𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐋𝐘𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐒 (𝐎𝐥𝐝 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞):
Þat kann ek á ýta sjǫt
ef ek skal til orrustu
leiða langvini,
undir randir ek gel
en þeir með ríki fara;
heilir hildar til,
heilir hildi frá.
Koma þeir heilir hvaðan.
𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍:
In Midgard, I know that
if I lead old friends
into a battle,
I enchant their shields
so that they will have the victory;
they will go to battle unharmed,
and return from battle unharmed.
They will come home without harm.

Grimfrost Hird is a global organization dedicated to exploring and reconstructing Viking Age combat. The main tool for this is the Holmgang setting, where two fighters are facing off according to the old rules from the Viking Age. The historical duels were fought with sharp weapons and without armor - the Hird uses blunt weapon and all the necessary armor to stay safe (which includes a lot of non-Viking period gear - safety first!)
𝐖𝐇𝐘
The main objective is to find out what techniques really worked in the small 4m x 4m ring. We do know that the fighters had extra shields with them, which indicates that the fights were aggressive and that the strikes used a lot of force. That is expected in a life and death situation that can't be escaped.
𝐇𝐎𝐖
The fights are full contact in the true sense of the word, and most body parts are allowed targets.
To further simulate the setting, a points system is used where 1 scoring strike that would have incapacitated an unarmored opponent ends the round. It basically means that the opponent would have died or been severly injured. Just imagine putting a wood chopper's axe into your thigh - you'd be out of action quite quickly.
You can see Hird Holmgang fighting in greater detail here: • Viking Holmgang
To make things more interesting for the fighters, the rounds continue until one has reached 3 points.
Worth noting regarding historical accuracy when it comes to the armor: The Hird reconstructs combat - not appearence. Mail would be preferable, but lamellar armor is necessary in a full contact Holmgang setting to rigidly protect the fighters. Nobody wants to be injured badly. The exception is for experienced fighters who feel comfortabe with their defensive skills.

Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young.
Thanks to Grimfrost Clan for always sharing.
The Spartans had a very similar mindset to that too.
I could see a Grimfrost academy opening up one day soon. Could you imagine a campus built like a Norse village ? Where people could come to spend a summer or winter, live like our Scandinavian ancestors did 1200yrs ago. Blacksmithing, combat training, growing food, gathering food , fishing and so on.
I could wake up to the sound of the Smith's hammer every morning.
You have the ship's, you have land or a village buy now I'm sure, what do you think Grimfrost ?
Skulle vara amazing. 😍
Bring back the Jomsviking.
I would definitely join this academy. SKOL!
Hey, don't forget spinning and weaving! Naalbinding, tabby weaving, brewing, and because nobody likes starving, food!
@@FjordviiktheSkald Me too! 👍
A Viking man can impress women by demonstrating how he takes his longship up a canal to deliver seeds which can be planted in fertile places.
lol nice!!!!
Ja mine forfedre gjorde dette pa hvert sted de coukd, Skol
😂
Yes us ladies love a guy who can handle his longboat 😅
😂😂😂
So glad to hear Johan doing more of this kind of songs. His voice is even more extraordinary here than when he is growling for Amon Amarth. Hoping for many more to come. Hindafjall is really becoming a band that counts in that genre! Awesome.
Regardless he is great in both bands. I enjoy both death metal viking and this kind of music
😊

Sure, I can use more of this !
Listening to this in the gym right now. Hell yes my brothers ⚔️
This is awesome Grimfrost! Not only do you make awesome products to connect us to our history, but epic songs as well. Skål!!
U people again start radeing i will also join u from india ! Sheilddddd wallllll 💥💥💥💥💥
I met Johan once at an Amon Amarth concert. Great guy and great band. I've learned so much about my ancestry thanks to him through his music and his products. I'm more Norwegian than Swedish, but I regularly study the language and the teachings of Odin thanks to Amon and to Grimfrost.
Same here brother im also Norwegian and Swedish and try to read as much into and leaen the history as possible. Oðínn advises us to be wise. As far as meeting Johan that must have been awesome! Glad you could have gotten that experience. SKÅL!
@@TacticoolVIKINGBeard Hello Norwegian brothers, even though I am considered Russian but I am also a Norman, a great great child of the Viking warriors who were one of those who where holding whole Europe accountable with the parts of Northern Africa and Islamic world but now they have gone out of control after the Viking age ended
i wonder how would it sound if Johan was a guesst vocal at Heilung show.. cause this is amazing.
I think Wardruna or Skald instead!
I could feel the vibration of my Ancestors whilst listening to this! Brilliant production!
May the norse culture never die!
Never will we are still here and new generations are on the way!
Cheers to Grimfost for sharing and hails to the Vikings and Johan Hegg from Amon Amarth
The older gentleman on the longship, with that glorious white beard, looks soo badass. Mad respect for what you guys are doing, and seeing historically accurate arms and armor, but also clothing, in this video is awesome! Keep up the great work. Amazing song btw:)
Promise brothers, that we will sing this holy chant when we meet in All father's halls of valor
Amon Amarth fan forever,and great respekt for Grimfrost warriors..keep your heritage to live..Johan is excelent vocal but here show diferent side and style..am also Heathen and have great respekt for Nordic music and peoples..Hail Odin...Hail Thor.
HAIL VICTORY
HAIL THE AESIR
HAIL THE VANIR
I met Johan Hegg back in 2019 with Amon Amarth on their berserker tour Awsome guy and my favourite metal band. I also love listening to viking folk music such as this song 😁😁😁😁😁
Heil und Segen ... 🔥⚔️🛡️⚔️
WOW! Now that's a battle song! Deep bass, frightening and inspirational. Gives you chills down your back and makes you want to take up your sword and shield. Tack så mycket!
Awesome music…and great to watch REAL men as they once were.
Absolutely bloody fantastic, as a now veteran pensioner. It may not sound great to the fluffy ones of today. But once. Warrior it stays with you for life. If I could just get to the Australian ones someplace and finish getting my kit. Stay strong Clan 🫡🪖🇦🇺
Grimfrost never disappoints!!!
Hail the old ways
Ja älskar det här ❤
They were nuts, bless ‘em.
Played this to a worm in my garden.
He´s Jormungandr now.
Можно слушать часами... 🔥🔥🔥Божественно!
A great song for a great cause. May it be true for the singer, true for the hearer. No one should have to fight cancer, but especially a child. Let's take better care of our planet so these chemicals do not get into the soil and water. More great songs like this one, please!
Had this on repeat on Spotify all day 🤘🐺
This makes me want to boost my sword and spear skills. It really speaks to my heart. Thank you for this. May the Allfather bless you.
Safe into battle,safe out of battle
heilir hildar til, heilir hildi frá
"156. An eleventh I know, | if needs I must lead
To the fight my long-loved friends;
I sing in the shields, | and in strength they go
Whole to the field of fight,
Whole from the field of fight,
And whole they come thence home."
much love from finland
Axe time
Sword time
Shields are splintered.
Another amazing video! Hope all is well Grimfrost! 🇧🇻 🇺🇲
Goosebumps❤️😍
As every time wonderful work😍
Amazing song
Our ancestors and the god’s must be proud 😍🇮🇸
That was amazing.
I love this song
I feel like grim frost videos are the most accurate depiction of vikings that we have. No dramatics, but they are still extremely good looking compared to the saxons that will never change 😂
Great song, full of spirit. I love it. Cheers from Denmark. Skål!
Amon amarth is a great band live btw just had to say that. Johens voice is so brutal
OH HOW I CRAVE FOR SIMPLER TIME OF BATTLE, GLORY AND PLUNDER.
Yesss!!!
I knew my people were out there. Brothers !
MAY THE VALKYRIE RIDE WITH YOU!
Älskar! 🖤⚔
Thank you for this! 🧡🧡🧡
Leute, das ist einfach gute Musik.
Absolutely amazing Grimfrost! This made my morning.
love it!! from a sister who is Slavic/greek/french living in Canada Quebec!!
looking and sounding strong as ever Grimfrost!
As strange as it probably sounds I write a lot of Conan fanfiction and other low-fantasy sword and sorcery types of stories and music like this really helps me get in the right headspace to build that world. Thank you for that 😊
Sir could you post where we could read some of your work.
Have you been published in books or magazines that are sold in big chain stores?
@@lonknight3197 No, I don't have that sort of money, I wish I did but I'm still in college
@@Alexander-Craig0530
Try doing your own comicbook , create a Conan like character get the right paperwork. Copwrited hire a friend whose is an artist to do the drawing and publish it by website, an internet comic ,
I am myself planning on doing this in a couple of years when i can retire and spend all day writing and doing my own poor excuse for artwork.
Think about it , and have fun.
Love it!
This song is incredible
I was born in the wrong century
@Grimfrost Another brilliant song. Best thing I've done is find you on TH-cam. Your songs and music keep me connected to the old ways. Brilliance! I can't say enough how much joy you've brought to me and many others. Skol! Brother!

Skål krigare 🍺
geil!
Awesome. I really liked that.
An eleventh I know, | if needs I must lead
To the fight my long-loved friends;
I sing in the shields, | and in strength they go
Whole to the field of fight,
Whole from the field of fight,
And whole they come thence home.
We modified the text a bit. Here's our translation:
In Midgard, I know that
if I lead old friends
into a battle,
I enchant their shields
so that they will have the victory;
they will go to battle unharmed,
and return from battle unharmed.
They will come home without harm.
Nicely made, as a Swede I really enjoyed it 👍❤ some of the Icelandic words do sound familiar to what we would use today in Sweden, and it's really cool to hear this performed so well 🙂 keep up the good work
👍👍👏
