ragnar allegedly divorcing lagertha because he was annoyed is the most ragnar thing ever
And still completely false according to historical evidence and some myths.
It makes no sense. If he was annoyed he wouldn't have married her.
@@monicac8376 well maybe he married her out of spite just so he could divorce her as revenge for nearly killing him with her bear.
@@zumis1011 I just don't see how anyone would do that. Have you ever known someone that married just to get revenge? I've seen people reading cheating texts instead of vows to embarrass their partners in front of everyone they know, but even then they never actually marry...
Dude just wakes up one day
"You know what I've never understand? You setting that huge ass bear on me..."
how the little piggies will grunt when they hear how the old boar suffered.
@Otto Boy i got tears in my eyes in that scene. :,(
Please no😭
Oh fuck🤬🥺😭
@@zaspect1362 its just a show bro haha chill
I'm at 4×3 what does this thing mean exactly ? Pls answer me
Floki IS NOT a made up character. He's real and full name was Hrafna-Flóki Vilgerðarson. He is known as the first Norseman who deliberately set sail to the island we know as Iceland today. That being said, Floki was the third Viking explorer to sail there and the one before him, Garðar Svavarsson also knew where he was headed.
Floki Vilgerdarson settled in Iceland with his family, wife and daughters !
It said that one of his daughter perished, possibly at sea .
Because of the harsh winter conditions,
Floki came back to Norway after one year.
However, he must have returned later,
since he died in Iceland !
The Icelandic Sagas mentioned that ''Iceland'' was ''discovered '' by the Irish ( monks ? )
and Papar, before Svavarsson !
Difficult to know if these events, pre-Svavarsson are true !
When they arrived in Iceland there were Irish monk living there. Iceland, and the Americas, offered subsistence living, whereas a warrior going to England or the Middle East could potentially become wealthy.
It’s 2020 and I still can’t get over Ragnar’s death! Poor soul :(
You are not alone
I smiled, not because he died, but because i knew the story and i knew what was coming for England.
Łukasz Denisiuk not getting over Ragnar’s death still makes more sense than everyone crying about Kobe.
I mean... Yea but if you think of the countless people he's killed you can see how silly it is to feel bad for him. Not only did he kill men and women in combat. But also killed hundreds and hundreds of innocent people on his raids so... Yea.
i'm watching the vikings right now and i only watched a few days ago bis death. MAN I TELL YOU, I FUCKING CRIED.
Vikings without Ragnar is like Family guy without Peter
I know, right!!!!
Well ther is ivar
Well, in the first 4 seasons it was pretty much like peter and Louis
@@avatt6229 but ivar would be seen as stewie and i don't think that's a good combination
Disagree hard
In my opinion, each of Ragnar's sons were made to embody one major aspect of his personality. Ivar is Ragnar's wit, which always came with him being ruthless as it was the part of him that made him a great conquerer. Sigurd was the embodiment of his sympathy, a trait that made Ragnar quite bad at conquering, but a great father, lover, and family member (this could be why Sigurd and Ivar never got along, since Ragnar's wit and desire for conquering interfered with his sense of sympathy all the time). Ubbe is the embodiment of his sense of justice, which is what made Ragnar a great ruler. Hvitserk is the embodiment of his pursuit of the truth. More specifically, Ragnar's struggle with his religion and moral code. And finally, Bjorn is the embodiment of his bravery, which is what made Ragnar a great fighter. Hope you guys like this interpretation. And please give it a thumbs up if you do. Been thinking about it for some time now.
Great interpretation
But you do realise ivar, sigurd and bjorn were real right? Not just characters
@@mickyg67 They were apart of the saga! I don't understand how that is relevant to my comment?
I couldnt describe his sons better myself
Bjorn is the son of Rollo but he grew up with Ragnar so he learnt alot of things from Ragnar but he had nothing Naturally from Ragnar like the other sons.
Who else wanted him to say Frankia instead of France??
Frankia is the correct
Atilus [Атила] actually it's "Francie" to be exact (the French term)
Francia you mean
Tribe of Joseph will lead the other tribes of Israel. I'm the tribe of Asher. Fighting for the the Lion of Judah the king of Kings Lord of Lord's Jesus Christ. The Redeemer of souls.
The Frankenreich is not f*cking Frankreich.
Me is living in Franken. Its a sector in Bavaria and it has nothing to do with France!
Björn’s bloodline still exist here in Sweden and many Swedes are blood relatives whit björn
Probably not a lot because of the black plague, but it probably still exist there yes. A good few norwegians are also related to Björn due to his cousins and grand- children moved to Norway for farming
My grandfather is rollo so if ragnar is rollo brother I guess dint related to Bjorn
@@nurideenmohammad912 Björn is ragnars son so yes you are related to him
@@ronng21 I meant to say im ragnar and rollo were really brothers in the past than I am related to Bjorn

exactly
@@snakey934Snakeybakey actually they all become thots and hoes at some point lol.
@@astonishingly true
lagartha was biggest thot who would sleep with anything and anyone.....
*Aslag*
Pretty much all of Ragnars family was more famous than him in the end, that's kind of the point.
He was the one to start it all, for them he was a God.
He was the one to start it all, for them he was a God.
Yeah, he was the greatest of them all, but in the end nobody knew about him, aside from those that actually knew him. That's the whole ironic point of the show, at least in my opinion.
Did you know about Rollo, Bjorn and Ivar before the show?? No ? But you have heard of the name Ragnar right? So now who's more famous?
(series related) even the seer told him his sons would accomplished more than he did
This has to be the most depressing voice over I've heard on TH-cam.
Gaeist agreed
I swear! Even now he pronounced pretty much ALL THE NAMES! yes maybe that's how they're pronounced "properly" (as some people have commented) but that's not how they pronounce em in the show & that's how I'll always remember the names!
Watch a channel called chills and you’ll know
the true meaning of depressing
Disel patches is worse
Watch Chills
I used to love this show, but when Ragnar died I lost all interest and quit watching. Also, according to what i read, he married Lagertha 3 different times; I was grossly disappointed in the show for keeping the Auslaug character as his wife and not reflecting the 2nd and 3rd marriages to Lagertha. Auslaug was, IMO, a terrible character, boring, unnecessary and irritating. They butchered history enough times they could have done so again to bring Lagertha and Ragnar back together. The show would have been so much better that way :(
Saw It every character got a role and aslaug played a big role in the development of this series...she may be boring...but was a crucial character...
@@halaforca1918 I never said she wasn't a crucial character. But she didn't need to be as crucial as they made her. According to some accounts, the historical figure (or compilation of) Ragnar had more than one wife, and/or married Lagertha more than once. A Season or two of Auslaug would have been fine, kill her off, move on.
Yeah i know man
She sucks
I just finished watching season 6 of Vikings even tho I cried lol I recommend you continue to watch it.
You gotta keep watching it’s not the same but still very good
I really loved Ragnar's character in the series! I miss the Ragnar from seasons 1 and 2 - that kind of Ragnar
It wasn't his fault, he was getting old n had too much on his head. N when athelstan died he was just so depressed. Although season 3 4 5 ragnar I loved because he became so wise
Black Plague season 5 ragnar? he died mid s4
Ragnar became trash and annoying in mid s3 and all of s4
@@blackplague3181 season 5?? What universe are you living on?
Black Plague for me season 4 with his drug trip and the Chinese princess was just horribly borring
I don't care how you pronounce Aslaug, She's always gonna be Ass Log to me.
DooDoo Man 👍
Lmfao my fiance calls her ass slug! Good god is she got supposed to be "beautiful" 🤪
👉😎👉
@@mrsqueaker751 I think she is pretty. A bit different looking but pretty.
😂😂💀👌🏼
I feel cheated I can’t believe lagertha is not ironsides mother and it was him who jumped out the coffin
everyone wanted to be more famous than Ragnar, comparing themselves to his popularity and making him more famous in the due process... that's a legend
"Ubbie" LOL
He said e - var like wtf
@@unsatisfiedTFT I think that was correct... "Eye-var" is the English way to say it
@@imwinningthisone7613 no, Ivar (Eye-var is the proper way to say his name).
In Sweden we say "Ivarr"
@@jenn1202 no that's not even close to the correct way to say his name
Vikings is like a real-life version of Game of Thrones.... minus the gratuitous nudity.
Love the Vikings show!
Though many wrong things in Vikings. Ivar was most likely not paralyzed.
mrdrebin123 you must consider that the serie is not just based on historical events. Its also based on saga (sometimes saga`s authors lied in other to gain better effect)
dont forget the weird armors that the saxons and the franks are wearing in the show. Complete and utter bullshit. The saxons are even wearing helmets that werent used until 700 years later xD
@Lancastrianer if you wanna see ridiclus armors, check the movie Ironclad
***** ... pffttt... why does GoT need to inject so much gratuitous nudity into it to keep audiences interested? Why not do it on the storyline alone?
Vikings does it without extreme gore or gratuitous nudity.... why not GoT ?
I admit I love GoT... but wish it was more like Vikings when it comes to the telling of the story, and staying focused on the plot, without the need for so much extra.
There is one other theory about Ivar the Boneless. Vikings were known to give Ironic names. Like calling a really big guy "tiny", or a really fat guy "slim" A viking grave was uncovered in England several years ago. It was a massive grave. Filled with lots of treasure and dead slaves but the viking inside was far from boneless. In fact he was huge. They are not sure that this was Ivar but the time and location of burial fits with Ivar and it's hard to imagine there were that many other vikings of the day that would warrant such a fine send off.
Ivar ( Ivarr Ragnarsson ) died in Dublin, Ireland around the year 870 or 873 ,
since nothing is heard about Ivarr after this date !
It is said that he died from a sudden illness , fever and infection.
Probably dysentery !
And probably in his bed.
He was often called a ''berserker'' in Dublin !
He was certainly not a '''crippled'' Viking Warlord, since the Icelandic Sagas mentioned
that as a young man he had the strength of 7 men
and he was fast and agile, like a ''snake '' !
Thats funny, us Mexicans give those nicknames too lol
@@Unknown-uk7nk Yeah, like calling terrorists "the doll" and "erotic".
"I shall enter odin's haul with no fear"
"Soon I will be drink irl from curved hornes"
"I welcome the valkieris to summon me home"
god bless u
FUCK Aslaug😂
Why?
BURN THE WITCH!!!
Lagertha fanboys I take it?
Ol booty chin havin ass 😂
Lagertha was obviously the best female in the entire show if you dont think so you're wrong!
Bjorn is the son of Ragnar and Aslaug? what a surprise!
SVETOGOR I didn't get it, i came to this because of the Viking show but I just saw him with just two wives
I thought Bjorn was the son of Ragnar and Lagertha :o
SVETOGOR ure high on something pal!!!
SVETOGOR the comentator of this video is wrong. bjorn is the son of lagertha and not of aslaug. look the season 1 episodes of vikings movie series for more details. thanks.
not aslaug thats wrong
Best line viking ...In my mind, I wish I had never left the farm.
One of the ideas for Ivar is that he was super agile and wore very light armor. So he would move very fast in battle that wouldn’t be possible in the heavier armor that other Vikings wore
There once was a hero named Ragnar the Red,
Who came riding to Whiterun from old Rorikstead.
Ahh, I See What You Did There😉
Beautiful ❤️
Ah, I see, you are a man of culture as well!
@House of Boogie Bro... Whiterun and Rorikstead are literally places from Skyrim ofc it is a Skyrim reference. Its a song you can request the bards to sing at the innkeep.
@@murat8210 dont have to request it these fucking bards sing it constantly xD
Where's Floki? The magical boat builder?
VaderJader I love floki's laugh
TEEHEE it's funny isn't it, i can hear it in my head.
FrAnK FMK Floki's laugh is the best part of the show.
No sagas ever mention him existing, I guess the shows creators decided to put him in there, smart move.
Floki went to Shetlands with his family. One daughter drowned. Then went Faroe Islands where his other daughter wed. He went to Iceland. Than back to Norway. Said the lands was not good but went back and lived out his days there.
Ragnar & Ivar are the reason i watch Vikings ♥ 🔥
And lagertha and old floki
And Bjorn
Floki, Ragnar, and Ivar grew on me.
İvar and ragnar bro
York is an amazing city. Just up the road from me. Still has dungeons and roman fortifications.
Boneless is a synonym for wind, wich could refer to his ability as a navigator.
Sounds a lot more likely than a crippled viking warlord.
Rakven how is boneless a synonym of wind
but a cippled viking warlord is more awesome , so ..
actually that is a theory
Hello.. Boneless, or "Beinløs" can mean NO MORAL FIBER also
Ivar the Boneless actually got his name by breaking his arm twice as a child. Ragnar had given him the name as joke, and Ivar took the name with pleasure.
Interesting how they kinda got both of Ragnar's causes of death in there. They did have him fall gravely ill during the seize on Paris, even faking his own death and then leaving it unsure if he'd make it at the end of the season. This could actually explain why some would go away thinking he'd died. Then of course he comes back and has his more dramatic death later in England. Very clever how they do their best to combine all the myths.
“RAGNA”
Me: *eye twitch*
The last kingdom is one of my favorite Vikings show I have never watched Vikings but I might
Last kingdom is awesome..Uhtred the Dane Slayer
Cool video.
I think it was one of the writers that said that Rollo and Ragnar were actually a couple hundred years apart. They just put many of the characters together for the series.
Well, he's not correct. It's estimated that Ragnar died 20 years after Rollo was born. I'm not sure about the accuracy of the dates(I think they're accurate)but It's not 200 years apart.
HELLRAISER Im pretty sure that Harald Hårfagre is the son of Sigurd snake in the eye’s daughter
@@MrCoCo753951 That is not true. There are written records in France when a certain Regnar raided Paris around 845. Rollo was baptised in 912 and died 932/933. If he had been like 20 in 845, he would have been around 110 years old. Also, the series start in 793 with the raid on Lindisfarne, making Regnar around 70 when raiding Paris and Rollo would be an immortal elf ;-) The series did indeed state that in order to tell the entire story of the Vikings, they had to cut corners and compress 200 years into less than 40.
@@beersmurff I see. Thank you for correcting me.
I cringed super hard every time you pronounced those names.
he`s american what did aspect
Raheel Khan you have to hear my pronunciation is worst and I am from Colombia!
yes hahhah
Well now, as a Scandinavian I can tell you that every name in the series is pronounced incorrectly. Ivar is actually pronounced correctly in this video.
Raheel Khan same
Never seen a smile like Ragnar's ♥️
Ivar at number one wow 🔥 Alex really played Ivars character so good
Ivar was called boneless because he was an agile and capable fighter. So much so he moved as if he had no bone. If he was truly a crippled he would be called the lame and not boneless
I think that the the translation is totally correct. "Benlös" or boneless in English. Ben also means leg in Swedish so it could mean either Boneless or legless.
Or could have lost legs in combat prior in Denmark before commanding a force over in England. Or that he was agile in tactics. He made deals with Aelle and and was against wasn't fully involved in the Northumbrian campaign. His main efforts were in Mercia and east Anglia. Confrontation with Wessex was fewer than his counterparts Guthrum and Ubba
Lame xD.. he'd have been called most likely the same.. No one really knows why he had the name. Same as With Bjorn, but his name is quite easy to make a contradiction on. As if your "side" is Iron you've most likely won a great victory.
Maybe Ivar lost a limb in combat like Thorstein and had to play more of a commanding role as he is a form of Viking nobility being a semi legendary son of Ragnar during the age of the Great heathen army?
Old societies still made nepostism a thing. So Ivar probably was very agile for a large warrior, or he was strategically very agile and cunning which is noted or he had lost limbs in combat before.
Ivar being someone with brittle bones disease is a joke. As good as imagining Stephen hawking at a battle in his wheel chair. Just imagine the absurdity
I hope Vikings lasts for 6 more seasons
They have not reached the 9. century yet. There are material for at least 40 more seasons :) Try google Harald Hardrada (Harald the hard Ruler) and you are close to the end of the viking area. His life alone is worth several seasons.
Hope to the gods they make a Harald Hardrada story, His jurney in the middle east is epic, maybe the best of all viking history :D
The name is vikings, so maybe it will exploit all the Vikings glorious history
Michael Hirst said that the end will be when they discover North America
WHICH WOULD BE LEIF ERIKKSON AND HIS SON ERIK THE RED, WHO LANDED NO NEW FOUNDLAND IN NORTH AMERICA ALMOST 300 YEARS BEFORE AMERICO VESPUCCI.
I am obsessed with this topic... thank you for the vid.
Vikings without Ragnar is like the office without Michael
Great video. Fell in love with the show, now I'm obsessed with Viking lore & history.
History is awesome... be it fact based or legend.
"Well every story starts with facts, but turns into rumors and soon be legends"
~someone from AC IV
Fiction !
@@RayB1656 a lot of people are related to some of ragnar sons even now
@@slylord8915 Previously, my comment was only about the Vikings TV show,
where most of the shown' events were quite fictitious.
As for the real historic characters ,
your guess would be as good as mine.
Since these 8th/9th centuries stories were written about 400 years later,
by clerics, difficult to know exactly what really happened.
For example to story of Ironside, there are two versions;
1. after his defeat by the Saracens at Gibraltar, he escaped to Sweden..
2. after his defeat, he died near a coast, nearby Frisa ...
Which one is the true story ?
Ragnarr and Bjorn were common names during that period,
probably the stories of many, were combined into one !?!
Yet, possibly, some Danes, Swedes, Norwegians do have
some knowledge about the ancestors... giving them a possible
connection with the past.
No quarrels here !
The problem it's often not well explained....
You killed it with the background music haha
Thanks for sharing that kind of information
nice insights, but you slaughtered the pronunciation of the names, outside vitzegs and bjorn's the rest you just smashed them to patata
George Zaharia asslog eeevar haahaa
Hvitserk. One of Ragnar's sons.
they sort of say "Fittserk" in the serie, Idk if that's the right way to say it?

“The Norsemen” is much more accurate than “Vikings”
Hmmm depends
Norsemen, a term used later after the 12 or 13 century ! ---- ''vikings'' called themselves OSTMEN. The word ''vikingr '' means to go on an expedition... nothing to do with a race or a group of people .
@@RayB1656 Yes
@@RayB1656 Yes ik that
it depends on who you are talking to, the people, or their charateristic
if you are an English , seeing 80 Drakkars coming at you with Grunts, and scream you can call them Vikings
if you talk about them , you can say the Pagans, or the Norsemen,
i have finished the 6 seasons of the show Vikings and been wondering ever since season 1 about the history of Vikings. This video is informative. They really exists huh! The characters in the show have similarities in history. Amazing!
Just discovered the series on Amazon Prime this week and have been on a binge - now up to series 2 finale. Love it!
RIP Ragnar, I'm sure everyone has seen it by now.
Also it's not a spoiler if the source material is 800 years old.

cool vid. Ever since ive been watching vikings they started to catch my interest more and more. Its nice to have some background information.
Glad you liked it! We're planning on doing more Vikings videos in the future.
Bro u really gave awesome infos
The impact that the vikings had on european history is actually kind of astonishing. They raided and migrated everywhere. From the eastern russian territories, all the way to the british isles and france.
I like vikings. The culture is so badass, even though they tend to glorify it in TV shows and movies.
For someone who's from Scandinavia I love how you pronounce the viking names, haha!
OMG!! THIS IS AMAZING!! The book series called "The last kingdom" links with this - The english side after Ragnars story - I remember Boneless
There is a series called : the last kingdom 😉 also with a character named Ragnar.. + some others characters also named in Vikings..
Great video!!!
Awesome Information 👍👍😊
Great video! The subtitles are the best - I'm latina and sometimes it's a little bit hard to understand everything just by hearing it-
Thank you very much for your appreciation!
I bet everyone in the restaurant turn their heads when you order food.
Thank you , very useful resume .
How you say some of the names is making me want smash my pc-screen to pieces.
He's technically right in the show they pronounce them in the american way
Awesome video bro it was really interesting and gave me a lot of new knowledge about the characters from the show. Ragnar's death though made me really sad:( I hope he get a better death in the show
Empire Of Gaming what did you think about his death on the show?
this is pretty cool, but i'm just curious if all of it is actually true? regardless, it makes for a good storyline.... but I just like to know there's truth to this kinda stuff. makes the show ten times better.
As we said in the video, some facts are historically true, some are just part of the Norse Mythology.
We just wanted to reveal were the show took its inspiration from and how much liberties it took.
yes, it does, doesn't it. I spent some of yesterday researching some of that stuff, and you were mostly right on-point from what I read. well done, and very interesting video.
Thank you very much!
This is actually full of inaccuracies. More geared to the show than the actual truth.
It wasn't Bjorn whom faked his death but, a supposed bastard of Ragnar.
Very interesting!
The story of Floki and Harald are pretty interesting as well
Sweden then. Look at us now.
Schwarze Scharen hahaha
Now you are a sad story. I feel pitty for you blue eyed blondy people, you are being raided and invaided by islam. These "Poor Refuegees",which are only men in ther 20's, came to rape your country of money and women..
What a sad ending to the mighty vikings
Very sad to see what is happening to the homeland of my fair descendants.
Sweden maybe raped back in viking days but, now everybody fuck sweden in the ass nowdays.
Mr Zeee you're a nice liberal muslim, i don;t question that. The problem is, that your muslim new commers are far from being liberal. They are the cause to all this hate and fear that is being spread right now because of their diabolic unhuman acts ! Lack of respect and appreciation for the people that rescue them from the poverty of their shitty countries (that are shitty, by the way, thanks to radical islam which is nowadays islam that burnt all the sience and knowladge the arab nations once achieved).
Modern Islam is a disease.
As a dane i cant help my self but to cringe when hearing those pronounciations..
But you're a Dane, so you wouldn't know either!
-Norwegian
As a norwegian, i cant help but cringe at you guys’ pronounciations
As a person that knows that the Vikings spoke Old norse which was pronounced differently from Danish, Swedish, or Norwegian, I can't but cringe at you guys thinking you know.
The most "authentic" way to pronounce them would be like in modern Icelandic which is still pretty close to Old Norse. And here there are for example two early forms of th (ð and þ) that dont even get used in the show nor any modern Scandinavian languages as far as i know, the r is rolled pretty heavily, almost closer to some spanish accents then most modern European tongues, theres many ä,ö,ü sounds and so on.
ive been self studying the scandinavian languages since i was 11, i can't say i naturally understand, but on a scholars standpoint i completely understand and i cringed all the same
Awesome explanation 👌
Plot twist : In reality Rollo wasn't Ragnar's Brother!

"I have osteoporosis" Ivar the boneless 873
Every time I think about the blood eagle I become Nathan explosion saying "brutal"
Ivar's name is well known. His actual name is really translated to "loose bones" and not boneless. The bones refered to being his legs, because he traveled the world and conquered far outside the north .
*Unpopular Opinion:*
Season 4 Ragnar was great and the best Character development his acting got better and peaked everyone else......The Character was at his lowest but that's because they had to worsen him so the sons could rise. And that was the best Character development in the show which shows what power and such responsibilities can do to a man along with greed and Betrayal.
Great video
Thank you!
I know all of these glorius storys we learn that from books, tales and School here in denmark
I just don’t think you can claim Ragnar is a myth then talk about his wives & kids lmao
Thank you!
I am a Vikings addict! 💖
Informative and well made. Thank you.
Thank you too!
but most of it is bullshit tho. ragnar is a story (like odin or thor), lagethar is made up for the series. rollo/robert story is false. björn was king of sweden. aslaug i a mythical person like odin and thor too...
@@serpouncedk3933 ---- the Vikings TV show is fiction ! With fictional event stories, including with some real historical individuals. Quite complex and some scenes are totally confusing !

It's 2021 my all time favorite bonding
FLOKI WITH RAGNAR 😍 real meaning of friendship
Wicked thanks 😎
