Dragons of Mythology | Fire Breathers & Wise Serpents
In every mythology of every culture on earth, there exists a story of a dragon. They all bear unifying traits, yet no two are exactly alike in either appearance nor behavior. Some are winged fiends that breathe fire or venom, such as the Wyvern or Cockatrice. Some are serpentine beings filled with wisdom such as the Chinese Lung. Some are seen as gods or demons, while others are large enough to fit the whole of the earth in their coils. This program will detail a handful of the most famous and most magnificent dragons of myth and legend!

Dragons are definitely one of the coolest and most badass Supernatural Creatures.🐉🔥
I just love dragons. And I personally believe that dragons were &:remain real. From all the different cultures, with each their own variations on the dragon theme, I am ever-fascinated by them. I've got dragons on my mind constantly!😅 Thanks MU for this & all of your excellent uploads. I hope that everyone's evening goes famously darlings.🌹💜🌍🌌
Dragons are the greatest monsters in all mythology.

What an absolute shocker!
What an enchanting journey into the realm of mythical dragons! This video expertly delves into the rich tapestry of dragon lore from cultures around the world, captivating viewers with tales of fire-breathers and wise serpents. The meticulous research and vivid storytelling make this exploration both informative and enthralling, offering a deeper understanding of the cultural significance and symbolism of these majestic creatures. Kudos to the creators for bringing these legendary beasts to life with such creativity and insight
Thank you for the early birthday gift. After all, tomorrow is my big day - the day I turn 21. I adore the cockatrice the most. I found it not only bizarre and deadly, but I found it fascinating and beautiful. Thanks to you, I learned some new dragons as well and revisiting the cockatrice and Beowulf’s dragons. The Western Dragon, doesn’t matter the subspecies of them, has been a part of my Celtic, Nordic, and Anglo-Saxon ancestry. Keep up the good work! Hope to see another video of yours next week!

Dragons are amazing.
Dragons are definitely the peak of folklore and mythology. I’d also like to see a whole episode about the tale of Beowulf.

It's a good day when a new video drops
This is just the video I needed today for the story I'm writing on - very inspiring. I admired dragons all my life
Dragons were my introduction to mythology as a whole, specifically the Welsh Red and Saxon White Dragons from Arthurian Legend. Is it any wonder they immediately became my favorite mythical beast(s) of all time.
I recognized Smaug from the cover of the BBC Hobbit audio book, St. George fighting the dragon as depicted in the Fantasy Encyclopedia by Judy Allen and it is nice to see the Lambton worm picture from Dragonology again. This is a magnificent video.
I didn't know "Long" meant dragon as like a suffix in Chinese, that's kinda cool
Yes, more videos about dragons would be great! There's so much variety in these world-spanning creatures that you could make lots of videos about them and not run out of material!
Dragons are one of my all time favorite mythical creature.
Dragon's now these are interesting legends.
Wyverns are my favorite dragons
I love dragons ❤ The dragon Smaug fascinated me for years.👍
My favorite dragon? Why Puff of course! My favorite dragon story is The Children of Hurin.
Please make a video talking about the myths surrounding Mars.
There are stories in which people can transform into dragons, which inspired movies and series such as Sleeping Beauty, The Sword in the Stone, and American Dragon: Jake Long.

last name you mention, gave a massive burst of nostalgia
Don’t forget Y Ddraig Goch (the Welsh red dragon emperor). He’s the ally of Merlin and he fights the white dragon of the Anglo Saxons till the death
For me I've always liked the look of Drake's & Wyverns then Japanese & Chinese Dragons they're my 4 favorites
Great episode! Dragons are my favorite mythological beast. 🐉⚔🔥
How about the half-human, half-dragon race of Shotan(?), i.e., Goro, Kintaro, and Sheeva from the "Mortal Kombat" series. There's a great story added aspect inspired by dragons. For those who don't know, they are very large, powerful, beastie-like humans, each also having four arms.
I would love to see more videos with universal backgrounds. Perhaps golems or trolls.
The story of the Wyvern reminded me of Game of Thrones when Daenerys raises her dragons they eventually go out of control killing livestock.
Thanks! Ur welcome 😁 love watching ur channel 🤘😎 no thank u ✨❤️🔥
Would love to hear more about mythological dragons like Kulshedra!
What I don't understand is that why both European and Chinese dragons are called and translated "dragons" ("Long" translates into dragon in Chinese, which is also used to call the European dragons in China) in both languages? They are two completely different creatures apart from flying and fire breathing, that look or represent nothing alike. If this was a one-way translation error (a language simply translating a word into something similar enough to the translator) it would make sense, but the fact that this occurs both ways despite of the total difference of the two seems so amazingly unlikely and yet it is how we translate them. Anyone knows more about this?
I had no idea about some of these dragons besides Ryujin and Jormungandr.
The Last Dragon aka Dragons: A Fantasy Made Real is a 2004 docufiction of if dragons were real how would they b, by following the laws of physics.
I love dragons.
Cool,I love dragons.
Great video.
If I wanted a dragon. I’d like it to be like Toothless from Dreamworks or the Chinese dragons since they control water instead of fire
My favorite dragon of legend is Smaug. I like Jormungandr, too.❤
Fun fact: Jormungandr was one of the Jötnar (race of Norse Giants), not a dragon.
Let there be dragons
You know after seeing that dragon in the city and the mere mention of an American Dragon Just had me thinking about American Dragon Jake Long
LOTR other Dragons make Smaug look tiny in comparison namely Ancalagon the Black and the Father of all Dragons Glaurung. Fafnir it is another famous Dragon of Norse myth.
Ddraig is my favorite dragon
✌️😀 wow i collect dragons 🐉 n have posters of dragons 😁. Have the 1rst edition of Smaug from McFarland toys 😅 . Thanks so much 🤘😎✨🐉
I think The Hobbit is mine and everyone's favorite dragon story. Smaug is possibly everybody's favorite dragon, mine too ❤ But Jormungandr is cool too 👍
Eastern Dragons watching Western Dragons eat fair maidens & burn down kingdoms: "~sigh~ Europeans🙄"

Why do I picture an interaction between them, with the western dragon being short-tempered and impatient, while the eastern dragon is calm and patient
6:51 Me when I eat garlic and onions
Can you please also do a video on Beowulf?
Woot woot 22 like! 2nd comment! Wish is mine!
Dragonlance novels. As a child of the eighties, that’s all I have to say
Just so happens i've an actual robotic dragon i brought from Walmart which even breathes smoke (just add water) like a real dragon: i call him "Nul'atorr,destroyer of worlds & usurper to the very throne of the King of the Monsters..!!!"😮❤😊
cool
10:30 yes please; i'd love that.
Don't forget the Scottish Mountain Dragon It's got 4 limbs Bat-like wings and it has a wrecking ball like mood Benevolent one day and so violently angry that even the Devil won't mess with him He's mated with the Welsh Dragon and gave birth to several Shamrock Dragons which themselves Are incredibly violent and will kill any knight or king that tries to steal anything from their nest but they do help when the needy come to them
What about the legend of the viscous black dragon Fafnir and the Dragon Slayers Siegfried/Sigurd?
Is it just me or can we maybe sympathize a little bit with the Wyvern or the Lambton Worm? I mean, on one hand I get that they grew to be destructive in their respective environments, but on the other hand, their stories are pretty sad. I especially feel for the Wyvern, who was raised by a young girl when it was a baby and then it ended up being slain by a knight when it was an adult, basically for being a wild animal in a domesticated environment. Poor thing. 😔 And the Lambton Worm? Well gee, if I was a small animal just minding my own business in a pond and was suddenly caught on someone's nasty fish hook and then tossed down a well, I'd be pretty pissed off, too. 😅
Dragons are cool yet when it comes to romance, it could be difficult since they lived longer and humans don’t live that long the way dragons can

Guys! Im guessing we are all here because we LOVE dragons! I have recently made a discovery that sounds so ridiculous when I explain it I would call myself a crazy person if I heard what Im about to say. But we all grew up with the tales of old/ Dragons, giants, beasts of unimaginable proportions. LEGENDS! We have all asked the question at some stage I would imagine. If they were real where is the proof? The answer is, they are literally EVERYWHERE. The problem is once you see them youre going to try to say its bullshit. But, I only ask that when I tell you where some of these now dead legendary animals are, I ask that you dont just look at the shapes. Please zoom in and examine the details. There is still visible bone structure that hasnt degraded yet. One of these animals is Leviathan. Measuring 14500 kilometers in length with a head over 1000 kilometers high. These measurements were done using google earth. His Head starts beside Wake Island Just below hawaii you will see his skeletal remains just laying there beneath the sedimentary ocean floor is the resting place of the leviathan. Zoom in closely, look at the spine still intact and the fins are 100 kilometers in length alone! The Kraken is laying next to Leviathan. The Continent of Australia is the resting place of the Kraken. It IS the Kraken. Again Look closely zoom in and you can perfectly preserved details of tentacles all connected to the main continent and you can even follow the tentacles to the very tips and they match EXACTLY with living specimens today! The truth IS out there. :) seriously you owe it to yourselves. . The ancient Scandinavian lore says it was so large it could cover continents. I live in new zealand. New Zealand is Part is a tentacle. There are some "calcified concretions" scientists have said formed randomly perfect however if you examine the landscape these Moeraki Boulders are not what they are said to be. They are cephalopod remains. Specifically the acetabulum which is the round muscle that controls the suckers on the tentacle. These monsters are every where. The Hafgufa a giant fish Thor embattled. The body is Novaya Zemlya. Look at the details of the landscape as you would a small fossil through a microscope. there are veins, flesh fins and even the tail crosses over tot he mainland of northern Russia. It is also the Giant fish with an island on its back that is mentioned in the story of St brendan holding a sermon on the back of this fish. Remember these are fossils, and this explains why we think they are myths now. But theyre there.
