    One of the most epic episodes in all of Vikings. The Great Bjorn Ironside died a true hero and will never be forgotten. He is now in Valhalla with Ragnar and Lagertha, feasting at the side of Odin.

      Bjorn Ironside went out a hero he died a hero and he went down in history as one badass legendary King for he went all around the world and learned the secrets of fighting and conquering he probably has some children that he never knew about and I hope one day they carry his Legend his descendants will say that there was a great man at one point who became a legend

      I'm guessing you mean in respect of the show because in real life lagertha was not his mother and more than likely Ragnar was not a real person

    The burial site of Björn Ironside is located in Sweden. They mention Norway but it would have been Northmen from all over Scandinavia that answered the call not just Norway. And Björn was a Swedish viking. The Burial Mound of Bjorn Ironside, which is called Björnshögen or Björn Järnsida's hög in Swedish, is a royal burial mound located on Munsön island in Lake Mälaren and in Ekerö Municipality, Sweden.

    We weren't kidding when we said S6 is the most emotional season of Vikings and you'll probably cry more than all the other seasons combined. This show really knows how to complete character and story arcs. In an earlier reaction in Season 6A, you guys even mentioned that Bjorn isn't a great leader but he really knows how to inspire people to follow him. Well this time, inspiring people to follow him is the reason he finally became a great leader, and accomplished something only he could do, even Ragnar couldn't have done what Bjorn did this episode (in the words of the showrunner himself). Bjorn didn't just lead, he saved his country and his people.
    Olaf's character arc makes a lot of sense when you watch through the series a second time, he seems mysterious but everything he does follows his goal of avoiding catastrophe. He doesn't know if Valhalla or Heaven is real, but he wants to get into whichever one is. Even though he talked about Jesus and being ripe for Heaven now, in a previous he talked about being safely in Valhalla before the end of the world, and we know from Jarl Borg's execution that you can get into Valhalla by enduring an execution with screaming, which Olaf did here. He's leaving all doors open, while also trolling the Rus with that Jesus quote, and it really goes beyond just these two religions. Olaf has been associated with Buddhist symbolism throughout the show; the episode he was introduced in season 5 was titled "The Buddha", his body shape and elongated earlobes resembled the Buddha, Hvitserk thought he was the Buddha as well, and his manner of death in this episode was a reference to the real life examples of Buddhist monks being burned alive while not making a sound (which is what you were talking about in the reaction). Olaf can be thought of as pan-religious, and that directly ties into what Ubbe was talking about this episode as well.
    It's possible that either Hvitserk or Ivar freed Harald (no one else on their team has a reason) though Ivar was obviously upset about it and told Harald he would have made a different decision about who to kill. However remember that this is King Harald's city, that is King Harald's home and great hall, and that is King Harald's prison. Olaf imprisoned Harald in that very prison earlier in the season, before the tables turned, and it stands to reason that Harald would have learned from the humiliation of being imprisoned in his own prison and devised a plan to make sure something like that never happened again and built in a way to escape.
    The place where Bjorn was buried is known as a burial mound or barrow and is one of the traditional Viking burial methods along with the more well known ship burial which we've seen many times before on the show. The real Bjorn Ironside is buried in a mound just like the one shown in the episode and you can go visit it. After the episode aired, I saw a comparison pic of the show's barrow and the real barrow on Twitter, though I can't find it anymore, but there are plenty of pictures of the real mound online. Even after over a thousand years have passed, it hasn't flattened and remains a rounded hill and some of the stone fragments remain as well, and there are some trees growing from it now.
    In season 5 Heahmund asked Ivar if any of his brothers frightened him and Ivar said no, then admitted "maybe Bjorn, just a little." Ivar can certainly learn something from Bjorn, he saw his brother do the impossible and earn a spot in Valhalla at the same time. Ivar had an epic scene in season 5 yelling how he can't be killed and he will live forever, but he was in a state of mind where he truly believed he would not die. Here, Bjorn knew he was going to die and rose up anyway, and that's something very different. Ivar hasn't truly faced death the way Bjorn did here, and this episode he fully realized that. As for Hvitserk, even though Bjorn banished him, Hvitserk always loved and looked up to Bjorn. He went raiding with Bjorn in the Mediterranean, and afterwards when all of Aslaug's sons were discussing killing Lagertha, Ubbe said if they killed Lagertha they'd have to kill Bjorn too and he didn't want to have to do that, and Hvitserk laughed and said he couldn't do it anyway. He's always looked up to Bjorn as this legendary figure, even when they were on opposite sides.
    Remember that the Rus were very recently pagan Vikings. Their old capital Novgorod (Oleg's brother's city) looks Viking, we've seen that they can still speak Old Norse, and all of those Rus soldier's grandfathers and maybe even many of their fathers believed in Odin, and characters like Katia had no problem drinking to Odin which is something the English and Franks would never do. The old gods and old ways are still in their minds and memories, so when they saw Bjorn do what he did this episode, they must have thought the gods were there, and the gods were angry at them. That's part of why they were so scared and so many of them immediately ran off instead of trying to stay and fight. Oleg told them this was the end of the pagan gods, but his army has seen differently. It may still be the end, but they aren't gone yet, and their faith in Oleg will be affected by this.

    So many times iv'e seen this ep i'm still speechless every time, there's no words....I maintain it's my all time favorite scene in all of Vikings. This is the shit that makes people become legends for real. Everything is perfect in those last minutes, Bjorn rising up to his own legend and stepping up as the King he failed to be, Hviserk throwing Ragnar's lines, everyone in disbelief at what they are seeing, and Ivar trying to convince himself that Bjorn isn't a literal god standing there appearing unsure...We've seen Bjorn Ironside since he was a boy, his ups and downs and his entire journey, through it all he ended up flawed and incomplete and deeply remorseful much like his father before him, but in truth in death rather than feel shameful he rose and secured his legacy as a King and a true legend. He's a shining example of strength, persevering unshakable power and determination. And he will Never be forgotten, and never be beaten, which is exactly how I interpret Hviserk's words, you cannot killl Bjorn Ironside, not in his true being and convictions.

      The fact that they mistook Luna for Rome and decided to raid it anyways in true Vikings fashion, and then came up with that fake baptism and burial... Vikings were truly ahead of their time. I do believe it was Bjorn's half brother Hastein that ended up in the coffin if I'm not mistaken, but I'm rusty on my history.

    In history after king olaf abdicated he was a baptized as a Christian and left his money to the church he was canonized as a saint after his death first as a martyr then as a saint ,and yes there are a lit of similarities between the pagan and Christian religions, certain concepts of christianity originally came from them like hell in Norse was hel or the underworld or hades in the Greco Roman religions pantheon of gods , Christian religions holidays like Christmas and new years come from them , and churches were built on there old sites often

    After this show id highly recomend looking into the real history. The show is losely based on fact but lots of fiction to make it a good story. Many characters would not have ever met in the first few seasons and they change some locations and people in wars around. Björn Järnsidas hög, the mound of Björn Ironside, is a real place and his suspected burial site. He wasn't the king if Norway but rather Sweden. He is the founder of what is sometimes called The House of Björn Ironside, is the earliest reliable attested royal dynasty of Sweden. Your best ways are to simply Google basic things from the show and you'll find pretty damn awesome history. Some of the reality is BETTER than the show. Some is unfortunately a little mundane but thats just life, not everything makes for good TV. I'd also recomend two videos by Epic History TV on TH-cam that are interviews of the renowned Tom Shippey.
    The first video talks about 5 great viking deaths and what they tell us about their life and mind: th-cam.com/video/STK4GBaqItk/w-d-xo.html
    The other being shorter and focused on "Ragnar" specifically and his death words: th-cam.com/video/EzH6pZLeLYs/w-d-xo.html

    In our culture, the Valkyrie are feared. They are both witch and warrior, sanctioned by Odin himself to pass judgement. Only Allfather Odin may command them, and they are distrusted and often feared by the other gods who give them a wide berth. Their loyalty is beyond measure.
    They brought Bjørn home where he belonged, Valhalla...
    Those burial hills started with something called "Jættestue" which can be translated to "dwelling of giants" built circa 3.300 B.C.
    They later evolved to burial mounds for famed and valorous chieftains and Viking kings.
    There are around 500 of them in Denmark. As a child I saw one, and even now there's an eerie feeling about them. Almost as if you can "taste" the past.
    Our word for wife is "hustru", house true or house faithful if you like. The woman is faithful to the home and husband is "husbond", bound to the house and heart of his woman.
    Our customes were much more "liberal" than in later christian times. A wife could summon witnesses and say publicly, "I am no longer with you", and that was basically a divorce. Women could own land and some did indeed become shield maidens. A tomb was discovered in Sweden 2-4 years ago with a female chieftain warrior. The bone analysis concluded that the muscle tissue from her arms were comparable to modern female olympic rowers meaning she would have no difficulty wielding both sword/axe and shield.

    The only condition for Valhalla in Norse mythology is bravery or manner of death (glorious combat). Odin isn't that picky for rules or full obedience (how Ragnar was granted access). They buried him in that manner because they wanted to show him as still alive since he was Ironside and was the man that could not die. So a traditional pyre ship is a bit too final for a man who everyone refuses to believe died.

    Ivar definitely didnt free Harald because he said himself he would of picked Harald to die ans Ivar was genuinely pissed he escaped so im guess Harald freed himself since their seemed to be blood on the floor near his chains.
    Long live King Bjorn ironside, enjoy Valhalla, i love that Hvitserk repeated his fathers last words and said goodbye to his eldest brother even though he was against him. Im sure even Ivar felt something too, he definitely did last episode. Unfortunately Hirst loves to make brothers fall out and kill each other, whether its Rollo and Ragnar, Ragnars sons, Harlad and Halfdan or Oleg and his brothers.
    I also love that Bjorn mentioned his regrets which the actor wanted in about his regrets of being a father or not much of one most of the time, especially to Siggy.
