Tour guide, Greg Weller.

Greg likes to portray a captured monk to explain his accent. ;)

Vikings converted to Christianity !! So the guide has all the right to talk about vikings and tell us about their village and their life!! God bless ✝️

@@l.f3464 The vikings were forcefully converted Spanish missionary's took their kids, raped the women and killed their men. Anyone who survived either converted, hid out or were taken as slaves. Much of what happened to them is also what happened to Native Americans.

No, not necessarily. We even have tools of a viking smith which allow you to cast christian crosses with one side and mjölnirs with the other side.

Us too.. Everyone should!

That's kind of what I was thinking.

This is just one station of 45-minute guided tour in Viking Valley, Gudvangen. Come for the whole tour :)

@@-deepoid-9158 let’s fucking do it

Maybe he was captured in a raid. 😋

and a christian too

@@andarupramudito9998 :-))

He's a captured monk :)

Grønland?

For vestlandet, mest pga land men de har absolut reiste for handelen også. ;)

He is very knowledge able, as all of our guides are, and every one of us has our knowledge field that we have more knowledge about than other. Greg is our Mytology, encyclopedia, and could probably give a lecture that coverrd all the 70 gods and goddess in Norse Mythology

That monk ha its story of its own. He is Gregory Tuck from Lindisfarne, and is the Chieftains scribe.

@@Xirque666 Captured after a raid no doubt, most interesting to hear.

Freya sounds better

Hey, thanks for your comment. Vikings had their own religion and beliefs. While they raided other countries, lots of new traditions and ideas came up and merged with old ones. For example Christianity became a "main" religion in Norway and other Viking countries. This didn't of course happen over night :)

4K Driving wow, very interesting didn’t know that, thanks for your response!

Because he took it from a Christian during a raid...

@@4KDriving They didn't become Christian from raiding or learning. They became Christian because at one point during the forced conversion they got two choices, convert or be executed. Please get your facts straight, and please read up on Norwegian history. It became a main religion because our first Christian king refused to accept traditions and beliefs, and because he would kill anyone who wouldn't become Christian. A Norwegian saying is that we were "converted with sword in hand", and for good reason.

@@Thorgrim_ Thank you for the correction.
