[intormentis]

[Theo793]

No. Just .. No. I'm just gonna stay right here in Denmark and burn some witches on a bonfire k?

[wiggaroo]

I was considering refining my swedish, but ill just go see denmark instead, they seem cooler

[LOTRsuck]

WTF sweden?

[SvdB1992]

ok, that's kinda cute

[GreedAndSelfishness]

Man that looks just plain damn stupid!

[ankoku37]

Only one thing is missing...

FIRE!!!

[Ssliska]

@ankoku37 dont forget the witch

[sasuketiger]

@ankoku37 and don't forget the witch! XD

[beefchicken1]

We swedes must look like idiots!! XD

[Kinyoku]

That looked like fun :D!

[ixorafy]

if Hetalia Sweden would dance that...it would be epic! :3

[XxzeldawolfxX]

meanwhile, in Sweden...

[theswedishdude1]

lol it might look wierd but its really fun :D XD

[MrFiremagnet]

SATW, anybody?

[BraUnY74]

Looks weird... but funny.

[annakristina100]

i think people outside sweden thinks we swedes are strange people..when looking us dancing...?

[Klemperer]

@annakristina100 No! Not at all! We just want to be there too and enjoy Midsommar, it must be hauntingly beautiful :) Some days ago I received a long description of a midsommar and all that belongs to it in a huge letter - and I was thrilled!

[DonBugatti]

Only in Sweden! -haha jk neighbors :D That looks fun! xD lmao

[WhiteLilystar]

Let's NEVER remove this tradition XD Små grodorna små grodorna är lustiga att se... KOACK ACK ACK KOACK ACK ACK ^_^

[OtakuArashi16]

I kept hearing "to wack a duck" xD!!

[SuperPrettyCOLORS]

nice midsummer tradition... but I like the bonfires and witch burnings better

[tomtegirl]

@SuperPrettyCOLORS you meen valborg and midsummer is much better :D

[CalypsoCatnip]

This is friggin' adorable! I'm so jealous!

[Vendigosweden]

Okay just to be clear this is mostly 4 children!!

[OneBigAnimeFan]

... and in norway we light gigantic fires and watch it buuuuurn!!!! and in danmark they do the same just with a witch-doll stuffed with fireworks on the top

[zillertaller]

@OneBigAnimeFan That we do on Valborg in sweden...midsummer is holy for us!

[TheStigDude]

Um, Humon sent me?

[roidroid]

meanwhile, in Sweden

[highamount55]

usually, im very drunk when i do that

[WskerFTW]

all that pole needs is some fire and a witch on top lol Go Denmark

[WskerFTW]

Wat man would do this within his own free will?

[xxWolfofDarknessxx]

@WskerFTW those who live in Sweden, apparently.

[WskerFTW]

@xxWolfofDarknessxx u would have to shoot me first lol

[Strandoz1337]

@WskerFTW only real men do this

[VocaloidKitsu]

why do the hand movements kind of remind me of caramelldansen? D:

[roidroid]

@VocaloidKitsu ..... NOW I CAN'T STOP SEEING IT

[VocaloidKitsu]

@roidroid XD then my work here is done~

[TetsukenZ]

@VocaloidKitsu This is a Win.

[ZombieNira]

@VocaloidKitsu

Well, caremelldansen IS a swedish song...? XD Must be a swede thing. -shrugs and laughts-

[TheRokkis]

I find this disturbing. I rather burn stuff and drink myself unconscious, senseless Finn is always better than aggressive one.

[LexxiuZ]

We sweds have issues..

But seriously, its awsome, everyone should totally start dancing the frog dance all across the world. It beats the robot dance everytime.

[Mitarashiboi]

Thats...the cutest dance.

[roleplay7]

Poor excuse for a maypole? LOL, it's how we do it in my part of the country. Hahaha, how big is yours?

[Namaechan]

What's that poor excuse for a maypole! They've just gift wrapped a flagpole! Now how is it supposed to represent the female and male 'parts'? Who pc'd this!?

[erimol237]

Thumbs up if HUMON sent you here!

[emogothfaerie]

This is why I love Scandinavia and The World...

I have watched this about ten times in a row now, and I still can't get enough of its hilarity...

[Jeamme]

I don't even live in the north and I've seen this dance before ! LOL

[KyiKyo95]

Why don't we have traditions like this in America? You know what, U.S.? Screw it. I'm dancing around a Maypole this year, I don't give a damn how many people stare. And I'll get my Freshman class to do it too (whether they like it or not.)

[roidroid]

@KyiKyo95 welllllll they kinda do have it, but the pole is a flaming cross and ppl wear pillowcases :-/

[sweden360]

man I love midsummar it's the only time on the year you can let out your trapped old childhood ;D

[NickieisaMagicBunny]

This reminds me of Ukraine, sorta.

[th1nkman]

This is just proof that we Americans need to lighten up big time, cuz this would totally be considered faggy in our country XD

[tonecameg]

lol, reminds me of the wedding parties of my childhood.

[STPtje]

Hmm my Swedish girlfriend (probably wisely) never mentioned this event with it XDDD lol. that's what you get when you're Dutch and only celebrate things like Queensday X)

[chibiXchibiXai]

It sort of looks like they're doing the Caramelldansen in the beginning- minus the hip shaking x3

[AifosViruset]

@chibiXchibiXai Well the Caramelldansen-song is in Swedish so I suppose they might have gotten some of the dance from "Små grodorna" that you see here.

[himmelogjord07]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

[BeNotNormal]

Some of those people look like they really don't want to be there...

[Mullahgrrl]

@BeNotNormal That to is traditional.

[nehawe]

*ler*

[Falandorn]

Jag älska Sverige...vad vacker folk! Förlåt för min Svenska jag talar bara liten Svenska. UK är inte bra, jag älskar Sverige.
