@imonyourfacewoot The Saxon and Hungarian chronicles would have you believe that he was insane. But to get a realistic sense of the man, look at the Wallachian and Russian chronicles as well. Vlad the Impaler was reminiscent of king Leonidas of Sparta. And should be regarded as a hero
@imonyourfacewoot yeah? and meanwhile he was dining near rotting corpses the other europeans were looking with sadistic pleassure at public executions,burned women alive just because some cocksucking priest tought that they were withces etc. think about it...that was how peaople rolled in that time..and some of them are rolling like this even in the moder times..look at the period between 1900 and present day..world war I,holocaust,hiroshima & nagasaki. the killings americans do in middle east..
@imonyourfacewoot mate,,if he did not impaled 20.000 turks then many of his people would have been died and others would have become turkish slaves...walachia was outnumbered military by all its enemies..so vlad used the fear factor and night ambushes to even the scales....when its war..the best thing you can do is to make as less victims as possible..thats what he did..oh and btw he didnt murdered inocent ppl or children..he did not drank his enemies blood..those are fat lies
One of these rumors you were talking about is that Vlad was said to taste the blood of his fallen enemies, as to gain their strength. Not because he was a haemophiliac, but because it was bad ass. :b
I feel for ya Zooc. I'm macedonian and we were about 5 centuries under the control of the Turks and when we asked for help a guess what we got . We got separated to Greece , Bulgaria and Serbia .
lool im bulgarian too. gota say we didnt like turkey at that time either, to be honest i dont think anyone did. but vlad sounds pretty badass, more badass than when we thought he was a vampire
zooc , vlad dracul was named like that because he had an insignia on his chest of something like a dragon / devil and people were saying "Look the one with the devil" , my history teacher told me , im romanian
@negoitagabi zooc too is from romania and u are so wrong how can u say that his name came from a insignia omg vlad dracul has name like that because
"His father was a member of the Order of the Dragon (Dracul) and Dracula means son of the Dragon to indicate his father's title within the Order of the Dragon"
they people saying "Look the one with the devil" because they didn't know that dracul means dragon you know (or don't and you just say something wrong)
@Feelslikeafish Dracula is a vampire....Vlad is not...The main influence for the character of dracula is a Hungarian countess named elizabeth bathory, research her a little, fun stuff. Biting chick's tits and bathing in virgins blood etc.
@bladetrinitii Yeah, I know they are mythological, but nevertheless, Bathory had way more influences on modern vampires than Vlad did. Vlad impaled his victims, nothing else. Bathory drank blood etc. Tell me how Vlad influenced vampires more than Bathory.
Thanks for making these videos with such frequency! Always enjoy them and I have to say I always learn something. This was one of my favourites, really interesting to listen to and great to see something a little different on the drawing front.
Hey the guy who founded the Odrer of the Drake was not only Hungarian but also Czech king! There were those husitic wars, but he still was "de lege" king of my country as well.
One thing i have heard about vlad is that he had a skin disease that made his skin pail wihte and very sensetive to sun light. Correct me if i am wrong. Anyway nice drawing as always
When I was a teenager I had a great deal of interest about Vlad the Impaler. Sure, Bram Stoker's Dracula was in theaters, but I knew that Dracula was a real, historical figure & wanted to learn more about him. His methods may have been extreme by today's standards but they were damned effective.
i thought vlad would take the people he hadnt killed (this is what i learned) and while they were being impaled he ate his food in front of them and would take part of there blood while they were dieing, i guess a lie?
I knew most of that suff and i think, that Vlad is a hero of the Christians. Btw, I am from Bulgaria and Vlad looks a little bit like our khan Krum, you can go and check him out in google. (He trinks wine from the skull of Emperator Nikifor from the Byzantine Empire)
Excuse me for the grammar mistakes, as I mentioned, I'm from Bulgaria.
Been to romania 4 times now, last time I went to the "moviecastle" of dracula.. what a joke :) I can understand why my girlfriend (romanian) said there was no point in going there just a bunch of bullshit for american tourists..
The stories I heard growing up in California were the ones about him and the Turkish envoys, impaling them. I guess I have my father to thank for at least getting PART of the story right :)
That was a fantastic drawing Zooc, my favourite so far. I've always loved the Vlad Tepes story. Though I do have a question. I watched a doco that said he used diseased soldiers to spread sickness in Ottoman camps. Do you know if that is true or not? Either way though, it's bloody good tactical thinking.
you said how some romanians hate hungarians for screwing them over. i have to say its the same deal in bulgaria, alot of us hate the turks hor being assholes, killeng, raping and taking away our children and turning them into a army against us.
I would just like to mention richard the lionhearted. He coned inocent muslims in jaruzalem in to a holy place (not shure wich one) and slaughtered them all only for being muslim. People from the west like to demonize east european leaders and forget their leaders were/are just as bed or even worse. Vlad at least tried to save and straingthen his country, wich is more than i can say for Richard.
History is something that can never be interpreted to it's fullest accuracy ,a heroic figure to a nation can just as easily be a mentally disturbed visionary to historians and researchers from all nationalities.
While i agree that some serious propaganda and dirt slinging was done against Vlad at that time ,most famous of his supposed obsession of dining next to his impaled victims,there's also a lot of evidence to support the claims about his cruel impalement methods down to the last detail.
@ILoveRavenc yeah he was a sadistic mf but he wasn't the only one. Vlad borowed the impaling method from the turks alog whit some other methods like the cutting of the hands for the thiefs. He was just a scapegoat but torture was applied in all over the world.
Good painting as always Zooc... more of this if i may put out a request draw like big historical character like Djingis Kahn, Adolf Hitler and stuff like that...
Thumbs up so that Zooc can read this people!!!! ^^
Foarte tare desenul, fetele iti ies din ce in ce mai bine. Si foarte buna ideea, ii mai invatam si pastia cu ce se mananca Vlad Tepes ca de la Twilight au innebunit toti cu vampirii. Tine-o tot asa!
this much i know about dracula he was a war lord he would impail people and eat in front of the boides and whin people came after him he put the shoes on his horse backwards and ran off idk iff they killed him
in america that isn't the story that we learn about Vlad Dracul... we learn that he impaled hundreds of innocent people up the butt with stakes because he thought it was entertaining... i'm confused as to if THAT is true or if i've been lied to...
@ZoocDoesStuff There's a "fun" moment in history where, in order to wage psychological warfare on a superior army (i cant recall the origin of the army), he lined the trees at the edge of a forest with the heads of slain soldiers, and the sight was so unnerving it held off the opposing army from advancing.
@bowsicraft3 Where does he get his research? If i did my research, i could come up with a million different stories about Dracula. Hell, if i did "research" i could find a book or website saying that Hitler was the true incarnation of god. That isn't really good enough.
@KennieFitz In America, we get lied to a lot about history, even our own history. Through generations we've become really good at hiding the truth from ourselves and our kids; there's a whole bunch of fucked up reasons this happens, but I digress. To have even a decent understanding of world history you'll have to go far beyond Wikipedia and a history text book, seek out multiple sources, look at things from every angle and always question what you read.
@KennieFitz you have to understand that at the time, that region was pretty much raided periodically by at least three neighboring powerful nations that were conspiring against Wallachia and Moldavia, depending on their personal interest. now, I'm not saying he wasn't crazy or evil, just that maybe one needs to be that way to get revenge on the "mighty" and powerful.
and yes, it is said that he did not tolerate criminal behavior of any kind, regardless of whether if was a child or woman. death!
I enjoyed this video very much, there is something very enthralling about it. It is probably because it's so clear that the story of Vlad is something important to you. On that note, sorry that the children of the interwebs like to shit on the things you hold dear. Love you man.
@masterfulmonkey97 Lincoln was a big man... he fought for the independance of afro americans... not all the Famous people need to be involved in wars... look at Hitler he wasnt a bad ass he was a psycho with a little to big brain... He's famous but not bad ass ^^
all I know about my past ancestry is I have a handful of ancestors from around Romania, and that I have a fair bit of Celtic "blood" as well. My family lost a lot of the documents about where our family came from, on my fathers side it ends at wales and my mothers side it ends in ireland, but I went to a local place and saw my family had been in the Romanian area for a long period of time, though I forget if they were important or not.
I think you should do more like this, it would be interesting to see which other historic people you admire. For the record most info regarding him came from fake letters & German leaflets so it should be taken with skepticism like everything. And killing women/children was not as "morally wrong" than killing anybody in the past. And most modern leaders kill women/children in wars? with bombs and such, Zooc said Vlad took extreme measures, which might include the impalement of innocent people
I've read quite a few books on Vlad and watched hours of documentaries as well, and there are some flaws in this video. To start off with he did kill children, he impaled entire villages to ware off Ottoman Forces, he saw children as enemies who were not old enought to fight, he also did dine on blood, he used to dip chunks of bread into bowls of blood while dining and watching his guards impale people. But most of it was right and might finally help people understand who Vlad is :)
@MrPsychoblondie96 He is romanian-born just like me. I am pretty sure we know more about Tepes than you do LOL :) ... You've read western books with propaganda and legends. He did impale ottomans, thieves and criminals but he never impaled villages of innocent children and women. :)
Very interesting! Your story about Dracula was like reading literature directly in youtube.. Now I know the REAL story about Dracula! Your drawing is just magical. Good luck and happy drawing, Zooc! :-)
Anyone else notice that he is in the same pose as the "imminent Ned" meme?

@bowsicraft3 Where does he get his research? If i did my research, i could come up with a million different stories about Dracula. Hell, if i did "research" i could find a book or website saying that Hitler was the true incarnation of god. That isn't really good enough.

@KennieFitz In America, we get lied to a lot about history, even our own history. Through generations we've become really good at hiding the truth from ourselves and our kids; there's a whole bunch of fucked up reasons this happens, but I digress. To have even a decent understanding of world history you'll have to go far beyond Wikipedia and a history text book, seek out multiple sources, look at things from every angle and always question what you read.

@KennieFitz you have to understand that at the time, that region was pretty much raided periodically by at least three neighboring powerful nations that were conspiring against Wallachia and Moldavia, depending on their personal interest. now, I'm not saying he wasn't crazy or evil, just that maybe one needs to be that way to get revenge on the "mighty" and powerful.
and yes, it is said that he did not tolerate criminal behavior of any kind, regardless of whether if was a child or woman. death!

I enjoyed this video very much, there is something very enthralling about it. It is probably because it's so clear that the story of Vlad is something important to you. On that note, sorry that the children of the interwebs like to shit on the things you hold dear. Love you man.

all I know about my past ancestry is I have a handful of ancestors from around Romania, and that I have a fair bit of Celtic "blood" as well. My family lost a lot of the documents about where our family came from, on my fathers side it ends at wales and my mothers side it ends in ireland, but I went to a local place and saw my family had been in the Romanian area for a long period of time, though I forget if they were important or not.

The game 'Stronghold Legends' basically covers this story word to word (with some mythological critters thrown in!)

I think you should do more like this, it would be interesting to see which other historic people you admire. For the record most info regarding him came from fake letters & German leaflets so it should be taken with skepticism like everything. And killing women/children was not as "morally wrong" than killing anybody in the past. And most modern leaders kill women/children in wars? with bombs and such, Zooc said Vlad took extreme measures, which might include the impalement of innocent people

@ZoocDoesStuff when speeding up your drawings do you keep it at the same speed or do some bits go faster than others

I've read quite a few books on Vlad and watched hours of documentaries as well, and there are some flaws in this video. To start off with he did kill children, he impaled entire villages to ware off Ottoman Forces, he saw children as enemies who were not old enought to fight, he also did dine on blood, he used to dip chunks of bread into bowls of blood while dining and watching his guards impale people. But most of it was right and might finally help people understand who Vlad is :)

@MrPsychoblondie96 He is romanian-born just like me. I am pretty sure we know more about Tepes than you do LOL :) ... You've read western books with propaganda and legends. He did impale ottomans, thieves and criminals but he never impaled villages of innocent children and women. :)
