Old Floki | Vikings |

[@LongJohnLiver]

Wow that's a really good description of depression.

[@bruceakido6675]

Depression is not sadness.

[@LongJohnLiver]

@@bruceakido6675 Isolation, hopelessness, withdrawn from friends and family, feeling like nothing matters....yep, sounds like depression.

[@GrumpyCactus6699]

They didnt have depression 😂😂 Only in our weak world, full o weak people like youself ☺️

[@Youtubegroomskids]

That is what you took from a few lines, deperssion....seek help dude you are projecting.

[@LongJohnLiver]

@@KZbingroomskids why do you assume I'm not seeking help? Listen to his words. If his words don't say to you what they say to me then good, I'm happy for you. Depression sucks. Everyone is different. What he says here is going to mean different things to different people, and that's ok. People are allowed to take things like words in different ways and we can't really help doing that. It's part of the human condition.

[@nickmaille5951]

Floki, Master craftsman, monk, great friend, great warrior. I am glad that he didn’t get killed off.

[@shanedude91]

I would've never forgiven the show if they killed off Floki. It's bad enough Ragnar had to go.

[@Jeff_D421]

Same

[@Floyd119]

Only on season 2 episode 10 n Loki is a murdering crackhead who is currently betraying his friends so he definitely should get killed off

[@TheLittleSpoon1982]

Skarsgard family has produced some fantastic actors!!!!

[@rocketman9448]

He probably realised how Ragnar felt towards his end also, I truly believe though Ragnar was never the same after aethlestan died

[@jotas21]

Exacto.

[@JustLIkerapunzel]

Of course not! He was open minded ever since his first trip abroad and learning that there is another perspective on lofe than the ome he was taught from beginning and all of a sucden through that loss there was no one else anymore to relate to for him in his wordview. He never was actually becoming a christian but he also wasn't believing in viking gods for real. But he for sure liked the idea of being in charge of his own faight

[@WhoThisMonkey]

​@@JustLIkerapunzel He became a skeptic. Not a rational one, but a skeptic nonetheless. The path of the intellectual, one we should all aspire to tread.

[@aristidestorres4572]

[@elijahalbiston]

@@WhoThisMonkeyAlthough just because you are skeptical and intelligent does not mean you must denounce religion altogether. Always choose what you believe in carefully.

[@michaelamaral6206]

What a great actor!!!!

[@TristanDmarco]

This is probably what growing old feels like. Your generation, the people that you grew up with, all passing away, and you're one of the last ones left. I find this to be very depressing. I think that this is how my grandmother felt before her passing. Although she never showed it, I could sense it. I'm only 43 years old, and I'm already feeling the world is passing me by. I feel like our current world is not the same world that we grew up in, and it isn't. It is kind of depressing, at least for me it is. I've already lost a few cousins, gone too soon. But life and the world around us continue. It just goes on without ever a flinch... and we are left to mourne until our very own passing.

[@johnathanwhite7498]

[@Michael73971]

The casting on Vikings is World-class. The side profile of Ubbe in this scene makes you believe he is the son of Ragnar Lothbrock. Also the acting is Soo convincing, down to the body language! All Ragnar's sons perfect his likeness. #Vikings #Historychannel

[@Mr.Phoreskin]

It was somewhat divine

“I called to them, but I no longer heard their voices.”

[@davidchevez4690]

Organized religion drove the old gods away.

[@svefnhnuturthorgeirsson]

​​@@davidchevez4690Agreed. Organization takes a large chunk of the individual experience away. It gives you just a set way of how things are to be done instead of leaving it to personal interpretation. True freedom is living your own truth, not someone else's.

[@MrMegaDanila]

@@svefnhnuturthorgeirsson personally, i feel like people today take the whole "live your own truth" thing way too far and just choose to ignore objective facts.

[@MaZterExplodR]

Flokis character development was by far the most beautiful

[@gagestephens859]

Honestly could t have ended the series off any better, other than maybe it being Bjorn and Floki on the beach, but Ubbe and Floki just chillin it up and staring off into the sunset was just great. Finally some true peace and quiet after everything.

[@mrpres4774]

Ubbe just makes more sense hes the one who realise his fathers dream, the first son of ragnar that floki saw grow up and the last he saw before going to iceland

[@roylabella2434]

I enjoyed Floki....he walked between sanity & madness....reminds me of some Veterans I've known. I'm sure he was welcomed into Valhalla.

[@TheTreeofLiberty]

Men, we bleed, we sweat, we know hard work, we fight, we cry, we get back up after being knocked down, we know pain, we know love, we know loneliness, we know happiness, we know adversity, we know fear, we know strength and yet we all find a way to continue on. If you're struggling, we as men all do, we as men walk in darkness and eventually embrace it, understanding it's what makes us men, why we as men have built the world and destroy it. Keep fighting. You're not alone.

[@DivineLogos]

Floki is the most loyal character in the series.

[@JustLIkerapunzel]

Well he wasn't really that loyal when he killed Athestan lol

[@setantamcdaniels]

Not really tho lol

[@erinblue4043]

Rollo is more loyal, he's very loyal towards himself

[@MemeDluffy-nz4wx]

​@@JustLIkerapunzelhe killed the priest because of his loyalty towards his God

[@cgarcia4080]

Wish Floki had his own series. It truly upsets me how underrated many of the actors on this show are, this show's seriously given me so much perspective. Even watching this now, Floki's words drive a dagger into my heart. I can feel everything being described, it's truly opened my mind to the beauty of this culture. Makes me almost wish I could've lived during a time of such faith, we may "live" better then most of these people had, but imagine how much more meaning comes with a life like this. The absence of knowing anything, a world where everyone believes in God or Gods, in the world we're in now. It's almost like all the magics gone away, and we're left with beautiful projects like this. Left with a yearning for more, for something else.

[@thedukeoflife]

Who doesn‘t love floki…

[@gwc_garage]

I still hold some resentment for how he did aethelstan

[@Mkhonyovu]

​@@gwc_garagelet it go man 😂😂

[@scottmeager5919]

I hated him for ages after Aethelstan as well, but once he was tortured in that cave and lost his child, he definitely re-evaluated his perspectives on life, I started loving him after that. I easily forgive people even for really effed up mistakes. But only when they acknowledge they effed up and change for the better, then I met the past stay in the past. Because when people don’t reflect and change, the past usually cannot be left in the past, because they keep repeating or justifying doing stupid or disgusting behaviours. Floki became a very loveable wise old man in the end.

These show has the most outstanding actors, Ragnar and Floki the most....

[@88cryingwolf]

Depression is a hell of a drug

[@bgbraker]

Floki is the most important "forever" character/legacy of this series.

[@Mr.Phoreskin]

He represents the struggle of a certain type of person in this life. Similar to you probably. And to me. Troubled souls with more ability to see and less ability to understand.

[@femishabani8088]

Floki is a great personage in this Show !! Great Actring

[@artyomnoss6464]

This show will forever hold a special place in my Heart🙏 every time I rewatch it and it ends I feel this homesick feeling, like a part of me is missing. Almost like I just freshly went through a breakup! This show was a masterpiece!

[@WhoThisMonkey]

Masterpieces are without flaws. During the siege of Paris, Ragnar was stood on the wall in full view of many crossbowmen. Not one took a shot at him. This is just one example out of many.

[@xoledas8909]

Floki, last remaining character of the first Viking generation (Rollo doesn’t count as he betrayed so much he’s dead to me)

Nothing remains permanent on earth, old Folki

[@charlietwotimes]

That's how it feels to get old. I never understood older people when they said "This isn't the world I grew up in anymore" I always wondered why they didn't just keep adapting. It's because eventually as you keep changing you realise you've left everything that matters to you behind in those changes, piece by piece, until there's nothing left of you. You won't understand this until you're old and give yourself time to reflect but when you do the whole "changing with the times" bullshit comes crashing down. I love Floki's character because he's simultaneously as batshit crazy as it's possible to get but also deeply embedded in the purity of his culture. Amazingly well written character.

[@leightonmorton231]

Such a hard hitting scene, for me it’s almost like when Ragnar was killed ( for Floki it would’ve been Ragnar telling him “I love you” before he left on his final venture to England) that’s when Floki’s world started to crumble. Such a shame to see one of the greatest characters describe such pain

[@B.W.Broom-xc6gs]

Gustav "Floki" is an incredible actor, so underrated. He could do so much more with his talent. But I guess he's happy doing whatever he's doing besides acting.😢

[@hachimanjiro]

So sorry to hear about your Grandfather and Great Grandfather, I've spent time in hospital after a TBI (traumatic brain injury) and I saw people who suffered from Alzheimer's it was heartbreaking to see their loved ones visit and then having difficulty/unable to recognise them, so tragic and utterly sad,I wish you my best and hope that your doing well now 💙

Ube had my favorite ending in how the show finished the last episode. They all suited them perfectly. Ivar getting killed in the battle then crying and admitting he was scared, Vitserk staying in England and converted to Christianity, Bjorn died for his people and Ube wanting peace and quiet in a new land learning new things. Such a fantastic way to end the show. I'm really glad that Floki ended up well too. Especially the last scene of him and Ube sitting together and talking about life and Ragnar
