Before the creation of humanity, the Greek gods won a great battle against a race of giants called the Titans. Most Titans were destroyed or driven to the eternal hell of Tartarus. But the Titan Prometheus, whose name means foresight, persuaded his brother Epimetheus to fight with him on the side of the Gods. Iseult Gillespie shares the myth of Prometheus.

Moral: always help others even if it means a eternal punishment
Why did Prometheus trick Zeus with the two plates of meat though? What did he want to achieve through it/ purpose?
Me to my sims
Brethren
Prometheus could forsee the punishment and knowing that he still choosed to help humans
Greek gods are real pain wow they are humans with too much privileges that’s all… good things these idiots don’t exist.
if humans had to worship a god it should be this one
Prometheus seems like the best mix between an older brother and a dad.
thanks to you for giving us these womderful videos…
A god we all need and to be respected
Prometheus is more of a god than all of them combined he is the actual god not a mad scientist a hero
The fact Promethus suffered for the good of human beings kind of reminds me of the cruxifixion of Jesus.

Huh in the myth I read he stole the fire from Hestia’s hearth. The difference doesn’t really matter but it’s just interesting.
I love how the “modern Prometheus” is not modern anymore
3:15 can anyone name the music I really need it
How could you leave out the fact that Hercules/Heracles saved him?
Why does he look like Handsome Squidward?
