the wording of the concepts, people and events.
