Fun fact: Another man, the king of Leinster, Diarmaid mac Murchadha, actually decided to pull off what happened in the myth in 1152 by abducting one of the wife of the king of Breifne, Tiernan O'Rourke. In response, the high king Ruadhri Ua Conchobhair deposed him in 1167, and he in response, called over the Norman leader Richard de Clare, aka Strongbow, to invade Ireland, marrying his daughter to him. Diarmaid got back his throne, while Strongbow got a large chunk of Leinster. In response, Henry II was forced to invade himself so that Strongbow and any other Norman lords didn't become too powerful, and established the Lordship of Ireland, beginning English rule of Ireland.

The animation is funny, and the narration is humorous and witty. Such a tragically poetic myth. One moment's hesitation over past grudges can lead to tragedy.

Bring back good memories. Took a class on Irish Myths back in the day with some good friends. Lovely retelling of one of my favorite myths.

Having grown up in Ireland with these stories and remaining here still! it’s both incredible and beautiful to see the work put in to bring our mythology to wider audiences! I look forward to many more of these!

What's even sadder is that Diarmuid isn't totally to blame here. He was hesitant but it was Grianne's geas that made sure he would stick with her.

There's plenty of such love triangles in myths around the world but this one was one of the most unique ones with surprisingly multidimensional characters.

Wow, that was a great story. Loved the ending even though it was sad, it was very intimate (?) with the self evaluation of suppressed resentment caused him to lose someone he became freinds with again. More pkease!!

This was a sad but a really inspiring story! Love your videos Ted Ed!

What I heard:- Girl is promised to old man. She runs away with the first young-ish man she sees. Puts the young man under her spell just incase. Old man finally lets her go and even reaches out to broker peace. Old man is at fault for not saving the life of the person that stole his wife-to-be and humiliated him in front of his own men. ... You know, in Greek mythology this would have been seen as divine retribution. The boar would have been sent by Zeus and Hera would have planted the seed of hesitation in his heart to make the water slip. The entire pantheon would have been on it!

My friend called my with a long list of mistakes i made in our friendship. I felt betrayed because she forgiven me when I asked for forgiveness and also while i tried to be a better person. Seems like that my efforts werent good enough for her and when she argued me with the list of things i made wrong the friendship ended. Id been fuming for days hurting myself with the anger... the ending of this story made understand that anger and resentment can ruin our lives and the lives of others arround. I preffer to understand that she might have some issues to work on and that me holding on to anger is not benefiting me in the long run. We might not be friends anymore but i dont have ill will towards her. I wish her the best.
