with my own Northern British Isles ancestry and also Swedish , I am fascinated by this series. My daughters partner family all come from Alvadnes on Karmoy. . On their farm, they found viking artefacts. proud to have so much Viking heritage.!!

Vdvsdd dc
No beard no Viking
This is great to fall asleep to.
In the Que as I type.
I had NO IDEA that the VIKINGS were SO SUCCESSFUL in setting up settlements all over Europe & even Middle East!! And influencing such a WIDE range of cultures & countries!😮😮...WOW!🤔🤗🥸
And all before the Italian and Spanish started exploring
@maryroberts2099 I think you mean the Portuguese & Spanish...about the only thing Italians explored was spaghetti.🤔😁😂
There was Christopher Columbus-he did a bit of sailing around and exploring
Not to mention North America
I love that my conscience mind is full circling to the random videos that played while I was asleep Ive watched 56 mins on this video somehow and I’m just now researching this shit
As a descendant of Erik Bloodaxe and Witkindsdottor it is good to see a history of my Viking heritage. Thank you for this excellent series. 🥰🥰
That’s not special at all, almost everyone who is white and of northwestern European ancestry is as well . Every generation doubles your ancestors so you have many many 30x great grandparents. Also ,family trees get progressively less trustworthy the father you go back for many reasons like poor research, cheating, lying, etc . You can be 90% Chinese and 10% English and still be related to Erik the bloodaxe 😂: so long ago
Who's here for viking dreams while you sleep?
Meeee 🤟🏼😊
Me too
Just woke up to it. YT often has this in my queue for some reason. One day, I hope to watch it in full 😊
I sleep to long documentaries, every night.
Tonight, this is the one.
I’m Ralph
Great video, just trying to help: at 27:27 - Odin is not Thor's brother, he is his father, the all father of the Aesir. Thank you for the beautiful video.
Have to comment again, incredible documentary! Watching this for the second time, so many "aha!" moments that were kind of hard to connect and understand through history books. Thank you!
That last bog guy that the announcer spoke of died not just by strangling, but a cut throat and somethin g else I forget but it was 3 methods of the ceremonial sacrifice
The gaming pieces! That's fascinating and they're so beautiful. 🎲 Thor and Odin...such an incredible story!
One cannot complain that the video is too short.
Another 15-20 minutes would’ve been perfect
Waaaay too short!! Lol
Terrific video. I really enjoyed this. Thankyou
I’m
So Happy To I Have The Love To Come

As a History Major I found this so very interesting. A subject that is generally a footnote in world or even European history. So much history is still being discovered.
It's a pretty rich subject
@@josephsmith6777as a history major you must know the history never mentioned of Viking History. That would be that the Vikings were repeatedly stomped by the Irish. This narrator talks about how they had large settlements in France and England but he conveniently leaves out how they were repeatedly annihilated by the Irish. I guess it doesn’t fit in in talking about the “fierce Vikings” The Irish taught the Vikings what fierceness really was. The Vikings needed mushrooms to get fierce. The Irish needed no mushrooms.
@michaelconnor5378 I never said I was a history major and in Ireland they kind of mixed with the Irish moving In breading together also fighting each other and others kinda like the Dane land on the uk alot if vikings had Irish with them or ppl mixed plus Celt and Norse pagan is similar back than Ireland didn't mean much there was chieftains and small kings
@@josephsmith6777 look at a Viking era map of Ireland. That explains everything. The Vikings had three trading ports that the Irish allowed them to hold. The Vikings never dared to go beyond there well fortified and walled ports. They were terrified of the Irish. The map will show three dots in Ireland where the trading ports of Dublin, Waterford, and Cork existed. Whereas England and France had large swaths of land controlled by the Vikings. The narrators always conveniently leave this history out. That’s all I’m saying. The maps don’t lie but the historians leave out crucial parts.
@@michaelconnor5378 I don't really understand why it would be important. The documentary is about what the Vikings did and where they went, not what and where they didn't. I don't know a lot about Norse or Irish history for that matter, but I do know that Vikings fighting under the influence is a common myth. They might have been using shrooms for ritualistic purposes as many cultures, but using them for fights simply doesn't make sense. I also recognize that you pointing at the map is an indirect rather than a direct evidence for that. I can't know what happened in the past, but I can very much tell that you are biased.
A woderful tour. Your pride of home and it's history is amazing. Thank you for sharing.. Take care.
@22:13 i love this art and the weaving of the dragon. It requires detailed foresight of where to break, as to appear below the next layer. Kinda reminds me of the 3 norns/fate weavers, maybe they thought like that for their magic 🤷♂️
Haha the second I saw Marit I knew they could handle themselves. Hearing she's a decent skipper didn't phase me, I'd also imagine she's proficient in bow, dagger, probably shortswort & buckler... etc.
Thank You for sharing! I love watching videos of my Ancestor's.
I’m Danish/Norwegian All the men on my Dads side of the family have Harold as their middle name
The danish side is better 🤣. Skål 🍻🇩🇰
In the land of the blind, "One Eye is king"
Very good work
I found it pretty cool (given what I know now, not much of a surprise) that my family used to be Vikings that originated in Holland. It wasn't until a battle with Napoleon that our family name was given. Fascinating stuff.
We are all related in some way. Not so different Afterall. When we look at what was written down by historians, we need to keep in mind also what were the variables and the bias of the author. I have enjoyed this documentary thank you ❤.
No where not
Great to fall asleep to, ty
Indeed! 👍🏻
Very much so 👍👍
That's what I'm doing here, but I do like it as well. ❤️

Thank you 🙏
Getting so wrapped up in Q that you forget the R that heralds the return of the all-father seems to be an old pattern
Have you learned yet what caused the Vikings to travel so much and to kill and pillage the lands they found on their travels? Were they starving? Was there some great societal upheaval that made them seek fortune elsewhere? Or were they just suddenly aware of riches elsewhere and they just wanted it? Or something else?
Something I heard was that Norse inheritance laws divided property equally among sons/offspring. (Not the firstborn gets everything and the rest have a problem.). Even if you start with a HUGE estate and only 3 children per generation, in 3 generations, the farm is now too small to feed your family on. So, lack of land to own was a driving issue, at least initially.
They said in the video that the lands were not very fertile
In the book by Jonathan Clement ‘The Vikings’, he mentions they may have been the outcasts of society, similar to the people who traveled to America, people untethered enough to leave their communities, permanently.
🤷🏼♂️
It was a combination of scarcity and infertile lands
Yes they were looking for good land, hard to grow good crops when it’s so cold so much threw the year.
dude this oldschool runescape type music lol
I love history since I was young
Just found out I'm 40% norwegian, no one in my family has ever mentioned it, I look mostly native american, it was a pleasant suprise
That is a high percentage. I should have mine tested too, would be interesting.
Welcome to being an oppressive colonizer! Lol
I am adopted with my 2 sisters with me. I will always be thankful that my adoptive parents insisted on not splitting us up. All 3, or not.
Weird question: Can anyone tell me what book Juri Peets has open on his desk when he's talking about Viking Age swords at about 1:10:33 ?
I love how CZcams just inserts these two second advertisements right in the middle of people's sentences.
Too many ads I can't even sleep to this crap
Ultimately I cannot help but thoroughly enjoy all the ongoing historical discoveries. However, with that notion of aperture’s, I cannot help having a mindset of, not discouragement, not uninterest, not unenthusiastic, yet an unwavering conclusion there’s an obvious message of cohesive enlightenment of needing a further unexplored perspective of unified hopelessness only because we always conclude in a circular maze of illogical incomprehensibilities …
Get some help
Makes sense to me. Yea. 😂

Appreciate this, Chanel. I love history since I was young.

I thought Thor was Odin's son, not brother.
You're correct.
I’ve been searching the comments to see if someone else caught that. I’m only recently learning more about Viking and Scandinavian history, so I wanted to be certain. Thank you for calling this out!

Very good very informative but not very well edited/compiled I’m afraid. It bounced from different topics only to come back to them and have the experts say the exact same thing in a different way or repeat their clip.
Still, I appreciate the effort and I appreciate the amount of knowledge gained. I knew absolutely nothing of the Vikings before this.
ne cannot complain that the video
We new good Viking restaurants 😅
Buried with great respect,yet their skulls sit in your lab setting....Got it

So at what point does graverobbing become archeology
I read Beowulf when I was 13..
Whats funny is that my one girl friend spotted you in passenger seat of vehicle around my parts ..lol
IT SEEMS EVERY ONE WANTS TO PAINT THE VIKINGS AS nice guys, misunderstood? laugh.
I would rather say Vikinars are over exaggerated in how ruthless and brutal they were. Read Why Leif Erickson and his family was exiled. It because in Norse law they didn't put up with thieves and murders.
The Vikings made Blood Angels in the snow!
@@davidemmet7343 The blood eagle you are refering to, did most likely not occur in the same way you see in the Vikings series. The blood eagle was most likely that after a battle, the eagles and other birds in the area, came to feed on the dead and injured people. You have to keep in mind that christian scholars painted a very brutal and fearsome picture of the vikings, to make them seem very evil and someone people had to fear.
No. Not as nice guys. Just more than brutal blood thirsty barbarians.
They weren't any more or less bad guys than any other people at the time. Everyone killed, raped, murdered, stole, raided, slave traded etc. The Vikings weren't unique in this. Heck, the British killed, murdered, raped and enslaved their own people ffs 😂
And Constantinople was the biggest slave trading hub.
And the people in the Baltic raided Scandinavia.
The Vikings didn't do anything "bad" that everyone else didn't already do.
And the Vikings weren't one people either.
Vikings were diverse people that did tons of different stuff. They raided, but also traded lots of good stuff, connected all of Europe through trade, married into royal families all over Europe and created great change.
By today's standards they weren't nice people, because no people back then were nice people by our standards.
no they were just as cruel and also not cruel as the rest
1:16:30 omg why is he doing that voice lol
The first attack on England in Lindisfarne was Danish and also parts of England was under Dane law for a bit and Eng Land means meadow land if translated from Danish.
You're right England translates to meadow land in danish. But it's actually from old english, "Engla Land", or "Angel Land".
the Danes expanded to the West, and the Swedes to the East, the Norwegians were the most feared of all, and even raiding other Norse...
@@user-McGiver I wouldnt say the Norwegians were the most feared of all the vikings, they were more explorers and traders than raiders like the Danes and Swedes were. Not that they didnt raid and conquer like the others, as they clearly did. Most sources, feared the Danes, more than the Norwegians. But the Danes and Norwegians often did go out together, as the Norwegians even back in that time in large periods were under Danish rule.
@@kristianjohansen5561 no-no-no... you got me wrong!... most feared among the other Norse men [I can't say vikings... it means raiders...] we said the same thing!... the Norwegians were the most feared warriors among the Norsemen, and usually raided other Norsemen, but that was mostly ''political''...about power! I also said that Carlomagnes forced Christianity on the Norse [mostly Swedes, had as result the ''viking'' raiding era...
@@user-McGiver Again I disagree, I wouldn't say the Norwegians were the most feared of the norsemen, it is difficult to say who was the most fearsome, but the Danes were the most prominent out in Western Europe, and the most successful of the Norse in invading and consolidating power.
But yeah I do agree the Norwegians often attacked other Norse settlements and here Hardrada was very well known doing exactly that against the Danes.
Sure.
The narrators voice makes the program a success or a failure.... 😊 An older man firm voice is best....
How did the Vikings get those tiny little boats across the ocean? Oh my goodness! I thought they were bigger and deeper. How did they get the water out? How did they not freeze in storms? How did they not capsize in big waves? I have so many questions now…
They were master boat builders
some of the boats were huge
Some of the went down in the ocean I'm sure
Answer: some One-Eyed Old Man, and his son Maxwell and his silver hammer
How do these videos not have more views? People just don't care about history?
1:37:54 the face- only a mother could love
This was very educatational however so sad
I am Norweigin & Scotts Irish on my mothers side. Just found out that my mothers side was mixed blood with more Norwegian than Irish. So I am more Norweigin & English also than was ever known before due to searching our ancestry thru DNA.
Scandinavia must be a magical enchanting place if Norse Mythology took place there
The wilderness and forests are, nothing like being out there at night with a campfire and just taking it all in. Can't say as much for populated places though.
Sweden has became the rape capital of Europe after they let in a bunch of 'refugees'
@@jolx24Well, populated areas are as the name says, populated. With all that comes with it.
I prefer to think of the Vikings as a bunch of marauding hellions...just kidding. Thanks for bringing nuance and greater understanding to the history and legend of this incredible civilization...of marauding hellions...JUST KIDDING!.
All these really soft spoken museum personnel sitting in front of the remains of people viciously hacked to death by their ancestors. There’s a funny kind of dissonance there. I wonder what happened.
Thor was Odin's son, not his brother.😉
It looks like you're using clips from a Scandinavian documentary (possibly Swedish, but several languages there). Where can I find this?

While watching this, I learned two of my mother’s Polish surnames are actually Viking! So cool!
Norse people came to other countries way before the Viking age. That just shows you how much history was destroyed. Even Emperor Charlemagne spoke about the Norse men plaguing his rule and the Empires before him. And Charlemagne ruled during the dark age where history was lost in vast amounts.
The realization that essentially our entire history could be completely wrong as we know it is a fun one. All it takes is a selfish king
actually, he was responsible for the start of the ''Raiding'' [Viking] Era of the Norse [North] peoples... as a result of his violent push to ''Christianise'' their lands...
@@brycenyarber8837😊 lol I’ll l mom no
Agreed, despite all their surety in themselves, their "education", and their interpretation of all these archeological finds, at the end of the day it's nothing but hypothesis' and theories, which are proven wrong all the time. The problem is they can't stand being wrong so they come up with outlandish theories to connect to their hypothetical situations instead of reinterpreting and adjusting their train of thought upon new evidence, it's a shame really. I'm fact nowadays it seems as if all science goes whichever way the highest bidder wants it to, you don't study, and come up with the answers the controllers want, you don't get funding, nor recognition. Take climate change, yes it's happening, but not from us, and nothing we do will stop it, it happens in cycles, it's literally peer reviewed science, and there are a plethora of climatologists who know it and will say it, they don't get funding or airtime, so if climate change isn't anthropogenic then why are they trying to take all of our rights and freedoms in the name of climate change?
@@stephendudley4377 you know that everytime you even mention''climate change'' you give them a point... right?...
no matter what you say... even talking against them, you give'em more...
Vikings means pirates (Oxford University)
Dont forget murderers rapist and crooks
Like everyone at that time.
650 AD was before the age of raiding the continent. But they raided Estonia for generations before that.
Ok, so the viking boats are real cool! I love them. Thanks for great show.
But the boats are wide open to the elements of nature, the waves and the rain, the snow and the ice, the baking sun and/or freezing temperatures. Not to mention that I don't see much room for supplies storage. Hum
Mostly I wonder, since they are wide open to the weather, how did they keep afloat?
How did the boats keep from sinking from huge waves and rain during storms?
How did the boats keep from freezing up in frigid temperatures?
Even though the boats are way cool, man is not above nature.
There must be more to these viking boats, than what we found to observe.
We rode the rivers of the Eastern trail
Deep in the land of the Rus
Following the wind in our sails
And the rhythm of the oars
No shelter in this hostile land
Constantly on guard
Ready to fight and defend
Our ship 'til the bitter end.
We came under attack
I received a deadly wound
A spear was forced into my back
Still, I fought on...
*_When I am dead_*
*_Lay me in a mound_*
*_Raise a stone for all to see_*
*_Runes carved to my memory!_*
Here I lie on the river bank
A long, long way from home
Life is pouring out of me
Soon I will be gone
I tilt my head to the side
And think of those back home
I see the river rushing by
Like blood runs from my wound
*_When I am dead_*
*_Lay me in a mound_*
*_Raise a stone for all to see_*
*_Runes carved to my memory!_*
The last barbarians🫦
Only the enemies of the Vikings would call them "barbarians" or "berserkers". Do you want to know what a "berserker" is?
My parents and I recently did our ancestry dna. I found out both of them are part Norwegian, and my dad is part Danish and Swedish. My grandfather's family(my mom's father) is Frisian. I never knew any of this. Never heard of the Frisii in my life, I don't know if they go back that far. But I know that they go back to Redbod in that region. My dad's side has an ancestor Sigurd Eysteinsson, his line for sure. Other lines from Gorm "The Old", Harald "Fairhair", Sigurd "Snake in the Eye" and Bjorn "Ironside". Had no idea!! Very cool for me!! I'm more interested in the real history, not the christian version of Viking history.
they reused too many segments too often. this isn't really worth over 3 hours of watch time. 1/ cut oout the dupes 2/ keep related info together instead of spreading it all out hoping that when you get to the repeat segments, viewers will have forgotten they saw them. IOW not very respectful of viewers' time or intelligence.
Informative yes, but I also found it quite repetitive. I think they are trying to be episodic in the presentation, but there is some notable fluff.
Hi brother!!!
Just by what you said in this video, I already appreciate you. Rory and the boys know you and I appreciate you, so that is a double down. Let me make it clear but not disrespectful my friend, brother quit apologize and do what you do apologizing and appreciate watching it man !!! All the best brother and looking forward to seeing your work. Cheers.

Legend or history: judge for yourself.
During the Norse wars, the ''berjast við úlfa''the order or warrior faternity an elite in the service of the highest bidder an order of warriors were a warrior elite, similar to the berserkir, but more refined and religious, followers of the old Norse gods and a new creed imported the Móðir- Jörð, these Vikings could be the image we have of the Vikings helmet with horns, as some used them as a symbol of the male-goat, an allusion to his manhood.
When times of peace came, the rulers wanted to dissolve them, as they were Christian kings, they hated Christianity, they plundered and killed them, as they had no resources, they dedicated themselves to banditry, and the Scandinavian kings hunted them down and cornered them, Seeing their extinction, they fled to Iceland with 26 ships. In Iceland they were not allowed to disembark, so they went west in search of a new land and discovered a land they called TULAND, today East Greenland. As newcomers they were forced by the dotrine of Móðir-Jörð to be polite to the natives and learned from the INUIT natives, and became experts in -hundasleða-les gustava. But they kept bothering the Scandinavians, plundering their ships and coasts for firewood, food, silver and women, and the Scandinavian kings were fed up with them and searched hard for them and finally found them in Tuland (East-Greenland), killing them.After 70 years of living on those coasts they died out, they gave orders to ban the sagas ''tales'' about the warriors of Tuland under penalty of death.

considering average age back then was 30-40 ..... doubt they were living to 70 hahaha....so.... fake...
@@GhostFaceisHighAs far as I know, that was due to high death rates among children and warriors, for that matter. So it's possible that people who survived childhood and then battles, lived long. But everything else about the OC comment sounds like BS.
First, the horn hat is a well known myth coming from a choice of costume design from Wagner's Valkyrie opera play. Second, Vikings weren't friendly to the inuits, they simply lost against them, which is why they only remained at a particular area of Greenland. (Of course, they did intermarry later and I assume a level of culture exchange followed.) If there is this amount of misinformation in a single comment, it's impossible do take everything else seriously.
Just like the Romans the Vikings were Pagans. They were into the Pachamama stuff which is fine. To each their own. I think "peaceful" modern religion is great. Our morals and many countries were founded on Christianity. Without a strong family etc. you end up with easy to indoctrinate kids who's lives are being destroyed by evil predator educators..
@@GhostFaceisHighdon’t be so convinced sir. Open your mind. It was not uncommon for people to live into their 60s and 70s in Greek history 300-400BC. Plato for example lived to be like 79, Aristotle 62, and Socrates 71. Soo… it’s not so far fetched.
Way too many commercials based on the value of the content.
What makes this slaughter and invasion any different than that of the Nazis? Many people focus on the "good things" that Hitler achieved too. Bear in mind it was financed mainly on the fact that so many were murdered and their wealth seized. The sharing of trade routes and culture doesn't need to be achieved that way. People also admire Mayan culture, where beating hearts were cut out of living victims. The list goes on....
the past is cruel, not just Mayan or Vikings but all over the world, how do you think Empires were created ? do you think the ancient Egyptians didn't kill and conquered ?, the Persians, Phoenicians,Romans and all the rest they were all violent, they all took slaves

Did we ever figure out why members of our species - mankind - (would) engage in war AT ALL??
Very simple. For the same reason animals fight. Lack (or perceived lack of) resources. It's easy to preach peace as a modern Christian or hippie, when you have what you need, but if it't about your family's survival or somebody else's, it's not that easy anymore...
And as societies develop in complexity, so do wars. They might not be directly about food or living space anymore, but about maintenance of power - either for the group, or a minority within the group. If your group doesn't demonstrate power, then another group, that needs your resources or also wants to demonstrate power, might see it as a weakness and attack your group. If you are a part of a group's political elite, and you don't demonstrate power (possibly within the group, but also) against other groups, then the non-elites might see that as a weakness and attempt to remove your elite group.
War happens for 3 reasons:
1. Fear
2. Pride
3. Self-interest
Like all animals, especially predatory ones, for resources, territory, greed, hate, power, vengeance etc etc. Crows have been found waging war against cats and humans. Lol
Humans just have a bigger brain to use to justify our wars.
@@PohjanKarhu Yes, but we can THINK, or at least one would have thought so - and be cause of that we should be able to appreciate how undesirable the outcome, the consequences of our wars are (nowadays with our latest types of weapons that are simply far too powerful, more than ever in any material way except for the suffering that hostilities and usage of violence have always brought about, another thing that is often worse than whatever it was that before the fighting started was thought of as possible wins that could be had)

So did anyone else catch the Swastika on the Tattoo Artist's arm? 😂
@gwoody4003 - That symbol has a long history of decorative art in Europe and in North America among Natives. It was the Nazis that chose it as their symbol and gave it such a horrifying reputation. When we see it used nowadays, we cannot help but think of the Nazis. It does give one pause. >_
@@MossyMozart yeah I know. You still see it in a lot of Amish art too. I forget what they call those circles they make. And it matters which way its turning too. A backward swastika isn't a swastika at all. And its used as a broken cross in a few other cultures as well... but its straight up and down, not at an angle.
But its like Hitler's moustache... despite being something that was done before and isn't alwats directly associated... people still avoid it because of the stigma attached to it and the guarenteed "so... bold choice" discussions it will certainly draw from others. 🤣
There are a lot of Nazi and Nazi-adjacents in Scandinavian and Eastern European countries.... Ukraine for example, pretty hard to find a photo of their "freedom fighters" that dont have a swastika or SS symbol tattooed on them.
They did not capture Constantinople!!!
why the heque did blood-thirsty Vikings need body 'armour' against helpless,hapless dirt farmers?🤔
