What Was It Like To Be Raided By The Vikings? | Wings Of A Dragon | Chronicle 

What is like to be raided by vikings? I don't know. This video has nothing to offer in this regard. However if you're interested in old videos renamed it was great.

good documentary but the title is misleading as it has nothing to say about what it was like to be raided by the vikings. as for how much of North America he explored i don't think they went any farther than the southern bank of the St Lawrence River. from what i understand they loved to take their longships upriver and why risk the open sea when there was a spectacular river to explore right by l'Anse aux Medeadows

Here in Maine ,( coast) couple hundred years ago, ship builders took to building houses also.alot of craftsmenship in the finish.interior and exterior.I worked/ replaced a lot, back in my day in carpentry.and back then they only had hand tools.

I don't know when this documentary was made I visited this museum this very summer and is a bigger and nicer place, besides the building where the recovered Viking ships are they have a big yard with different things with some learning purpose like a small workshop for kids as well as a real workshop where you can see the tools and current work of the museum researchers, you can board on a warship replica made with the Viking construction techniques (maybe is the one they are building in the doc? :O) as well as trading ships and small boat replicas a really cool experience for those who like ships and Viking history. The Museum is near Copenhagen in Roskilde IDk like 30min.

Interesting documentary

Thanks 😊

Interesting documentary but subject had nothing to do with raiding. Misleading title!

I agree with Gunnar Eggertsson that, for the purposes of exploration, the Norse traveled further south than the settlement of L'Anse Aux Meadows. On the other side of the Atlantic, the Scandinavian Vikings traveled and explored pretty much everywhere that their ships could reach. All over Europe, deep into what is now Russia, through the Middle East, all around the Mediterranean and Africa, to the edges of Asia, they went everywhere. I don't see them just reaching Newfoundland and sitting there. They would have realized, just by their encounters with the indigenous Americans that they met, that they had reached a new land that no Europeans had ever been to. I think they would have been aching to explore further, and the natural course to set would have been south along the eastern seaboard. He went on to say he believed they might have ventured as far as Florida, and perhaps even into the Gulf of Mexico. Their ships were certainly capable of such voyages, and I agree with him there too.

stop changing the names and just reposting videos its getting super annoying

Scandinavians were Vikings and Vikings were Scandinavians.

Is the title of this video actually something people want to know ?

“Even Erik the Red was forced to build a church for his wife.” Welp, it’s good to know that men have had to deal with their nagging wives in all cultures the world over…

42:25 “Why would anybody bother to go further?” What a ridiculous comment. It’s human nature to keep going further. If you know there’s more beyond where you’re at why wouldn’t you go further?

I think u mean wings of an eagle when vikinngs cut open the back pulled out lungsso when the personbreathrd looked like

The title of the video is very inaccurate. Change it to what it really is. “Vikings, their boats and sailing”.

How and where did they poop on those ships?

My ancestors!

To this day, when I see footage of the NYC skyline with the twin towers still standing, I have to take a moment and indulge the pain. Some wounds just don't heal.

Not Hundreds of Years, try 1,000s

So, where did they get the milk from? You know the milk they supposedly traded with in North America... Did they bring cows with them from Greenland? This milk story doesn't hold water. I seriously doubt there was a disagreement over milk!

Actually non of the 900 Viking burials that were DNA test in Scandinavia where from Scandinavia they originated in Spain, Italy and Asia!

Downvoted for saying Vikings and Scandinavians aren't tied to a single ethnic identity. Saying there were non-Scandinavians who were Vikings therefore this isn't an ethnic identity of a common people to the exclusion of others is like saying there were Frenchmen in London therefore the English don't exist and the French don't either. It's always one race's identity targeted and deconstructed, replaced or just erased. The Scandinavians, for which I don't belong, have always shared this identity until not because it's literally being brainwashed out of them as it is with all other peoples from Europe whether there or diaspora.

This really wasn't about what it was like to be raided by the Vikings. My grandparents came from Sweden and i always wonder if some of my ancestors went viking and raided my ancestors from England and Germany and if they had children with them. Is there a way to see if you have DNA of people who went viking? My uncle has done extensive family history research and my great ( how ever many greats) grandfather, Cardinal Henry Beaufort, was the son of King Edward the 3rd. Henry was said to have had an illegitimate child with a woman and I'm the grandchild of Henry. From what ive read about King Edward the 3rd, a very large portion of the population is descendant from him

repackaged video with a misleading clickbait title. shameful.

OK

The title is click bait! Well done, but click bait nonetheless

70% Norse , 100% pagan .

This documentary is sooo wrong!!! I listened to many history lectures and Slavic Vikings are not Russia! How many times do people need to say that Slavic Viking did Kyiv Rus which is Ukraine! Russia is not Slavic and furthermore not created by Viking, Russia are Asians 🤦🏻‍♀️ and lives in their bubble up to 900s. I only watched 15 mins and it was such a waste of time. Learn History!!!

First to be raiding the comments

So white northern Europeans were light years ahead of other races
