Hah! Don't mess with the sheppard! I love how the messenger's horse managed to lift all for hooves off the ground at once when the dog came sniffing around its feet. Then later, I loved how the dog tried to chew on the guards' legs when they were both wearing armor! I must say, the dog took it well.
There were my and my mom's favorite when I was a kid. I'm romanian but sadly only a few episodes have been dubbed and they stoped dubbing them after that controversial one
I've heard a version of this story before, except the shepherd asks to be whipped and not just beaten. At the end as well, the king says something along the lines of, "The beating was your reward for your hospitality, now here's your reward for being a great guest." And gives him some gold/jewels.
I like this ending a lot! I was imagining that because the shepherd's reward went to the two guards, a large (actual) reward would be given to the shepherd's dog.
The shepherd already had his reward; a scrumptious meal, a good laugh and all the food he could discreetly pocket. Plus, he got to see the two guards get caned.
He most certainly did get a reward cause the Shepard had weeded out 2 clearly corrupt guards for the king and no doubt made the king suspicious of what other bribes they might’ve taken from people entering the city or the castle; after all King Matthias did have his own enemies and more than one monarch have lost their life to a greedy and corrupt guard.
Mine is the mayor's daughter. There's also a version where she's so clever that he marries her. They have a disagreement, so he sends her back to her father. She asks to keep the most valuable thing in the castle to her. The king agrees. So she drugs the king and takes her husband with her back to her father's house, "because my husband is the most valuable to me."
I love this one. I wonder why King Matthias keeps showing up in these, though? Was he an important folklore hero in Hungary, like King Arthur is in England?
Yes, he is. King Matthias, the Just may be the most popular king of Hungary. He kept all the nobles and magnets at bay and let the smallfolk thrive. His main trope as these tales shows that he is wandering the countryside in disguise, making shenanigans, rewarding the clever and diligent ones, and punishing those who abuse their power. There is another cartoon series dedicated to him, unfortunately still without English subtitles.
@@alioness-w-noregrets7471 he was an actual person. However these stories are just really stories. He was like most European kings, more interested in conquest and keeping his kingdom safe than roaming the countryside
The Indian folk tails which I heard growing up, there the man who was to be rewarded asked for 200 lashes so the shepherd in this story is very generous cause the guards only got 25 lashes each
FYI - The music was too loud in this one! There was indeed a King Matthias Corvina of Hungary. As Matthias the Just, the monarch who wandered among his subjects in disguise, he remains a popular hero of Hungarian folk tales. He reigned fron 1458 - 1490. Generally a good guy who promoted merit over elitism. Although in this story, he was a jerk! He ate a poor man's food, then played a trick on him, and gave him nothing due to his corrupt guards. Should have sent him home enriched! Tsk, Tsk, Matthias, that was not nice.
I mean, I doubt the king would've actually sent him home with nothing. He could easily let the shepherd keep his word by saying "This gold is a gift, not a reward."
In India we have the same story of a king who was close to his subject (Akbar) and a poor guy (Birbal)who was invited to the Royal Palace. The guards asked to share his rewards. So Birbal asked Akbar to be flogged. The guards were flogged and Birbal was made a minister in the court. He was very clever and one of the 9 jewels of Akbar's court.
There is a lot of similarities between this story and akbar's stories. I wonder if some of Akbar Birbal stories were developed through hungarian and western stories?

I like how King Matthias's tales involve clever peasants.
😂 peasants were clever other wise they wouldn't survive the hardship of old times
Hah! Don't mess with the sheppard!

Alice Willoughby so what is the lesson. What is the Takeaway?
Don’t mess with dis Shepherd when he’s on a breakaway.
That dog is adorable 🐶
At first I was confused why he was wanting to be punished, till I remembered he promised each of the guards half of his reward lmao
how did you forget? the video's only 6 minutes long

Inspired from an old indian parable
I love that the dog’s bark is just the sound of a squeaky toy lol
I love when troons go 40% too!
Marcell Jankovics is a true artist. I grew up on those tales. Everyone love them here (in Hungary).
Well I love them too down here in Brazil.

@@bdariamihaelaWhich controversial one?
Apperantly I've joined this Fandom aswell. The hungarian folktales fandom
Ya like Hungary folktales? Name all of the..
Fandom? Really?
as a hungarian person who grew up watching these folktales, knowing that it has a fandom now makes me really happy :D
Lesson of the day: this is the consequence of excessive gatekeeping

I might seem okay but deep down I want a black sheep dog that makes "squeaky toy" sounds. 💛
And then King Matthias gave the shepherd his real reward. Right? Because, he's a king and can do so much to help this shepherd.
Exactly! He could have given him his money or whatever still!
The shepherd already had his reward; a scrumptious meal, a good laugh and all the food he could discreetly pocket. Plus, he got to see the two guards get caned.
Főfasírozó I’m still pretty confused

I love how at the start of every story the birds have a seizure and barf out a garden.

I like the little cute black dog. Sounds so adorable, like a squeaky toy
Them guards are thicccc
XD omg...
What the freak?
😂😂😂😂
They probably have to be in order to survive wearing chainmail and armor every day or every night.
The dog is so cute,I love how it barks like a squeaky toy
I don't. It's too much, it's annoying!
moral of the story: those who are corrupt and in power shall be beat because they steal from those with less than them
And to not take advantage of others for that will only bring misfortune to both parties, sooner or later.
The meek shall inherit the Earth.
I like how the king is just genuingly messing around and that the punishment is spanking the guards instead of something incredibly vicious lol
You don't think getting spanked with a stick bare isn't vicious?
Anyone who has ever had to got to a family gathering:
2:07 *“so the shepherd made himself look smart-“*
Lesson of the Day: Don't take advantage of people because you think they're going to be rewarded.
Among all Hungarian folktales I watched, this one is my favorite
Mine is the mayor's daughter. There's also a version where she's so clever that he marries her. They have a disagreement, so he sends her back to her father. She asks to keep the most valuable thing in the castle to her. The king agrees.

Dog sounds like a modern dog toy lol
Big kudos to the shepherd for not only tricking the guards but also inventing the bread bowl.
Gotta love the dog XD

Okay! I enjoyed this tale more than I should! I love how the king and the shepherd are more like good friends.
I'm so guilty of binge watching these while at work haha
This tale is also most popular in India. In this Birbal played the role of shepherd
The artwork on this is exquisite! Love the way scenes are framed.
Why do these videos keep getting recommended on my feed?? I think I’ve binge watched 100 of them already
If you watched 100 of em', you watched all of them, cuz there are only 100 of them..-
If you keep watching them they’re obviously going to show in your recommend more. That’s how your recommended feed works.

One of my favorite Hungarian folk tales! From the Season I of Hungarian Folk Tales! ❤
The Indian folk tails which I heard growing up, there the man who was to be rewarded asked for 200 lashes so the shepherd in this story is very generous cause the guards only got 25 lashes each
25 leashes are still a lot
I remember a Chinese themed version where there were three guards and each got 1/3 of 99 blows.
@@icediamondshark4010 It's less than 100 though, generosity is clearly relative here
Safe to say I'll be referencing "Shepherd's joke" very often in daily conversations
4:39 And thus was born the bread bowl

LMAO THE HORSE
LOL I hadn't noticed that
*gasp* the OG bread bowl!!! 😲👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Those palace guards are tHiCc
Loved those man buns at the end!
One of my favorite tales in the series 👏
Those guards are thicc.
Guards are porn
This is one of my favorite episodes✌️😂✌️
They legit used a squeaky toy for the dogs bark
6:14 the torture begins
I loved this one! Such a good moral!!
Now I want some soup!!
Right??
Did you had it? Else you shall be the donkey.
So funny. He is crearive and yes, there are restaurants in which soups are brought in breads. Breads are pots. Did not have an adorable spooney.
Some bread bowls come with an adorable hat, which can serve as a spoon.
Lesson: Be careful when you blackmail people.
Greed was paid in full I suppose.
I dropped out of college so I could have more time to watch Hungarian Folk Tales
I love the visual humor
Me thinks the king is a troll LOL!
aye! a troll indeed, sir.

That's a really nice tidbit of information, I'm happy he was a real person and ruled with fairness and integrity 💜
I mean, I doubt the king would've actually sent him home with nothing. He could easily let the shepherd keep his word by saying "This gold is a gift, not a reward."
Dude deserves an actual reward for calling attention to potential corruption in the guard
The second joke was also related to akbar and birbal story as guards of the palace were corrupt
Here in Hungary we don't know those names, but it's fascinating how tales spread, as we say "from mouth to mouth".
There are plenty of Hungarian folktales that have English versions. (Though English folktales are weird)
@@bbenjoe We call it "ahoz aho" where I live
That's a good one!
I think there's an Indian version of this but without the dog, I wonder which one is older
It used to be my favourite episode watching from Greece in the mid 90s, thank you ❤❤❤
I love love love every story you tell! Please don’t stop ✋
after watching videos of bob ross I now watch this to hear your soothing voice
Matthias Corvinus best Corvinus 10/10
Such a funny and cute story
Here, I was expecting Matthias to give the reward to the dog, so the guards couldn’t have it.
So that's how the poor man got his gold in the original tale.
I think this tale is inspired by tales of Akber and Birbal
Each got half of an punishment
i really like the soundtracks of these.!
The dog sounds like a rubber duck
@1:47 "...or how to find the king's home". That's quite ridiculous considering that everyone in the kingdom should have at least seen the palace.
The shepherd was a good sport, but it seems incredibly rude to reward hospitality by trying to embarrass a guest in front of the royal court
best tale ever
Being smart is a necessity if you're poor, being rich it is favorable to be smart but not necessary
More king matthias tales please

Stories with video are cool 💪
Matthias corvinus? Son of John Hunyadi
Yes...:)
My favorite so far 🥰
So a happy ending for everybody then
No not everybody! The guards were beat!
This one was very good… indeed it was 😊
It's true kids! Dogs in Hungary don't bark! They quack!
This is relevant to my interests
Why would he not give the old man a spoon? That's not very generous.
They wanted to play a joke on him
NessLover94, I think he wanted to see what the sheppard would do.
Little bit of fun.
There is a lot of similarities between this story and akbar's stories. I wonder if some of Akbar Birbal stories were developed through hungarian and western stories?
A tale with no magic
OH GOD THE SQUEAKY TOY MAKE IT STOP
Them guards thicccccc
What a smart man!
Wow I think I heard king Mathias before?
Clever✌❤
COOL
Can anybody tell what tune is used for the main theme?
Good old lad
That was funny!
Fourth one with the title right, 4 out of 6.
Not exactly it's "dog" in the Hungarian title instead of "donkey"
