+hirumaredx I don't know why ppl care about the way you said words. You know that smart ppl understand the words eaven you pronunce them wrongly. So they focus more on pronunciaton then the content. Thats so shallow. Relax, english is not the most spoken language in the world + you know english, they don't know your language ;)
In Shattrath, there's an NPC in World's Tavern called Haris Pilton that sells expensive bags and jewelry and has a worg pup named Tinkerbell. Her ghostly friend Ricole Nichie could only be seen with the priest only Eye of Divinity (no longer obtainable). There's an NPC in Uldum called Harrison Jones, and one of the quests with him is Harrison Jones and the Temple of Uldum.
Actually the egg near the genie reference is another Robin Williams reference, its the egg ship that Mork from Ork rides in at the start of the pilot from Mork and Mindy. Williams played Mork.
+Dirty Rights👽 I know right, I feel like he had to do it on purpose. How does one enter adult age and have never heard Black Sabbath or even the word Sabbath spoken correctly
21:22 That place off the coast of Tanaris is just the sunken version of the island where the Draconic for Dummies was buried in the Scepter of the Shifting Sands quest. The island itself was thought to be a secret easter egg in pre-cata WoW, as most players never got to the part of the quest where they're supposed to visit it. Also, it was only reachable through some kind of swim speed increase.
I love your videos. It's great to listen to while im out questing or grinding. The time goes by so fast and it makes the whole experience that much more enthralling.
There is a point break movie reference in the dragon soul raid. After you defeat ultraxion, you board the skyboat with kaanu reeves and sky captain swayze.
You may be too young to know this Hirumaredx, but the egg you mentioned at 21:42 found next to the magic lamp may be referring to the tv show Mork & Mindy from the late 70s and early 80s. The actor Robin Williams played an alien named Mork who was sent to Earth to observe and interact with humans. Mork's spaceship was a giant egg.
The turtle around 14:49 is a reference to Terry Pratchet's Disc World and/or to the Blind Turtle in Buddhism The System Nine that flies to space seems like a refernce to the movie Plan Nine from outer Space.
How about the Tenacious Defender from Hellfire Ramparts with the item text "It has the power, to move you" Which is a direct quote from Tenacious D's song, Wonderboy :) Great list though :)
# 73 the conversation might be a reference to the play "Waiting for Godot" by Samuel Beckett. The play has two characters talking next to a tree throughout the entire show as they move away but then always return to the same play as they started at the end. I read it just a few weeks ago and performed a scene from it for my drama class!
Jovan M. Man, I agree with you. This was a really interesting list and fun to watch, but man, when he was pronouncing the places or NPCs in Northrend, it was difficult to listen to because I'm Icelandic, because lots of the places and names are similar to Icelandic, and the vrykul language is really similar to Icelandic, making it easy for us here to understand it. And hearing him pronounce simple words like 'fjord', making it sound like 'fdjord', made me cringe a bit :P putting all these 'dj' sounds where it should sound more like an 'y'. But enough rambling from me! Tl;dr version is that I totally agree with you, just had to rant a bit :P
+Birna Dröfn Pálsdóttir considering millions of players still pronounce Draenor as Dr - eh - nor instead of Dr - ah - nor, I wouldn't think much of it.
24:10 It can also be a reference to a Bulgarian khan Krum , who destroyed the byzantine armies in a battle in year 811 and killed the byzantine emperor Nikifor (not sure if thats how you write his name) and drank from a cup made out of his skull ...
There are also references to the band Iron Maiden. The achievement "Be Quick or Be Dead!" - Same name as one of their songs. The achievement "The Boy Who Would Be King" - Reference to the Iron Maiden song "The Man Who Would Be King"
0:40 every time i see the sprites of the turtles from warcraft 2 memories of going around all the fucking map with an helicopter to find that last damn turtle hidden in the deepest parts of the scenario come back and i feel frustrated and nostalgic at the same time...
21:05 In August 2015 when this video was posted, dogecoin was worth $0.00016. Had we have watched this on its release date, and put $100 into dogecoin (the coin that the trash item is referencing), we would have turned that 100 bucks into $50,791.875 in May 2023. Or $462,500 at its all time high. And it even sells in game for 1337 (LEET) Blizzard tried to tell us. And it just ends up being something else in this video that was mispronounced. Shame
13:46 #46 - This is also true of all goblin shredders in the game since vanilla. In Classic, you can check out any stationary shredder and see the same graphic.
So many pronunciation mistakes! Like the Val'kyrs, which you call Valkyrie. Even though the Val'kyrs are a nod towards the Valkyrie, they are certainly pronounced the same. And I do not even know what the Valcry are.
Don't forget the "Top Gun" reference in shadowmoon valley when doing dailies for the netherwing. There's an Orc at the top of a watch tower as you race "mulverick" that screams "MULVERICK" as you race mulverick. And once you beat him he say you can be his wingman lmao
Ayyyyy Insane Clown Posse. Theres a psychopathic hatchet in the game?! Want. That Trigun reference is pretty cool, never noticed it. You pronounced Dirte wrong. It is Deer-tay.
The best part about Hirumaredx making a video, is going to the comment section and having a laugh at people getting angry at each other, or sending Hirumaredx threats for mispronouncing words. Or someone getting angry that he got one or a few aspects wrong.
Super niche reference when the mounts page came in. The “spectral wolf” mount had the info text “fears only fire” which from all my searching only references an XKCD comic mouseover text... alas it has since been removed.
14:01 #48 HUGE DOUBTS, idk if Goblins existed 10.000 years ago. Was it said in the books ? I don't remember. 24:10 #88 was just talking about that joke with a friend :D
I love how we "probably didn't know" about The Wizard of Oz, Romeo and Julia, or Little Red Ridinghood :) If those are not the referenciest of references in a game, ever, I'll be damned.
You really do have the best top 10s like you put care and have a genuine interest in these videos and content, thank you for all your hard work it means the world and helps me a lot
While I appreciate your efforts to dig up some fun facts, please please please have someone (educated) go through your audio commentary to aid in your atrocious pronunciation. I'm not referring to the WoW stuff, because that is subject to some interpretation, but about basic words such as "leper" and "fjord". It was very entertaining to hear your facts until you mispronounced something and suddenly there would be this stabbing ear spike. Thank you.
"Fraya is Fray-ja." You clearly know how to research these things, you have a lot of good and interesting information... But please for the love of God learn how to pronounce these things properly.
# 26, that isn't from How to Train your Dragon, the two unicorns is actually from the Disney movie Tangled when Rapunzel and Flin go into the little duckling pub and they sing, " I got a Dream."
10:47 - Is "Atriol" related to Atréju? :-P 15:14 - I don't think he's a _leaper_ gnome. He defintely doesn't seem to leap (he's a *leper* gnome, as in a gnome with leprosy).
You forgot about the questline from Cata which we met Jack Power and he says he has 24hrs to handle his mission (he is a SI:7 agent and the quest is ally only)
11:06 Didn't find anything anywhere about this; there isn't supposed to be any lore on undead priests except that they can wield the light but it hurts them
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
I really wish I could just re-record the lines for this video. Thats what I get for rushing the voice over part.
+hirumaredx that picture in the video isnt the mia rose that plays wow.... thats a diffrent mia rose :)
Since you mangled the pronunciation of damn near everything...yeah, I bet you do.
+hirumaredx I don't know why ppl care about the way you said words. You know that smart ppl understand the words eaven you pronunce them wrongly. So they focus more on pronunciaton then the content. Thats so shallow. Relax, english is not the most spoken language in the world + you know english, they don't know your language ;)
+hirumaredx robin williams memorial not refrence
+hirumaredx specifically howling fuhjord?
18:02 dude have you never heard the Jaws theme before
HLM jaws or not, thats just the c’assic theme for any shark tense moment
I was starting to think he is actually text to speak in this vid because of all the mis-pronunciation as well :D dude is a bot.
HOW did he get it so wrong??
Local Man CALCULATING HUMAN RESPONSE “EL OH EL. YOU ARE SO RIGHT.” HUMAN RESPONSE EXECUTED
I'm so glad someone else commented. Like... what?
Gotta be one of the best WoW videos I've watched, you must have put in a hell of a lot of time researching this stuff and edit it, nice one dude.
TheLazyPeon oh you have no idea, its was a nightmare to put together.
did you really not come up with any references to the Mesopotamian paganism? WoW lore is practically based on this...the whole Titans vs Void lords
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
all that time and effort and cant even say half the shit properly LOL

+freja Lenschow yes, my mistake

How did you fuck up the jaws theme? Like, holy crap, wtf even was that?
"references the movie's musical thing" *completely butchers said theme*
Seriously lol, how does anyone screw up the jaws theme THAT badly,...
That part was so fucking stupid
And put it on RUclips!!!
what the fuck was that Jaws music rendition oh my god i'm dying
Actually the egg near the genie reference is another Robin Williams reference, its the egg ship that Mork from Ork rides in at the start of the pilot from Mork and Mindy. Williams played Mork.
showing your age here homey
When he said "Black Sabbath" at 6:10 i cringed so hard.
Omg why didn't he know how to pronounce it xD
+Dirty Rights👽 I know right, I feel like he had to do it on purpose. How does one enter adult age and have never heard Black Sabbath or even the word Sabbath spoken correctly
+Dirty Rights👽 "qweenz-d-rishe?"
Not everyone is into and or worships that Garbo
THEY ALL HURT
Holy fucking shit you slaughter almost every name you came across.
Ymirheim is not reference to Ilmr, but to Ymir- a giant who was first living entity :)
the JAWS part was fkn brutal to watch man
21:22 That place off the coast of Tanaris is just the sunken version of the island where the Draconic for Dummies was buried in the Scepter of the Shifting Sands quest. The island itself was thought to be a secret easter egg in pre-cata WoW, as most players never got to the part of the quest where they're supposed to visit it.

What about "Grand Theft Palomnio" and "Mayor Quimbie" from the death knight starting zone ? (sry if i spelled it wrong)
he said 107 facts not 108 arrite?!
I love listening to black sab bath in the howling F-jords
I love your videos. It's great to listen to while im out questing or grinding. The time goes by so fast and it makes the whole experience that much more enthralling.
Seymour made it into Legion. Somewhere in stormheim you can find him kneeling down by a dead NPC that appears to be his mother.
You got me at "Slim" shady dealer... best one yet...
The picture you put of Mia Rose is not the porn actress, but a portuguese singer by the same name.
"His staff, Aydash" lol
26 is not How to train your dragon. It is Tangled
lmao, the jaws theme.. xD oh god ,.. lmao. so bad.. hilarious.
That was fucking awful
7:50 that's actually from Tangled lol, it's one of the brutes in the Snuggly Duckling when Rapunzel is singing about her dream
Have you not ever heard the theme to Jaws?
There is a point break movie reference in the dragon soul raid. After you defeat ultraxion, you board the skyboat with kaanu reeves and sky captain swayze.
realy lovin the leeper gnomes and dodge coins
You may be too young to know this Hirumaredx, but the egg you mentioned at 21:42 found next to the magic lamp may be referring to the tv show Mork & Mindy from the late 70s and early 80s.

21:59 "least most popular".....that doesn't sound right
The turtle around 14:49 is a reference to Terry Pratchet's Disc World and/or to the Blind Turtle in Buddhism
The System Nine that flies to space seems like a refernce to the movie Plan Nine from outer Space.
How about the Tenacious Defender from Hellfire Ramparts with the item text "It has the power, to move you" Which is a direct quote from Tenacious D's song, Wonderboy :)

Drinking game: Take a shot for every time Hiru mispronounces something.
Homer wasnt forced to eat the lobster, he said "i should eat it myself, mr. pinchy would have wanted that" :D
Great list! You might want to work on your reading and pronouncing skills though.

Not only that, but even simple english words, like doctor (he said docstor a couple of times)
Dodge coins
+Birna Dröfn Pálsdóttir considering millions of players still pronounce Draenor as Dr - eh - nor instead of Dr - ah - nor, I wouldn't think much of it.
Even ingame npcs say drenor instead of draenor so both are right
24:10 It can also be a reference to a Bulgarian khan Krum , who destroyed the byzantine armies in a battle in year 811 and killed the byzantine emperor Nikifor (not sure if thats how you write his name) and drank from a cup made out of his skull ...
7:50 Isn't that from Tangled?
There are also references to the band Iron Maiden.
The achievement "Be Quick or Be Dead!" - Same name as one of their songs.
The achievement "The Boy Who Would Be King" - Reference to the Iron Maiden song "The Man Who Would Be King"
hallowed be thy name achievement :D
and Minutes to Midnight from dragon soul.
I think this guy is actively pronouncing words incorrectly just to spite me.
0:40 every time i see the sprites of the turtles from warcraft 2 memories of going around all the fucking map with an helicopter to find that last damn turtle hidden in the deepest parts of the scenario come back and i feel frustrated and nostalgic at the same time...
At 19:12 you got the wrong Mia Rose.
Taylor sadly yes

And it just ends up being something else in this video that was mispronounced. Shame
What about the blue glowing weapon named "Very light saber"
Shrek no u

13:46 #46 - This is also true of all goblin shredders in the game since vanilla. In Classic, you can check out any stationary shredder and see the same graphic.
it's pronounced like Queens-rike (like bike but with an r)
21:43 - The egg is a reference to Mork & Mindy. The show is noted as Robin Williams' big break into show biz. :)
Fjord = Fyord
Thank you
I think subject nine will show up later and will bring mutate raptor as new enemies or become playable
Still waiting for prediction to happen
So many pronunciation mistakes! Like the Val'kyrs, which you call Valkyrie. Even though the Val'kyrs are a nod towards the Valkyrie, they are certainly pronounced the same. And I do not even know what the Valcry are.

Karamelldansen is actully Swedish, not Japanese
In 3:17 it was planned to be an island called "ogre isle" in alpha WOD there was a square piece of the old nagrand for reference.
Ayyyyy Insane Clown Posse. Theres a psychopathic hatchet in the game?! Want. That Trigun reference is pretty cool, never noticed it. You pronounced Dirte wrong. It is Deer-tay.
Howling Fuh-zhuord. Gave me a sensible chuckle. ...I've been listening to your videos for like 3 days straight. Love them all.
Mispronunciation superhighway

what about Harrison Jones???

+AG zombiekiller
yeah it is a great reference to Harrison Ford.

Snakes? Why does it have to be snakes?

hirumaredx Really enjoyed the video thanks for your hard work.
hirumaredx 107hours of hard work for 107 facts of wow, it all adds up!
Thank you for putting me in this video !

5:49 the real slim shady :O
17:40 music name?
"Leaper gnome" Im done haha
my personal favorite is the "What a long, strange trip it´s been" achievment reference, a The Grateful Dead album released in ´77
I'm not even remotely Norse and was cringing at his pronunciation
You mention Shrub Niggurath at 1:58 . I remember this name. Search in youtube for "quake 1 shub niggurath" . This Boss has the same name :)
Howling fyord! Not Howling fgord!
Another fact: The horde bodyguard Vivianne sometimes says "How do you kill that of which has no life?" another reference to Make Love, not Warcraft.
how is it possible to be completely incapable of pronouncing a single one of these things?
7:47 ah yes my favorite httyd reference, i loved that part where Astrid grew a ton of hair and saved Hiccup Rider and Maximus the dragon from falling
While I appreciate your efforts to dig up some fun facts, please please please have someone (educated) go through your audio commentary to aid in your atrocious pronunciation. I'm not referring to the WoW stuff, because that is subject to some interpretation, but about basic words such as "leper" and "fjord". It was very entertaining to hear your facts until you mispronounced something and suddenly there would be this stabbing ear spike.
Thank you.
Way to put so many of these together, very nice
What the fuck is fight club? Never heard of it.
+Jan Dobrzyński Stop what you are doing and watch it immediately, don't look up anything about it, just go in blind.
+MrPartySack I believe he's referencing the first rule of Fight Club
vaughn crouse Ah, I see.
+Jan Dobrzyński The first rule of the Brawler's Guild...
+Jan Dobrzyński well nobody can talk about it so
There is an NPC in Darkshire who I ran into while questing in Classic. He is a member of the Night Watch called Watcher Backus.
"Fraya is Fray-ja."
You clearly know how to research these things, you have a lot of good and interesting information... But please for the love of God learn how to pronounce these things properly.
You forgot: "Me Grimlokk, me king!"- Transformers reference in that 40+ dungeon.
As a Swede, Karamelldansen sounds hilarious when Americans try to pronounce it
# 26, that isn't from How to Train your Dragon, the two unicorns is actually from the Disney movie Tangled when Rapunzel and Flin go into the little duckling pub and they sing, " I got a Dream."
107? Aren't you kind of copying Cartoon Hangover?
Zereleth Just a number...
I'm Joekcer 107 facts is kind of an obscure number.
Zereleth no its pretty common
DeathnarWoW 107? 107 Facts? Find me another.
Zereleth Yep, copied the number. Fact videos aren't an entirely original idea anyway, so I basically just copied the number.
10:47 - Is "Atriol" related to Atréju? :-P
15:14 - I don't think he's a _leaper_ gnome. He defintely doesn't seem to leap (he's a *leper* gnome, as in a gnome with leprosy).
lol its pronounced "Queens-Rike"
Also its "Howling Fyord" not Feshord.
In Norse languages, the J is pronounced like a Y. The Y is pronounced like an I in "him" or a slight "ew" sound.
You forgot about the questline from Cata which we met Jack Power and he says he has 24hrs to handle his mission (he is a SI:7 agent and the quest is ally only)
All those complaining about his pronounciation. Wtf? Enjoy the god damn video, you can understand what he's saying can't you? Jesus Christ.
11:06 Didn't find anything anywhere about this; there isn't supposed to be any lore on undead priests except that they can wield the light but it hurts them
