[@hugoakerlund5114]

ok everyone pls understand but. Viking isnt a race its not a word for scandinavian its a word that means traveler or seafarer, so anyone can be a vikingr/viking but not everyone can be norse

[@GnosticAtheist]

Yes but as good as all danes and norsemen on the british isles was viking at some point since that was required to even get there in the first place ;)

[@koro741]

these days nords r mix with arabs and Africans and I'm sorry about that

[@det9525]

Well thats not true. As a fellow Scandinavian this is what vikings mean: Any of the Scandinavian seafaring pirates and traders who raided and settled in many parts of NW Europe in the 8th-11th centuries. Vikings only came from Scandinavia. Not any other place.

[@Svanrige]

Det Vardt That’s wrong. Vikings were also active in Russia.

[@det9525]

Vikings were active in Russia because they travelled there from Scandinavia. They didnt originally live there. How stupid.

[@lukemerritt8276]

This was indeed a much-appreciated video

[@ThakIronworks]

i would like to see more of the bronze working...do you have more videos on that?

[@NorthworthySagasStories]

Me as well. Bronze is nice to work with.

[@LiquidBlackWolf]

is that Einherjer playing in between segments? And well... Vikings had kinds of beer.. because water was not a sure way to get clean drinking.. light beer was made.. most likely under 2,5% as drinking for both children and adults.

Talk about getting your minerals.

[@schaferhundschmidt1798]

I understand that; however, usually at the better Renaissance fairs in the US, they at least attempt some sort of accent (usually an English accent they saw on TV)-altough at the one on Waxahachie, TX, they actually said"Good Day M'Lord" with a Texas accent! Not one of your Scots even attempted a Scandanavian accent. BTW, I actually played a Scot at the Minnesota Renaissance Fair, I was told by actual Scots I sounded like "Scotty" on Star Trek....lol.

Schäferhund Schmidt shackape by chance?

[@sarahgray430]

Fake accents are usually inaccurate and rather silly. In fact, quite often when North Americans hear a genuine European accent they don't recognise it. I was married to a Finn, and people used to say he sounded like Norman Reedus from the Walking Dead (I don't know why) and they also called him a Swede from time to time, which he found infuriating. NEVER CALL A FINN A SWEDE, THEY DON'T LIKE IT!!!

[@NorthworthySagasStories]

I thought it was a good accent being I'm from the UK.

[@schaferhundschmidt1798]

@@NorthworthySagasStories The word 'act' is in Reenactment, something many reenactors forget. It's not very authentic for Scots reenacting as Vikings to have a Scottish accent. (Unless you are depicting several generations down the line where they became Scots) At the group I worked for at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival, they held workshops on accent, as well as language, ( prithee, methinks, and other Elizabethan words long since passed from the lexicon) though these were not as sophisticated as actual acting coaches. They really didn't have much help for a Scottish accent, so my character had a modern Glaswegian accent because I modeled it on Lt. CDR. Montgomery Scott, chief engineer of NCC-1701. 😁

[@NorthworthySagasStories]

Yes, I can imagine. That would make me cringe. That is cool and Scotty is a legend.

[@schaferhundschmidt1798]

It's bad enough that Hollywood thinks the Vikings had Scottish accents..... but here , too?!?

[@ayrstream1431]

Schäferhund Schmidt the reenactment group are Scottish volunteers, it was filmed in Largs, on the West coast of Scotland, scene of the last mainland battle between Vikings and Scots.

[@cesteres]

You have seen to many movies with Russian speaking English with Russian accent. However, real Russians speak Russian.

[@schaferhundschmidt1798]

Da, cesteres. At least in the movies, they had the accent correct; if the volunteers here will not even attempt a Scandanavian accent, I doubt their ever attempting Old Norse.

[@sarahgray430]

Check out Vikings on the History channel. Although not 100% historically accurate, many of the actors on this show come from various parts of Scandinavia. The most noticeable exception is a very large Canadian who just uses his normal Canadian accent.
