@@sireregor6633 For the Sawney’s, roasting had a different sense.
Cool bit that wasn't mentioned: Apparently one of Sawney Beans daughters escaped to the nearby town and lived a fairly normal life with her children- when the Bean clan were being dragged through town her father recognised her and called out to her, leading to her eventual lynching, however, nobody knows what happened to her kids as she managed to get them out of town first.
Is the daughter's name happens to be Gilly?
@@greygoose4945 couldn't tell you if it was for all the money in the world bud. I really should know more about my own country's history but meh.
@@greygoose4945 according to legend her name was Elspeth.
Europeans love that stuff you'll are some workout cannibals.
Wasn't there also a fairy tree that grew to be gnarly so the town already thought she was a witch?
Humans are friends, not food Sawney Bean: I don’t think so

Aw! I wish this story was adapted into an 80s anime. Wholesome Mr. bean & mrs. Bean

Your videos are excellent 💯👏
The Sawney Bean clan story needs to become a movie.
It would be worst than the exorcist...
I mean, it was the inspiration for Hills Have Eyes (1977) (They even say it at the end of the video, in case you weren't paying attention). It also seems a lot like those terrible Wrong Turn movies.
Watch wrong turn
Wrong Turn 1 through 4
Umm..... Attack on titan has that XD
The sad part is that innocent ppl were being accused and executed for the murders🤦🏿♂️
All Europeans like that we know ugh.

"You're Sawney,and You're Bean" Hange - from Attack on Titan
I never realized-
Ah i remember that episode 😂
thats exactly what i thought
It's in fact, from this event. Isayama know some stuff. He's not "non-academic" he maybe dont have bachelor title or university title thing. but he's not "non academic" like what he said in that BBC interview
I was looking for this comment n I found u😂
Fun fact: The two titans Hange (Attack on Titan) named after capturing them were inspired by this guy: Sawney Bean!
Yep, welcome to infographics
Di I asked?
@@Longey9000 No but with 11k viewers at the time of writing at least 2 have to be AoT fans so nobody cares if you asked.
@@Longey9000 You must be the best at ruining people's lives. I know cause I'm like that too.
༆Zítrøn Midørí21༆ uhhh no you aren’t you have some cringe anime pfp you are most likely 12-14 the best thing you can do is act edgy online, keep it up bud
Is this where Attack on Titan got “Sawney” and “bean”?
Yup!
😂
Yes
And the story that Hange told, its this
Actually, yes. That’s how they named them even hange mentioned it.
-if you’re eating put down the fork. Hannibal Lecter: No no, please carry on.
Finally, someone does a story about Sawney Bean! I read that one time, a 5 year old child of the Bean clan bit Sawney (who was his grandfather and who knows what else) when Sawney stepped on the child. This enraged Sawney so much that he picked up the child and bashed his head against some rocks and killed him. When the Bean clan was captured, the youngest child who was around 4 or so was spared...for a bit. She was raised among the villagers until her 16 birthday whereupon she was put to death so she wouldn't be a threat to towns people.
You forgot about how one of his daughters ran away to the near village to start a new family(since she didn’t like the family work) and when her family were caught and going to get executed she her dad saw her and called out saying *”Hi, daughter”* which led too her getting hanged on her tree which is now regarded as a taboo tree or something which is still here till this day.
RIP for the daughter
:(
She just wanted a good life

Me: watching video about cannibalism Also Me: get an ad for McDonalds.... Are you trying to tell me something?
I just figured this out
That's mad. I'm scottish and lived in Scotland my whole life and I have never heard of this before, interesting.
Although the Bean family probably didn't exist you'd better looking at other sources to find out more about this legend, as there's a few mistakes in this video.
🏴
There's a story about it in the Edinburgh dungeons
Same, born and bred in Scotland, never heard of this. I don't think it's true tbh.
The guy himself said it's probably not true
King James was lucky he had an elite cannibal-hunting squad handy...
I gotta get me one of those.

It’s not real
Sawney Bean! In Attack on Titan, Hange has two test subject Titans that she runs experiments on. She names them Sawney and Bean. If you watch Attack on Titan then you know that Titans eat people. So that's where Isayama got the names from, the real life Sawney Bean.
Trueeee!!!
I think so
I'm waiting for the next season 😭😭😭
I can't wait for the last season but I know I'll cry lol.
@joseph I'm rreading the manga. It will blow your mind. What's happening in the manga right now has cemented this as one of the greatest works of fiction I've ever seen.
Sawney be following the "reduce, re-use, recycle"
I am from South West Scotland and lived near this cave. The legend is true.
Interesting
I think it is true aswell
Imagine they're eating a clown " does this taste funny to you?"
Hahaha
I'm Scottish, I knew immediately that this would be Sawney Bean. I remember in Edinburgh Dungeons I was TERRIFIED of it. But I'm glad it is folklore although I HAVE seen some strange things on the Galloway Coast before...
Like what exactly?
American with Scottish roots here, what kind of weird stuff??
What
@@sarmeddangerous6462 but I'm not American I'm just Scottish
Joseph Mannion I know, I was just saying that I am American but with Scottish blood. And most of us are curious as to what other strange things you’ve seen in the Galloway Coast
Never eat human flesh, but wanna know what you can eat? Cinnamon Toast Crunch! Go buy a box at your local store today! Edit: For the Cinnamon Toast family, I apologize for my mistake.
How about toast butter ( marg ) brown sugar cinnamon ( toast in oven sweet treat when your broke )😀
mary Thomson did we fricking ask?

Half Melon yea we did
The Sawney Bean Clan needs to have its own movie.
Have been down the cave many times now, if it doe go back miles like the myths portrays, it’s inaccessible now because of sediment build up. What’s interesting though is we took a metal detector to it and found a coin from the 1500’s with King James on it - the king who supposedly ordered the hunt for the Sawney clan - so it’s some personal proof that the legend could be true!
Did you get a lot for the coin?
Sawney family: *eats wife* Husband: you messed the wrong guy fool
🤣
Husband: only I was supposed to eat her
If the legend of the Sawney Family is true, The husband who survived his beloved wife is quite the legend!
The first couple minutes of this video are just really fast transitions. Imagine spending all that time animating a scene, and then it makes it into .8 seconds of the final video...
Congrats on 1k subs, your channel is hella underrated

Do you just wait for the Inforgraphics show to post?
@@Ty-vj4wg I have notifications on and am a student without a job over the summer, so I can just watch the videos right when I get the notification/right when they come out. With quarantine there isn't much else to do
This would make an incredible "The Hills Have Eyes"-esque movie.
Im sure those films were based on it
Ummm, they said that the novel is based on that legend.

Terrorises *a village* in Scotland, in *Europe.* 😎
No clickbait here....
village inside europe
I wonder if this family would ever get into a type of survival situation where they're stuck in the mountains and have to cannibalize each other to live.
So they not only where cannibles they “ate” their siblings too 😂
it's free real state,bro😏😐
🤭🙄😬
Hannibal Lecter belongs in their bloodline, you can't tell me otherwise.
I could, but I won’t, and shouldn’t
Shawn’s been also doesn’t exist. So perfect pairing I guess.
Isn’t there are movie called silence of the lambs
also Mr. Bean
Hey,,homie Hannibal lecter's not real,,you're got 2 be talking about Ed Gaines. Dude was nothing nice,,thinkin Hannibal was modeled after him.......another bit of useless knowledge.
Where has quarantine brung me today? Cannibals!
I've been on so many adventures during quarantine

The version I had heard was that they generally robbed travellers, but after they sold a few pieces of jewelry that people recognized, they had to stay hidden---they couldn't sell their loot or buy food because they'd get arrested, so they had to start eating their victims. . So the story goes, when they were caught, the government decided that particular punishment for a reason: where the men had their limbs chopped off before they were beheaded and the women forced to watch, and then the women were burned at the stake.... ...in short, their sentence was to be butchered and cooked.
the horror director Wes Craven has stated that the sawneybean clan was the inspiration for the mutated family from his film The Hills Have Eyes, he learned about the family while reading a book on 18th century criminals.
Hangë's story is all coming together now Now I see why all those Garrison Troops were disturbed I didn't think it was true, until now
oh
Dang
Sawny and Bean, it makes sense now! I had an epiphany when he said those names
I was just about to write a comment about hange and the titans
Ye I was thinking this while I watched this
"America has mothman" Texans: *start revving chainsaw*
Lol
i’m a texan but lol

Who tf is Sawyer
I love that the Inforgraphics team are able to get straight to the point whilst still delivering an enthralling backstory.
Love how they tell u stop eating and watch instead of continue eating and watch later
“Sawney” “Bean” My mind: *They are the food and we are the hunters!*
Cannibal clan exist. Gordon Ramsay: "raw!!!!!"
Me*:reads thumb nail* Also me:here we go again
"Nothing in the past can be remembered corectly; and events will be misplaced"
I always watch the infographics show while eating! Love it
They stalk, They attacc, But most importantly They snacc
It’s like the Hills Have Eyes and / or Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Hills Have Eyes is based on this story
The Texas hills have chainsaws
This is what it’s based ofc
It was definitely a king called james. Moving on 🤣
love the vids great work hope everyone has an amazing day
Ayrshire is in South West Scotland, so it's already on the mainland. Although the story of the Bean clan isn't likely to be true they wouldn't have hunted in the Scottish Highlands, which are a fair distance away (Ballantrae to Fort William is approximately 170 miles) and would likely have operated in Ayrshire, Dumfriesshire, Inverclyde and the Borders. Also, the image of William Wallace in blue face paint was dreamt up by Mel Gibson. The blue face paint, Woad or Isatis tinctoria, was worn by the Picts, (as well as many Celtic tribes) who died out in the 5th century, while William Wallace lived in the 13th and very early 14th century.
This was also explained by Hangë Zoe in Attack on Titan during the naming ceremony of the captured titans.
YEP I COMMENTED THAT TOO
your bringing out the part of me that loves history and folklore i love your channel so much❤️
Great post
I love how all the animated cannibal people look so happy lol
I hope you pay your editors a lot with how many videos you guys push out a day. Outstanding work from everyone
Anyone ever wonder how there are hundreds of comments before someone could have possibly watched half the video?
Because people want attention Like me I want your attention I want you to like my comment
True true
Congrats on 1k subs, your channel is hella underrated
Well there is 8.4 mill subscribers.
Here is roughly the comment section the first few hours: FIRST When you are so early.... I have never clicked so fast.... No one joke
considering there's hannibal series, netflix should make a movie out of this or maybe tv series!
There's a film based on them, but it's set in the present time
Your videos are so interesting.
You have got to love Infographic Show for the content they bring,those never heard of; no wonder it is one of my favorite channel.👍👍 who would have expected this from any other channel out there. They really do their homework
Swany bean clan : we are the best serial killers ever Muffres and Skinner brothers in rdr2 : hold my beer
Watching these make me appreciate living in the 21st Century ALOT.
I love how these psychopaths were illustrated in all smiles like what they were doing was totally fine... lol
this reminds me of the murfree brood cave in red dead 2
I was thinking the same exact thing. Lol maybe their descendants immigrated to America.
Didn’t this inspire the Hills Have Eyes films?...
Yes
Yeah that’s what I heard
Even if it did. This feels nothing like the Hills Have Eyes films. It's almost a romantic existence of hunting, having a large family, and living off grid.
so basically no one had odm gear
I really enjoyed this vid
*Sawney Bean* Me and the bois: *Get your ODM out*
So its like 'The Hills Have Eyes'
Well yes, I watched a video about horror movies based on real life and according to that video "the hills have eyes" is inspired by this legend Also if you want to see that video it's made by a channel called "most amazing top 10"
Pretty much
Its biased off it so yeah
I always find it funny when Americans refer to Europe like it's one country in titles Great vid btw
Oh! I remember this story. Heard about them years back.
Yea but when are we getting an infographics show narrator face reveal
Well there is a video where he makes a character looking like him and it has a black beard and black hair but idk if that’s actually what he looks like
We need our favourite lab rat reveal too
Sawney Bean: Hold my limbs!
I read about this story multiple times from multiple sources. imo, compared to other myths and urban legends, this one is way too detailed to not at least be partially true. And its not like they're the only mass murderers or the first.
I have the book but I like the way you bring it into action with your videos
