Just take a moment to appreciate how this guy doesn’t make a stupid thumbnail face or have a click bait title. It’s pure, truthful, humble, timeless and educational. Thanks bud.
Agreed. My gratitude is given to the intellectual rambling and constant citing/referencing of many great books, authors, and content creators. You have a true passion for knowledge, thank you.
Great thought! I am sort of disappointed to see many channels do these weird things... I've watched the for years, but it seems like the connection lies in some of them becoming "full time youtubers" Anyways, Thank you for the awesome content!
hey there rich, i left a comment on this video before about how i wanted to get into the old book hobby, and i realized that in my mom's basement we had a whole bookshelf of over 100+ books dating from like 1980s to 300 years ago! inside of some of the front covers there's even drawings my ancestors left which gives even more weight to them since my own past blood has touched the books. thank you very much for opening my eyes to this hobby and i'm so glad that my family kept so many old books throughout the centuries!
that's amazing your family has kept them for so long! i can't even date my family lineage more than 150 years ago. thats a beautiful thing to have such a tangible connection to your family. im so glad i could spark an interest V. take care and thanks for the great comment
I found great child's book at garage sale from early 1900s. It was inscribed from grandma to granddaughter. The wealthy family was easy to find, and even had a family "museum". I called and offered the book to them and they could have cared less. 😢 (I still have it) Another time I found a baby book with locket of hair and completely filled-in from late 1800s. I found a niece who was thrilled to drive an hour to come get it! So happy you're happy about your discovery!
not watching this yet, but your "old books" videos are my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. I've never been this hyped about an ASMR video. and 4 hours!! holy shit!!! Give that baby a kiss from all your fans
Your videos remind me of how relaxing it is to be in a library. Idk if that sounds weird or not lol but I love how you are always trying to teach us something while relaxing us at the same time. The library was a safe space for me and I took many naps in corners somewhere so thanks for conjuring up those memories.
Must underrated creator, you really don’t find channels like this one. Thank you for your work it’s appreciated by the whole community gotta love Ernie too :)
so, is no one gonna talk about the fact that he was able to leave those packages alone, not opening them, for ONE (1) AND A HALF (½) YEAR? That's crazy man, i could never :O
@@AugustTheStag if we're gonna get technical, it's "Year and a half" but we're just all having fun and not trying to be grammar/spelling police on the internet, right?
Thanks for always being straight forward with these thumbnails, providing great content, and uploading it at random times that end up being pretty convenient/at the right moment. I hope you and your family are well and that life is treating y’all kindly!
Man, I just needed to say that I really appreciate your approach. Most people doing asmr try WAY too hard. They try to make it sound seductive or lean way too far into "let me relax you, love my voice". Where as this feels more like a conversation. This is just you sharing your hobby. Thanks for just being yourself! Keep up the awesome work.
I first found this channel when I was stuck at an airport in Georgia after hurricane helene, waiting for the next flight out of there. It honestly relaxed me and kept me sane, I was able to forget what was happening. This is such a beautiful wealth of ancient knowledge and literature. Thank you for what you do
Love the picture within a picture. I love hand POVs and most creators don’t utilize it because they also want to show their face and the tingles get lost for me
I just wanna say it was great that you didn't cut out the part around the 25:35 mark. Most people would edit it out because it "interrupts the recording" but personally that sort of stuff makes it seem more like a real live video which is a way better experience imho
Long time listener, always love the videos, I’m leaving for the marine corp bootcamp thank you for all the great sleep you’ve given me. Take care and I wish nothing but the best for you and your family
Ohhh man! I’ve been patiently waiting to see if there was going to be another old book video. The day has finally arrived and I couldn’t be more excited! I like the addition of the face camera when looking at the books too. Thanks for posting!
The indiscernible, barely there whispers as he's reading at 1:19:40 is like...i could melt. I could completely and utterly melt, and I want a whole video of that kind of audio. It's so sweet sounding
Most archivists don't wear gloves anymore because you risk tearing the pages due to your decreased sense of touch when wearing gloves. Just wash and dry your hands before handling old stuff.
This was one of the greatest videos I’ve seen in ages. The content of ancient books, quality video, ASMR sounds were all so perfect. Thanks for sharing and taking the time to produce such as great work. Be well my friend.
I’m new to your videos but I gotta say you have got to be the coolest ASMRist I have watched. Not only is your voice perfect for ASMR but dude, I love your similar passion for almost all things academic, and to incorporate it into ASMR is such a unique genius idea. I sometimes wake up remembering some of the facts I learned from the night before. You’re my new go to and at the moment the only one I watch for ASMR! Really awesome man! 👍
Where have I been the last 9 years roaming the ASMR universe and not finding this absolute gem of a channel ... omg. I am shocked and amazed at the same time. Enthusiastic greetings from Germany ❤😂
no way you watch chycho bro, I've been watching you a long time and I had no idea you knew of him. that was super exciting and cool to hear! thanks so much for keeping up your content. always a great pleasure to be here.
have been with you for quite some years now, your voice and your lovely energy is such a huge support for me these lonely days... Thanks for being out there. Love
I don't know the words you are talking about due to my lack of study, but this is a great video to listen to while you sleep. I love the almost inaudible whispers in the middle very, very much. Thanks for the great video.
I like hearing stories and history as i go to sleep. Its much better than the one sided conversations that most channels tent to lean on for most of their content. Plus i have dyslexia so its extremely hard for me to actually sit down and read a book on my own as it gets frustrating to read a sentence and have to go back over it to make sure that i read it correctly it takes the fun and rythem out of reading. Its much easier to listen along and read behind you if that makes any sence.
3:39:34 so unique and elucidating map I've heard something about Albanian Turks in Caucasus , but some people usually don't find it logical because Albania is in the Balkans, and overall, it seemed strange to me as well but this map have clarified so many facts.
I'm finally getting a night to truly watch this because the old books videos are my absolute favorites and I rewatch them all the time when I need to calm my busy brain and go to sleep
I don't know what it is i'm not an astrologist or any kind of mathematician. I do and always have had a deep fascination with history overall and old books like that really do it for me. That's a shame so many people out there are trying to erase our history just because it hurts some feelings. mankind overall is not the nicest species to say the least. But the discoveries we've made in much older times with the most bare bones instruments. Mind blowing stuff
i stumbled across this video, but from this one alone im hooked to your content, As a history addict myself i love seeing all these great works. cant wait to dive into more of your videos.....if i can stay awake, they're so relaxing!
finally been able to watch most of the video and that was definitely one of my favorites. i really appreciated how you included prices so we could see how expensive this hobby can be, you always are able to make your videos so authentic. id love to try looking around to find some books myself to start reading real history as well the most interesting books to me from this video were shaw's fables and the history of astronomy, if you were to make a video on either haha loving the videos, keep it up
so awesome to hear you appreciated the extra info v. thanks for watching. its definitely cool to own books with so much history and really fun to hunt down deals on ebay
i know im late but i come back to your historical book videos all the time, definitely my favorite asmr videos ive ever seen. love your vids man and i really hope you keep doin it for a long time
I have followed you for about 2-3 years now, and I never commented so here I am. Thank you for your content 🙏☺️, it does help me relax and sleep. Keep up the great work.
Really enjoy your ASMR. I’d really like to see a new Space / Universe video at some point in the near future. Always find myself going back to the Gas Giants and Space Facts videos in particular. :)
Wow, definitely a video of the Shaw's fables is needed, it sounds so interesting. I hope french whisperer takes you up on your offer to lend your french book about the universe. I'd totally check out that collab
Really enjoyed this video. Helped me to relax after a stressful night and i passed right out. Your subtle humor was fantastic as well. I laughed out loud when you had the awkward moment while reading the message on the back of the wolverine comic.
I hope that all humans & animals in the family survived the hurricane and that you all receive support in at least equal measure to the benefits your channel has provided to folks around the world. ✌️
this is currently getting me through an all nighter and 2 papers (and will likely get me through several more over the course of the next 3 weeks lol) the perfect background video, super relaxing without being too boring or too distracting :) thank you
I think you would be interested in the National Library of Norway. There is one in Oslo, but everything inn all of norways history lays underground in the mountain in Mo i Rana. i went on a school trip to the national library in oslo and it was very fascinating. we have books from 1475+
This is amazing! I am so glad this got recommended to me! I absolutely adore history, I am such a sucker for it haha! 8:55 I have a lot of the older comics, the whole space under my bed is filled with them! I owned them after my father gave them to me as I already loved and read them back when I was a young girl.
Just take a moment to appreciate how this guy doesn’t make a stupid thumbnail face or have a click bait title. It’s pure, truthful, humble, timeless and educational. Thanks bud.

I think you would be interested in the National Library of Norway. There is one in Oslo, but everything inn all of norways history lays underground in the mountain in Mo i Rana. i went on a school trip to the national library in oslo and it was very fascinating. we have books from 1475+
everything has been digitized as well, so you can do research from home which i think is really cool
I love everything about your videos and your voice. But your humor slays me. 👏🏽

Great asmr, never see it before, i've watched all and learned it so much, thanks !
I would love an in-depth video on the Shaw’s Fables book!
just might do one!
It’s crazy that I clicked into this video today 07/13/2023. Exactly one year after it was posted and that means the map is officially 300 years old.
your videos about old books r definitely my favorites along with those about universe sandbox
Your voice is so smoothing,
I would absolutely love a video on the full Shaw's Fables!
