there are two series in to go down in history as the greatest ever written, Vikings and Game of Thrones.....now if we can bring them together how awesome that would be
Early Vikings had some nice shield wall battles. However, this scene was nuts. Björn shouts "shield wall" which they form but right afterwards they start charging loosely so the wall is gone...
@@scruffy7760 Not really. Its been a pretty cool show and one of the best shows that involved vikings. Most people would prefer Last kingdom over the show vikings.
A further thought on the Phalanx, perhaps maybe because it would have taken such a rigorous amount of training, drill, practice, day in day out. Not ONE man could turn and run or it would fail. They had to be tremendously disciplined and drilled, a very very professional group of soldiers. Maybe it was just so timely to invest that much time, money, food, etc.. into training an Army to be on that level.
@@hawkinatorgamer9725 Greek Hoplite Phalanx's consisted mainly of militias. The Term hoplite is literally Citizen-Soldier. They would only drill during the summer months for a few weeks at a time and possibly go to a few week long campaign before going home. It was a cultural expectation to be that disciplined and to fight in that custom. Ancient warriors were built different.
Ready call/mark before the charge and intimidation. Both sides of a tribe in New Zealand would preform a Haka before battle just to intimidate their opponents. "Shield Wall" was basically their call that it's time to mess people up. Or you know, it's a TV show and it looks as hell lol
Normal formation battles in Vikings ended in seasons 2-3. In the 4th season and beyond, these are no longer battles in formations, but simply dumps - and the fact that Bjorn seems to be commanding his warriors "wall of shields" does not affect anything - after all, immediately after that the Vikings simply run forward without any formation. Anglo-Saxons do the same. It can be seen that the directors of the battles, who knew a lot about this, left the show. Probably - to the Last Kingdom - because the battles there are staged perfectly
Yeah, but the series likes to develop the characters, showing the rise of great heroes, and a shield wall battle would be boring and wouldn't give freedom of movement to the actors. Even The Last Kingdom has moments of breaking reality, like when Uhtred alone jumps suicidally in front of a shield wall, breaking through and killing everyone. In Vikings this is just done more often.
Most of the battles are jokes. Its just people running at each other. None of the historical tactics they actually used. They call for shield walls which both the english and danes used historically but then they break shield wall formation immediately. The point of a formation is you stay in it.
@@WyWall no point staying in shield wall if you outnumber and the other side isnt attacking. I believe they called it in case the other side took such position also or decided for a ranged attack.
George B. The battle is wrong. Historically allea beats the Viking force and is captured at York by the danes some time after the battle. Saxons where as hard as nails.
Not one viking with a helmet on. Really I think not. You could be the poorest man in the army you still went in to battle with a helmet even if you had no other body armour.
Theres a reason why Ragnar died with a smile on his face. That's because he knew he would get his payback. He knew what was about to be unleashed. He knew what was coming. Fury was coming. Destruction was coming. Hell was coming. They were coming. His sons were coming the SONS of anarchy
Its funny because historians will let you know that all these shows and movies are so false whe it comes to battle.....they wouldnt fight in these huge mobs scattered around because it made it incredibly difficult to know friend from foe when you're surrounded by weapons
The picts/celts were greater than vikings they fought naked no armour no nothing, the vikings could never conquer them the dna of modern day scots prove that.
@@Del-Blanco-Diablo some may, others dont. Read about a berserker who, in real life, stood alone against the english army of 7000 men and defeated his them one by one and defended stamford bridge on his own to give his people a chance to get out before being surrounded. They army only defeated him in the end by a ranged attack because they used a spear to stab him from below the span of the bridge as he couldn’t be taken down in upfront battle. This is the tale of a warrior. Standing alone against 7000 men and actually being able to defend the bridge so well on his own that a whole army have to find another way to kill him is insane.
I absolutely love Vikings, but I think Spartans would have that title as they would happily die by spartan law in glorious death crushing their enemies and there training and selection was just so effective in its day. A 1000 Spartans against 1000 Vikings or Northman would be no more than a workout for the Spartans in there Prime. But may I be clear, I love Vikings they are very high in the totem pole of warriors and great people of history, there sea voyages alone deserve respect, best analogy I heard is that the Vikings were like the navy seals of there day striking without warning from the sea or rivers and were also very accomplished traders and travellers as well as warriors, and dispute not really having a written language were very cultured and intelligent for the times because of this. It's a shame that the Viking Kings converted to Christianity for wealth and power, as I thing Europe and the world lost something special when they changed or die out from the Pegan ways.
I think that's a wives tale- that notion that leaders wouldn't go into battle if they were the ones swinging the swords. No leader would actually lead a battle- that would be the ultimate definition in micro-managing. And it has nothing to do with act of killing or be killed. Its more about smart battlefield strategic planning. Good leaders never do the dirty work- at any time in any industry- or in any battle.
Why are the guys in yellow wearing helmets from the high middle ages? Did they not have a historian on this historical fiction show that was aired on history channel?

Can they do the same with the "diversity"? William Wallace got ripped apart for what? So that Tyrone can run around and do whatever he wants without any consequences? Turn an entire country into an African sh*thole? Where are these Scots?
Nope. Its just awful. Amazing fight were at seasons 1-2. It’s just a dump right there - they don’t fight in formation, it looks stupid, not historical and miserable.
Two sides fight against eachother inside me when se this. My norse (swedish) side who feel little bit machoproud ewen if it was my danish and norwegian siblings who raided england. In other hand a bit shame because to be fair nobody have the right to take other peoples land. But it was so long ago so I guess none of us have to feel guilt.
I love this. They were all on the same side here. Happy and full of life.
Nice
Did Bjorn look happy?
We shoukd continue the tradition..gets rid of the trash
The music, savagery, and passion gives me chills.

It's a good thing he called out for a shield wall! That came in real handy!
atleast it wasn't a flanking shieldwall
One thing I'll always say the shield wall was always done better in the last kingdom series... but I'll always love vikings!!
Last Kingdom is probably the worst show with Vikings to date. And that's saying something, considering how poor Vikings was 😂
Early Vikings had some nice shield wall battles.
However, this scene was nuts. Björn shouts "shield wall" which they form but right afterwards they start charging loosely so the wall is gone...
Its a TV Show, not a documentary or what ever. So... besides some nerds, who in cold hell cares?

Aethelwulf was a really good warrior, he didn't deserve to die the way he did
I agree with you ❤️, He fights on a Battlefield as good as he could and did not die. But then a little Honeybee bring's him to death ...
"Shield Wall!"
Then proceed to charge loosely so the shield wall is gone :D
What I consider interesting is that a +1000 years earlier Greek phalanx would have stood this kind of attack with ease. Would do you think?
I agree, a 1000 year old phalanx held elephants and armies away, they can’t even hold 50 men then what’s the point
A further thought on the Phalanx, perhaps maybe because it would have taken such a rigorous amount of training, drill, practice, day in day out. Not ONE man could turn and run or it would fail.

thats what happens when the show becomes "popular" , which turns an educational fiction into an enjoyment for the populi.

I think this show had the best battle actions scene that would even outclass movie scenes. They were epic.
Most of the battles are jokes. Its just people running at each other. None of the historical tactics they actually used. They call for shield walls which both the english and danes used historically but then they break shield wall formation immediately. The point of a formation is you stay in it.

It's respect to a loser they don't kill when they retreat (legends)
really? it's interesting, i noticed they did not harm them when they were retreating.
@@gorohuganiga4268 And how stupid was that? Leave soldiers alive that can regroup an attack you again

I can now see these Vikings were really brutal and savages against their enemies.
I have seen it three times.
And still waiting for more. Life changer 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Puts up a shield wall just to charge.. man wtf were they doing xD
Its funny because historians will let you know that all these shows and movies are so false whe it comes to battle.....they wouldnt fight in these huge mobs scattered around because it made it incredibly difficult to know friend from foe when you're surrounded by weapons
the saxons have colors though it made them vikings aware of the enemy
All they want is the die in battle with valor and glory

In the end we defeated them at the battle of Stamford Bridge. We drove the rodents from our beautiful land. Now they make furniture for us.
Vikings > Vikings valhalla
When leaders actually went to war and led their troops. Should be done today. Maybe they would think twice about sending our troops to war.
I think that's a wives tale- that notion that leaders wouldn't go into battle if they were the ones swinging the swords.
