Spring Mood In Iceland - You Don't Find This Elsewhere
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 кві 2024
- This unusual update covers a few small small issues that I found hard to fit with my regular volcano updates but I had a great time making it. I hope you will like huh.is and if you liked the story about the viking clap, or Thunder Clap as it's often called, it's plenty to find on UA-cam, or how this developed from a little idea into a mass movement that took the football mode into a whole new level.
As for the guy who ruined the viking clap, it's actually a sketch from an annual satire TV show, broadcaster shortly before midnight on December 31st and 80% of the nation is watching. The sketch author in Jonesed Gnarr, the comedian that became the Mayor of Reykjavik from 2010-2014. Jón Gnarr is currently a candidate for the office of President of Iceland for the presidential elections in June 2024 and ranks number 3 according to polls.

Greetings from Iceland. Gylfi

😂 ..so we just got rid of him!
Thank You Gylfi, for a good laugh before bedtime! ❤😃
Welcome and thanks ❤😃
Poor guy! 😂 couldn't do a "Viking Clap" like everybody else!! Icelandic humour at its best 😁😅😂🤣🤣🤣
I laughed so much 😂 brilliant
"In Iceland they disappear you when you mess up the national football chant!"
😅
I love the " food tray on steroids" comment. 😂😂
I just learned about the "Viking clap" last week on a BBC show. It's cool to see it in action.
The outdoor swimming pool amongst the snow 😯 ..’Brrrilliant’, and ‘only’ in beautiful Iceland, I ❤ it 😂‼️ 🌟 👍😁
😁 thanks
It's lovely, but I can't figure out why the water isn't steaming. Could it possibly not be heated?!?!
It’s the best. They are all heated - except the tiny Kaldur pottur.
It’s the best. They are all heated - except the tiny Kaldur pottur.
I have fond memories, as a Welshman, of Euro 2016 - for our own boys’ performance and also for Iceland beating England!
A small note on Iceland’s performance: you mentioned they finished 8th but that doesn’t quite do them justice. They had a tough draw in the quarter-finals (last 8) and were defeated by host nation France, but the teams that do not qualify for the last 4 are not further ranked - thus Iceland was no more 8th than it was 5th.
Great video, beautiful drone shots and much respect for the Icelandic any-weather football fans!
We have baseball and snow here in Denver. It's pretty funny watching other people's reaction!
Thanks for sharing and welcome 😃
Icelanders...a hearty bunch to be sure. Have to be a die hard fan to sit out in the open and watch/cheer on your team. Brrrrrr🥶 Love the little Icelandic horses...have seen a couple of their races on YT...they have that cool little gait called a tolt (?)...like an overdrive gear 😂 Thanks for the update and the links. 🤗
Bet it even beats football season in Buffalo NY 🤣
That's why we northern country residents (I'm 🇨🇦) bring heated seat cushions, heated vests and heated gloves.
And coffee.
Lots of coffee.
Nice Scenery and those beautiful Horses again !!!! I had my own weather experience today. That solar eclipse over our town and state. Was kewl that after 3 pm was pitch dark for several minutes then bright sunlight.
As a woman from the US whose DNA results said my long ancestors were Nordic, I’m thrilled to learn about the Viking salute.
Icelanders are 50% Irish.
They landed on Iceland and there were no women. So they sailed down to Ireland and took the women by force.
That is why they are 50% Irish ancestry.
@@bricktop7803 As a Dane I have to disagree with you on that statement 🙄
You got us all laughing - thank you so much! "we got rid of him". Thank you for the Horses, they are so beautiful! Stay Safe and Be Well!!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks :)
I audibly laughed when you said, "He couldn't get the Viking chant right, so we just removed him."
😂😂
As always, awesome video!
Thank you!!
Gylfi thank you again for a wonderful and most entertaining episode on what is happening outside of the Volcanic eruptions. Much appreciated buddy, take care and god bless you 👍😇🙏🇮🇸
Many thanks and I'm glad you enjoyed it🇮🇸 with greetings from Iceland
Combination of a "warm welcome" and "spring in Iceland" require a specific sense of humor and a warm jacket 😅
Beat beat clap: reminds me of the the beginning of We Will Rock You (Queen)
👍 since you mentioned queen :) ua-cam.com/video/iDPerqAw-Lg/v-deo.html
What fun !! More terrific footage to check out. That heated pool seaside along with the snowless soccer fields - Lush ! With a stadium (crowd) wave - you can wing it with off - timing - No winging it with the Viking Clap. Altho, his attempt seemed studied and genuine.
It's good to hear your sense of humor taking over the channel again, Gylfi. You always crack me up when it does.
That’s me there with no sense of timing. The fact that he was removed reinforces my discomfort with crowds. I am not afraid but rather the commotion rattles my brain.
Only 6 days until I visit this wonderful country for the 8th time. As always cannot wait to visit the Volcano Ireland if Iceland 🇮🇸❤️ Great drone footage of the Hofsos Swimming pool in the snow. Great place to have a warm swim in the cold weather.
They got rid of the guy who couldnt do the chant haha
magnus magnus magnusson...
a name to live in infamy
He's already a celeb here in Iceland :)
😃 welcome
Hi Gylfi, Sending you regards from very damp and windy England! Funny story about the guy that couldn't HUH on time! 🤣🤣 Stay safe n well al on the Beautiful Volcano Island ICELAND. TFS, GB :)
Such lovely Icelandic horses! So nice to see them, Gylfi! I’d love to see some Icelandic sheep, too.
HUH! That poor fellow! Famous for the wrong reason!. Thanks for the laugh. Always needed! Spring in Iceland is very much like spring in the Canadian Prairies! Wonderful and sunny one day the next 20 cm of snow. Safe travels my friend!
I felt a bit sorry for the guy who couldnct get the Viking clap right ...he was trying hard and doing his best! Bless him.
All so interesting, as always! I'm looking forward to your chat with Shawn Willsey. Travel safely, G.G.!
Thank you for the interesting info about other aspects of Iceland. It is not just volcanos.
Thank and welcome :)
LOL!! What an awesome humor. Freaking Viking humor… thanks for that. Your vids are the best.
Glad you enjoyed it 🤗
Your videos are ALWAYS so beautiful and informative, AND I loooove your sense of humor 😂❤❤❤
Thank you so much ☺
Well done, discipline at first!! I’m knew many things now from Iceland through you Gilfy, Thank you for update!🙌😍
Thank you, this was very interesting today. When I visited Iceland in '72 I stayed with a family whose son was a professional football player. He came back from playing an International match in Denmark while I was there ...
Thank you for the update,love the heated football pitch,stay safe and warm😂🙏🏻
Thanks and welcome :)
Stunning footage as always. I drove all over trying to get just the right horse photo (very happy with my results), thanks for sharing yours. ❤ This video made me laugh out loud several times. 😂 I’m always watching for the next one.
Thank you for the update Gylfi. It is much appreciated.
My pleasure!
My pleasure!
😂😂😂 Thank you for your very amusing video Gylfi. I love your sense of humour!
Thanks a ton :)
Great respect to Iceland, both for the heated playing surface, and for players and supporters coming out in Icelandic spring!
Thanks for the beautiful video 💕
My pleasure 😊
I never played football in the snow, but rugby. Trick was land on top of the one being tackled not the one underneath the tackle ;-)
Food tray 😂😂 hey, those food trays are better than the pot hole filled “soccer fields” in the parks near me!
Always love your humour in your fantabulous posts! 😂
How cool about the soccer team and everyone supporting them. Then, proceeds used to benefit soccer players all over Iceland! The heated fields and pool are such great inventions! Love the horses too!
All the best Gylfi. I look for your videos everyday!
A little offshore action, a little Bardarbunga action....
Will mention it in tomorrows update
What a lovely, fun video - thanks, Gylfi ☺️
Thanks so much! 😊
Great to hear about the 'trays on steroids' football pitches
Welcome :)
Wonderful video as always! Thanks for the info on the Viking chant and the football fields. As always love the horses and other wildlife. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
Glad you enjoyed it: ua-cam.com/video/iDPerqAw-Lg/v-deo.html
I give you warm greetings from the Netherlands. We had 26°C a few days ago. Way to warm for the time of the year. Today was a normal 12°C but the coming days will be warmer again. It will all be corrected next week.
HUH!!
Thanks for another wonderful video, chock-full of great imagery and information. And more power to the national football team!
Have to feel sorry for the fellow who just couldn't get the rhythm of the cheering, though. He reminds me of a woman I knew once, who couldn't dance. I told her it wasn't that hard, you just had to move to the rhythm. But she couldn't even tap her foot on the floor to the beat of the music. Some folks just don't have that ability, apparently!
As always, a great update. My Nordic ancestry woke up with hearing that “Huh!” and now they’re all in my head pestering me to go back and visit the Homeland. Well, that and I want to see the volcanoes. And the waterfalls. And the sheep and horses. And the endangered Polar Swans. 😎
When I see the giant stone fjords of Norway and the iridescent hills of Iceland.. I’m convinced dragons once flew there.. maybe still do 🙂
Awesome!
Iceland, yes they have some volcanos but, it's still iceland!
Thank you, Gyfie, very nice habits! Have a good time! Greetings from Vienna!
Thank you! 😃
ROFL "the man who ruined the viking clap"! Thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
I love how you d9 your information on this beautiful island. I could listen to you all day long lol
Glad you enjoy it 👍
"What is this food tray on steroids?"
You're a very funny man, Gylfi!
"huh" in America is a sound he make when we don't understand something, but the "u" is short, like in the word "butter" :)
More Icelandic horses, lol! I had 2 for many years, one was imported from Iceland ❤️, the other from a Canadian breeder.
I'm actually collecting horse footage for a long video with them only :) will be ready this summer
Geothermal heating...
And in Piteå they had to ask for volunteers to come and shovel the snow from the footballfield this easter.
Wow! I love this! Yay for Futball and the cool Viking clap! 🤗🥰
Impressive clapping.
I enjoyed the Football (soccer) game played in the snow. The money going into youth sports will pay off. Back in the day when I was a kid our local NHL team the Detroit Red Wings put a lot of its resources it won winning championships into local youth teams. Our current Captain is from the first generation of that era. It’s hard to watch a game without hearing about a local player on the opposing team. Our former captain and all around legend Steve Yzerman didn’t trade durning the deadline because of the amount of talent in our farm system teams in smaller cities in lesser leagues. Some would be playing in the professional league in any other team. Investing local talent is the way to go, btw that Viking Chant is on par with the Māori chant in terms of being awesome & intimidating.
Thanks for sharing this interesting and possibly the most Icelandic thing I’ve ever heard of. Heated pitches not all indoors but using the geothermal heat to keep the fields useable all year. Such an extreme country climate wise, geologically & geographically. Yet it’s a beautiful place naturally of course but also it’s city planning the efforts to reforest & use it’s natural resources in a organic and technologically sustainable way. Not to mention for people like me with an interest in volcanology it’s
an absolutely unique spot on the planet. A hot spot under a mid ocean ridge.
I like cultural comparisons because I’m discovering so much about Iceland since the 2011 & 2021 - 24 eruptions. I’m going to drop some local references that only tangentially have anything to do with the subject.
In US college football which is huge the Michigan vs Ohio State game is the last of the season as the two teams are legendary rivals. It also often determines playoff position who plays for the championship and who plays in a second tier playoff game. It’s not quite as dedicated as Iceland where heated fields are needed just to play. However 110,000 fans will brave the late November Great Lakes gales if the game is played in Michigan that usually includes snow squalls.
The NFL Buffalo, NY Bills are one of the few teams left to play in an outdoor stadium. They are also located to get massive lake effect storms during the first cold blast. The past two seasons games had to be moved or postponed due to storms dropping 6-10 feet of snow. Buffalo is a small city by large American city standards but it’s held onto its team with developers wanting to move US Football into Canada and Toronto being two hours away. Toronto doesn’t get 6 feet of snow in a day and 10 over a 3 day storm. Buffalo is just in the right place and football season gets into playoff mode as mother nature rolls the dice on when the first storm rolls though. If it’s early then no big deal if it’s not here until Christmas we get a white hurricane. Though not all of us are downwind of the lakes fortunately. Some of us are in the sweet zone far enough downwind that only a few inches fall. Those same “warm” unfrozen waters of the lakes creating blizzards downwind keep that -20 below f or about -30 below c to the west and south of the lakes. 0 degrees f is cold or -17 c but I pity Chicago and Minneapolis which get -20f or -30f with wind howling out of the Canadian Prairie uninstructed.
Though on a different note we had a record warm winter that’s off the charts. Even the mountains of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan which avarage 200+ inches or 500cm got half that and it melted in a month. The lakes are so large they act like inland seas and make their own weather. A lack of cold weather except one extreme burst had about two weeks of good winter weather before the season collapsed.
Weather is getting more extreme we didn’t get a major Arctic outbreak & mid-latitude cyclone until January. The later winter hits the harder it does. Winds on the open water of 70+ mph & 36 ft waves on Lake Huron. Neil DeGrass Tyson has a pod cast on how this years flip from winter La Niña to summer El Niño this year broke every single long term weather forecast prediction model there is.
The area about the size of Tennessee has a population of 250,000 a big city is 20,000 with 60,000 being a metropolitan area. Winter sports keep the economy alive after excessive logging and mining in the early 20th century led to boom and bust. The university towns are doing fine but the small rural communities have been devastated economically. Thankfully federal funds for small businesses have been made available but it’s a little late for the layoffs of employees.
It’s a shame that the mining and timber companies didn’t leave more nature behind and invest more in the cities. It’s one of the most beautiful regions of the US certainly the most remote a 12 hour drive from Detroit or Chicago to the northern tip. However that’s not such a bad thing having the wilderness recover and the areas too rugged to be logged mostly turned into parks. While over 50% of the state is forested after 90 years of restoration & preservation.
I find it cool that despite the hard times when the mines were run dry during WW2 & farming proved impossible with the rocky acidic soil in most places the Scandinavian population stuck it out and became Yoopers. A reference to the heavy accent some in rural communities still carry. I think I mentioned before that Washington Island on Lake Michigan has the largest Icelandic settlement in America. A local spent his life and a lot of local trees to build a copy of a 10th century Norwegian Church.
The future looks brighter for the region there’s more nickel than Russia or Canada in the region as well as copper, uranium & Gold. Good luck getting uranium mining going or open pit gold mining that uses arsenic next to 20% of the world’s fresh water. Though establishing US and western supply chains for better production if done responsibly is a good thing. The state level environmental watchdog organization has done well managing mining in sensitive areas. The state’s technological university is located in the region and has leveraged its expertise and has a fast growing technology sector. If Michigan’s Upper Peninsula becomes a part of a high tech supply chain once again as it was until the late 20th century. There is well educated local talent has already begun building the base for a high tech economy in parts of the UP.
Some really great innovative ideas have been developed from regional developments & scaled to fit the local needs & economy. The use of abandoned mines as pump storage facilities using excess grid capacity at night to pump water up a mine and during the day reversing the flow through turbines to provide more electricity a need and in a clean environmentally sustainable way.
of.
Thanks again for the content Gylfi. I would imagine that it is a very powerful experience in person. Even on video it has an effect.
Hi Gylfi, sure miss out on the front lines of eruptions at Sundhkar & Grindavik. Not many have been able to keep a drone up over the volcano area (too windy). Just the same, thank you for the Viking enlightenment, and that poor soul who couldn't get the "Huh" in its perspective order ( lol). Cheers, stay safe Y'all, greetings from NW Arizona USA!
I send you some warmth from the Rhine Rift Valley were we had our first “Summer Days” with over 25 *C up to 30*C …and Sahara dust…
Should send some of the arctic Alaska folks to learn about heating with geothermal energy. Very interesting the field is heated.
Thank you for a very nice video.
I love the Viking Clap.
Welcome to join us :)
My state’s football team is the Vikings! I’m very aware of the Viking chant and clap! So good to see it is used by Iceland! 🥰 👏
Viking clap guy made my day. 😂
Fantastic :)
The store on that webpage is really great!
Thanks Gylfi the wife and I really enjoyed that. Take care.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanx Gulfi ! always enjoy your video "s
Always welcome
We all have wonderful memories of Iceland beating England..
Wonderful achievement and the clap was awesome.
Gylfi, I have a few friends in the south that would disagree with you on which is better 😂😂 GREAT video!
Great to see Icelanders celebrating, with all that's happening with earthquakes and volcanoes. Stay safe buddy 👍😉
Enjoyed your video as always, and your sense of humor. When I was there back in the 1960s, they told about taking visiting soccer, sports teams on pony treks. Thought of that when I saw the horses. After the pony rides the visiting players were too sore to compete in top form. Do they still do that or have visiting teams learned???? All's fair in love & sports!! Greetings from Ohio.❤
Food tray on steroids 😂😂😂😂
Welcome :)
Great video 🙂
Greetings from Gimli Manitoba Canada !
Love the town...a former Winterpegger here! Too bad the Icelanders that settled, couldn't find a way to create geothermal hot pools! But the lake is wonderful in Summer! One of Gylfi's videos eluded to how Gimli was established by fleeing Icelanders from the massive volcano eruption around 1890 ish.(Too early in the AM for me to remember the exact date) Not sure how old you are, but I remember Gimli Goose and the Gimli glider!
Thank You
You're welcome
Very cool
Iceland has shown us some great teamwork back in 2016, looking forward to new succes
I hope so too, but it's way harder now, to many problems
LOL
And there was me thinking that Sufism was becoming popular amongst Icelandic football supporters ...
I’m from England if we get a couple of flakes of snow, a light covering, schools are closed, travel is disrupted and football postponed..
👍🙏>>>💚~~~ THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE(HUH)!
👍 huh
HUH, kinda like the Hakka of Iceland.
👍 welcome
Yes, gives me chills the same way a good haka does! 🇳🇿🖤
That looks like a cold game to play
Yes those guys are used to this :)
not as cold as the swim at 5:05
Suourbotnur had an EQ yesterday and today.
Warmed foot ball field! Serious folks and undercover practice!
The viking clap very effective spooky!!
developing future talent seems like a pretty good investment.
Yes it truly is ☺
Yeah, we used to have some guys in the army who could just not march in step! lol
Indoor football fields are the way to go. What about indoor swimming pools? Would have thought Iceland had many great swimmers? lol
So interesting! Felt sorry for the guy lacking rhythm 😂
They do play football 🏈 here in the snow sometimes.
Yes and good at it
Go heavy on the wicked humor w Shawn. His origional following found much discovery in the excitment he put online. He and I are from the same lightly populated area and inevitably limited mono culture. His style imo is flat and didactic. His listeners qould enjoy new experiences badly. American wests 'inner mountian region' humor joke style usually 'pokes fun' at someones cost. But sofisticated sarcasm is nonexistant. Delights me now long lived in the UK. Where indirect taking the 'mick out' is a refined art!
Lock him up! 🤣
Reminds me of my first soccer match....lol....I was 12 or 13. It was 45 degrees (Fahrenheit) and there was a steady drizzling rain. I went on to play into my 20s.
2016? Was that really 8 years ago?? Ooft I'm getting old 🙃
Beztu kvedhjur Gylfi minn! alltaf jafn gaman adh få nyjar myndir frå thjer. Gangi thjer allt i haginn, Billi.
Takk Billi minn, gaman að heyra í þér og ávallt velkominn :)
You got rid of him because he couldn't do vikings Clap, 😂 did you send him to Svalbard, best regards 😉
Svalbard sound like a good place for him
they dosen't stop the match due for the snowstorm !?
No way :)
Icelands Eclipse will be August 12 2024 We had 90 percent where we live in Pennsylvania
I want to know what they eat as snacks at the game.
Am I missing some joke….? Or this is really Spring in Iceland…?
Officially yes
@@JustIcelandic to me it’s difficult to imagine even… But of course the north of Iceland is really north….
