The epic of Gilgamesh, the king who tried to conquer death - Soraya Field Fiorio

Ted-ed didn't tell this in video but Enkidu has se*s for 7 days and nights with the hierodula and in the tale has a 3 page por*nografic scene , and the relationship of Enkidu and Gilgamesh was more of lovers, , to much bromance.

"Afterwards they were inseparable" YEAH AFTER THEY KISSED XD

gigamesh

It's amazing how many other stories take their inspiration from this

He fairwelled to his immortal dream and resigned to his mortal fate.

🤔

كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ ذَآئِقَةُ ٱلْمَوْتِ

– الۡقُرۡآنۡ ٢٩:٥٧

প্রতিটি প্রাণ মৃত্যুর স্বাদ গ্রহণ করবে

– আল-কোরআন ২৯:৫৭

Every soul will taste death

– Al-Qur'an 29:57

It didn't inspire the old testament God inspired the the prophets he chose to write his words.

Dang! If only gilgamesh had an 8ball on him hed still b here today!

my man just wasted a lapis lazuli, he could have enchanted his pickaxe with that

If you came from college like this

bro had mystical rizz

I never understood the whole stripping thing in the Bible. Can someone please explain?

So is Utnapishtim Noah, or is Noah Utnapishtim, who copied who?

Accept your death, and you may find peace in life.

Can we get a moment to appreciate how they managed to translate this story from a writing system and language that was considered ancient even in the times of the roman empire

The words have striking similarity with sanskrit.

Legends of a flood everywhere. The Bible hasn’t been wrong yet

"Gilgamesh intended to stay awake for seven days, but fell asleep immediately."
Everyone in university/college: 🗿

Enuma elish

So Utahnapishti is Noah??

He r*ped everyone's wife until Enkidu show him why he was never satisfied with women.

I never forgive him for killing a loli 😐🤬

If he would've conquered death, i bet today he'd have asked death for mercy

they were... roommates...

I thought the bar would have been a irish pub

I thought this was another bronze age shitpost

Lapis lazuli tablet ??? Nice

Good ol' Enkidu, a wodewosen after mein own Vehmic hertz.

seems like there is the legend of noah in every religion in some form or the other.. noah for christians, nuh for muslims, utnapishti in this story... it just makes it more clear we are all human after all.. maybe having the same beginning.. just writing the stories in a slightly different versions of ourselves

There's always a leftover beer can at the top of pretty much every mountain I climbed. Why can't it be a bar ugh.

UD REEEAAAAAA, UD SUUUUUURAAA

Gilgamesh in Real life: Ancient King of Uruk
Gilgamesh in TED ED: Halal Imam 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Man this man was a menace and a player W this king’s rizz😂😂😂

Maurice won

Gilgamesh >Chuck Norris ???

This is a certified Fertile Crescent classic

There's actually a song called 'The Epic of Gilgamesh'

This does not prove the Bible wrong.

It looks like the Christians, Jews and Muslims all copied from the Mesopotamians 😂

It’s so crazy that Mesopotamians made a flood story identical to the great flood in the Bible and not only that the Mesopotamians were created long before Christ or any religion of today they were the first civilisation in history it’s just mind blowing to think

I love Gilgamesh and Mesopotamian mythology it’s just so cool

So ambition and “success-survival” is apart of life.
But don’t lose yourself in the process.
Be grateful what is in front of you and do your best 👍
Simple

My favourite part was when he killed Alexander the Great

literally me

I own an excellent kids version of this story with some amazing art work. I love this story.

Would the epic of Gilgamesh be considered a bible story? I noticed the characters have different names but stories can be linked to the bible. Ishtar was a pagan goddess and the story of the guy that was granted eternal life sounds like Noah and the Ark

Imagine this story 4000 years ago, how was man thinking 😮

The past tense of slay in this context is slew not slayed! Come on Ted!😂
