Once upon a time there was a king who had a beautiful daughter. A sky high tree stood in the middle of their garden. One day the wind caught the princess and lifted her to the top of the tree, into the castle of the three headed dragon. A swineherd succeeds in climbing the tree, he tricks the dragon and robs it of its strength. He returns the princess to her father, who presents him with his kingdom and hand of his daughter.

Ha ha ha! "But she loved him as much as she loved horse manure." XD! Thanks to these folktales I finally know how to picture a many headed dragon riding a horse.
I use rule 34 for that but ok
Which is basically just a purple man with 3 fearsome faces
I like that they tone it down enough to enjoy telling the story to anyone
Lol this was the first comment on this video.
So the wasps were parts of his soul. He made horcruxes, the basterd
9 of them! That's worse than Voldy!!
Haha best comment.
But was foolish to keep all of them at one place..
@@kanamexzeroxyuuki lol
And he put all 9 into the one same box! Idiot!
I found quite interesting the way of depicting a dragon in a human-like form. :)
Yah in Hungarian folklore dragons are supposed to represent a negative aspect of human nature that the hero must overcome.
Also by the time John reached the Princess she was married to the Dragon, so she wasn't a virgin any more.
@@Zorander. I guess so😂
Zorander Istvan Unless she never did it with the dragon.
@ @@AgdaFingers In the old times (and a lot of places even today) marriage is not official and it's unvalid if the couple did not have sex at the night right after getting married! So since they were married it means she did it with the dragon.
I like that John and the princess worked together as a team
This is like a mixture of Jack and the Beanstalk and Samson and Delilah
Yeah, when I was at the Samson and Delilah part I thought the same
True
It actually originates from Hungarian Paganism, and has many similarities to the story of The White Horses Son. The top of the world tree is where the gods live. And the bottom is where the devils live. In between is Earth.
In the times when this tale was created, The people didn't know about the beanstalk tbing.
It also has similarities to the stories of Koshchei the Deathless, Bas Celik, and the man with the stone heart.
"Five legs" ... And the fifth leg is placed right there.
That's the smallest one
Maybe it's a metaphor 😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈
Yep, he’s a stallion alright.
What are you supposed to tell a kid if it sees a giant horse dick?
it's weird tho because the hungarian version says he is a gelding
The king offered half his kingdom to the man that could find his arms
Lol! Underated comment.
A King with no armies? What happens if his kingdom gets invaded?
Omygosh yeah hahaha
@@andrewmorrice9139 then it's out of his hands
@@crossfitadpowersaogoncalo7533 I think you've put your finger on it there.
I have enjoyed the animation style used in these Hungarian Folk Tales quite a lot, but I adore the backgrounds in this one. Just gorgeous.
finally a blond boy without a mustache.
☻
I KNOW, RIGHT??
Give him time.
When the narator says:"and the other broke his neck", the climb was bassically a death sentence for them.
the princess really played the dragon smh
Dont you mean your nose ha ha baziga
I honestly felt a little bad for him
@@YoungRebelRoyalty same
He KIDNAPPED HER. Really, dude?
This makes me wonder if most of the dragons in stories like these courted them by legal means if the women agree.
I mean realistically speaking they are rich and powerful plus some have been shown to treat them well, and in times like those you wouldn't believe any practical women would disagree.
Also this is my opinion but those dragons ain't bad looking.
1:44 why is no one talking about this
“Just go up to the king and tell him *shushushiushiushuishishu-* “
The narrator seems like he's told one two many folk stories
he needs som water
HE NEED SIM MILK
I've been binge watching these tales.
Except for John could not marry the pretty princess, because the pretty princess was already married to the dragon, and the dragon was still alive, making her marriage to John legally invalid. Oops.
Being forced to marry automatically renders a marriage null and void. (Presumably we're not suggesting she had any choice about marrying a three headed dragon.) It takes consent to constitute a contract, including a marriage contract. Even a contract with a three headed dragon.
DIVORCE!
So force full marriage are legal in your opinion which happened in first place when she was kidnapped
The dragon wasn't human
Behold the English church
What's with these folk tales and horses eating hot embers
Same doubt! And they will have extra legs
The eating of hot embers signifies a supernatural or magical quality about the animals that eat them.
Hungarian mythology. Hungarian shamans fed their horses ember.
I think too that there's something about horses eating charcoal to help with their digestion.
I looked up for it on the Internet and found out that ember in Hungarian means “man”
No one noticed, that the dragon's threee mouth became one big mouth at 4:09?
😂😂😂
I just noticed that. That's cute 😆
I noticed
I am so glad I found this channel. I love stories. And these Hungarian folk tales are enchanting.
Storyteller: But she loved him as much as she loved horse manure.
Me: oof
Hey ur a brown moomin
What's with horses eating embers and having weird number of legs it's like in all the stories.
Gotta rev the engine man. It's like a nitro.
Henry Mak I feel like the extra leg means he had a big private part
@@poploli2660 lmao
It's a Hungarian mythical creature like a unicorn but with no English translation
@@lime__time Ooh, what's it called in Hungarian then
All good dads love their daughters and would gladly pay any price for their safe well being
Bryan Sturgeon Including giving their daughter’s right to marry someone they love up for their “freedom” 🤨
@@nil-8026 who would want to climb a giant tree, face a three headed dragon and return again home if there was not a lovely reward?
@@Milan_Zivanic money and property is lovely enough lmao
That John character in these folk tales has really had some wild times
John John Jukebox you know thay arent the same person right?
If Disney made these into movies, they’d never run out of ideas.
3:36
Wait, that’s what a dragon looks like?
Wait, that’s what a battle axe looks like?
Whut is that
Idk, who ever animates these is on lsd
These are very old.
It wasn't translated really well. Actually, instead of "Dragon" it should have been "ogre" or "troll", and Instead of "battle axe" it should have been "mace" or "cudgel".
His old battleaxe? What is his mum coming along with him?
@@rollothewalker5535 no, it is really dragon ("sárkány") in the Hungarian version too.
The princess: _Now let's drink to the long life we shall live together._ *looks off to the side wickedly* 😂
So then, what was the purpose of the 7 suites and 7 pairs of shoes made from a bulls hide?
He used them to climb the tree, he chaged them as he got up
@@Stuntgirl-ct2mk This, and 7 signifies that the suits were magical. As anything pertaining to 3 or 7 is so.
The outfit also seemed Shamanic, perhaps by doning the hide and aspect of the bill he gained its strength.
King: "All the men in the kingdom, climb this tree, save my daughter and you shall be rewarded handsomely."
John: "I'll save your daughter!"
The King: "W-What!? YOU INSOLENT!!! *FINE!* SAVE MY DAUGHTER AND IF YOU CAN'T I WILL EXECUTE YOU!!!"
Me: *surprised pikachu face*
John wasn't a man yet, and he was already in the service for the king
@@jeffersondemott2125 Ah that makes sense, he was just a pig herder in service of the princess.
They never explained the need for the shoes or the horns, but I suppose something about the tree made them necessary then, maybe the tree was very rough.
"John saves the princess"
King: "...... well, fuck me. You might as well be an king for now on."
For anyone wondering, the insolence was that he took the time of the king just to tell him something the king already told everyone and even asked for things, also "he is just a pig herder"
Watching all of these, I bet I could clip all the narrator's line and make some real *DANK* Folk Tales. That or a *SLAPPIN'* mix.
I’ve never seen a horse eat hot embers like that..
Yeah, but have you ever seen a person buried alive?
It's amazing how the three mouths of the dragon became one to swallow the chicken. I watched it 3 times
I looked at it and its disturbing. It became one mouth😳
@@PrincessAfrica3 lol I thought it was creative 😆
Being afraid of heights is not good for those who intended to climb such a tall tree.
we are enjoying every night the Hungarian folk tales. Great channel!
Well the dragon at least treated her right while in his care.
Girl: My boyfriend just broke up with me :(
All the fboys: 1:10
The animation in these videos reminds me of Yellow Submarine. I like it.
You should watch 'János vitéz' or 'Fehérlófia' which are also made in that style...
`` Just go to the king and tell him, subasabusushusbashusabasab! ``
Pig, you've had enough to drink. Go to bed.
In all this..
Whatever happened to the dang horse after John married the princess?
👉 🐎 Horse lived "Happily Ever After" too...
Now GO to sleep!!!
Ok Mum!
3:19 so is she married to all 3 of the heads or just one also dose each head have a different personality
3:32 You just said your husband is a dragon that will kill your friend if he finds him
3:54 NOW YOUR JUST SHOWING HIM TO YOUR HUSBAND
4:43 what do we give the horse if it wants water
5:21 what dose Sunday have to do with this also do you want to eat his strength?
5:30 look at her sly faces in this scene
6:43 Well thats super complicated
6:46 would you become weaker than a super strong fly?
8:16 I don't think 5 legs would be very helpful especially when the fith is there
8:26 I don't think thread suit would be helpful at all
8:59 [insert I just found something cool in a Zelda game music her]
9:20 I just started thinking how did this dragon come across this way of getting it's strength was it born like that or did it make a deal with someone
9:39 when did she make the outfit change?
10:34 good video the story was weird and fun :D
The dragon would kill John if he knew that John was there to take the princess. The princess shows John to the dragon because she wants the dragon to think that John is there to serve them. Then John wouldn't be seen as a threat and he could take the princess back home.
You need chill. Just enjoy
yes@Alex Broomfield
I hear what your saying@@suruchisoren581 I watched the video and then watched it again to make these comments because I had some questions and statements that other people might find funny but, thank you for taking my enjoyment into consideration =3
@@fluffyseal1238 thank you as well :D
Well, at least they didn't kill the helpless dragon this time.
All of these tales: "GOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLDDDDDD!!!!"
Once upon a time, long ago... I'm addicted to this line
Its a line of nostalgia and childhood whimsy that promises unimaginable tales... Who wouldn't be addicted to it.
That battle axe was a mace.
she loved him as much as she loved horse manure
lmao
onto another tale that has giant trees, this time its actually a story about 3 guys bragging to each others
one guy described a tree so big and tall that a bird defecated out a seed that fall out of that tree
the seed grew up into a banyan tree - or you could imagine an oak tree, they have the same age range - then it got its own fruits & seeds, then those seeds grew up to full size trees on their own, while all of them are still falling out of that tree
by the time they crashed into the ground, 7 generations of trees have been born and grew up while falling out of that tree
as a bonus, another guy bragged about having seen a bridge so tall, when a guy accidentally fell out of the bridge (certainly death), even 3 years after his funeral his body is still seen falling from the bridge (he probably succumbed to starvation while falling, still)
i liked the dragon’s design it was cool
Luckily John the pig farmer was blond, otherwise all his effort would have been in vain.
LMAOO
Hahahah best comment. Yep these Hungarian tales have a common msg, lead roles and survivors are strictly blond and if they're not...they eat hot embers and become blond.
Hahah best comment. These tales teach us that the lead roles and survivors must be blond. If they are not they eat hot embers and become blond. Bottom line, be blond.
I thought the princesses was wearing her hair in two small ponytails I was so confused why it changed when they got back 😂
aww. The ending was so sweet. XD
I'm not gonna lie, the thumbnail is the entire reason why I clicked on this video.
I’d marry the dragon tbh
Atleast he is kind in his own way
For some reason i thought the horse was up to something tricky
I love these folk tales, I wonder if they are ever going to branch out to other cultures, that would be really cool :)
Probably not, as the animating company originated in Hungary.
Poor dragon 😔
Another dragon with 3 heads...oh,man the nights of the wife is surely wild.
Come to think of it, how the dragon gets his strength is similar to how the Lich and Voldemort sourced their immortality.
Koschei the Deathless
dude, this is cool
Poor Dragon
Dragon is not handsome enough like John but he loved the princess truly and said her the secret but princess was treacherous to him 😢
I’ve been madly in love with a Hungarian man for years B
Why those birds always having epileptic attack ? They are literally seizing :(
The Sun and Moon imeges, is appear, in every Hungarian or Szeklers folk tails,because those is the basic imeges on the beautiful szekler's flag.Like in that story the hors"paripa",with the Sun, and the Moon,on his front head,who can take us,to the ever lasting happiness,we called:napos-holdas paripa-.Also the Sun and Moon showing the people of Szeklers more than one thousands years of fait in the catholic religion
Agnes Korondi Thank you. I was searching for this explanation. I always saw sun, moon and star illustration in all the Hungarian stories and wanted to know the reason. Now I understood. Thank you so much :)
Apeksha Udupa Also the Sun and Moon reflecting our Blessed Mother "Babba Maria/Maria with the Baby.Also we called Her:Patrona of Hungary
I really like all your stories
Great story.
What was the point with the buffalo-skin clothes?
I was wondering this too. I'm guessing part of the original story got cut out?
Maybe the coats were to protect against the wind around the tree.. and the boots needed to be replaced as he climbed?
"John climbed the tree for 7 days. Each day the wind was so fierce that it wore though his coat, and he had to replace it or be blown away. And the bark was so rough that he had to replace his boots too, or fall to his doom. On the 7th day he reached the top of the tree."
Or something like that?
I haven't read the original tale, so don't take this as fact.
Maybe to protect him from fall damage or air pressure
I've always wondered why do kings in fairy tales always promise half their kingdom to whoever marries their daughter. Often times the princess is the king's only child so what happens to the other half?
Merrypaws I suppose the king keeps the half he didnt gave away?
Taxes
I love these for I'm part Hungarian
6:22 this thing of something inside of something inside of something inside of something(almost all of these being living creatures) I saw it once in a russian animation of the toad princess.
It also reminds me of Koshchei the Immortal’s weakness.
Ofc it would be a russian! How else would we have russian dolls? XD
Check out Grimm's the Crystal Ball. A ball inside a bird egg inside a bull. It isnine of my favorite episodes of Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics.
Get it John
It's a jack the giant killer story....plus Samson told from Delilah's perspective
Smart king, he would give half of the kingdom and marry her daughter so he didn’t lose anything really
Very.... Similar to Jack and the Beanstalk.
Except John isn't a little shit.
One things for sure... Be kind to talking anything😉
Seems similar to Samson and Delilah
Dragon: Samson
Princess: Dalilah
The Dragon seems like a much better dude than the king.
king- fail and I’ll kill you for daring to offer your help.
Dragon- oh hey come eat with me and I’ll also give you a job
I can’t believe they were praying for this short King’s downfall,,, heartbreaking
The horse was a distant kin from Sleipnir
Am I the only one think of other thing when he said horse has five legs?
Also note how the horse KOs the bear with one hit from his "fifth leg"... that is one big/strong appendage xD
thanks again
You're welcome! :)
PLS HUGARIAN FOLKTALES!!!❤❤
Says: throws mighty battle ace
Shows: throwing Morningstar
Lol
Why are dragons so humanoid rather than the long necked lizards we see in other tales?
Hungarian folk tales also feature human-shaped dragons. He looks like a human, lives like a human, is malicious, and brings trouble to people. He has supernatural strength and power.
It's complicated, but essentially the idea of Wizards (and possibly djinn) got combined with the flying fire breathing reptile legends from Western Europe over in Eastern Europe, where a bunch of mythology from all over the world just sort of melted together to create something new. In the Hungarian/Romanian case, balaur (multi-headed, flying serpents that could breathe lightning) become associated with storms and winds, but wizards were also known for such deeds. So the wizards, locally known as Solomonari (presumably because they learned to bind and enslave demons from King Solomon, or were wise men like Solomon), who had magic powers and could control winds and storms, started to ride balaur whenever they went to battle. Eventually the distinction between the rider and the steed blurred, and we get three headed, scaly skinned, giant men who control the winds and storms and have a thing for stealing princesses to mock or torment kings.
@@stewartgames6697 That's really cool. I'd been wondering this as well.
It's just in this one to make the marriage less weird i think, in other tales they're usually more lizardy
For a second I feel pity for the dragon lol
I decided to peruse the comments section before watching the video for once. THESE COMMENTS MAKE ZERO SENSE!
They basically said she loved him as much as horse sh*t.
bro that horse is so hung he had five legs
This totally reminds me of an Adventure Time episode!!!😈😀😇
top 10 anime betrayal
0:33!
I time these to see how long it takes to mention kings, princes/ princesses or weddings. Hungarian Folk Tales- Us Magazine for the Dark Ages.
Better than Dhar Mann
Soo wasp specifically are considered souls moving on to the next world and also messengers of gods so you make sense to me
This is basically the story of Samson and Delilah but Samson isn’t the hero of the story
We're not addressing the King's hands?
Edit: the dragon is so extra haha he didn't have to open the doors like that
That's bigamy, yo.
"But if you don't rescue her, I'll have to cut off your head."
"Why?"
"..." *angry NPC face*
What did the Bison hid had to do with any of this though?
Your pig tells you you need a bunch of bison hide costumes, complete with a silly hood with horns, you listen.
@@stewartgames6697 I like this answer xD
How interesting this one is identical to "The giant beanstalk" hungarian version.
John didn't get a mustache at the end! Isn't this a hungarian folktale?
this is like samson and delilah
1:16 , that's a lot of main characters
The dragon was a lightweight
