There _was_ a horrific avalanche in Longyearbyen in December 2015, which tragically killed two people (a man and a little girl).

      I mean, noone will be punished for dying, but you can't be buried there because of permafrost. And people are not allowed to live there unless they work. So if you retire you have to move back to mainland Norway.

    I’m from Minnesota and I am so proud of my Norwegian ancestry. I love Norway so much! I bore people to death with all the information that I know about the country and/or the Viking Age.
    Fun Fact: I met the Princess of Norway, Märtha Louise when I was a little boy during her book tour; met her in Minneapolis, MN.
    Also, I was a finalist to be a cast member on the “Alt for Norge” tv show for Season 9. It didn’t work out because I’m in college and it’s hard to schedule around that... but who knows... I could always possibly be a future contestant; the directors liked me and have wanted me to keep in touch with them until I graduate.

    IMPORTANT!! 3:45, You are allowed to ROAM almost everywhere in Norway, but you are NOT allowed to camp everywhere. In fact, to set up camp can be forbidden many places due to several reasons. You are not allowed to camp on private or agriculture land (unless given permit), in national parks or in nature reserves. In national parks dough there are often official huts/cabins to use

    There is a funfact about the relationship between Nepal and Norway that should be mentioned. Due to the preservation of the mountains, it's not really allowed to drive heavy machinery up the mountains. Since people (tourists?) want to go to the top of mountains, Sherpas from Nepal are payed to build stairs up various mountains to make it easier to access. The stones are either air lifted with a helicopter, and moved slightly, or carried up. There are a lot of stone stairs that are not made by the sherpas obviously, but it's still a fun fact. So you can come to Norway and just walk a long ass staircase up a mountain.

      18:30 Spoken Swedish is closer to spoken Norwegian. Written Danish is closer to written Norwegian, as it resembles old Norwegian in many ways. At least in "Bokmål" which is the most used written language.
