Nero’s Looney Tunes Matricide | Worst Kids in History  

Fun fact: Agrappina was a recreational sponge diver, which explains why she was able to swim as far as she could.

Agrippina also had a track record of having husbands, step-children, siblings, and children suspiciously dying upon Nero's ascension

Nero was definitely a sociopath, but he also definitely got that personality from Agrappina. Both were crazy crazy.

Agrippina could also qualify as Worst Mom in History. Nero didn’t kill her just for a power play. She was actively controlling and abusive towards him. Including repeatedly making him consume poison throughout his childhood, allegedly to build tolerance. One of the many reasons he grew to become a nutcase.

Agrappina had such badass Last words! Love the art as always! You're the Best

“Strike the womb that bore my son” is the best last words I’ve heard yet because of how hard it hits

Agrappina watching the crew beat her servant to death after she called herself the Empress: Bit odd init

To be fair Nero had reason to kill her. She had been poisoning him with lead lined cups which is why he was prone to chronic migraines, which in turn made him extremely short tempered.

So...we've had worst dads,worst moms,now worst kids...i'm curious if one day we'll get like a worst grandparents, worst in-laws or worst aunts and uncles in history lol

It gets funnier when you learn that he tried to kill her in other ways too only to fail. What worked in the end was a single sword to the gut lmao

Suggestion: the kids of Juana la Loca of spain who never bothered to reléase their mother from the imprisoment they imposed on her

That servant must've been so confused on why they were intentionally killing her as the "empress" 💀

Kids now? Dang there is a lot of crazy people in history

Telling 3 men to "strike my womb" sounds like the start of an adult movie

"dropped down on her looney tunes style" caught me so off guard i swear

She kind of deserved and not going to lie, especially after what she did to him when he was a child

The way I read it, the servant had figured out they were trying to kill Agrappina and pretended to be her so she could get away.

His mother had plot armour

Ugh, why is mom always ruining everything!

Nero was sick of being called deadweight. 💀

I think Nero and Agrippina both qualify for this. Him for worst sons ever and she for worst moms ever. They were both sociopaths.

Damn Nero was deadweight

Lincoln's son had his mother institutionalized.

NERO? ALL OF THESE THOUGHTS RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD

Agrippina the Younger is an equal candidate for “Worst Moms in History”.

Agrappina was basically Cersei Lannister. She schemed and lied and killed to make him emperor. Look how that worked out for her

If i remember the story correctly the issue with the couch wasnt that it was too big, but that because romans reclined sideways on couches Agrappina only suffered a mild shoulder injury and Nero didn't *Just* kill his mother for power and prestige but as revenge, in order to get Nero on the throne she married her Pedo uncle Claudius and gave him Nero as a plaything

Nero was a son from hell? Dang who pulled his devil trigger

Not to mention how Agrappina might've also killed like tons of people to get Nero on the throne too

Let's not forget, Agrapina the Youngest went out of her way to make Nero the emperor. She kind of brought that on her self

To be fair Agripina gras a pretty terrible human begin too.

Funnily enough Agrappina would also fall under worst moms in history as well. Since she was trying to control the kingdom through her son and was trying to replace him when he was no longer complaint.

You think that’s bad? Elagabalus was made emperor as a teenager and he had a pretty sick sense of humour. His idea of fun involved hosting lotteries where he’d mix the tickets with venemous snakes and catapult them into crowded streets, and he’d troll his houseguests by letting lions run around his palace. He was so ineffective a leader he only lasted four years before being assassinated by the same relative who made him emperor in the first place.

to be fair, Agrippina was not a model mother either. Like a textbook evil queen, she tried to use Nero as a proxy to rule Rome, but didn't count on Nero rebelling against her.

Mother: *breathes* Nero: PULL DA DEVIL TRIGGER

We need a "worst moms in history " episode of Irene of Athens! She is pretty much an Agrippina who supplanted her son.

Many of the the historical narratives written about Nero were from rival faction many years after his death and Agrippa’s “last words” were taken line from line from a famous play at the time. He didn’t play the fiddle while Rome burned it hadn’t been invented yet. He was at a vacation villa and immediately returned at news of the fire and opens the doors of the palace to those affected. History is written by those who hang heroes

This whole family was just batshit insane to be honest

The family jewels joke really hit hard. Lol

To be fair she kind of made him like that. She was also psychotic

Yeah the last words go hard, but like she poisoned Claudius (this is more believable then the alibis conspiracy’s) who was one of the better Roman emperors to put her son on the throne. So very little sympathy for that one

Fun Fact: nero was so 'hairy' he banned saying the word goat around him was against the law.

"HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! I got you a booby tra- I mean a nice relaxing cruise!"

immediately thought of juana of castile’s son, bc like didn’t he let his mom be put away and called crazy? or was that just her husband and father’s doing.

The mother has plot armor, she's the main character for sure.

“Strike me here, where the monster was nurtured”

his mom was literally evil though...

Well... Agrappina wasn't the best mum either, she did have her own killing issues to get to be empress.

She would also fit for a worst mom from what i understand but Nero was still worse then her by alot

i love the charactars, they look so cute

It may sound ignorant on my part but I thought Roman women lived isolated lives? Like the amount of strength and energy it took for her to swam all the way to the shore seems like the was relatively active

In reality Agrippina was the evil mother, Nero was just a theater child forced to be his mother's puppet who only had him to have the throne, she manipulated him and constantly belittled him and the murder was something that everyone in the empire agreed on because the woman was a real witch, being the mastermind behind Nero's murders, she was the one who drove him to kill to get the throne The mental damage that Nero's mother had on him was such that even after her death, Nero felt haunted by her ghost

It’s very important to know that this account was written years after Nero’s death by his political opponents and was most likely fabricated. The story of Agrippina (especially the part where she asks to be stabbed where the monster is created) was ripped almost entirely from mythology.

Everyone ever hates Nero for one reason or another, but his Mom really took the cake.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, apparently.

don't feel too bad for her, she poisoned her husband (and uncle) Emperor Claudius to death in order to put Nero on the throne.

Suggestion: Best parents in history. Marie Curie could make the list.

Nero isn't just the worst kid in history, he's one of the worst people in history

I guess you can say that Nero must've had a lot of thoughts running through his head when he saw his sister still alive.

Little context: Agrippina poisoned the previous emperor, so her infant son can become her puppet emperor, while she ran things. However as he grew up, Nero started to assert his independence, so Agrippina started threatening that she would replace him with his cousin. So, taking a page from *her* book, he poisoned his cousin… yeah, Roman families were messed up

She is the sole reason he came to power in the first place

Agrappina also tried to gain control of Rome through her own son, Niro. Accounts also stated that Niro tried to kill her mother because she was a psychopath. Niro was no better, but Aggripina tried everything she could to seize power in Rome. She slept with her brother Emperor Caligula and tried to have him assassinated in a coup with her younger sister and her middle sister’s widowed husband. Caligula ended up banishing her and it wasn’t until her Uncle obtained power in Rome that she returned on a pardon. She then married her Uncle and gave birth to Niro.

Hold up, make your research about Nero mom, she was evil she makes Cersei look like a child

...And for Nero, that's scrapping the Ice Berg of his attrocities

Suggestion: Thutmose III had the worlds coolest aunt/stepmom (Hatshepsut) who taught him everything he knew about being a great pharaoh and he repaid her by attempting to completely erase any trace of her existence from history and took credit for all her accomplishments

On my FYP, I found, Worlds Worst Dad, Mom, now kids. Whats next? Worlds worst brother 🙏😭

She was also possibly the worst mom in history to be fair and nothing that was written about Nero wasn’t political slander from the elites

Agrappina was a wicked woman who killed her husband the Caesar after she persuaded him to leave the heir (his own son) to be her son... she had what was coming.

Nero was horrible but he definitely got that from Agrappina who did pretty messed up stuff to make sure her son (Nero) and not Britannicus became emperor and she definitely acted way more based on her own interests then his.

Are we going to ignore the part where Agrappina was poisoning nero most of his life?

Neron was one of the worst kid ever but aggripine wasn't one of the best mom. And she was probably the worst nephew

I really enjoy your different perspective on, not only history, but the entire take of families and generations over the years. You have some very fantastic original content. Keep up the incredible work please and thank you! 😊

"Im the empress!" *gets jumped* The actual empress: uh, im a crew member!

You know, when you learn about the kind of woman Agrippina was, you have to wonder if Nero really did such a bad thing.

New series idea Best moms in history?

i love your artstyle man

Bro is legit a deadweight💀

Fun fact: Nero is supposedly responsible for burning Rome down and blaming it on Christians, though historians today think Nero himself didn't do it

Should've gone into hiding rather than altering Nero she was alive. He may've just assumed she'd drowned.

I love the animation in this video

Due to all of this, his father Vergil cut off his arm and turned it into the Yamato, to seperate his own humanity and inner demons. Then Nero had to replace his now stump of an arm with a mechanical replacement from his Texan friend. To defeat his father Nero teamed up with his uncle, wacky pizza man and V. Wacky Pizza Man fights the inner demons of his brother, king bowser, defeating him. V shows something really cool to King bowser and becomes Vergil once more…. Did I mention the tree?

It’s not like Agrippina was a good person either. She murdered emperor Claudius by poisoning him and several other contenders to the throne so that Nero could be in charge.

I would have been a bit suspicious too I like to think

nero deserves a whole series

Don't forget to make a video calling her out. She was just as bad, if not worse than Nero. In fact, IIRC, her letter only fanned the flames by implying that she thought he was too dumb to come up with a Looney Toons plan like that. That whole family was the type to anger The Devil with their psychotic shenanigans. Here he is trying to run a planet (1st John 5:19, 2nd Corinthians 4:4) and prove that he and/or Humans can decide for themselves what is right and wrong (Genesis 3:1-5), and he has to deal with people like this. 🙄 They were so awful that even mental illness and lead poisoning can't account for their behavior. Nero was a better leader than some historians and anecdotes make him out to be - like that likely exaggerated, or outright untrue story of him fiddling while Rome burned - but he was as evil and horrible overall as his parents. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: When both God and the Devil think you're wrong, you are wrong.

A suprising amount of people say that Nero is the Antichrist but like, hes too obviously evil for that role. Isn't the Antichrist supposed to make people think hes good?

What a coincidence….My cats name is Nero and he meows 5-10 times in a minute for attention 😂

Love how we didn't mention any of the incest allegations and accusations involving his mom.

This woman was just as horrible as her son. Had an incestuous relationship with her brother Caligula and then her uncle Claudius, probably poisoned Claudius, then his freedman Narcissus and then Claudius' son (her cousin and step-son) Britannicus. If that wasn't enough, she was likely doing the horizontal tango with Nero himself too. (Incest bingo anyone?) What's funny is that this assassination attempt was not the first one, there was a previous one where Nero tried to have the roof of Agrippina's house fall on her. (Interesting side-fact: Future Emperor Titus was a stalwart companion of Britannicus. He was at the dinner where Britannicus met his end and, upon realizing what had happened, drank from the same cup that had poisoned his friend in an attempt to die with him) (Interesting Fact Number 2: Agrippina also REALLY hated Titus' dad, also a Future Emperor, Vespasian)

I'll be honest some of Nero's stories make me wonder how much of things like this are true. For example, Nero playing a fiddle while Rome burned is a horrible thing, The only problem is that the fiddle wasn't invented for centuries after his death.

worst deadweight in history

Y’all we had worst dads in history without Henry VIII!??

Oh! New series! Yes please ❤❤❤❤

Nero was literally insane as a result of his family and the amount of power he held at such a young age.

Agrippina: "What a beautiful child-he will be so good when he is older." The Child:

What if you did a series called "worst coughs in history" and its all about the worst plagues

"Its you, its you" -my mom

It’s not 100% confirmed she said that, all surviving stories of her death contradict eachother and themselves and are generally considered Fantasy

Here we go again.

I think worst grandmother goes to Athalia - she was a foreigner who became a surrogate queen after her husband died, and she had all her children and grandchildren killed so she could keep the throne.
