- Dive into the Greek myth of Helios and Phaethon, where the Sun God allows his mortal son to drive his chariot for a day.
--
Every morning, Helios unleashed his golden chariot, and set out across the sky. As the Sun God transformed dawn into day, he thought of his son, Phaethon, below. To prove to Phaethon that he was truly his father, Helios decided to grant him anything he wanted. Unfortunately, what Phaethon wanted was to drive Helios’ chariot for a day. Iseult Gillespie shares the tragic myth of the charioteer.

I love how the ancient greeks would look at a group of stars and be like. Yep looks like a scorpion to me.
Actually it was the Sumerians. The Greeks took the ancient Mesopotamian star charts and weaved their mythology to explain the names of the constellations. The twelve labors of Heracles essentialy explain the Babylonian constellations of the Zodiac in a Greek context.

Okay.
It is amazing how often Zeus is linked directly or indirectly to many of the Greek tragedies. Like, this wouldn't happen if his son had been quiet.
As far as i remembered, ur statements is correct dude,.. 🤔
This time Zeus did it to save the freaking Earth from exploding.
@@RGC_animation but he is linked indirectly because one of his sons instigated doubt upon the poor boy
Zeus is the basically the reason anything bad happens in the first place 😂
He is bored so he keeps trolling everyone...
And fucks around ...
Hm, let’s see:
-Demigod
-Curious demigod
-Demigod gets what they want
-Zeus incinerates them
Yup, sounds like a Greek story to me.
Yup
Yeah, Zeus is typically the end all be all in most Greek Myths haha
hahahhaha
Wait isn't that 50% of demigods in greeks mythos are zeus children
At least this is one example of a myth where, in Zeus's defense, it was either fry the kid or fry the earth.
He died all because of Epaphus saying that he isn't the child of a sun god
Self-doubt is everyone's biggest enemy.
Nah, he died bc he wanted to be special, ain’t nothing wrong with being normal
What do you expect from a son of Zeus except a few here and there
The instigator
Which is bullying. Which is hate. Good observation. "Science!" Next! ✌️
In some versions of the story, Cygnus, Phaeton’s friend (and in some versions his lover), begged the gods to give him the power to save Phaeton from the bottom of the river. They turned him into a swan, but when he swam to the bottom of the river, it was too late and could only recover Phaeton’s body. Cygnus would spend the rest of his days in mourning as a swan, avoiding the sun because it reminded him too much of Phaeton. Upon death, the gods placed him in the stars as a constellation with Phaeton.
I would omit mention of the possibility they were just friends at this point, especially in a Greek myth.
@@tarod3 literally 🤣 ain’t no way
There's friends and there's greek "friends". Either way it's pretty cool
True bromance.

For those interested, this story is mentioned in Ovid's opus Metamorphoses, I can't recommend it enough.

"Phaethon felt there was but one way to prove their connection to the world and himself."

"He needed to drive Helios' chariot for a day."
Of course. This kid I swear.
Even moreso, his FATHER. Like, come on man...
If Greek gods could take DNA tests, Zeus would appear on the Maury show
Yea god's don't have dna
@@atroll9996 by having a baby with a mortal or god? Like am i supposed to say "WiTh DnA"
To be fair, DNA tests and electricity weren’t invented yet. So how else could he have proven that he was the son of Helios?
This story is a perfect and stark example of how parents give into the whims and wishes of their kids rather than guiding them properly leading to problems. Also it is a reminder that even gods are not perfect
The entirety of greek myth is a reminder that gods are not perfect.
*Greek gods
@@ethandew1768 They are less gods and more lessons of hubris.
@@ethandew1768 very VERY far from perfect, some might even say they are bad lol
greek gods are superpowered immortal children
I mean, who wouldn't put the fate of our solar system into the hands of a young naive child without so much as a driving licence?
To be fair, Helios absolutely knew that, he didn't want to give him the reins
Cars didn't exist then
And its still a demi god soo
@@oswizzle8542 read between the lines. If you carry on in that mindset, poetry and literature won't make any sense to you. Obviously I was being satirical about a driving licence. I was extending the thought that he doesn't even know how to ride a chariot, and he isn't of age to even drive.
@@oswizzle8542 The entire catalyst of the story is the kid having his demigod status called into question. Additionally, as the original comment implies, the problem of giving a child control over the celestial chariot is not a matter of power, but of responsibility and experience. A child isn't unfit to control the course of the sun because he's weak, but because of his inability to understand and properly chart its route.
“Here Phaethon lies who in the sun-god's chariot fared. And though greatly he failed, more greatly he dared.”
That's something Ovid wrote dude, not Fry
@@wilburn5881 my mistake. I just can’t recommend that book enough
It's Phaethon,
Greek: Φαέθων
Same goes to Achilles.
Are you a Dev for Fable?
I remember one of my mythology professors described this as the myth where a teenager crashed his dad's car.
thats the best way
Lmao, but sincerely for once
Wow !! That's relatable for an example in today's words !! 😁
But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
1 Samuel 16:7, now how do we distinguish these people? Matthew 7:19-20 Jesus says Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
God bless.😊
Is amazing how humanity searched for a really creative way to explain a catastrophe like ice age. The sun was in the sky then it went away and everything froze because his son was uncertain of himself.
Fact: Little Ice Age (LIA), climate interval that occurred from the early 14th century through the mid-19th century, when mountain glaciers expanded at several locations, including the European Alps, New Zealand, Alaska, and the southern Andes, and mean annual temperatures across the Northern Hemisphere declined by 0.6 °C (1.1 °F) relative to the average temperature between 1000 and 2000 CE.
And only for a day
Ice age was thousands of years before human civilization and it's myths and religions became a thing, no one knew that long ago an ice age happened, we know that because of modern technology based on geological, chemical, and paleontological discoveries, ancient greeks, or mesopotamians, or Egyptians or chinese didn't know about ice ages
@@Yanzdorloph don't underestimate our ancestors. The world didn't melt one day to another, it took years. It's still happening. It's not hard to guess that before ice it was all green or that after the winter always came spring. Remember they were pretty smart, they sort of thought the whole world and invented things we still use or imagined myths we still tell. They saw glacier become lakes.
@@nearry382Reamy no they didn't, the first human civilization ever only appeared and formed 5-6k years ago a bit after humans discovered agriculture and became sedentary and started creating cities, last ice age ended 25k years before that, now just sit and think about it for few seconds. think bro, think, you're saying that the Greeks knew about the ice age at that time when we only discovered that ice ages exist only recently in 19th century ?
@@Yanzdorloph hijo usted es weon?
I love how we can see and learn with these beautiful and differents animations for free.
Yes
"Differents"?
It's not free. CZcams and its sponsors are mining your data getting millions and millions while you watch it for "free."
Why you want pay for this? Then why don't you give some donation to the channel.... We appropriate it beeing free thank you.
They are well put together animations and riddles but I enjoy learning the real life history and or scenarios. Every plot line you see from a riddle or story didn't just come out of no where, they are based off of real life.
As Solomon said, "there is nothing new under the sun"
Dude really had nothing going for him except he had a famous dad.
This myth totally applies to many untalented children of celebrities with a huge fail and than back to just being just a rich kid 😆
Yer it's pretty embrassing
xD
Brooklyn Beckham or other nepo babies
I always love how Greek tragedies/stories are about the flaws of both humans and gods. Not only was Phaethon too confident and stubborn but Heleos was not able to refuse him the impossible task.
Another version
As a young man, Phaeton could take the rein. But along his journey, he meets monsters his father usually encounters on his daily basis. He swiftly managed to dodge them all until one, Scorpius. It startled Helios's horses(four of them) and Phaeton lose control. The ending is all the same.
Helios is still a better dad than the gods of Greece.
hes still a better dad than those who went to "buy milk"
i mean he is a god of greece himself
No he isn't. He literally abandoned his kid and then when he got tracked down he let his kid recklessly throw his life away. Probably the worst dad outside of Cronus...
@@seanwhitton455 his father asked him not to 👀
But he still wanted to be a big boi, now he’s dead 💀
@@seanwhitton455 Didn't abandon, his wife took the kids. Which he then would obviously only have limited access to, and certainly be reluctant to meet. And he reluctantly let his kid throw his life away, only at his own extremely persistent request.
I agree he isn't the best dad, but far from the second worst. And at least he loved his kid, which you can hardly say for any greek gods.
Helios is the Greek god I portrayed in our class when I was studying Greek Mythology 😁
@@frfras7 Helios= Ήλιος in greek
Helios is actually a Titan not a god. He just let the Gods and Titans fight it out so when the Gods won, he was left alone.
@@goofytnt2126 titans are gods. There is no difference between them. Every hymm to Helios says that he is a god of the titans. Also he participated in the side of Zeus during the titanomachy, altrough his involvement is obscure.
Ancient Greeks were lucky enough to see stars & constellations in Night sky unlike us.
I need to travel 10 km from my city just to witness some stars, Never saw Constellations.
Someday I'll see that Phaethon Boy
in constellation & remember this awesome story & video. Thanks Ted Ed.
its called light pollution
@@zentar2646 I don't use such Heavy words.. 😂 People may scare away.
Like - Mythology video & this guy talking about Pollution. 🤔
so true, I'm living in the bangalore city, can hardly see, but late at night when people are sleeping, it's a clear sky and moon isn't there you can see most constellations.
I can see orian almost every day even when there's moon but maybe not at as clear as it'll be without moon's light.
Well how interesting...
In Hindu Mythology too, we were told the story about how HANUMAN( Monkey god - The son of Wind god) saw the SUN and thought of it as a mango fruit.
As he was the son of wind god, he had the power of flight, so he went after Sun, but INDRA ( Chief god of lightning - Similar to Zeus ) feared that Hanuman will eat the whole sun... So he attacks Hanuman with Vajra!! ( A lightning bolt weapon in Sanskrit )
I was going to comment that.
Did you know the Thunderbolts thrown by Zeus are Vajras made by Hephaestus?
This is why the territory conquered by Iskandar shared religion as they all harmonized
Good old Proto-Indo-Europeans and their myths
@@L3onking these stories are much older than Alexander
@@puneetmishra4726 I know, and there's been countless migrations too, but I just find it wholesome that the descendants still have the same values of prioritizing their crops over Billionaire con artist schemes. I wish more people could interact with spirits cause only then would they see the parade of support we get from our ancestors.
🥺 We're so blessed to be alive
From now on, everytime I look up to the sun, I'll think of Helios' smile and Phaethon's confidence!
I think it's much more plausible that, every time you look up to the sun, you'll think "GAH! MY EYES BURN! SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT!"
I don’t blame you. Helios is hot.
My eyes would be burning right now
@@popoya2297 Exactly!
in another version Helios was so depressed with the his son's death he gave his position as the sun god to Apollo, hence why Apollo eventually replaced Helios as the main solar divinity
Woohh! I was confused there because Apollo was also the Sun God. Now I know.
in the version i know (stephen fry's mythos) it's totally the opposite (phaeton in apollo's son and so apollo gives up his position to helios) except helios is a titan and prolly older then apollo so the other version makes more sense
That history do not exist. Helios was always the sun god, Apollo was also the sun god in some cities and sometimes confused with Helios. But if Helios is the Sun God, he never give up his position to Apollo.
@@mikayugu316 sorry but that information is incorrect. Helios is the sun God always. Apollo was confused with Helios in some cities, and since Apollo is most well know than Helios, some adaptations put Apollo as the Sun God. But Helios never stoped being the sun god. After the death of Phaeton, the other gods convinced him to take the reigns again and be the Sun one more after a Day without solar light. But he never stoped being the sun god in mythology.
@@megumin4564 both are not true. Do not believe everything you read. Apollo or Helios is the sun god, but not both. If Helios is the sun god, them he is always the Sun, he did not took this from Apollo, nor Apollo received anything from him. One things greeks where sure is that the Sun is the same since always. So the Sun literaly changing would not make amy sense.

This is why I loved the Greek mythology so much! The way they tell stories are enthralling and full of wonders and surprises.Tragedies abound as well as death, din and despair but we still have Hope inside Pandora's box.
who doesn’t love a good ol greek myth?🥰 thanks Ted-ed very educational
His mom was really like "you don't believe your the son of the sun? Go ask him yourself 🙄"
Imagine he had simply believed her. (-_-') She was the parent who stayed, yet this is what she got from that son of hers. A tragedy. And to think it left the sisters unable to move on from the grief, yet another tragedy.
I finished reading Ovid's interpretation of this. A sad ending for the young boy Phaeton. Not to mention that his father was prepared to grant him anything and everything he could ever wish for, short of driving his chariot. Nope! That boy needed to ride across the sky and getting up there only then did he realize what a horrible decision he had made and he paid for it with his life.
The interpretation is simple
3:55 AND THEN ALONG CAME ZEUS! HE HURLED HIS THUNDERBOLT!
Thank you so much for making such wonderful artworks and narrating these myths so beautifully. These videos make my day!
Love learning about myths from different cultures, thank you!
I really like the way Ted Ed serve stories of d/f mythologies
This story seems similar to hindu mythology story of lord Hanuman he is also son of one of God Vayu the god air and wind and so he have great power in his childhood he fly over to sky to space and eat whole Sun thinking it as a ripen mango and as he ate Sun the god of lightning and thunder as well as king of gods Indra hit him with the bolt called vajra to save the world from darkness , as it hit lord Hanuman he fell to earth in grief of his child lord vayu take all the air from the world and when all gods bring lord hanuman back to life lord vayu return the air
It's not mythology, it's a legend
One of the most beautiful mythological video by far. Lovely voice along with amazing animation.
@Out Brake It's just a piece of information my brother I am in no case worshiping it nd i won't do that. But there is nothing wrong in appreciating the beauty in something.
Great video, but Helios is actually a Titan not one of the gods. He was around before Zeus took over and was favored by the gods because, you know, everyone likes light.
Yes totally, Apollo took over as Charioteer of the Sun as part of the whole Olympians usurping Titans of their domains after the titanomachy
Titans are not Olympians, sure.
However, both Titans and Olympians are gods. It's basically two distinct generations of the same enlarged family.
Therefore, saying "X is a Titan, not a god" is a huge contradiction.
@@shiningfaceofluzon5594 it wasn't really a case of taking over it's just the way myths evolved, Apollo was a loved deity with a chariot that flew through the sky, helios was a diety with a chariot that flew through the sky so they two merged in later myths
@@shiningfaceofluzon5594 that's more of a historical thing than mythological; the Romans, around 300BC decided to merge a few gods to remove confusion, hence helios merged into more prominent apollo
I do not think that "apollo taking over helios by some epic battle or whatever" is mentioned anywhere in the myths
moreover, titans were eradicated by the gods before itself, and a few handful ones were kept by Zeus himself like helios and Selene and atlas (coincidental), so it doesn't match all that apollo-replacing-helios-since-he-is-dead thing
Titans are still gods they were just given the title of titans by Kronos, Just like the Olympians are still gods they were just the 12 man ones that lived on Olympus, its generally because of their generation that the names change
4:37 "Strewing Phaeton's likeness in the stars"
*Shows a group of starts arranged in a vaguely rectangular fashion*
I love how Western stories like this are. If it were a Chinese story, Helios or a friend of his would have allowed Phaethon to drive the chariot, but only if he was willing to undergo the necessary trained first. Only after Phaethon has put in the blood, sweat and tear for it would he be allowed to take the reins. The drama and allegorical content would be presented during the training and represented in the results of the training, but Phaeton will never be given the reins until he earns it first, regardless of his birth.
and that's why nobody knows/remembers a Chinese myth...
The Greco-Roman world had the concept of hubris, placing yourself above your station, becoming arogant, thinking you are as powerful as a god. A lot of their myths teach about the dangers of hubris. I guess the Chinese culture had other lessons it wanted to rub in.
Just like John xina , i love how he is being trained by winne the pooh.

Beautiful video. The mythical story is actually the one that I saw from a book I really love looking at, which given to my brother by my mother a long time ago called Sun, Moon and Stars by Mary Hoffman! It has a chapter about the pride of the sun god's son.
This is a great story and the animation makes it so much better and much more tangible.
That was awesome. The story telling and the art was astounding
The way this video was created and sound effects really served as one of the best videos of TedX.

One of my all-time fav greek stories
Awwe, what a sweet tale. Thanks for sharing these videos with us, they absolutely brighten my mornings 😃🌄📖
Beautiful!!! Congratulations for this awesome project!!! ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗😍
Another version of this legend says that phaeton was an excellent charioteer and full of pride claimed that he could even control Helios' chariot but crashed it in earth, and the burnt region formed Sahara region
I'm really enjoying the mythic series :)

Sometimes Ii wonder, why did Helios not join Phaethon in his journey? Probably because the chariot could only hold one guy I think.
Ps Ted-ed's animation just get better every time.
Bro Phaethon could've legit sat on Helios's lap if the chariot was meant for 1 guy 😭😭
Saaaaame
It could hold more than one person. Circe and Pasiphae, two daughters of his, travelled in his chariot one time in order to be delivered to their islands.
Phaeton: I’m gonna build my entire identity around being the son of someone awesome instead of being cool myself
Zeus’s son: career end: lock on.
Beautiful animation and narration
This myth is actually telling the story of how a meteor hit earth and the distant past. It serves as a reminder and has the moral is the pride before the fall. One of my favorite myths.
Phaeton - "The risk I took was calculated, but boy, am I bad at maths."
Who else is getting this in their recommended because of One Piece
