The reason why he was screaming that he can’t be killed is because he knows that the Christian army(saxons) are already terrified of him, due to the horrors they heard about him. When they hear the name “Ivar the boneless” they literally think that he’s the devil himself, which is why none of them dared to shoot him with arrows in this scene, cause they were worried what would follow after
They were terrified of him, because he was screaming at them in old English, instead of Norse. This caught them off guard, on top of the brutality of his battles and conquests that they would have know about. They realized he was underestimated...
he is Ivar, son of Ragnar. before this his father, Ragnar Lothbrook terrorised the lands he's currently taking over. The people were just in awe of him
The chariot was custom made by Floki so that he could participate is the fighting, he’s not actually standing he’s sitting down. 2:38 Ivar was just high on that berserker rage and he wanted the smoke 🤷🏽♂️. Main reason the Saxons didn’t shoot him dead was because of how friggin superstitious a lot of them were back then. Ivar was speaking a language none of them could understand while smiling with blood soaked practically everywhere on his face including his his while seated in the mud. As far as they were concerned, this wasn’t some madman that was as as good as dead, this was a demon that dared any of them to cross him less they risk there eternal souls being devoured by him.
Read up history. Ivar really had his named written in the books. This scene is the most manliest one aside the 300 when Leonidas said" Spartans tonight we dine in hell"

The one person with the balls to shoot him got a war pick chucked at him

That's modern Danish, the actor's native tongue. Ivar The Boneless was actually Swedish, but they spoke Eastern Norse in today's Sweden and Denmark.

These are Vikings. Ivar the boneless was know to be the most cruel and violent of all Vikings. He was know to go into a berserk fury. Kinda trans.
