The History of Helm's Deep | Tolkien Explained

the riders of Rohan is like the historical Winged Hussares of the kingdom of Lithuania-Polen.

Súthburg is easely understood in, I'll guess, both Swedish and German as Southern Castle.

for example Transylvania is called Siebenburg in German meaning Seven Castles.

my goddauther got the Lego Millenium Falcon. it was €500 if I remember correct.
Her mother fainted when she found out 😂

Painting my deck started listening to this much more fun great storytelling..
Also thank you for the exploration of the stories and characters
the things I didn't know about Tolkien's masterpiece..

I seriously wanted to know what would happen in 4th age and 5th age and 6th age :( Petition to resurrect JRR TOLKIEN and grant him Immortality and best of health!

This land belongs to the Nords!

It’s a shame you are selling out to Amazon wokeness.

Interesting fact: Balkan peninsula before coming of Turks was named Helm peninsula.

Such a cool action scene with the rain the backstory only makes this place even cooler .

Legos?… smh

“LEGO is always an adjective. So LEGO bricks, LEGO elements, LEGO sets, etc. Never, ever "legos."” -The Lego Group

Only thing I can hear is Danny DeVito saying "Horns"

I like how gimli fell in love with the glittering caves during a battle while retreating

you are a good dad :)

It is said that after the horn in the hornburg was sounded before the charge of king Theodin. It's sound echoed throughout the valley as if something or someone was still blowing on it. Many believed it was the wraith of Helm Hammerhand blowing his own ghostly horn.

One of the worst places fortresses in fantasy history 😂

What about the horses!? Could you do a video of shadow fax, or somebody show me the link to the video if he had already made it!

The lack of proper crenellations on the wall is bizarre.

But how, how can fire undo stone, well get a little closer with that candle and you will find out worm

I love helm’s deep. I was gifted the lego set for Christmas one year and it was the coolest set ever.

I like your hat sir, is it a collab?

Absolutely, I subbed your son's channel and I look forward to seeing more.

Helms Deep was always a favorite to watch but I love the way Tolkien wrote it and would have loved to seen that. Especially with Eomer being one of my favorite characters in the movie seeing him fight there would have been awesome.

Glittering caves and prisoners release , so important and don’t go near those orc burial hills ❤

What’s the music at the beginning

Who are the hurons and erkenland?

Do video about what if Saruman took the ring.

Nerd of the universe!

I'm gonna subscribe to Nerd of the Bricks just so you have to buy that hella expensive Lego set way earlier than you thought ;-D
Seriously though, looking forward to even more content - you are super entertaining and informative.

In case you haven't been told, Nerd Of The Ring, THANK YOU!! Thank you for pronouncing CORRECTLY the names of places and people of Tolkien's world.

Helm was a Mike Tyson of his time

Ahhh Helms Deep, where the greatest Wilhelm scream was scrum.

Helm's deep one of the best fortresses and one of the best defensive forts of Rohan. But it has one weak point a weak spot when isengard forces attacked and the blast was happened. We always appreciate your hard work and dedication towards these videos.

Did your son lose interest in nerd of the bricks

This was a super helpful video for understanding Helms Deep!

They need to rerelease lotr legos

Fun Fact: Helm's Deep and the Glittering Caves are inspired by Cheddar Gorge and the Cheddar cave system in Somerset, England.

Is there a law in Rohan to own a horse? Much like the medieval English law that every abled body had to own a long bow and practice. How is the rohirum so big?

so The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim Trailer just came out

@Nerdoftherings thanks for making these! it's very peaceful and entertaining as well as informative. You do Tolkien proud 👏 🎉

I know this is one of your older posts, so I hope you see this. I’ll try to send this on another one of your videos. But does anybody have any sort of interior map of Helms deep from the movies? I’m trying to re-create a movie replica in Minecraft I want to be as accurate as possible.

I will say 'Helm' is a very confusing word to use as a name

I wish we could see the scene of the horn of Helm Hammerhand sounding in the keep before the exodus of Aragorn and Theoden. Great video and informative.

Threatening a king in his halls to forcibly marry his daughter sounds like a baaaaaad plan lol.

To my knowledge Helm's Deep is the valley/gorge and the fortress is called The Hornburg. What is your sources to claim that the defensive system is called Helm's Deep as well?
