@Fundamentalist Reformer Not only. There were various native tribes that lived in the Americas. There were also the Incas. And many others in the North America.
I'm not gonna lie, this scene put a big 'ol smile on my face. I never forgave floki for him murdering Athelstan. This was sweet sweet karma. floki murdered Athelstan outta pure jealousy & his actions devastated Ragnar, he discovers what he believes to be the land of his Gods only to find a Cross there & it drives him utterly insane.
Totally agree. The way the show lays out the Norse gods and Christianity both being real gives credence to all characters that have a faith crisis. This scene is such good comeuppance for Floki for all the terrible things he did in the name of his gods. The settlement utterly failing, the infection nearly killing him, everyone he ever loved dying or leaving him, and finally revealing that his “land of the gods” had been touched by the Christian God long ago was like watching him pass through hell. Imo he got off easy being able to settle down in America and (likely) pass peacefully.
@@jimmypints even to this day you have people in the comments playing team religion, but they totally miss what the show conveys. The conversation between Ecbert and Ragnar highlights it, that all peoples have a god, rather if it's real or not isn't the issue, without it people have no purpose. Rather you pray to a single God with a court of angels or many gods with a king (Allfather, Zeus, Ra.) All peoples pray to a higher power and believe in an afterlife that would sound silly to someone of another faith. Whose to say ones correct over the other? Maybe we all have a part of it right, but missing another part if it. Even nowadays we're learning how many religions borrow details from others, the 3 abrahamic religions are all very similar yet so different. Whose to say a peoples with no written language didn't interpreted the almighty as the allfather? - Sorry didn't realize how long this had got lol
@@nobodyspecial115The Bible already answers this dilemma, the gods of the nations are real, they are real beings with real influence, however they are not the most high, there can only be one, most high and creator, and this is the only one worthy of human worship.
Floki already started to feel a change of heart and a bit of chaos in terms of his faith and belief when he heard the Muslim call of prayer and when he saw the Muslims praying in the Mosque of Al Andalus, than he somehow became a devoted man after finding the island and he had visions of gods and thought he found the land of the gods and to find the cross was the least he expected and that has broken him and he just screamed because his dreams were destroyed and his feelings and belief were in total chaos
When he saw the Muslims praying in Al-Andalus, I think he was shocked, and perhaps he admired their total devotion, despite the fact Viking raiders were massacring the Muslim people.
@@cameronmurray5973 In real life, it won't be exaggeration either.. i recommend you guys try finding videos of Muslims continuing their prayers in life threatening situations. There was one during an Earthquake somewhere in Middle East, and there was this famous video of Muslims in Jerusalem continue praying as best they could as Israelis throws gas grenades at worshippers..

@@feonor26 You're right thats VERY DEEP and SUPER SYMBOLIC. Dude it's a tv show that bends history every which way for drama and has got stupider and more dumbed down the longer the show has went on
I hated Floki for killing Athelstan, but since he reached Iceland and lost his family he seemed to be a kinder and more enlightened person, so I can't help but feel bad for him here. :(
The Irish monks had been spreading the gospel and going on missions since the 6th century AD. A lot of the Christianization of Europe was owed to them, apart from Charlemagne's empire that conquered and forced many to convert into the new faith.
Irish Monks inhabited Iceland before the Vikings, of course when the Vikings arrived it was uninhabited as the Irish left years before, however, somethings were left behind, such as this cross.
What makes this more Ironic is that Floki was doing his best to adhere to the new principals he set for himself and to change from the man he once was, including giving for forgiveness to others and also trying to convince others to forgive and to spare lives, which is more of Christian tenet than it is a Norse one and he didnt even realize it.
Floki survived from the explosion 💥 that’s miracle and that’s the reason he is so calm in the end of the series because he knew in the end why he survived and that is the reason his soul is healed...
@@boeloevanboeloefontein No. It's a quote from a movie made in 2007. Written by Neil Gaiman. A man neither Christian nor pagan by religion or blood. In the actual Anglo Saxon poem, Beowulf is a Christian. Or at least the poet is a Christian and makes no mention of pagan gods. Some of the final words of Beowulf are as follows: "I wish to give thanks, speaking such words as I may, to the almighty Ruler, the King crowned with glory, the eternal Lord, for these riches I look on here by the barrow, that I have been blessed to acquire for my dear people, before the time of my passing." But the point is this: In no interpretation of the original text does Beowulf curse or oppose the Christian God.
@@boeloevanboeloefontein Gonna cry? Go get some more of your culture from glorified video game cutscenes, genius. And yes, there is poetic license. But there's also taking a story and perverting it to mean the exact opposite on purpose.
The facial expressions the smile the laughter the sheer pain the denial this scene made me laugh my fucking ass off the second they showed the cross i lost my shit i was not expecting that complete 180 u turn this is both genius and genuinly evil torturing floki like this but his acting is what makes this scene
At the end of series, Floki was hinted become a Christian himself and left his old ways. Despites his brutal past for killing many Christians. The god still guided him to Christian faith and saved Floki from his wrath from volcano eruptions just to show that he is the god, he has power and he choose mercy over punishment as Christian is all about peace. From this moment, Floki started to change and abandoned his old gods. The god mercy had melted a heart of steel of a ruthless viking. Floki is more like darkness turned light, in search of Odin but found Jesus while Aethelstan is a Christian who disobeyed the god by committed an adultery.
Uhm, no? Floki became obviously agnostic and more of an animist. There are other peaceful philosophies than Christianity, if one can even barely call Christianity peaceful.
They were a defence to Arabian middle easterns damaging Europe, if it wasn’t for Spanish you would be speaking Arabic today and have no rights… educate yourself!
Very interesting that this is episode 5"19, in the Bible the verse goes as follows... John 5:19 says, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise". This verse is part of a passage in which Jesus defends his ministry after the Pharisees challenge him for violating their Sabbath traditions and claiming equality with God. This is similar to and a parallel you to Floki's situation questioning his own beliefs and traditions. I wonder if the writers intended this?
So many comments about Floki having a crisis of faith but you are all wrong if you rewatch its obvious that behind the cross there is a big screen showing season 8 game of thrones.
Floki was a great characture as were so many in this series. A lot of shows I feel nothing but with Floki I loved and hated him enough to feel something.
It wasn't orchestrated by the christian god. Using the proof, it is believed that both Norse gods, and Christian god exist together in the Vikings show.
I literally just finished going to the Mitchelstown Cave in Ireland where they filmed this scene and they have the actual pot that Floki threw. Not gonna lie i geeked out when i saw it. What an intense scene for Gustaf to film especially with the conditions of the cave floor being so slippery.

There is some evidence the Irish Christians visited Iceland before the Norse did. The writers might have used that as sort of a `fuck you` to Floki. And he most certainly can fuck himself.
This a scene to depict Floki's realisation that the the answers he was looking for came from Christianity..that's why Floki starts crying..because he realised he'd been asking help from the wrong Gods all this time
@@MrWorldling That's your interpretation. Floki stumbled upon remains left by earlier christian monks and he probably takes it as a last 'fuck you' from Athelstan. Floki killed him, but haven't been able to escape him ever since.

So many comments about Floki having a crisis of faith but you are all wrong if you rewatch its obvious that behind the cross there is a big screen showing season 8 game of thrones.

Floki was a great characture as were so many in this series. A lot of shows I feel nothing but with Floki I loved and hated him enough to feel something.
To be a true Viking and get a calling from the Gods to find out his whole journey was orchestrated by the Christian God.
This was like God saying I am the true path, drop the mic! 😄
It wasn't orchestrated by the christian god. Using the proof, it is believed that both Norse gods, and Christian god exist together in the Vikings show.
I could be wrong, but in Floki's last squeak/breath it almost sounds like he's trying to say "forgive me". Curious
One true faith
Now that is an existential crisis.
Abashed, the devil stood and saw how awful goodness is.
Was that the Holy grail casually laying there?

Christianity is already 800 odd years old at that point.
They get around.

Wait was that chalice meant to be the Holy Grail??!?
No it's just meant to show that someone else has been here before and the fact that theres a cross in his "Gods land" is like his breaking point. But the cave did look full of Christian relics so it could be.
More likely the "cup of trembling" which is referenced in the bible, or symbolic of it at least.

I don't understand, was this scene symbolic or all in flokis head? Or is this suposed to be somewhat based on some kind of historical facts I'm not aware of, or just some artistic license by the writers as to hint a possible place the holy grail is hidden etc.
There is some evidence the Irish Christians visited Iceland before the Norse did. The writers might have used that as sort of a `fuck you` to Floki. And he most certainly can fuck himself.
Lazaro Ordaz it is just so hilarious :) I don't rememner a thing that i laughed this hard :D
Pretty sure the scene was to just hammer into the thick-head of Floki that he wasn't actually in Asgard.
This a scene to depict Floki's realisation that the the answers he was looking for came from Christianity..that's why Floki starts crying..because he realised he'd been asking help from the wrong Gods all this time
@@MrWorldling That's your interpretation. Floki stumbled upon remains left by earlier christian monks and he probably takes it as a last 'fuck you' from Athelstan. Floki killed him, but haven't been able to escape him ever since.
