I'm American and thought Rhod did amazing, but Norwegians are just different (insane). This was amazing. I'm only 7% Norwegian but a great deal Swedish. I'm going to try this out at work (customer service).

@@FredrikSkievan well actually in the UK show, the task started 10 seconds after reading it, so, they had 10 seconds to come up with the idea and close their eyes before the 10 seconds are over
Pure grit, determination and sportsmanship. The best Norwegian world record ever. Well, you‘ve never see Karsten Warholm casually stop for a McFlurry in the middle of a race, right? 😂
@@Afrodafro Kan du bevise det? For når Bård blunker etter nesten 3 timer utenfor sitt eget hus så kan en skimte en liten tåre som renner ned kinnet hans
Thats like forklaring chinese to English and saying "they sound familiar" im Norwegian and i dont understand nor speak finnish. Norwegians understand swedish and Danish quite easily as the language are simular. But finnish isnt.
@@FredrikSkievan I'm pretty sure The assignment just says "Do not blink. Longest time win" so it does. It was what the winner of this assignment in Denmark did. But okay we don't see them read the assignment, so we cannot see in this clip if they formulated it in a different way in Norway.
I originalversjonen av programmet (Taskmaster) var det heller ingen som kom på den løsningen, men de ble gjort oppmerksom på at de kunne ha gjort det i sendingen. Det virker jo ganske åpenbart, men man blir nok stresset når man står oppi situasjonen og er under tidspress (i originalversjonen hadde de bare 10 sekunder til oppgaven startet). Vinneren i originalversjonen klarte forresten bare litt over 7 minutter, og det så ut som tortur, så jeg ble veldig overrasket over at flere av deltakerne i den norske versjonen holdt ut så lenge som de gjorde.
Whenever they show Rhod Gilbert’s attempt in compilations I point out how feeble it was compared to this, the most stand-out performance from any ‘Taskmaster’ task anywhere.
@@dalilarammstein8738 when I read that one guy on a Norwegian Taskmaster managed to hold his eyes open for 2+ hours I was skeptical but intrigued, after watching the task and seeing that everyone is seemingly great at this I have a strong suspicion that it was staged.
I feel like there’s no way those timer numbers are accurate. If your eyes were open for almost 3 hours they’d be so dry it would likely cause permanent damage. Like it’s just not feasible
Eh ja. Helt vanlig det med TV-konsepter. Se f.eks Idol og Norske talenter, ja sågar Nytt på Nytt. TV-Norge har nok betalt for dette. PS: Bare store bokstaver er teit.
for people wondering why he doesnt have the world record its because this is tv editing. you go blind if you dont blink for that long, its amazing you idiots believe everything you see on tv. i mean no one is even tearing up. you try not blinking be holding your eyes open and see how much tears that will generate.
do you watch the show? its unlikely to be faked as they take the tasks very seriously. the production would have full tapes of the task which they could submit for the world record. its likely he isn't tearing up due to his contact lenses which have an added benefit of preventing the eyes from drying out
@@godfearingturtle I dont think you understand what comedy tv means or is. they take the tasks in whatever way they are instructed to take them. you must be quite a young person to be this naive
@@godfearingturtle also him having contact lenses just further proves the point, it is actually very dangerous to let your eyes dry out while wearing contacts and people regularly go blind this way. contacts dont prevent eyes from drying out, they make eyes dryer. this is why its dangerous to sleep with contacts and keep them on for too long, eventually you go blind.
@@mija1110 thanks its nice to be called young. This is a werid flex to believe you are an expert on eyes. I choose to take Bard's word that he didn't blink fot 2 houes 47 minutes and that it wasn't faked or cheated. He did mention on the full episode that he saw double for a bit the next day.
I don't understand shit. Even if I'd understand the language I'd probably understand shit about what's going on here. Why did UA-cam recommend me this?
Se episode 4 på Dplay: bit.ly/KongenBefalerDplay
Bård slo verdensrekorden!!!
Gratulerer med verdens rekorden 🎉🎉
I've never before seen someone accidentally break the world record and than hear him say "I hope that's good enough".
It’s fake
Norwegans are another kind of breed
@@daintydalmatian he's just wearing contacts, so it's more cheating than fake
"don't blink"
Norwegians: "Ok."
Absolutely insane. All of them. The longest on the UK show was like 8 minutes
Yeah what are norwegians even???
@@kawaiilotus Bad at finnish, i guess.
One of the best/crazy things I've EVER seen...
And Rhod was in pure agony by that point. WTF the genes hwere
@@Alekpowah what? Finnish? Theyre norwegian
I'm dying on the fact that he acts like a blind person on the drive in and nobody questions should he be driving! 😂
and why would they question him? If he was blind, you really think he would be able to drive to the drive in? or any place for that matter.
Ye, good comment :)
Finnish person here. Vegard's Finnish gibberish sounded just like how I hear Estonian.
Yea it was too fast. If he would just slow it down a bit, it would be great fibberish.
This has the same funny vibe as the English version, I’ll definitely be binge watching this as well
I swear. Goes to show how terrible US did at recreating this gem of a show. These guys got it right
@@ays162 sweden got it right too 👍
It's great. Definitely the best Scandinavian one and on a par with the British and New Zealand ones.
That was incredible! I am genuinely in awe! I thought Rhod Gilbert's aattempt was good, but Jesus christ you people are mad! Absolutely astounding!
Im watching that (rhod) episode now, reminded me of the norwegian one(which i saw first) 😂
This show is fake
I'm American and thought Rhod did amazing, but Norwegians are just different (insane). This was amazing. I'm only 7% Norwegian but a great deal Swedish. I'm going to try this out at work (customer service).
Even with subtitles this works so well. This version is probably the best after the original.
So Bård is the only one who would have survived the entire Doctor Who "Don't Blink "episode :)
Weeping Angel: "why do I hear boss music"
I DIDN'T THINK OF THAT OMG!
Just blink one eye at a time
@@RutgerMwoan yeah, but the task was not to «BLINK» and when you are «BLINKING» one eye at the time, you are technical Blinking.
That episode immediately came to mind as I was watching this!
Absolutely love the guy who just gets up and leaves half way through the task 😂
He's one of the two guys who made the viral "The Fox" music video back in 2013, with over 1.1 billion views now! Bård Ylvisåker, who's a part of Ylvis:) And Vegard is his brother, and the second member:)
Guinness World Record of not blinking: 1 hour, 5 seconds
Bård: 2 hours, 42 minutes
Fake, it’s acting
@@daintydalmatianActually, he had lenses
He beat the world record... sick

No, I find Olli very attractive too, though not as much as Jeremywells.
@@icturner23 I feel that 😁
I still prefer Olli over Jeremy, though
If Weeping Angels ever make it back on Doctor Who, this guy must be put on that episode and save the day.

Han slo den trur ej
Rekorden er 30 timer
Hvor fant du den rekorden?
Come on !! He deserved a standing ovation !!
2 hours and 47 minutes. Goodness me that's long. Though I guess they could've just kept their eyes shut for that long.
Yeah but the rask starts as you finish reading it and you can’t read it with your eyes closed
@@FredrikSkievan Yes but it wouldn't count as a blink if closed after. Blinking would be opening them up again
@@FredrikSkievan well actually in the UK show, the task started 10 seconds after reading it, so, they had 10 seconds to come up with the idea and close their eyes before the 10 seconds are over

where can you watch full episodes online? (preferably with subtitles)
Any place with unrestricted internet access I'd imagine, not sure about the subtitles though!
They are all here on UA-cam with great subtitles (explaining aspects of Norwegian life and with the occasional endearing error).
I speak neither Norwegian nor Finnish. The Finnish gibberish part didn't sound different from the rest of the video to me lol
Finish and Norwegian aren’t even at all similar 😭
Thats like forklaring chinese to English and saying "they sound familiar" im Norwegian and i dont understand nor speak finnish. Norwegians understand swedish and Danish quite easily as the language are simular. But finnish isnt.
I can't speak either but they don't sound similar at all.
All they had to do, was close their eyes and not open them for however long they want.

Hvorfor ikke bare ha øynene igjen? blunker ikke da.
🤔
Ok, dette er stor hjerne tid
Det er jo bare et langt blink, så jeg vet ikke om det kan kalles å ikke blunke
Tenkte akk det samma. Hadde jeg vært der hadde jeg bare lagt meg på boret og sovnet.
Et blunk er jo praktisk talt bare at øynene lukker seg fort og åpner seg igjen så jeg vil tro at det å holde de igjen ville gått som godkjent
WHAT! 2timer og 47minutter! Hvordan er det i det hele tatt mulig?!Han holdt jo ikke øynene sine engang!
Det er fake
@@daintydalmatianNope
Is it only me that also tried to not blink?
Only me who had my eyes open the whole video? Without even thinking of it lol
How tf were these guys so much better than the English?
Hvorfor ikke bare ha øynene lukket fra før av
Nettopp det tenkte jeg også når jeg hørte oppgaven ble lest opp. Tviler på at jeg hadde giddet å vinne uansett.

How do you just not blink? I’m genuinely baffled by this.
