Thanks again for covering my videos! Always love a profressional opinion, trust me bro.😎
Hi bro big fan of your videos
Why does my bro have no comments other than mine 😐
The line about “90% of the world’s problems would disappear tomorrow if we just learned how to treat each other better” I 100% agree with.
It's not that we don't know how to treat others well, it's that we can't trust others to do the same when their time comes. There's nothing really wrong with that I suppose, everyone's gotta look out for themselves sometimes. So the result is a person becomes kinda cynical and jaded.
I would also add that I believe the world would be a better place if more people minded their own business. I’m not necessarily saying we need to become more selfish but I think some people will understand what I’m saying
There is this quote from The Hobbit: "If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world."
@@Angrenost02 that book had so many great lines.
"Misanthrope? I don't hate my fellow man even when he's tiresome and surly and tries to cheat at poker. I figure that's just the human material. And him that finds any cause for anger and dismay is just a fool for expecting better." -The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
An old lady, my customer out of the blue mentioned that she was a survivor of the Leningrad Blockade. She recalled that rats became huge and bold, biting sleeping people's flesh (buttocks, calves). She remembered that after the siege, a train car load of starving cats was delivered to the city and let loose to tackle the rat problem.
Part of the reason the Paris Catacombs are considered creepy is because of the found footage of a man who went in there alone and got lost. Something off camera scared him and he dropped the camera leading to theories of a ghost or something else scary that could have killed the man
I'd say any enormous, underground, hard-to-enter-or-exit graveyard virtually complete in its darkness, reaching as far as you can walk in a week, meets the threshold for creepy
@@straightrippnable706 And that's why I'll never visit the catacombs. Seen 1 skeleton, you've seen them all. While I love history, I get a cold sensation up my spine whenever it's something about a tomb or death. Nanjing Memorial was the exception because they hang skeletons on the wall basically with an arrow pointing to a scratch mark on a femur bone and saying, "The Japanese did this!" I think many people know the gist of the history of Nanjing. I just felt like sticking it on display basically with an arrow was a little too much. Felt bad for the poor soul that doesn't get to rest in peace, but, instead, their skeleton is put on public display for the Chinese propaganda machine to continue to pump out hatred of Japan nearly 100 years after the fact.
Anyway, I don't like dead things. Just don't like. Creeps me out. There's a tomb you can walk through in Guangzhou, China that was opened. The bodies inside have turned to dust. I still needed someone to go with because I just couldn't go down there alone. I'm autistic with a photographic memory and scary movies make me paranoid for weeks. Honestly, Jurassic Park was like 30 years ago and I still am jumpy at night alone in my room in the dark. Saw Jaws, which I don't like swimming in 5ft+ pools because my mind starts fearing what's below even if I can see below I just have a sense of paranoia and fear.
its fake
I've seen it and that footage is fake... 99% sure. It's so easy to fake this kind of stuff
One story about Nanjing that isn't well known in the West is of a German man who was present during the massacre named John Rabe. Rabe was a Nazi bureaucrat who was in the city during the war. Its believed that he personally saved hundreds of thousands of Chinese civilians from being killed by Japanese soldiers.
Heard of John Rabe and it's an amazing story! There's also a Japanese ambassador in Lithuania named Chiune Sugihara whom issued visas and passes to thousand of Jews to safely travel to Japanese territories saving them. There is a street and square named after him in Israel today.
We got introduced to the Rape of Nanjing in High School by my teacher saying "and now onto a war atrocity so bad the Nazis were horrified".
He was a Nazi on paper. He didn't believe in Hitler's ideals. He mainly joined the party for financial support of his business. Also, I believed he saved thousands of Chinese, but the truth is he was the leader of the safe zone handling diplomacy with the Japanese officers. The real hard work of securing people was done by American expats.
Rabe wasn't a real Nazi though. He moved to China before the Nazis came to power. he only new a mythical version of the Nazis and didn't know what they actually were. He thought Hitler would be a sensible good leader of Germany and asked him for help when Nanking got raped, not knowing that the Nazis were doing similar things to the Jews in Europe. He was a member of the NSDAP yes, but he wasn't a believing Nazi, he was a patriotic German who loved China and it's people and fell for the Nazi propaganda because he had no ability to see the true nature of the Nazis being so far away.

Sir, that's just tik tok
I immediatley thought of TikTok during that part of the video too 🤣
Or any time my daughter and her friend get together.
I completely agree with your comment about people taking selfies in inappropriate locations.
Even worse, in 2018 I visited Warsaw on a working trip, and took a trip to see the Warsaw Ghetto. The place bought me close to tears. Yet loads of tourists were taking selfies, giggling and doing stupid hand gestures, a couple of them were English, like me. It was disgusting. One man I was with was absolutely furious, mentioned to them that they had no respect for the dead, the history of the place and the cruel, horrific things that happened there, and should stop making embarrassing fools of themselves...
He was German. A colleague of mine from Frankfurt.
I think by far the worst though, is tourists doing selfies in front of the 'Albeit Macht Frei' gate at Auschwitz. Those people are appalling. I've never been to Auschwitz, and I don't think I ever will, because I think the horror of such a location would break me. But the idiots are easily seen online.
Some people truly have been corrupted by social media… just disgusting.
Interesting Fact:
The modern city of Portland, Oregon was built over top of the original settlement. There is a tour where you can go underground where it used to be the second floor of a building!
That is Seattle, actually.
Some people steal skulls from the Paris Catacombs as souvenirs, which is one of the most evil things I've ever heard of.
They search your stuff when you leave, at least at the official tourist area. I'm sure people do steal stuff but only from the illegal entrances.
@@VloggingThroughHistory Maybe they do now, but back in the early 2000s some guys on 4chan managed to get some skulls out of the catacombs and then out of France entirely. They mailed them to the US so they wouldn't be found when boarding their flight back.
Don't look up what they did to the skulls unless you want to have your faith in humanity utterly destroyed, but lets just say it was depraved.
Defenestration is my favorite word solely due to how ridiculous it is that it even exists.
Babe wake up! New VTH just dropped
I am with you Chris. Tired if all the divisions and anger that permeates society. No matter our differences we just need to be civil and understand that we all come from different backgrounds and experiences. I really miss talking to folks about thing that we disagree with and not have insults thrown out. It is why I love history and talking about it. As you say history can be ugly but not talking about the bad parts means we will not learn from our mistakes.
Drachinfel has an excellent series about the war of 1812 and the naval battles during it. It would make an excellent series for this channel
Big fan of the Edinburgh pronunciation correction!
If memory serves, the remains of those guillotined in the Reign of Terror and buried in Errancis Cemetery, such as Danton, Desmoullins, and Robespierre, were reburied in the Paris Catacombs around 1850
'You have to talk about body snatching when you talk about Scotland.' Well, I'll bring that up with the Scottish Tourist Board! Although, to be fair, there isn't a lot else to do here...
haha! I should clarify...you have to talk about body snatching when talking about the dark history of Edinburgh. Scotland is my favorite country to visit!!!
Chris: “The Paris catacombs aren't 'dark or crazy'.”
Also Chris: “They're full of sculptures made of human bones”!
Yeah…
Still voting in for more 'Drawn of History' reactions, even some of his classics like what started ww1
As a Massachusetts native who lives near Salem, it’s the definition of tourist trap (especially in October). Still cool to visit but can be a bit over the top
Your mention of Burke and Hare reminded me that before Lothian and Borders police were absorbed into Police Scotland, there was a police museum on the Royal Mile, which had among it's artifacts items made of the skin of one of the perpetrators.
There is a bible (!) bound in Burke's skin in the Surgeon's Museum plus his skeleton and an additional wide variety of truly gruesome exhibits. Recommended!
Hi! Really big fan, I learn a lot from you! Thank you 🙏
Hulagu Khan actually asked Caliph of Bagdad to surrender but caliph said "Many Monarchs have tried to invade the abbasid dynasty, all had a sad doom, the place has better foundation, will last till doomsday" and when Hulagu khan was closing to baghdad the caliph began to understand the threat. He asked for peace several times but khan's reply was "since we have came all the way, how can we turn back without having seen the caliph?"
And 800,000 - 2Million people were killed by mongols including the brave dawatdar and caliph
It is said that the population of Baghdad in 1257 was 2MILLION and by the end of 1258 it got reduced to 500k
I think OSP said it best: "Imagine you wake up tommorow and heard that London got nuked and reduced to rubble. Thats how the world reacted to the sack of Baghdad." Thats a pretty decent way to explain the culture shock that was sent throughtout the Islamic world.
Iove your comment about how little differences shouldn’t have an impact on how we view people. Also the sack of Baghdad was so brutal that all ink form the house of wisdom turned the river black
"Thousands of skulls aren't creepy"
You do you, but I'm pretty creeped out.
I really like Trust Me Bro's stuff so far. Would like to see more reactions on his content in the future. Good work, Chris.
I'm surprised that he didn't mention that 12 heads of those 27 executed czech leaders were put into iron baskets and displayed on the outside of the Old Town Bridge Tower for 10 years.
The Paris Catacombs always remind me of Interview with the Vampire
Scott Ian from Anthrax wrote the song, Blood Eagle Wings, about this topic. The video is graphic, but it is meant to show that great cities came from the blood of the people, building on top of each other.
As soon as the first cities were built in Mesopotamia, others came along and knocked them down. The cycle of building and destroying played out over and over. It hasn't stopped.
Missed Johnny Depp’s bed getting shit on in the beginning 😂😂
You should do more original content. Field trip to mt Vernon or Arlington national cemetery
I went to Prague last year, it was amazing. Best place I've ever been to. Also in high school I remember learning about the defenestration of Prague in 1618 and it was so trippy when I realized I was in that exact room looking at that exact window when I was there.
Notable mention, not a city but dark history nonetheless: fall of Khwarezmian Empire to the Mongols.
Because they killed Mongol ambassadors Khwarezmians were punished with invasion that in few years dropped down their entire empire population from ~20 million to as little as 20.000 people. Making it one of the biggest cases of genocide in history.
Another case of mass hysteria in the US can arguably be McCarthyism; everyone was just accusing each other of being communists. Most recently, cancel culture can be described as mass hysteria, the way people get so worked up on social media, especially twitter is a perfect example of mass hysteria.
Your speech at the end is exactly how I try to live my life. "Just be a good person." That's my rule for living.
I was born next to Salem, MA in Beverly. Though I live in NH now, we pay a visit every few years. This year was the Peabody Essex Museum. But it's a place you need a couple days at least to fully explore it.
And yes, it started in Danvers...
22:15 the Japanese brutality in occupied nations still leaves scars today and makes relations with China and Korea complicated today.
as someone getting into a field where I'll be required to be sociable pretty heavily, I see you coming out with videos so often and having thoughtful things to say, do you have any tips on how to maintain being constantly social and insightful like that?
If youre going to Prague, you could do a collab with Simon Whistler, a live reaction to one of his videos, correcting the history 😂 would be hilarious, im a fan of both of you
When he mentioned Paris, I first thought he was going to talk about making soap out of the dead. The Party of the Austrian Painter never managed to make industrial production of corpse soap economically viable, but Parisian artisans actually once did. One of the cemeteries that was decommissioned when the Paris Catacombs were opened was the Cemetery of the Holy Innocents, essentially a mass grave for those too poor to buy their own grave. The bones from there were moved to the Catacombs, but in addition, there was a large amount of fat in the cemetery from bodies in later stages of decomposition. Not knowing what else to do with it, it was given to artisans to make soap and candles.
On the topic of war focusing on soldier vs soldier, there's a game based on the civilian side of things. This War of Mine you play as a group of civilians trying to survive a siege based on the Siege of Sarajevo. It's as depressing as you'd expect it to be.
Not sure if there's others with a similar concept.
As Finnish I need to point out about the siege that our soldiers only took the land that Soviets stole in Winter War. They did not go further even when asked by Hitler. For us it was simply a matter of taking back our own.
How many civilians/ innocent's died during this take back?
@@coxmosia1 Finland did not take part in any genocide or other such activities. Its war so surely there were people who suffered but Soviets were the ones attacking civilians and there are records of it.
@@laurihakala8600 Okay, I'll believe some of your statement. You say there are records. I'll believe that, but complete records or records destroyed is another story. As you said, "It's War."
@@coxmosia1 a lot of these records do exist but they are controlled by Putin. Russian studier of historywho has been important in uncovering this all has been thrown in prison for completely fabricated reasons.
Except for the conquest of East Karelia, which never had been part of Finland, either during its independent history or during its history as part of Sweden. A conquest that was followed up by setting up what was essentially an apartheid system discriminating between people who were considered ethnically Finnic and people who were not.
As for Finland's non-participation in the siege, that's a popular whitewashing of history that's half true at best. It's true in the sense that Finnish troops didn't advance on the city, freeing up Soviet defenders to focus on the German section of the front. When it comes to starving Leningrad through blockade, the Finnish army very much did its part, not only by blocking the Northern approach to the city. The German plan was for German and Finnish troops to link up at the river Svir to entirely seal off Leningrad and prevent supply across Lake Ladoga. The Finnish army made it to Svir, the German didn't. So if the Finnish army didn't starve Leningrad (more than it did), it's an incidental consequence of the Germans failing to meet their objectives as part of the plan. Also, the Finnish military did take part in joint operations to interdict transports across the Ladoga.
I recently read an article of a European man who was so appalled at what he saw in Nanjing that he thought it his moral obligation to save as many Chinese people as possible, and ended up saving a few thousand I think, by covertly smuggling them out of the city. For get the guys name but he was German, and a relatively high ranking member of the Nazi party. For a freaking Nazi to be appalled at human brutality, well that says it all.
John Rabe, he saved many by saying he employed all of them and lied that they were under the employment and protection of the German Reich. Check out Chiune Sugihara as well. A Japanese ambassador that saved thousands of Jees during WWII.
1:30 the catacombs are pretty creepy if you think about the people who got lost in there. And also that lost video tape that was recording until it was dropped by a panicking catacomb explorer and then recorded until it ran out of juice. Not sure if that was real or not but it is defnitely creepy

One of the darker books I've ever read (I don't typically read horror or supernatural stuff) is called "City of Thieves". It's by a guy named Benioff who at least for a while was one of the creative minds behind the TV version of "Game of Thrones." It's about a teenager surviving the Siege of Leningrad.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! For years I have been trying to remember the name of that book so I could finish reading it!
“This is Philip, my military advisor” …. Set up to best defenstration on in any movie ever 😂😂😂
11:46 GOOD OMENS!!
Recently Kaz Rowe made a fantastic video about resurrectionists, so if you want to dive deeper into this issue, I would highly recommend watching her video. Actually, while I'm at it, I would highly recommend her channel in general. Her videos are very well researched, and focuses more on culture and less (or more) known queer people of the past rather than battles and other significant events
Its was in a fictional context but the question remains " have you ever seen a war where the civilians didn't suffer in the thousands"
I believe the siege of Nanking or the massacre thereof among others is why Japan is not the most popular of countries with other Asian countries still today. Their war crimes rival what the Nazis did but like the Soviets during the war we turned a blind eye because of our diplomacy after the war.
7:13 My moms favorite show ever. She loves everything about Supernatural and has a huge crush on Jensen Ackles.
witch trials was the 1600's twitter cancelling, got it
Almost literally, it’s sad the humanity hasn’t changed how it behaves for centuries
Not quite. Witch trails started long before XVII century, and by that time they weren't that common in Europe... with some exceptions. My home country of Poland didn't jump on the wagon of witch trails when they first became "cool", but rather jumped late to the party. So much so that you have evidence of witch trails happening in XVIII and even XIX century modern-day Poland. Also, not everybody is aware that there have been strict rules regarding how witch trail should go - even in regards to how much and for how long you are legally allowed to torture someone. Of course, whether or not they were followed is another thing
I visited Prague a few years ago (going back this year!) and I stood by the defenestration window and honestly even if I wasn’t Catholic I think I’d still believe in some divine intervention of them surviving the fall
But I can’t recommend Prague enough it’s definitely Europe’s hidden gem
Discussing the r word of Nanking with japanaphiles is like arguing with a brick wall that's collapsing on you.
I’d love to see you react to Puppet History from Watcher Entertainment. They like to cover lesser known historical events (for the most part).
Most of these were pretty well known and basic. Personally, I prefer learning unknown or lesser talked about histories.
A few of some more obscure atrocities in cities are:
Tigray, where Ethiopian forces recently committed ethnic cleansing.
Min Gyi town in Myanmar where Rohingya people were hacked to death by the Myanmar military and associated militias.
The Tulsa race massacre here at home in the USA, where ~200 black and ~50 white Americans were killed over 2 days.
The large-scale assassinations and executions of moderate and government aligned tribal leaders, imans, and village elders in central Mali. Dozens of them have been killed for not supporting radical terrorist groups, often in front of their families and villages as an example.
These are just some of the lesser know city/town/village atrocities from a western perspective.
The genocide in Africa by Leopold the 2nd of Belgium. One barely heard about that one.
Chris... what was that loud "Boom" in the background of your dialogue at about @17:26? Did a transformer blow outside your house?
I have no idea. Nothing happened that I could hear while recording.
Interesting video
Tanya Savicheva was a girl who died in 1944 of intestinal TB, after being evacuated out of the city by defense forces. Her diary that she kept throughout the siege, was used at the Nuremburg Trials, as evidence of the siege as a war crime. She was 14. She began recording the times and dates of the deaths of relatives. Following the death of her mother she lost hope and wrote three pages with the words, "Савичевы умерли.", "Умерли все.", "Осталась одна Таня." "The Savichevs are dead." "Everyone is dead." "Only Tanya is left."
Yeah, I've been the Flower of Life Memorial outside St. Petersburg that has several stone monuments featuring pages from her diary. It's heartbreaking. We stayed in a hotel that had a large wooded park next to it. The trees in the park were planted by blokadniki (survivors of the siege) in memory of those who died. I did a graduate paper on the logistics of feeding the people trapped in Leningrad and read dozens of journals, diaries, and other first-hand accounts of the siege. Some of them were truly horrific and even the best of them could be disturbing at times. And then there's the diary of German general Franz Halder, who wrote that Hitler's plan for Leningrad was, "to dispose fully of their population, which otherwise we shall have to feed during the winter." I do want to add, however, that although the Finns under Mannerheim did help with the siege by blockading the northern approach to the city between the Baltic and Lake Ladoga, they were only interested in regaining land lost in the Winter War and stopped as soon as they reached the border of their former territory. In addition, they resisted Germany's urging to help in directly attacking the city and they did not go out of their way to prevent relief efforts as long as those efforts did not cross directly into the territory the Finns held. Things could have been much worse for Leningrad if the Finns had fully committed to the German effort to raze the city to the ground since the Finns were in the best position to disrupt what little food and supplies were getting into the city across Ladoga.
@5:50 Poland has the last official witch burning! It was 1811
Simon Pegg and Andy Serkis made a comedy about Burke and Hare.
Just wanted to point out here in the comments that the Salem Witch Trials didn't even happen in Salem. It was just the nearest city.
Yeah. I said that in the video.
@@VloggingThroughHistory yeah, you said someone was going to point that out in the comments. I wanted to be that someone, so now it's like you gave me a shoutout. Appreciate it
As a Massachusetts resident, history buff and tour guide, Salem is just schlocky touristy, despite her really fascinating history. Pass through, by all means, but spend your time in Boston, which has plenty of its own dark history presented better. The molasses flood alone is a treasure trove.
6:26 not to mention the Red Scare
Could you react to the presidential immunity hearings? Would love your perspective!
There’s a BBC podcast about Burke and Hare which I think you’d like. I found it really interesting 😊
Without justifying the siege of Leningrad I have to point out that it also belongs to the full picture that Stalin himself rejected an evacuation of the civilians of Leningrad because he just didn't give a shit... but of course he didn't say that, he just framed it as "soviets should not retreat"
Actually the reasoning was he thought it would make the soldiers fight more effectively. With civilians on the line if they failed. It's insane but it's his reasoning
Anytime in history you have a sacking of a city, you can pretty much assume mass deaths and mass "assaults"... and there have been A LOT of cities that have been sacked.
Has my name been uttered? 😎
.
Looking forward to show you my home city 👍
What books do you recommend. Especially on the Civil War
When I hear about the Paris Catacombs I always think of Interview with the Vampire
I think about the book World War Z, which has a chapter about taking the catacombs back from the zombies. The creepiest chapter in the entire book.
I was kind of disappointed with the paris catacombs. I was thinking they were old like the roman catacombs, and learned the paris catacombs were 19th century only. Dont get me wrong, theres something about 3 ft thick walls of just bones, but when i was thinking they would be like the roman ones, it wasnt as cool.
The Orchestra of Leningrad continued to play live on the radio through the seige. Many members collapsed die to fatigue.
Not sure it's the right niche but if anyone's very much into urbanism from Late Antiquity to the Renaissance I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's videos series
So i think one of the most fascinating cities with dark history London and Selma. For very different reason.
Subscribed for the excellent reactions, but I stick around because of 26:12 and beyond. Couldn't agree with you more. You're my favorite person to have a disagreement with and I wish this was more common. Wishing you continued success in spreading kindness.
I'm related to one of the 'witches' that were executed. I'm fairly sure it is Rebecca Nurse.
19:52 The rebelion was 30 years longer
Why is it called defenestration?
These days defenestration-from the Latin fenestra, meaning "window"-is often used to describe the forceful removal of someone from public office or from some other advantageous position. History's most famous defenestration, however, was one in which the tossing out the window was quite literal.14 Mar 2024
Warsaw -city including the greatest ghetto during the shoah- should have been mentioned at least, although it is impossible to mention all centers of extermination.
sorry for my fault about "cityincludung....")
A little monkey once said that the only thing worth knowing is love. That really resonated with me.
Extra history is doing a series about cults. The one on the illuminati is quite interesting. Check it out.
Super intriguing topic, thanks as always Chris! There’s a new channel posting great videos called Empire-Builders that I would love to see your reaction to! Highly recommend all history lovers check out the new video titled ‘How one family made the dark ages less dark’!!
I find it impressive though. 3 years of siege and 1,500,000 deaths and the St Petersburg still was able to last all the way till the Soviet Relief came. Shows how resilient and strong the Soviet troops and people wore.
If you want a good book about the japanese-chinese war I read Soldiers Alive for my East Asian history class.
I always thought the Salem witch trials was in Oregon 😅
Fun fact one of my great uncles is John Proctor. His wife’s sister is a direct ancestor of mine
John Proctor was my 11th great-granduncle Thomas Varney’s brother-in-law-he had married Abigail Proctor. Thomas’s sister Rachel Varney, my 11th great-grandmother, was one of many women related to her son-in-law Hugh Rowe who were accused of witchcraft in Gloucester that fall of 1692 and tossed into the Ipswich jail. None of them were executed, but they did suffer in jail, according to the petition they sent complaining about the conditions they were enduring.
I have family that were accused of witchcraft during the Salem Trials
How did he missed the Prague's slave trade history? A lot of Czechs were sold as slaves in the Muslim World
Edit: He did said that he would mention only one thing about each city
Lets not forget St: Petersburgs original name; Nyen.
Lets play the swedish anthem and bring it back :)
The Grape of Nanking
The German Invasion of the USSR was basically modern warfare but in the Dark Ages. The Soviets get a lot of criticism now for not quickly evacuating the civilians in those cities, though I think part was due to just how fast the initial German incursion was. However, it was also part of the defensive strategy. You look at any memoirs of soldiers or civilians who participated in those sieges at Kyiv, Minsk, Moscow, Stalingrad, and Leningrad you know everyone was expected to man the defenses. Civilians dug the trenches, placed tank traps, were partisan militia, were in fire brigades etc. Not unlike how during Medieval sieges the invader didn't just attack the army defending, but the city itself. Many had to be forced, but most knew that it was literally a fight for their survival. You just have to glance at the German occupation of Belarus to see what happened when you lost.
20:49 and the... well.. I hesitate tos say the worst part; the worst part is obviously that it happened, but another terrible aspect of it is that to this day Japan's official stance is that they deny that it happened
warszw and krakow deserves a spot too
I mean yea the catacombs are interesting but they definitely are creepy
Why is your face cam set at 30fps or lower? It’s been bothering me for awhile watching your videos. You either need to upgrade the camera or fix your settings. Love the vids
Three of my ancestors were convicted in the Salem trials. Thankfully... prison terms were their fate, rather that hanging.
Fabulos
You are a better person than I. I have serious issues with the politics and religious beliefs of some people. Kindness is not often one of the tenets of their philosophies or behaviors.
How about history buffs review of the Dunkirk movie.
