[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks) I don't care at all. The plague, or even better, the English sweat.

[0:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=2) You know, there was this disease. It was more terrible than the plague, worse than the bla- black death.

[0:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=6) The English sweat—that's what it's called.

[0:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=8) For some reason, only people in England got it.

[0:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=10) They themselves thought it was God's punishment on the English for being English and behaving like the English.

[0:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=16) His entire family died from it, among others— Thomas More's, the great utopian and philosopher.

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=22) It was a disease where a person would suddenly wake up, and suddenly break into a sweat, and for several hours, they'd just sweat profusely.

[0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=29) Then they'd feel dizzy, and their head would hurt, and they'd start having hallu— hallucinations.

[0:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=33) Then they'd fall asleep and never wake up again.

[0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=35) A person would die in three to twenty hours, almost inevitably.

[0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=41) And then that monstrous era of Henry VIII came to an end, of Bluebeard and Bloody Mary.

[0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=47) They lived around the same time as Ivan the Terrible.

[0:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=49) Bloody Mary and Elizabeth I, for sure, — he did court her, as we know.

[0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=53) And they called our Ivan Ivan the Terrible, Ivan the Terrible, terrible.

[0:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=58) And what did they do themselves? Both Henry VIII and Bloody Mary, and Elizabeth, how they lit the fires for those they considered And Thomas More, how many heretics he personally burned, he burned them and attended their executions.

[1:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=70) That somehow doesn't count. As soon as they were gone, their English sweat ended.

[1:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=75) And even today, medicine still doesn't— this is the only disease that medicine doesn't know at all what it was.

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=79) There's no way to explain it except as God's punishment.

[1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=81) What on earth was that? I think this will start again in one form or another.

[1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=87) They're apparently shutting off refrigerators on a massive scale right now, suddenly turning off refrigerators with donated blood inside, trying to heat that blood to a hundred degrees, so it'll boil.

[1:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=98) They're making mass bomb threats against planes right now, and threats are coming in from somewhere about trains.

[1:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=104) A Pole opened fire in Kraków. It was a Pole who opened fire, right?

[1:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=109) He killed a lot of people, and many… How many have died by now?

[1:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=111) Six or seven, and another six or seven are in critical condition.

[1:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=116) Well, they found three more people he'd killed, who were members of his family, I mean—he had more at home, right?

[2:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=122) And tell me, please, are Russians doing this?

[2:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=124) Russians aren't doing this. Russians don't do things like that.

[2:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/CPWvvjKrDVfS/en/english-sweating-sickness-tudor-violence-and-modern-attacks?t=128) Russians fight honorably and first try to use a scalpel, very carefully, and then they're forced to use clubs and axe handles, and all those weapons you talk about, that exist today and that will exist tomorrow.
