[DocGnarvash]

@abbzkadilla thanks

[lvll138inrs]

when was this thing made?

[peoswriter1]

OH MY f... Justin Bieber can't be HALF as annoying as apparently 80 MILLION people who think that making another identical Justin Bieber joke is really freaking funny. Thumbs up this exactly 3 times just so that ONE video on all of bleeding YouTube doesn't have a Justin Bieber joke as a highest rated comment.

[Aaronation100]

@peoswriter1 WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH THIS VID?? , WEIRD

[peoswriter1]

@Aaronation100 No need to shout, but sorry if the comment was a little out of order.  At the time AntonelloZito94's comment was among the most popular comments for this vid, and the insipid combo of a Justin Bieber joke + another "clever" comment on the number of dislikes wore out my patience. Video-relevant commenting may now continue, everybody! Sorry for the interruption!

[Codyj543]

haha, recognized the LOTR music right at 1:00! works well

[Henrywhut]

What are those guys doing to those poles at 1:53 :S

[lewishaloboy]

@Henrywhut looks like turning a spit roast.

[utopia752]

This should get an award.

[bbsydpIrrigtion]

Jamshoro - In the Occasion of Rain .wmv

[Genzx123]

We watched this in History calss a few days back and I thought it was really good. wELL DONE WHOEVER DID THIS!!!!

[HelmutVillam]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

then obviously you dont have the first clue about England. Hastings and the Norman conquest are seen here as, along with the Battle of Britain, the most pivotal point in our nation's history.

[HelmutVillam]

I had to choose between seeing the tapestry and seeing Omaha beach, I chose Omaha and it was quite a sight but I would love to go back and see this now.

[k1nt4ro2]

I live in this town and i've saw the tapestry a bunch of times. you really did a great job on it!

[thevampirefrog06]

This reminds me of the old opening cartoon on "Mystery!".

[Hardrada88]

And William was crowned king of england on christmas day 1066. what a fuckin' liberty lol

[bailbail25]

How did you do this?

[Towerdevil]

whats the song from 2:15

[kyanna7787]

WOW i watched this in history class and...i cant tell u how much i learnt congratulasions on a superb film :-)

[L3G1TxRESONSxL3G1TZz]

wats the difference between a bottle and puberty a bottles already hit justin bieber

[kjarrij]

what's the song playing from 1:50 to 2:13 ?

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

In fact more and more historian think that the Gauls spoke a language close to the Cislpine gauls (Northern Italy) and that Latin was not so different (anyway both Celtic language and Italics lauage belongs to Celto Italic family). ancient gaulish language might have been like Latin/gaelic mix. And I don't know about you but o me 5OO years is not few generations lol

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

for example, Richard I couldn't speak English (he didn't even try to learn it) but just the dialect spoken in Anjou

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

I'm really Proud of the pepople that imposed French Language (officially for 300 years) and culture (like "the French style"=gothic art) to England

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

You can't understand that The kingdom of France was France as a whole and that what controlled the king directly was Paris. So that was not difficult to Angevin, Norman, Burgudian and Champagne duke to be more powerful and that's why they were

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Just a question: have you been in Normandy ?

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Funny people who think that people in Normandy are closer to those of Sicilly than to those of norhern France LOL.

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

During the angevin era, kings of England spoke French not Norman which is the closest language to French you can find on earth

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Just tell me why the motto of the British Monarchy is in French ad not Norman ?

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Where is France to you outside of Paris ?

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Yes, French lords from Anjou ruled Engalnd so they got land in it

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Normady coulndt be more powerful than France since The duchy of Normandy belonged to the Kingdom of France. What you call France is Paris lol

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

That's my point Franks lost their native language by beg outnumberd by the previous gallo romance population and interbreeding with them, like the Scandinavian did in Normnandy

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

that's my point. Breton is closer to welsh than Fench, flemish is closer to English than French. But Norman is closer to French than it is from Welsh and English

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Just tell me how a people can lose in only two generation its mother tongue witout interbreedin with a people that speak another language

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

If the Breton had invaded England you would have spoken something like Welsh but the Norman did invade England and there they just speak...FRENCH lol

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

Normandy was more powerful than the parisian royal domain for 100 years, Burgundy was fo more than 200 years. The ony differnce is that PAris and Normandy mde the kingdom of France while France just annexed Burgundy

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

As I said eralier you could find 90% of the place names in France that hve a non French orign. France is proud of its Scandinavian, greek, Roman, Frankish, Celtic heritage as england should be proud of its French (Angevin, Norman) heritage wich I think is biger than the sole scandinavian heritage in France

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

It seems than many english people have a complex with their French Heritage.

French was the official language of England for 300 years. Many english institutions were created by French lords from Normandy and Anjou.

1/3 of the English language is made up of French word (oddly it's bigger than , the old english part) does it mean that english people are 1/3 French ?

[Hypospice]

hate to be immature. but ..... X FACTOR MUSIC!

[inferno232]

I heard one side tried to kill the other side, and then the war started.

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

the Norman of the 5th century were basically the same people as the Norman of the 11th century that's why two generations after the Viking raids they still spoke the language of their Grandfather, it's really diffrent from what it happenend in England where the ANgles et Saxons replaced an other population

[gipcambero]

@JanaDOkarloviVari

90% of the places name in France have non French origin. For exmpale thr 3 most populous cities (Paris, Lyon ?marseille) have Celtic and greek names.

There is less norman speaking norman today than cornish speaking cornish. And from all the dialects spoken in France (before WW1, every frenchman only spkoe in its own dialect) Norman is the closest From Parisian (unlike flemish, Breton, basque)

[Coffeecrab]

@gipcambero People from the Congo speak French, does that make them French? Phillipinos speak English, does that make them English?

The Normans adopted French out of convenience, they had colonies all over Europe and the middle east and acted similarly abroad. They acted independently of France and warred with the French.

[gipcambero]

"During the century and a half after the Conquest, there is no English history. The French Kings of England rose to an eminence which was the wonder of all nations (). The Conqueror and his descendants were not Englishmen: most of them were born in France: they spent their lives in France: their speech was French: every high office was for a Frenchman: every acquisition on the Continent estranged them from our population".

Thomas Babington Macauley

[TeamHeavySuck]

The Bayeux Tapestry is a BRITISH masterpiece! Bring it home!

[LGKorora]

thank you kate beaton for recommending this. :)

[MrHistoryhelp]

wheres the music from?

[AntonelloZito94]

66 Justin Bieber fans watched this video

[superbieberfan16]

@AntonelloZito94 lol and i was 1 on them

[ratramnus]

Several of the Mediaevalists I was thinking about are-these are all current: Shirley Ann Brown of York University, Toronto, Martin Foys Hood College in Maryland, Michael John Lewis British Museum, Karen Eileen Overbey Tufts Univesity, Gale Owen-Crocker University of Manchester, Elizabeth Carson Pastan Emory University. I do not need to discuss scholarly items with rude people.

Best wishes

[rndmnonsense]

I love the warcraft 2 sound effects

[loveDaisyhamster]

we saw this in school and i loved it!

[Bellalodicci9]

The Saxons could and should have beaten the Normans back into the sea. Should have waited to recuperate and for extra reinforcements.The Normans were not the superior culture that some believe to be. Most tragic day in English history.

[Banerik]

Warcraft and Warlords 3 sound effects! So boss!

[Outoftheboxteach]

Great video! Favourited!

[fourganger88]

The bit near the end when the Gladiator music kicks in is fvcking epic.

[alexross8]

My people were killed on that day.

Now I have to follow post-Norman Culture . I can't say that I have ancestral culture , because my ancestors were killed , raped , and their culture was destroyed and replaced.

Thanks a lot Normans for ruining things.

[MARGARELON]

@alexross8 Man, way to hold a grudge.

[FengLong]

@alexross8 hehe alex~~ but the normans made us what we are today~

they didnt kill us all.. likely they took your ancestors land but in the fullness of time we all became one people.

and we (english) benefited hugely from the way they influenced our development as a society and culture over these last thousand years.

[ratramnus]

@alexross8 Just ike the Anglo Saxons invaders from Denmark did in the 5th Century to the indigenous Celts in Britain

[ADZ01982]

The English armys were fighting Viking invasions in the North while the Normans landed. By the time the English armies got down south they were exhausted however they had the high ground and were winning the fight until the Normans faked a retreat and the English chased them and were then defeated when the Normans turned around. Damn. I always wonder how English and even world history would have turned out if the Normans were defeated ...

[ADZ01982]

The Normans were vikings from Germanic tribes that were allowed to settle in France. The Normans also conquered Southern France and Crete and fought all over Europe and the Middle East. While the Normans invaded England in 1066 it took a further 5 and high casualties to pacify the north. However the English did benefit as they inherited large parts of western France right down to the Pyrenees. The English Empire then spanned from the borders of Scotland right down to Spain.

[beentheredonethatb4]

Wow. David Newton is very gifted. Great job of animating that.

[Anubis110]

I love how most of the sound effects and music are right out of Warcraft 2.

[nickAtlanta]

gipcambero, the Bayeux Tapestry was made in Kent, England, at the command of Odo, William's half-brother. The Normans are referred to as "Normannorum" in the BT. "Franci" is the term used by the designer to indicate all Normans, Bretons (Brittany), and other French.

You are absolutely right.

[utusernameut]

very good video. good work.

[Davidinofunghettino]

@utusernameut hahha that little peons:))

[toitoinebatt]

At that time France was very different today. Franks (french) were themselves of Germanic origin and the people breton came from wales.

[TinyArts]

Yay lovely sight ! Viking ships with their Dragon heads ! The Scandinavian invasion of England ! Normans or Nordmän as we say here in Scandinavia :D

[ADZ01982]

@TinyArts All the tough noble Vikings left to settle in other parts of Europe while the lazy ones stayed in Scandinavia.

[TinyArts]

@ADZ01982 Woman and children must be the lazy ones then :D

[alanbstard4]

they were not French. They were Norseman resident in France and spoke the language

[DarkHeart793]

My favourite book, Needle in the Blood, is based on this. It's an incredible novel, and it really makes you think about some of the mysteries of the tapestry :)

[poptartbabe234]

WHOOOOO THAT WAS COOL! I watched it in Humanites :)

[TheFashionistaLE]

i watched this in class we were looking at the battle of hastings =]
