The Messed Up Origins of Winnie the Pooh | Disney Explained - Jon Solo

[@JonSolo]

Thanks for watching and liking, guys! :) I have some notes after reading your responses! 1. SORRY I mispronounced "Cambridge;" I've honestly never heard someone say the name out loud (prolly because I'm uncultured) and went with a midwest US pronunciation :| 2. The jump cuts were the most efficient way to tell this story from a production standpoint. If you're not a fan of the style I apologize, but considering how much information I would have had to memorize to avoid the jump cutting and how long the recording process would have taken... I have no regrets. 3. Some people were annoyed I was calling Christopher Robin "CR"... I thought this would be less annoying than repeating "Christopher Robin" 200 times, but some guy said he gave me a thumbs down for it... Idk man you can't please everybody ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯ Appreciate all your love and support! Now I've gotta ask... are you excited for the Christopher Robin movie? :)

Forgot A.A. Milne's PTSD from his own war experiences and how before the stories were created, he was distant to his son. Butseeing his son play and playing with his son is how he battled his PTSD and thats how the stories were created.

[@SteveCarras]

And to be technical, PSTD didn't even exist as a term-Battle Fatigue or Shell Shock would've been the earlier terms.

[@cammysmith7562]

As much as I feel sorry for Christopher Robin, I do think the Pooh Stories were a healing method for his father. His father was in both wars and the First World War especially messed him up as it did to so many men. I’m glad he wrote the stories which children and adults alike treasure and still read and watch to this very day. This series is one of my all time story series, it’s simplistic and compelling and the vibes it gives off is one of love and cheer.

[@ziongite]

His father was pretty damn smart actually if you think about it, as an adult we cannot just magically remember what it was like exactly to think as a child, so a lot of stuff we create may not be appreciated by children, so his technique of essentially learning from his son's fantasy world games and using that as stories for his book was very smart, since it's from the mind of a little boy's fantasy imagination, it's obviously going to be enjoyed and understood by other little boys and girls also.

Incest used to be pretty normal back then, royal families around the north, and in places like Egypt, nobles wanted to keep the bloodline “pure.” It is pretty sick. Inbreeding can cause genetic based recessive disorders, and fluctuating facial asymmetry it can even cause loss of immune system functions, and increase cardiovascular risks.

Speaking as someone with this condition, Cerebral Palsy isn’t hereditary, it’s basically a brain injury occurring during or after birth due to various different complications (e.g a bleed on the brain, or lack of oxygen). “Inbreeding” wouldn’t have caused the disability itself, but I’m not sure if it would have had an impact on the development of the foetus or early pregnancy.

While I do feel bad for him, claiming he was "exploited" by his father seems a tiny bit misleading. I mean, all A. A. Milne really did to his son was use him as inspiration. I don't see how he could have had any control over the fame or the resulting teasing.

[@yeowool3358]

Nintendotron64 I feel like his father didn’t have to make it public knowledge tho, that it was about his son. He could’ve easily changed the name, and done everything he did. The father really didn’t know that his series would become so famous, so I don’t entirely blame him.

[@zedek_]

That he was bullied as a child was sad. The resentment he felt as an adult is absolutely whiny and ridiculous, especially when he says he enjoyed the fame as a child. Boohoo, his dad stood on his shoulders, and somehow robbed him the ability to make a name for himself? How?! He's still free to go make something of himself. The fact of the matter is, like most people, Christopher Robin would likely not have amounted to much beyond being a regular salaryman. His current position of fame actually makes it easier for him to go make something of himself. So for me, I guess it is sad, but more because I always thought of Christopher Robin as a sweet person, rather than someone who whines and self-victimizes as an adult.

Pooh, Pokemon, Barbie, Disney Princesses, Teen titans (and other things that i forgot about and other things i remembered but is lazy to type all of it.) were my bloody childhood!! And when i saw this video. My heart just broke of how sad and miserable CR Milne is! A beautiful book with a shadowy past :( If only the people who bullies him would be reversed. They should compliment him for being part of a beautiful and rich book. Heck, maybe the bullies' who bullied CRM read the book but doesn't want to admit it.

it hasn't been a taboo for that long, and rather hilariously Christianity is fine with it (it's not on the list of "bad" and is done multiple times) marrying your cousin hasn't been a taboo for long even today most religious groups allow it, with only laws of the land and recent social changes making it taboo it's not particularly uncommon, and emotions tend not to have a built in mechanism of saying relative = bad quite the opposite due to similarities if not told it's wrong they'll be faster to fall into enjoyable relationships with

[@lunayen]

Um, he's not the first or last person to marry a first cousin. It was something very common back on the day (The British royal family is a notorious example of this) and even now some people do fall in love with their first cousin (or are arranged in marriages to a first cousin).

I'm not saying Christopher Robin didn't have any troubles, it sounds like he did, but what was so sad about it? He seemed to have a decent life, and aside from bullies/low self esteem (which wasn't made out to be that bad here), his story's not sad. He must have been frustrated of being in his father's shadow, and maybe I just missed something, but I'm not following the video and everyone in the comments saying CR had a sad life. If you thought differently, please enlighten me. Certainly didn't need to heed Jon's warning about needing tissues, haha.

[@Victor-li8le]

Jack Eggebrecht Well, he grew up resenting both his parents, and after the death of his father he lost any kind of contact with his mother in the last 15 years of her life, because she didn't want to see him anymore, and had a daughter with cerebral palsy, so while maybe is not the saddest story, is still pretty depressing if you think about it (or atleast it is to me).

He spent his entire childhood growing up watching his parents market a caricature of himself when he was 5 years old and the imaginary friends he made back then. I don't know about you man, but it doesn't really sound like a fun life to live, especially in the 1920s.

Great job on this video. it's sad that something so beautiful as Winnie the Pooh and Friends has such a dark history. Probably the saddest thing to happen to Christopher Robin is the way he died. No one deserves to die from Myasthenia Gravis. My heart goes out to Claire as I know how it feels to watch your father sick from Myasthenia Gravis as my own has it.

[@kate_cooper]

Christopher Robin is my answer to the question, "Who's the most famous person you've ever actually seen in person?" and I highly doubt that answer is going to change unless I ever personally see the Queen. And that's really weird when you consider that he never asked or tried to become famous.

Thank you so much for doing this video! I've loved Winnie the Pooh since I can remember and I didn't even realize that he was based on real events, that blew my mind. You did an awesome job with this

[@ashes2ashes-l8z]

[@Gen_X_Rosey]

Aww, I LOVE Winnie the Pooh (Eeyore's my favorite)! So bummed things were so sad for Christopher Robin. :-(

[@jc1979af]

Christopher Robin is the heir to the 4th largest franchise in the world. The man was pulling in upper six figures a year (if not more). After Winnie the Poo hit mainstream, the man didn't have to work ever again.

[@legomarvelfan893]

Eeyore is my favorite character too👍👍

[@longlivejah4608]

Very sad about his family life though. His dads first cousin is his mom, didn’t have a good relationship with his parents which stayed that way after their death.

[@mysterygirl30011]

Yea that's most celebs also. Most are abused and molested by their own parents. Or worse

[@Image2005]

Watch goodbye Christopher Robin it’s amazing I balled my eyes out I love it it’s the true story and has amazing acting 💕💕

[@emilymalden3310]

I saw a little bit of the movie, the DVD was faulty. The movie Christopher Robin which was about him as an adult was good too.

I read Christopher R. Milne's book The Enchanted Places, where he talks about his childhood and how he became less and less proud of being famous.

[@CelebrityHeart]

I have been a big fan of Winnie The Pooh since I was little. Also, this is how my love of pigs got started.I found this very interesting on how Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin came to be. At first I only knew the beginning. Where a boy saw a bear and decided to name him Winnie. That is it. Thank you for this inside look on Winnie The Pooh. I am 25 years old and I am going to go see the live-action Winnie the Pooh in Theatres in August this year

[@andrewklitz261]

I had a Winnie the Pooh that I carried around everywhere when I was a child and I still love Winnie the Pooh lot of good memories.

[@TheLatiosnlatias02]

What I hate about that are: Pooh bear's gluttony and is just like America and Israel who loot, pillage but in Pooh bear's case, honey in everyone's home and the bees. Piglet who is a coward and inadvertently causes trouble and not to mention kidnapping Roo and posing as Roo at Rabbit's behest as well as goes along with Pooh bear no matter how wrong or how silly he is. Tigger who never listens to reason and just jumps into conclusion. Rabbit? While I understand why he's so quick to anger, but sometimes his things just goes out of bounds.

There is more about the bear named Winnipeg. During the First World War, a Canadian soldier from Winnipeg Manitoba, brought the bear cub with him to the war. I think he snuck him in his trunk or something. Anyway, the bear became the mascot of their platoon, but he was forced by the higher ups to donate him to the zoo, because apparently you can’t have a bear in the trenches at Ypres.

[@sairaramjit1271]

Thank you for making and uploading this video. The true story of Winnie the Pooh origins is not tragic at all. Christopher Robinson sounded like he grew up to be a very ungrateful child. His father made him famous and people became envious. He was not a victim of bullies because he fought back. He clearly had no respect for his parents. He got what he deserved.

[@reganingram850]

I love this series so much! Keep up the good work! :)

[@dancergirl4701]

I loved Winnie the Pooh, my mom would always read the books to me and watch the show with me. He was a big part of my childhood, and now knowing that the real-life Christopher Robin grew up to hate him, idk why, but it's actually kinda heartbreaking...

[@TheRealNormanBates]

9:22 you know... there is something a bit.. _Miyazaki_ about the Winnie the Pooh drawings... I have to wonder if Hayao did not grow up on the books (among other things) and developed his animation style from drawings like this (as well as the stories he wrote, as a lot of them revolve around children being the heroes or in the case of Lupin the III or Porco Rosso, they are bit child like in their mannerisms).

My mom almost named me Christopher Robin but thank god it didn't happen

[@rogers.5]

Beruka The Chibi Toast relatives and real close friends would call me Christopher Robin because of my hairstyle and color was the same as the cartoon. At the time I found it annoying, now though I find it endearing.

[@infernalbaka557]

Doesn't fit a Assassin like Berkua

[@kingdombladesventus]

After seeing this about after the third time seeing the Disney Christopher Robin, kind of glad the story revolves around the fictional Christopher Robin and not the Real now. Because that is one screwed up person. Sad, but yeah... Fiction for the win... I guess.....?

[@thefangirl_7907]

This is so messed up Ready to scare my little cousins the next time they break one of things again Jk I love the video 👍

[@BW-pc7lv]

Back then over 25% of marriages were between 1st cousins. Crazy to think just how common and in the norm 1st cousin marriages were. Over the past 70 years it's almost completely died out in the developed world but still amazing to think it wasn't that long ago when it was accepted behavior
