1
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,200
In the previous videos, I told you

2
00:00:22,300 --> 00:00:25,400
about the dark stories from the old books

3
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:30,300
of Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel and other 
Disney characters.

4
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,500
In this video, I might ruin the good reputation

5
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,000
of one of your favorite Disney princesses.

6
00:00:37,100 --> 00:00:41,100
Surely, you know the story of Aurora from 
The Sleeping Beauty

7
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,600
about how she was saved by a true love's 
kiss.

8
00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:50,400
But in this video, I'll share the real origin 
of The Sleeping Beauty

9
00:00:50,500 --> 00:00:54,400
and I'm pretty sure that you'll never forget 
this story.

10
00:00:54,500 --> 00:00:58,000
Are you ready to have your perspectives of 
Aurora's happy fairytale to be changed?

11
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:01,700
Was the true love's kiss really the one who 
woke the princess?

12
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,500

16
00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:15,000
Before we discuss the first version,

17
00:01:15,100 --> 00:01:19,800
let's recall first the Disney version of 
The Sleeping Beauty.

18
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:23,700
In this movie, there was an evil fairy named 
Maleficent

19
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,100
who has deep hatred towards the King, father 
of Aurora.

20
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,000
In a celebration for Aurora's birth,

21
00:01:31,100 --> 00:01:34,600
the evil fairy came and cursed Aurora.

22
00:01:34,700 --> 00:01:36,700
On the 16th birthday of the princess,

23
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,900
she'll be pierced with the needle of a spindle 
wheel

24
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,500
and will immediately die.

25
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,300
One fairy managed to lessen the effect of 
the curse,

26
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,700
instead of dying immediately, she'll just 
fall into a deep slumber

27
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,200
and only a true love's kiss will wake her.

28
00:01:52,300 --> 00:01:57,300
The King ordered all of the spindle wheels 
in the palace to be burned

29
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,800
and the fairies brought Aurora in the forest 
to protect.

30
00:02:01,900 --> 00:02:07,600
Aurora lived in the forest with her fairy 
godmothers for 16 years.

31
00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:10,700
However, she's still clueless of her real 
identity

32
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,000
and she knows nothing about being accursed.

33
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:17,400
One day, she happily danced alone

34
00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:22,500
and she met Prince Phillip from an another 
palace.

35
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,700
They immediately fell in love with each other

36
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,800
but their relationship ended as the fairies 
decided

37
00:02:28,900 --> 00:02:30,600
to bring Aurora back home to the kingdom

38
00:02:30,700 --> 00:02:34,000
for Aurora might know about her real identity.

39
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:37,200
It's a mistake for the fairies to leave Aurora 
alone.

40
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:41,100
Because of this, Aurora fell on the evil 
fairy's snare

41
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,400
and that's when she got pricked by a spindle 
wheel.

42
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:46,900
When Prince Phillip knew what happened,

43
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,900
he immediately went to save the princess.

44
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,200
The good fairies helped the prince

45
00:02:52,300 --> 00:02:55,300
which resulted in finally killing the evil 
fairy.

46
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,600
When the prince kissed Aurora, she woke up

47
00:02:58,700 --> 00:03:01,900
and they lived happily ever after.

48
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,200
Isn't this story of Sleeping Beauty beautiful?

49
00:03:05,300 --> 00:03:08,800
But would you believe that in its original 
version,

50
00:03:08,900 --> 00:03:11,000
there was rape and cannibalism?

51
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:16,400
The original version of this was written 
by Giambattista Basile in 1634.

52
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:19,900
It is entitled "Sun, Moon, and Talia".

53
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,000
And here's how the story started...

54
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:28,200
This story began with the baby named Princess 
Talia.

55
00:03:28,300 --> 00:03:31,000
Unlike the Disney movie, there was no curse 
here.

56
00:03:31,100 --> 00:03:36,400
But fortunetellers has said that something 
bad will happen to the princess

57
00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:38,700
that was connected to any things used in 
sewing.

58
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:45,000
Because of this, the king ordered all materials 
related to sewing be thrown.

59
00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:47,900
Several years have passed and when Talia 
has grown into a lady,

60
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,900
she saw a woman outside the castle

61
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,800
who uses sewing materials such as needle 
and yarn.

62
00:03:54,900 --> 00:04:00,400
It was her first to see such things so she 
told the woman to come near the castle.

63
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:03,000
Talia took a good look at the needle.

64
00:04:03,100 --> 00:04:08,800
She got pricked by the needle and a part 
of it was left inside her nails.

65
00:04:08,900 --> 00:04:13,500
Because of this, she lost consciousness and 
never woke up.

66
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:20,500
The King knew what happened and everyone 
thought that the princess was dead.

67
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:27,000
They all left Talia's home residence with 
her body.

68
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:30,100
No one came near the house, including the 
King

69
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,500
as he was in deep sorrow for losing his daughter.

70
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,400
After several days, a King of an another 
kingdom

71
00:04:37,500 --> 00:04:40,300
discovered the abandoned house.

72
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,300
When he entered, he saw Talia.

73
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:48,300
He did everything he could to wake the sleeping 
woman.

74
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,000
This King believed that Talia wasn't dead 
yet.

75
00:04:52,100 --> 00:04:55,900
And here's where the story gets odd...

76
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,000
After several attempts, he got tired of trying 
to wake the princess.

77
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:05,000
However, he couldn't stop himself from getting 
attracted to the sleeping princess.

78
00:05:05,100 --> 00:05:09,900
Because of this, the next thing he did was 
something you wouldn't like.

79
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,200
He raped the unconscious princess

80
00:05:13,300 --> 00:05:16,300
and then he left to go back to his kingdom.

81
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:22,600
The King didn't know that he got Talia pregnant 
with a twin: a girl and a boy.

82
00:05:22,700 --> 00:05:27,500
After 9 months, she gave birth to the kids 
unconsciously

83
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:33,000
and it happened with the help of the fairies 
similar to the movie.

84
00:05:33,100 --> 00:05:40,300
After birth, the fairies helped the babies 
to drink milk from their mother.

85
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,700
One day, one of the babies sucked Talia's 
fingers

86
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:49,500
and the stucked particle of the needle in 
Talia's nail was suddenly removed.

87
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,400
Talia immediately woke up and as her appreciation 
to the twins,

88
00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:56,600
she decided to take care of the babies.

89
00:05:56,700 --> 00:06:01,500
According to this story, Talia didn't know 
that the twins were hers.

90
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:09,100
The King remembered Talia and he decided 
to come to see what happened to her.

91
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,300
He was shocked to see that the princess was 
awake

92
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,300
and he was more shocked to see that she's 
with twin babies.

93
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:22,900
The king was totally glad that he told Talia 
the whole story of why she gave birth.

94
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,700
The king stayed to that house for several 
days

95
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,200
and their family were somehow happy.

96
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:32,500
But the king has to leave again to come back 
to his kingdom.

97
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,900
However, the king was too happy with Talia 
and their kids

98
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,100
that he kept on mentioning their names "Sun, 
Moon, and Talia"

99
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,800
even though he was already married to someone.

100
00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:48,800
His real wife heard the names he mentioned

101
00:06:48,900 --> 00:06:50,700
and she began to become suspicious of him.

102
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,300
The Queen had scared off the King's secretary

103
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,600
to tell her who Sun, Moon, and Talia really 
are.

104
00:06:57,700 --> 00:07:02,500
Because of fear, the secretary confessed 
that the King has another family.

105
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:10,000
In the Queen's anger, she ordered the secretary 
to send Talia a letter with the King's name.

106
00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:13,400
According to the letter, the King missed 
the children

107
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:16,200
and he invited them to come to his castle.

108
00:07:16,300 --> 00:07:20,400
Because of this, Talia sent the kids to the 
palace.

109
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:24,100
The Queen ordered the chef to kill the children

110
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,000
to cook and serve for the King's dinner.

111
00:07:28,100 --> 00:07:31,600
Luckily, the chef pitied the children.

112
00:07:31,700 --> 00:07:36,500
He brought them to his wife to hide and protect 
them.

113
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,600
He cooked and served young sheeps instead.

114
00:07:41,700 --> 00:07:45,500
Later that night, the King and Queen ate 
dinner together.

115
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,400
While eating, the Queen kept blabbing weird 
stuff to the King

116
00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:54,100
because she thought that the King was already 
eating his children.

117
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,800
However, the King had no clue on what the 
Queen was doing.

118
00:07:57,900 --> 00:08:01,500
He only got annoyed and slept in their villa.

119
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:08,100
The Queen wasn't content so she sent Talia 
a letter with the King's name again.

120
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:13,000
According to the second letter, the King 
is inviting Talia to the palace.

121
00:08:13,100 --> 00:08:18,100
When Talia arrived to the palace, she was 
welcomed by an angry Queen.

122
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:22,500
In the Queen's anger, she said hurtful words 
towards Talia.

123
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:28,400
As much as Talia wanted to explain, she thought 
that the Queen won't listen

124
00:08:28,500 --> 00:08:30,700
no matter how she begs to her.

125
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,800
So Talia thought of another plan.

126
00:08:33,900 --> 00:08:38,200
She wished if she could undress before she 
got burned alive by the Queen

127
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:41,800
so her pretty clothes won't be ruined.

128
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:44,500
The Queen agreed not because she pities her,

129
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,100
but because she wanted the clothes that Talia 
was wearing.

130
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,300
As to what Talia had planned, she undressed 
very slowly

131
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,400
while crying extremely loud.

132
00:08:54,500 --> 00:08:58,200
Meanwhile, the King is coming from his villa

133
00:08:58,300 --> 00:09:00,900
and he heard the loud cries of Talia.

134
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:06,100
There he saw naked Talia in front of her 
legal wife.

135
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,100
The King as the Queen on what she was doing.

136
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,900
The Queen answered that she's not only going 
to burn Talia

137
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,200
but she had also fed the children to the 
King.

138
00:09:17,300 --> 00:09:20,700
The King was disgusted and got extremely 
angry at what the Queen had done.

139
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:26,300
In the King's anger, he ordered his secretary,

140
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,700
the queen, and the chef to be killed and 
burned.

141
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,400
The secretary and the Queen was punished.

142
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:37,800
But when it was the chef's turn, he told 
the King that he saved the twins.

143
00:09:37,900 --> 00:09:43,300
Because of this, the King, Talia and their 
twin children got together

144
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,300
and then they lived happily ever after.

145
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,500
The original version of The Sleeping Beauty 
is really

146
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,400
far different from the Disney version that 
we know.

147
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:56,200
Personally, I was glad at the part where 
I realized that

148
00:09:56,300 --> 00:10:00,300
the true love that woke The Sleeping Beauty 
was from her children.

149
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,800
And here's where this video ends.

150
00:10:02,900 --> 00:10:06,500
If you're interested of the dark stories 
of different Disney Princesses,

151
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,900
I'll drop some playlists that you might also 
be interested in.

152
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,600
Once again, thank you so much and now taking 
a leave, Dokumentador.

153
00:10:14,700 --> 00:10:22,000
(See you again!)
