And all this by age 32. If you are forever immortalized in history as Alexander the Great, then you must have done something pretty good. But although Alexander the Great achieved some incredible feats, he was also known as foolhardy, arrogant and prone to fits of rage.

A very great narrative & a heavily underrated video & information that everyone needs to see & hear!
No wonder why Alexander is called The accursed in the east.
There were some points that you also missed about his terribleness:
Alexander was also a zealot pagan who quite literally killed every single religious figure that he found on his path from priests to even ordinary believers (and not just monotheists such as the zoroastrians, he even killed other pagans such as the Babylonians & Assyrians just because their gods were not Zeus & hades or Posidon)
Not just his best friend in a drunked mood, Alexander killed anyone of his men who ever disagreed with him! Anyone! And 99% of the times he was sober when he killed them; his best friend however, could survive untill Alexander got drunk.
There are many stories about his death, but most actually believe that he was poisoned by his own generals! truly shows how great of a figure his own men saw him to be, let alone others

Well how hard you go against Alexander the Great for spreading death and Hellenism, you must not be a fan of all the other great leaders of history who did the same
Plus Alexander also wanted to conquer Arabia before his untimely death and if his men allowed him to conquer all of India he would have then came in contract with the Chinese

Everyone from Alexander to Charlemagne was one kind of butcher or another. Most of history's greats were nothing short of monsters when you think of them in terms of human lives destroyed in their wake.

You seem to go in a little hard on Alexander. Name one famous person of war who wasn't an alcoholic back then. Being the largest empire in the world has to take its toll.

Answer how many people in the history have his accomplishments and youll know if he is great or not.
PS. There are no perfect men and war is always violent

I find it hard to believe some drunk 25-year-old could conquer half the known world. I think much of his life were: tall tales and exaggerations.

Wowso the man liked to drink and made some gasp human mistakes, and this takes away from his legacy how?
