Watch at 0:06 top right corner and can see one of the soldiers slip and begin to fall just before they cut away. If you slow it down you can see the look of terror on his face lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
XD
Whaaaaaaat 😂
He was hit by an invisible arrow! XD
How tf u notice that? 😭😂
I just realized bjorn is the only one that really got to fight or spend time with ragnar. He left the little ones and was gone most of their childhood
That's why in the scene when the boys say they would kill him if he ever showed his face Bjorns whole demeanor is just like "You don't know who you are talking about." Which isn't the boys fault at all but it is sad to think how different they might have turned out had they gotten more time with him the way Bjorn did.
@@KrazyKendra290 you are absolutely 100% correct. Very good assessment. I agree.
Ragnar had visitation every Wednesday and every other weekend
❤
William wallace has a slight edge on ragnar. Best movie 0:27 mel gibson
God Ragnar is so much faster than everyone else in this scene.
Cause he's the best fighter
He is the main character after all
@@user-yi9hz3or2t I feel like bjorn is thr best or they are atleast the same
@@danilapolesciuk4316 it’s rollo 100%

So while completing my first degree (History), I took a class that focused on Viking culture from Denmark and present day Iceland. They were actually not particularly skilled fighters based on the burial pits found in Scotland and northern England and regularly got massacred by the better armed and armored Saxon armies. What they did have was the element of surprise; they'd pull up in their low draft ships, raid a village or two and bolt before Saxon cavalry could show up. While the Viking warriors were undoubtedly brave, they simply didn't fare well against better trained and armored English troops.
I could rewatch Vikings & The Last Kingdom multiple times and never get bored
TLK is soo damn good! What I love about both shows is that they chose such strong actors! Alex as Uhtred and Travis as Ragnar they are just so believable!
Yeah, same with me.
The last seasons of both don't hold up as well as the first few.
@@sheepherder911last kingdom is great till the end , vikings falls off after Ragnar dies
@@Raws2000.That’s not true it arguably gets better.
The first few seasons of this show were some of the best tv ever made!
After Ragnar died, I couldn’t finish it, he was what kept the show amazing
@@boothedaniel92 Once Ragnar died, the show was left with a bunch of great supporting characters (Floki, Lagertha, Rollo, Bjorn, Ivar, etc.), but no good protagonist.
I finished the show recently. and yeah, it definitely feels like things go pretty downhill for the Vikings after the death of Ragnar. but it's still worth finishing in my opinion.@@boothedaniel92
@@boothedaniel92 As long as Ragnar was alive, I could tolerate the idea that not a single Scandinavian knows what a helmet is and that the saxons are wearing a mix between Roman and 15th century armor. After that? I think it was Lagartha's lesbian army in Matrix-style leather dusters that killed it for me. Just... no.
So far, I'm on season 4, to me the best fight scene was when Ragnar attacked Mercia.
When he ordered all his forces to attack one side, and the other side of the river couldn't do anything but watch.
I remember thinking that this strategy of splitting the army in two river sides was so idiotic, and then found out it was actually employed against the Vikings at one point. You deserve to be wrecked when that’s your battle strategy.
Dumbest scene in the whole series if you ask me. What were the Angles thinking purposefully splitting up their army in a stronger and a clearly weaker force with no way to reinforce between them? Then they make Ragnar look like a strategic genius by making him attack only one side like no duh, that's what any person would do, sane or insane, it's so dumb
It happened on real life@@julesdebeckker627
at 3:10 the first horse rollo cut just gets back up and jogs away lmaoo
Ya😅
i would never kill horse if i would fight in medieval
3:26 did anyone else want to see Rollo fight aethelwulf
Gotta love Ragnar and Bjorn fighting right till the end even after calling a retreat
They were fighting to allow a proper retreat
Vikings are true warriors, fight to the bitter end.
Seems to me that they were trying to break through to extract Rollo but gave up after they was the line of cavalry in the tree line preparing to charge at them.
@darrenharriott2120 oh I thought he was trying to get to rollo
The answer to every enemy tactic is "shield wall!!" I also like how Ragnar doesn't give a bs order like retreat or fallback, he knows his army is finished and needs to run.
I absolutely love this series. The only thing I don't like are the armour and helmets of some the Wessex Saxons. Some of the helmets look like 16th century cavalry helmets and some of the armour looks like weird Dungeons & Dragons scalemail. The only things they had then were chainmail hauberks and conical helmets with a nose guard. Also, too many of the Saxons in the series had armour - you only had it if you were super rich, important or an elite soldier (a huscarl or a thane). Apart from some of the Wessex Saxon armour - fantastic series.
But Wessex wasn’t Saxon it was Anglo. Mercia and Northumbria were Saxons. But I think such helmets were around in the dark ages inspired by late Romans helmets
All the armors aren't accurate
dude some armour and helmets are the problem? How about nothing in this show is even remotely historically accurate? The battles are just lame Hollywood brawls as usual, plots twists are ridiculous, ...
Stolzer Pfälzer Wessex was Saxon whilst Mercia, Northumbria and the other kingdoms were Anglo.
Ruben Heymans it’s not supposed to be “historically accurate” .. this has been known for years. Michael Hirst has said it himself. It’s a fictional Historical Drama series. I think the man is a genius by reading all the sagas and making an amaZing story out of combining so many famous figureheads from the Viking Age
The guy who said "Let's be having you", I love him xD
Bjorn was awesome just like Ragnar! Series was epic
Man season 2 was awesome.. Ragnar in his prime with most of his original crew. Aethelstan fighting alongside them. Wish they spent more time in that part of his life.
5:32 That dropkick tho!
4:05 I wish more fight scenes showed teamwork like that
I don’t know i just love how Torsten help put Ragnar on the horse mid battle
Ragnar was his Jarl his leader every man on his boats swore loyalty to him to put him and his family above them sleeves in those days your word was every thing in real life Ragnar's son Ivar was leading a retreat and one of his body guards stayed behind to hold them off knowing hed die but to give his brothers and leader a chance to live
0:39 ragnar face is say "stupid king
He said that bc Floki went with him and not Ragnar
@@samsobolev1179 still it was stupid from horik just to charge straight at them with no discipline or formation
@@youshallnotpass2156 I know that 😂 don’t gotta teach me about tactics. Iam a professional sword fighter Moviee and combat sword fighter
@JAMES PRESCOTT how so
@JAMES PRESCOTT I told him my hobbie and what I do from childhood.
Bjorn has the funniest run! He does it in the later seasons as well 😂😂
It is quite awkward isn’t it 😂
He's pretty quick for a big dude
Speed & technique = Ragnar
Strength & Power = Rollo
What a combo of a Brother
Finally a scene where they actually use cavalry units correctly
Lol. Those helmets though
you're mistaking for 500 years later. During this period horses were small, pony sized, used for moving men and goods but rarely directly in battle. Look at Hastings, the anglo-saxon horses were sent back, they fought on foot , even though the normans used cavaly, it was mostly skirmishing riding up to the angle saxons to throw spears then retreating, not barging their way into formed formations.
Bro its an series anyway
The shield wall is 90% of the times also uncorrect but in the end its fun to watch.
And people who dosnt know it ( Like the most dosnt know the stuff ) Dont will know that its wrong.
Except calvary was not used to blindly charge a shield wall...
@@Useaname Those helmets are 16th Century burgonets.
This kind of intensity and good choreographed battle scenes was missing in the latest seasons of Vikings; that's why the series went downhill!
yes they constantly switched between fighting and dialogues that bothered me that the fight was always interrupted
Yup and also showing stupid visions during the fights in the later seasons completely ruined it
There are so many reasons why the series went downhill. This show was one of the best examples of 'every season a bit worse than the last', you just watch till you hit your threshold.
@@AJKecsk season 4 was better than 3. Season 5 was good as well. Season was the only season that wasn't too good
not really that they went down hill its just that they keep making the army to big hard to plain out a good battle when you have hundreds of people in the shot where even know they are usually blunt week metal or soft wood weapons so no one gets heart to bad there's always the chance this persons going to step to far or jump back to fast and hit another person so they had to make them more simple
I liked this battle because it had the decency of showing vikings die in droves instead of just saxons being stupidly slaughtered
Was this meant to be a battle in York in 1066? My son has an exam next month. I'm looking for film of viking battles against Anglo Saxons.
@@debbiecurtis4021 Sounds like a great dad, I do not know myself but you might be able to find out if you search up the show as its from the show vikings if that helps
@@debbiecurtis4021 No, the 1066 battle was at Stamford Bridge, and it was marked by a lone Viking holding off the Saxons...for a while. I believe this was a depiction of the Battle of Edington.
Edington? So the King was Alfred (the Great) who drove the Vikings out of Wessex and whose grandson, Athelstan, united England in 939.
Currently watching the last kingdom on s4 and Vikings is still by far my favorite
I just freaking love the look on ecberts face as he sees his plan come together lmao
Lmao I was sitting here like “wtf do kings think about when they see shit like this going on in real time”
Now this is what I call a good fight/war scene
Pfft look at that man on the top right corner at 0:08
It’s not that good
If we think about it, the most physically typical Vikings that come to mind considering their most popular hair style and beards would be: Torstein, Jarl Borg and Erik (season 1)
Nice touch, 9th century warriors wearing 16th century burgonet helmets (the ones with the peak, fore-and-aft metal crest and large cheek-guards). Must have got them cheap off a Tudor era production.
If only Horik listened to Ragnar they wouldn’t have lost that many men. Ragnar was tactical and Horik was senseless.
nah they were tactically great but strategically they still needed to develop; i think if anything this would teach ragnar the importance of political centralization lol
Ragnar was a beast taking on so many Saxons alone I don't think he needed help Bjorn
in all honesty Bjorn Lagitha and Rollo were more of a liability wall they were warriors and in Lagitha and Rollo's cases some of the beast fighters from there Clans/Tribes they where his blood family you know your going to lose shield brothers especially in this point in history were a wood sliver can kill you so you had to be cold and cut your loses but with blood family bye bye logic hello throw my self on a hundred spears trying to save someone theirs no saveing
The show was bias asf, the saxons wiped out the Vikings in real life
@@Dpw20001 no they didn’t 💀
@@user-yi9hz3or2telaborate how I'm wrong? And the actor in your profile pic has Anglo Saxon ancestors lol
love this show, every time you watch you see a little detail you didm't notice last time, theres just so much going on at once sometimes.
The Vikings TV show is awesome love the fight scenes
Ah its so cute hearing Lagertha say shield wall lol
most badass character in the show, really?
@@Hs022 id say thats Rollo but we can disagree
@@killershootin6934 I’d say Bjørn
It is cute, yes, that's the problem, it isn't supposed to be cute, it is supposed to be terrifying and scary, but hey, feminism is mainstream in movies so, of course they have to add women in key roles
@@Alexander-dd4rg they were female viking warriors that do lead soldiers to battle in that era so i don't think its really femenism its accurate, and largetha is supposedly a real shield maiden in history and besides how vikings show "strong woman" is the way to go instead of constantly reminding the audience they are woman
That being said i absolutely hate it when femenists boast saying they are female every 5 seconds in a movie
Masterpiece scene, I love this series so much
The most amazing program I have ever watched, over and over again. Wonderful production👵🏻
Same
God this brings back memories!
Are you really that old!!??
The casting of this series was impeccable!
Juat finished season 6B and watching this is such a throw back ahha
Saaaaaaaaame
I feel so empty yet every time a look at a tb i rejoice
Ngl imo the fight between aethelwulfs squad and the mercians when he was saving the queen was the best battle in the series. Probably the best representation of small unit tactics in any media ive seen.
What an epic scene this is💪💪💪...and BGM super.....👍👍👍
Saxons never surrender🇩🇪🇬🇧
Ragnar reminds me so much of Baulder from the God of War games it’s like he enjoys every moment 😤
0:07, anyone else see that guy flat over? Had me crying in laughter 🤣🤣
Hilarious
Ragnar is the best fighter in the show tied alongside rollo
Nah Bjorn would defeat both of them he was absolutely unstoppable and everyone acknowledged he was the best of the vikings
@@konstantinosangelopoulos5367 then you don't know what you're talking about lol I don't see Ragnar getting killed by a cripple and ragnar was pretty much untouchable Bjorn wasn't he almost died in France and he got stabbed by ivar Ragnar was never in Bjorns situation getting shot and injured all the time he's the Walmart Ragnar and everyone knows it Ragnar and rollo are the greatest warriors in the show
@@konstantinosangelopoulos5367 Bjorn is much stronger physically but not quite Rollo's strength (Rollo lifted an impaled Arne on a spear, that's some beastly s**t) but Ragnar is a more skilful, all-round accomplished fighter.
Such complete chaos (which is practically always movie standard...) in real battles actually almost never hapened...
Every battle looks like a simply riot after watching roman legions
check netflix's german series: Barbarians. Absolutely amazing and brutal through and through. Centers around the conflict, or massacre of the Teutoburg forest, between the ancient germanic tribes and the roman legions. I wont spoil you and don't check the history around it if you don't want to be spoiled. Overall is is incredible how historical that series is.
A Roman legion would have stomped the Heathen Army and two would have thwarted William's invasion with ease.
@@longyu9336 Facts the Roman legions were one of the best armies of all time
@@mijanhoque1740 so? They were beaten by the Huns easily? They are only good against infantries. Against horsemen, Roman armies were nothing. Persians, Huns proved that.
@@oguzhantekden Except the Romans also started using cavalry as well, so what’s your point? There’s no denying they’ve lost a few times but the legions themselves were legendary badasses which managed to conquer the known world and create a large empire.
Both rollo and ragnar realise its trap but everyone doesnt.
I have run from the darkness for so long, only to find myself in a place darker still.
Imperials vs Stormcloaks
For fk sake bro lmao
Not even close
What?
This gentleman has the appearance of Sir Dugan .. the resemblance is remarkable...
Meaning, Dugan we have your twin ...
Rollo was bad ass in this scene
0:06 distracted to the person who slipped
The music score is soo good ✨✨❤️🔥❤️🔥
Memorable Battle. Bjorn becomes Bjorn Ironside💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Even when you hype these battle scenes , i cant accustome myself to the idea that their enemy always strike their shield first , this is so unreal .
the shield is the bigger threat then the axe spear or sword it can protect you as well as a shield brother pluse you can use the boss in the center to brake ribs or crush skulls get ride of the thing blocking you from your enemy first its why they tended to burn wood walls during big battles in the dark ages rather then just having there horse jump over them
3:29 NO NOT HIS BALLS
That soundtrack...
Did you know what is the name of the track?
@@marcelsobota8780 I'm not 100% sure but I think I found it for you

Never hesitate
See how.. Rangar hunting down to reach to his brother, after saying “Run” to others.. true brotherhood 💪 If bejon didn’t come, sure he will rescue the Rollo
Cheetham are one of the oldest Saxon family members in the UK. You can see our Coat of arms in Manchester.
Vikings and the last kingdom best war dramas
Best series all to watch
Yeah, I’m sorry, but the individual mano a mano scenes nearly always had the Viking victorious. The individual Saxon soldier was aat least as well trained as the individual Viking. Those fights would have been 50 50 at worst.
damn rollo is a beast
Historical inaccuracies aside like the Saxon troops wearing 17th century musketeer helmets, this battle was a lot like the scene from My Way when the Japanese after just having fought off a wave of Soviet BT7 tanks in the Mongolian desert, looks up and sees another line of BT7s and T26s roaring toward them. They knew that they were finished when that happened.
Lol at 0:47 you see an actor get his hair snagged by another actors' axe
Now that is how you use cavalry flanking manoeuvre's
"The gods are with us!"
Gods: And we took that personally.
Back when the battles weren't just scenes of fireballs rolling down a hill. God what happend to this series!
This is how wars should be fought instead of guns I get it's a different age now but that's what you call true honour and bravery with the sword or axe
Шикарное Сражение Впечетляет
Лучший в мире как для меня сериал, жаль что он так конечно грустно закончился((😢 А вот Вальхала такое себе не чем меня не удивил((Я бы смотрел это бесконечно старых Викингов. Уже 5 раз пересматривал все сезоны. Атмасфера у викингов намного лучше, чем в том же сериале Вальхалла. Это лично мое мнение.
Rollo, Ragnar, Torstein, Floki, Bjorn and Lagherta were the best fighters
Bro the best battle was the first beach skirmish, first time I saw a shieldwall in media.
Good battle but why are many of the Saxons wearing 17th Century Burgonet helmets.
Great show but I have to why are the Viking’s so much better at fighting than the Saxons. This is just not true the Viking’s suffered many heavy defeats they were not superior warriors.
I mean atleat in the season 6 alteast they showed the Saxons killed more vikings
errr what's with people every time they see the romans they say there shitter there everyone else. They see a spartan they say their shitter then everyone else. They see a German they say there shitter then everyone else. Same thing with the Vikings now. Gets a bit stupid. You think people realize combat skill plays a role when fighting in a battle. Like training plays a role in getting better. idk why people think otherwise.
Indeed I am a native Saxon from Westphalia and it's annoying..... and hurts me... because we are one tribe.. 🇩🇪🏴🙏
Well the show ain’t historically accurate so I wouldn’t take it for face value. The Last Kingdom shows Saxons as great warriors and fights are more even there.
No horse even trained war mount attack a shield wall at this time, the Angelsaxons would have come by foot. All the best from Northern Germany Ludwig.
Vikings here fallen lost captured
0:13 "let's be having you"
Esta serie cuenta algo inexplicable. Unidades bien pertrechadas,en su terreno ,mejor armadas y siempre pierden contra esta gente .
Because it’s inaccurate. The Vikings were far better outfitted than this
Классный сериал.
bjorns wwe drop kicl is gold
no archers, no javelins, one or two spearmen; the enemy cavalry cooda been much hindered by 'pulling' them into the woodline.
5:10 Bjorn goes from having 2 swords, to a sword and shield, back to two swords. :P
Bjorn is a boss who apparently switches his secondary weapon/shield on the fly. I imagine Bjorn swapped his second sword for a shield while the camera is on Ragnar. I think we do see Bjorn drop the shield when he turns to counter the second saxon who attacks him, and it would make sense he would pick up a second weapon from the ground since he's running to his father to save him, not trying to defend himself
Gotta say the saxons always put up a hell of a fight, i respect the vikings for there determination in battle to go to Valhalla, but seeing as how im a Christian, im with the saxons who years later i believe defeated the vikings at Stamford bridge, FOR GOD AND FOR ENGLAND!!!
Dummy
didnt really beat them, the vikings overall converted to christianity and mixed with the saxons forming england
@@XiuFeanaro6 Aye......you wanna trade insults with someone? I'm free.
If you go to Wednesbury and the A5 Lichfield area of the west Midlands you'll see the fields where the vikings were destroyed by the mercia saxons, it's fact.
And every time you say a day of the week basically you are calling on Norse gods. For example Thursday is really Thor’s day. Wednesday. Odens day. Friday friggs day.
In real life cav horses VERY VERY rarely would go near a Viking shield wall. They'd stop like they would when coming to any barrier. They'd not do what shown here at all. Though it's still super badass of a scene.
That's not true at all 😂😂 cavalry always breaks infantry that's the whole point of a charge unless you have pikes and tactical experience fighting calvary infantry will always lose
The Anglo-Saxons got the last laugh politically . Not militarily I guess, when you think about Cnut.
Actually they got it militarily too. I forgot about Stamford Bridge.
The All-seeing Bro... I just mean that the English got the last laugh because they won the Battle of Stamford bridge against the Norse, and it was the last know battle between the English and the Norse, notwithstanding all the other points you have.
The All-seeing They got the last laugh because they won, and the Normans don’t count.
You have to use too many words, I can make my point simply.. so that’s fair.
The All-seeing Winning the last fight is literally the definition of having the last laugh! Lol
Vikings are not the only ones that marked in the face of history. What about their other ancestors like the saxons, chatti and other germanic tribes most of them fought for justice they sometimes fight naked but not completely withoit armor wheras romas had armors like steel and they just charged it without protection. The people of germania for exaple onece a peace loving people became one of the most brutal warriors in roman or old history the battle of teutoburg for example.
0:06 Some dude on the right tripped lmao
SAxons wearing 16th Century Burgonet helms lol
Just place 50 archers , GAME OVER!
King Aelle best character
soundtrack at 5:00 is “Vikings Retreat”
Thank God our King Alfred defeaded them at last.... Greetings to all Anglo-Saxons from a native Saxon of Westphalia... 🇩🇪🏴🙏❤️

@@Norwaygang If it weren't like that, you wouldn't be a christian.
@@Norwaygang Skill diff, should've been better then.
>Anglo saxon early middle ages
>Wears a German Burgonet a renaissance era helmet
It helps the TV viewers know who’s who. In reality, Saxon and Viking all dressed alike with no state organized uniforms.
I guess I'm going to have to watch this show now?
Looks really authentic, apart from the cavalry, armor, weapons etc.... 😅
Ragnar on a horse reminds me of the gladiator on a horse in the arena . With Russell Crowe . Smile
Wait, I thought that the Saxons didn't use cavalry in battle 🤔
what's the theme in the beginning of the battle? it is epic
I won't lie, even though Rollo was a traitor. He fought insane here.
Ragnar❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
