The novel Inferno by Dan Brown features someone with a similar ideal to Thanos, wanting to majorly reduce the world's population to solve humanity's major problems. In the book, the villain is specifically inspired by the story of the Black Death, believing that its population culling of Europe is what allowed for the age of enlightenment to follow.

For those of you interested in knowing...the Black Death was even more twitted than you imagined. Actually, when a flee is infected by Yersinia pestis, the bacteria develops in its gut and creates a biofilm preventing it from absorbing nutrients. Therefore the flee becomes hungrier and hungrier. This means it tries to feed much more and kill its rat hosts much faster and is even more attracted to larger prey like cats, dogs or humans...

Thank You. I really enjoy your videos here. I want to add this about Norway. I am a Norwegian. The Black Death did not turn out so well here. It killed off 2/3 of the population and left our country in ruins. Up to the plague Norway was on the height of its power. And in the late 1200 Magnus Lagabøte (Lawmender) gave us the first laws that gave some rights to poor people, workers and women as well. Some of these are still in our constitution. But after the plague, in 1380, we came under Danish rule. Generally referred to as «The 400 year night». That was kinda harsh, until 1814 when Denmark that had sided with Napoleon had to give it up. We were then «given» to Sweden. And in 1905 we broke free, very peacefully. So, we can say that the effects of the plague lasted this long. From 1349 until 1905. Thank you again. This is good history.

They just went to places to take the pretty and valuable stuff, ignoring or even destroying whatever information was present in their ignorance. Europe just has a lot of stuff remaining that's still intact. So it's far easier to find detailed reports. China also has a lot. As do some middle eastern countries.

Simon, I have got to say your narration and writing is superb. I've watched many videos and documentaries on this topic, but you have a sophisticated air of someone knowledgeable and not sounding like a History Channel narrator trying to pass on his message like an inflamed gossip mill. I've been watching quite a few of your Biographics and Geographics works, and I have to say you have a very even voice, very even and balanced provision of information and always, keep your sponsorship's bits short, to the point and over quickly to get back to why we decided to click on this video in the first place. Thank you so much for your research, writing and professing the findings of everything, everyone, everywhere.

I LOVE the way you structure this one. The personification of the disease is very well done!

What an interesting way to frame a major historical event. It worked so well for the video, and for Biographics' style of presentation. Wonderful writing as well. The video was as captivating as a really good novel, and I loved the whole thing. Even if this might be a one-off for Halloween, I would love to see more historical event videos framed this way.

To your point, the past participle of "got" in American English is still "gotten," as in "it had gotten too cold." In England, "gotten" no longer exists. That said, it's at least agreed upon that "Ring Around the Rosie" is based in Black Plague. I personally learned that it did, in fact, come from children who could do nothing more than mock the horrors that were going on. To think that this has been the very first communal dance that children still learn gives me a chill. I did it as a toddler as do the children I've met today.

Love that skit

Thank you, Brilliant!! These vids are ABSOLUTELY interesting!💖✊👍🤗

Thanks for sharing 🎉story 🙏 the past always repeats itself

Can I just say the script for this episode is one of my favorites! It's so vivid yet chilling, bravo!

My favorite video of the series by far he just has the right voice to narrate something so harrowing. Keep up the amazing work

Anyone watching this in March 2020. Simon forecasting the future!

I started off watching the casual criminalist since I'm a crime junky but I'm learning so much on this channel that it's mind blowing. Thank you for making these videos!

This is definitely one of the best episodes yet. You've set a high bar for yourselves now. I'm hoping to see the Dalai Lama episode soon.

Ratatouille didnt mention any of this. 😳

Aaactually it did. There was a short about this narrated by Remy. He claims that the rats were victims here as much as humans and the fly is the main guilty.

You were suppose to watch ratatouing

Great video, would be great to see a follow up about the second pestilence

An excellent video, thank you. Please do make a video about the plaque of children in the future, I'm sure it will be fascinating.

I love how this was scripted like it was an invasion.

I found it interesting and informative. You guys are awesome. Thank you.

Extra credits will always hold my heart, but you and Babish just have those soothing voices that i can listen to forever.

I don't quite remember when i was happy for watching a video, please continue this with more about world events rather than personalities

Love the writing. Narrated perfectly by Simon.

Ooo a very fitting episode Thank you

I loved it! It was so much information. Great job as always.

How timely this is documentary. Well done.

That was brilliant! Brilliantly written and brilliantly narrated. Please do one on the Plague of Children. I'd never heard of it.

You know, the Spanish influenza was even worse. But it is not as well known due to war time censorship. Pple were not informed untill they were ill. Make a video about that one too?

The 1918 Spanish Flu killed a greater number worldwide, but it was a much smaller proportion of the global population compared to the 14th century.

Then just have a video about malaria, it's the deadliest disease.

man the people back then were so resilient, that amount of the population dying would destroy modern-day society, but they survived

Very good and informative video👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.

Please make a biographic about the measles!

I've been absolutley fascinated by the art of the black death by various artists during the time ever since I picked up Black Sabbaths Greatest Gits as a 5 year old and is what set me on my artist path til this day. Great video guys! ✌

Very interesting and educational video!

3:15 "Trapped in purgatory a lifeless object alive awaiting reprisal death will be their acquiescence sky is turning red return to power draws near fall into me, the sky's crimson tears abolish the rules made of stone pierced from below, souls of my treacherous past betrayed by many, now ornaments dripping above awaiting the hour of reprisal your time slips away raining blood from a lacerated sky bleeding its horror creating my structure, now I shall reign in blood...

Poland also accepted Jewish refugees from Germany where Jews were being blamed for the plague and murdered en masse.

This video was absolutely brilliant Simon mate, incredible content well done
