Added: 2026-05-20

[00:00:00]Did you know that in Greek mythology, a woman killed her own children just to get revenge on her cheating husband? Her name was Medea, and she was a powerful sorceress who fell madly in love with the hero Jason.

[00:00:11]>> [music] >> When Jason came searching for the golden fleece, Medea used her magic to help him complete impossible tasks. She gave him potions to survive fire-breathing bulls and spells to [music] defeat an army of skeleton warriors. They got married and had two children together. Jason had everything he wanted, but then he decided to dump Medea for a princess.

[00:00:28][music] Why? Political power. He wanted to climb the social ladder. Big mistake. Medea didn't just [music] get mad, she got creative. First, she sent the new bride a beautiful dress as a wedding gift, but the dress was cursed. When the princess put it on, it burst into flames and burned her alive. But Medea wasn't done.

[00:00:48]To hurt Jason in the worst way possible, she murdered their own children with her bare hands. Then she escaped in a chariot pulled by dragons, leaving Jason with nothing. Never betray a woman with magical powers.
