I read a story that Tostig and Harald Hardrada parlayed with a single rider before the Battle of Stamford bridge. The lone rider spoke only to Tostig and offered him his earldom back if he turned on Harald Hardrada. Tostig then asked what his brother would be willing to give to Hardrada for coming all the way to England. The lone rider replied, “Seven feet of English Ground, as he is taller than other men.” Then the lone rider went back to the Saxon host. Hardrada was impressed by the rider’s boldness, and asked Tostig who he was. Tostig replied that the rider was Tostig’s brother, Harold Godwinson himself.

Harold Godwinsson was a two faced injun giver ( not a man of his word) I absolutely believe the account of him pledging his support in any dispute over the English throne with William as he was only prepared to do so to get himself out of a tight spot after being shipwrecked. He was quite o.k. with pretending to give his word but after said he was tricked into it and hadn't realised Holy relics were concealed where he swore. His genes live on in bankers and real estate agents.

Frankly, I firmly believe background music is annoying, distracting, and unnecessary (especially for educational videos). I also believe people want to hear you speak and get information and not hear background music that they have to mentally filter out.

@@ForgottenIslands Really pleased someone mentioned Stamford Bridge. The East Riding, and North Yorkshire are both full of Viking history, as well as Saxon, Roman and Dark Age. York, Scarborough, Whitby, Howden, and Beverley are just a few of the places worth a visit if you're keen on this period in History. Stamford Bridge was host to a lesser known battle in 1454, the belligerents being the Percy and Neville families, who were both very powerful landowners at the time. Quite the history for such a small place!

@@marcus4046 Charlemagne is a GREAT IDEA. His empire is also the lands Rollo would raid after Charlemagne's death, later Normandy was given to rollo in the reign of Louis the Pious as the first daneguild, with promises of military aid from northmen by northmen and baptism of said northmen Rollo. This is why Normandy had adopted "french customs" and religion.then eventually inherited to Rollo's grandson WILLIAM THE DUKE OF NORMANDY 😎 as the "french" king of England. But his family really was more like a viking breed in recovery with the lands they owned lol. William the conqueror would even go as far as to beat a french king in a battle of which I can't remember the name of😅 in a dispute over MILITARY SUPERIORITY. It's all crazy man 😂 a time of warrior kings for sure. Cool stuff. Hope to see tons more on it 2 for sure.

The very important detail that the viking army was unprepared and largely unarmoured at Stamford Bridge is only mentioned in passing. I feel like it's kind of critical - the battle is presented as a pitched battle with both sides fighting at peak capacity (as if the viking army would willingly go into battle without their armour!), when in truth Harold himself was a very competent general and moved his army faster than Harald expected, catching him off guard, army separated and unarmoured.

Great beefy video! It's such an interesting energy to see two eras that I usually think of as separate being bridged together. It makes me wonder what the technical definition of a Viking is, or if vikingness is a spectrum. I wonder if Harald in his 20s would have liked living as a citizen under Harald in his 40s and 50s (would his past self approve of his king self?) Kinda reminds me of Dark Souls, where a lot of the bosses are past heroes who became corrupt.

Perfect video & research. No other channel can producde content with this level of Quality. My favorite scene was the battle of stamford bridge, where you saw a panorama of the battlefield.

@@HistoryDose I've roughly taken 4 history courses so far, but I've still suffered from drastic procrastination. Do you recommend just taking minimal amounts of history classes at a time to maximize my GPA-grade efforts?

I just finished reading "The Last Viking: The True Story of Harald Hardrada" by Don Hollway and these two videos talking about the Hard Ruler did help me clarify many things about him. I can say that these epic videos are really based on true story, congratulations!

Thank you for these. It's like watching the history Channel before they started running shows that have nothing to do with history 24/7. Keep up the amazing work

Gotta feel for Godwinson, he was truly a chad trying to do right by the people of Anglo-Saxon England. His mistake was in falling for William's trap in his razing of the countryside to provoke him to attack before collecting the might of England. Would've been interesting to see what would've happened if Godwinson prevailed and the Anglo-Norse connection remained more prominent than the Anglo-French. It's likely that the isles would've unified much sooner and Denmark/Norway/British Isles would've formed a power bloc instead of Denmark/Norway/Sweden. Who knows, maybe it would've kept connections to Iceland/Greenland/even Vinland more active, as these settlements were active around the same time.
