Norse Mythology

An atmospheric tribute to the spirit of the North Men (popularly known as the 'vikings'). It is not meant to be historically accurate, but rather to display thier world as they saw it. btw- the golden helmet was crafted by my own hands.
All the images were either taken/created by me, or found on GoogleImages. All rights go to thier respective parties- no infringment intended.

Audio: "Valhalla" by Bathory

ATTENTION NITPICKERS: I am aware that the average Scandinavian of that time stood 5'7". But they were easily taller than all other European groups. I intentionally changed to height so our modern audience would understand how these men appeared to their enemies. So please, refrain from correcting this..

Haaka Paale Poiyan Poika!
Enjoy!

Awesome video. Love all the Norse mythology and the music kicks it too. You might want to check out my RuneWarriors video. It is more comic than yours but its purpose is to create awareness for a trilogy of Viking comedy-adventure books I wrote, published by HarperCollins. Check it out.

Thank you, and I will do so.

[SickOmega]

one of the better tributes i've seen, good call with Bathory as well

[metallifreak77]

Actually, new finds show that pre-Christian Scandinavia had many men around the 5'11 area, as quite possibly the average. Let alone the excavation of burial ships that would contain warrior kings well over 6 feet tall dating from the early days of the Viking Era...

[jaskamakkara]

They were not 6'6 ft tall on average, more like 5'7.

@mohamedsucksdick dude, even the monks talked about them being giants, and the french, and so on. They were feared for their strength, tenacity, fearlessness, height, etc...they were looked at like they were demons, an unstoppable force, and honestly they were unstoppable...i mean come on, they were obviously smarter than other euopeans, which is why they enslaved and conquered, and stole all their moneys. If you're white, you're descended from them.

Proud heathen! keeping the tradition and folklore of my ancestors strong and tru!
