That sound setting change is awesome (the white noise is still there slightly but it’s much better now) Thank you!, also you and Let’s find out ASMR are the only male ASMR voices I can listen to. And I can say for certain you have the more relaxing voice
I really enjoy your channel! The intonation of your voice is incredibly soothing and perfect for winding down at the end of the day. I’m constantly amazed by the fascinating facts, intriguing stories, and rich history you share in each video. Your content not only educates and entertains but also helps me achieve the most restful sleep. I never have to worry about staying up or getting distracted. Thank you so much for creating such an exceptional and calming space-your channel truly makes a difference in my nights!
Would love to hear you do the Scythians sometime; arguably the most well-traveled and culturally influential of all the ancient equstrian cultures; and a significant culture in Queer history, too.
Thank you for this video! As a Hungarian it always feels nice when non-Hungarians cover topics so integrated to my/our culture and history, and also it was nice hearing a more objective approach to this topic. Hungarians can get very biased about this topic I feel like 😅. Coincidentally I just started reading-reading one of my favorite novel, “The slave of the Huns” (which I highly recommend to anybody interested in Attila and the Huns) when the algorithm recommended me this video. Anyway thank you very much for the great content ❤
Another great video ❤ I was falling asleep and thinkong and came back later and wanted to share some ideas I had: History of: Gold (properties metallurgy veneration culturally value) Mount Everest (summit attempts from mallory to hillary, view of tibetan culture, incredible conditions of the weather) Mercury (element history use from medicine to alchemy to modern) Domestication of cats (a feline follow up to your dogs and wolves video) Alchemy (Ancient times, notable figures in history likle John Dee, Paracelsus, legends of lead to gold and eternal life) Easter Island (from the famous heads to the explorers from the west to the population leaving after deforestation) Astronomy Development of Cartography Ocean navigation Linneaus and beginning of biology taxonomy Water (ice, steam all its properties and forms, differences between salted oceans and freshwater lakes) Calligraphy (east and west) Gutenberg press and history of paper (ancient times onwards sumeria egypt china etc) Another colours video sequel doing other shades than red, green and blue I'm sure you have a million video ideas! but please if any of this list sparks one off please take it with my blessing. ❤
To be fair to early medieval Europeans: a nomadic group coming from the east and looting their land, it's kind of logical to associate it with the last similar occasion. To associate the Magyars with the Huns is like how the Romans sometimes associated the Huns with the Scythians.
Thanks for the volume instructions! I turned it off. A bit of a delay for it to turn off but it's done. The sound is better, I think👍🏼 I am a huge fan of your videos so this won't stop me from watching.❤ Keep these brilliant videos coming! PS: my fave video is the "wild children" video and also the history of color. Would love more like these! ❤ Thanks for your content...helps me to fall asleep. Merci!🇨🇦⚜️
No additional settings on my youtube menu (using android samsung tablet), so activated desktop mode (in browser) and the youtube additional settings menu option then becomes available. Switched the youtube stable volume setting to off... back to mobile mode on browser to watch vid... shall find out now
I love how Attilla, Spartacus and Boudicca became beloved figures against the classic Roman Empire after it fell proper in the 400s. (Western, Eastern took longer) Would we even know about them if the Roman Empire never fell?
I’m interested to hear if the 585AD eruption of Krakatoa and its global impact show up in this timeline. There is a theory that the western push was also influenced by the horse-centered economy struggling from environmental changes.
Bonjour, peut être je ne suis pas à la page mais pourquoi ne faites vous plus de vidéo en Français ? Toutefois, vos vidéos en anglais sont superbe et nous permettent aussi de nous faire réviser indirectement 😅
Atilla put me to sleep, thankyou, but woke up to what i thought was a mouse or rat in the bedroom chewing on something. Every time I moved to look it seemed to stop!. 😱 Your fire crackles freaked me out! 😅 x
I’ve been listening for years. I absolutely love your content. And I agree with turning the “stable volume” setting off. However, I notice that in the past few installments you seem to have changed your microphone and recording setting. There is the slightest delay and a hint of reverb. Personally, I think it detracts from your soothing vocal tone. It sounds just a tiny bit mechanical.
Je vais être un peu critique, je suis désolé, mais ça fait vraiment vraiment longtemps qu'on n'a pas eu de vidéos (si possible un peu plus courtes) en français. Comprenant moyennement l'anglais, la concentration pour comprendre ne m'endort pas. Il 'y a que toi qui fais de bonnes vidéos historiques ou scientifiques en ASMR (hormis Nyxia, mais on ne la voit plus).Stp, stp, stp...
Ca va! Thank you for the directions for stable volu.e. totally removed that problem. Thank you too for your vids they are massively interesting and effective.
