    He is what happens when you give your average man absolute power when they are 24 years old.

    John Hurt was fantastic as Caligula in I, Claudius.

      Yes. He was hilarious! But his character also went deep. Paranoid, excessive, delusional, alert to recognize any power and eager to grab it up.
      "Uncle Claudius! Turns out I wasn't the Messiah after all! Can you believe it? Could've knocked me over with a feather when they told me..." Scary...

    You think Caligula has dark humor, just wait until you find out about Stalinist comedy 😢

    Hi, great video. Could you do a series on the Roman Emperors? I find Rome a fascinating era in history.

    What does a Pretorian Guard do without an Emperor ? Find another occupation or another Emperor .

    I have to agree… why would you drag George RR Martin into this???
    You read that few books that he’s the only person you know that writes about medieval violence???
    Bad choice of words.
    For me that’s a strike one at very least

      Because that's what happened to one of the Targaryen children when their House was overthrown. Lol

    Why the fuck would George RR Matin be proud of a child being bashed to death???
    Seriously, you should change that line. It's very gross and hateable.

      Like I replied to the other person, it happened in one of his books in a major event. Don't be pissy, this isn't Twitter.

      @Hum0ng0us Месяц назад +1

      @BFTBGSFTST -- So because he wrote something like in his books, you have no problem with it being said for him that he's happy with having a child death?
      All I was saying is, it sounds bad and should be maybe changed.

      ​@Hum0ng0us You have yourself to blame. I won't tell you how to conduct yourself, but with how you framed youe sentence, can you really blame people for their reaction? All of you should check your assumptions. Oh and this isn't me telling anyone what to do. It's just a suggestion.
