Yes, please read them people and disregard this guy’s rendition because it’s complete rubbish. I don’t know where this crackpot got the story from but he sure hasn’t read the saga. He’s got characters All mixed up and his storylines are completely made up. This guy shouldn’t be allowed to tell stories unless he adds a disclaimer that they shouldn’t be believed as real in any other way than being really fake.
What a heroic saga! I listened to this because a Norwegian friend has a cat she has named Lodbrok. I looked up the name and think it is perfect for a furry cat. Then I wanted to know more about Ragnar.
Eggel the bald was seven feet tall and dove up the stones to make his forge. His bad temper caused his exile from his native land. At the end of his life ,his third leg dripped and drooped,and he was given a special place by the fire.
As much as i adore the series of Vikings. But imagine if they did the whole of this story, theyd have so much more episodes and id be highly hooked as i am on Vikings. watched it 3times already and half way through season1 again
What a well done grippingly authored story. Holding me to the very end. I truly can't wait to hear the others an read of the full books! Thank you for bring history alive again.
Yes. In my family tree he was killed by the pit of snakes. Sad! I am thankful for him. My family is here due to him being one of my 38th Great Grandfathers. I knew some of what he did. Thank you for making this video. Vikings! 🕊 ❤
Every single person of european heritage is directly related to every person that lived in the 8th century, but Lothbrok is probably just a myth. 38 generations back means he was one of your 1 trillion ancestors. :D
@@bobbibacha He is my 34th grandfather. But every european today has him as his direct ancestor, if he actually lived in the 8th century. You are a direct ancestor of all people that lived at that time and has a lineage.
Am not normally in to stories with animation but this was very well done. I'm an actor that can appreciate when a tale is portrayed so well that the audience member loses themselves in the narrative, which is exactly my experience watching your piece.
I'm blind in one eye from a battle in an American prison, so reading is difficult. Thank you for skillfully reading these wonderful stories I enjoyed it more than you realize. 👌
The only resemblance between the tv show, enjoyable as it was, and the actual sagas, is little more than the names. A thoroughly enjoyable presentation.
I thought they did a decent job given that the stories are close to 2,000 years old. The series had to appeal to a TV audience. If the show interests them, the sagas are easily available. I read them in grad school in Old Norse. I could not do it today.
This was good really enjoyed,most of the viking things I have read were very savage with lots of plundering and brutality,but this sensibly told really enjoyed and trully captivated,thanks!!!!!!
At this time there were no Norway, Denmark or Sweden yet, the land was divided by Kingdoms! Ragnar it said had A Danish tie, as does Rollo The Dane! I am A descendent from Rollo and some other Viking Kings as well!Love these stories, but would Love to find where Rollo (Hrolf) fits in!
Missing one piece of the death song. Ragnar says: Grunt, the piglets will if they knew what the old Boar suffered. In Danish: Grynte ville grisene hvis de vidste hvad galten led. It is a joke and a hint of revenge. The saying is still part of the Danish language to this day.
@Karl Childers bjorn never existed. It's fiction. If you need to know everything, it's all written on the Bayeux Tapestry, as opposed to amazon "vikings" wikia. Dude.
@Karl Childers Some grave with a lad named bjorn, it sounded so kool as a king for a show, no? and it doesn't prove anything about a viking "king" by the way, that never existed in the first place. As for Danemark itself, it was founded by the king of the Frank and First Holy Roman Emperor, Charlemagne. Evidence being, it's spelled DANEMARK, as the frozen march of the Danes it always has bin. Not "Denmark" out of any kind of blue deprived of instructed French perspective. And I know the Nords better than you. Because 1) You quite literally adressing the present count of Champagne, right now. 2) Danes exist as a civilization honored by the Franks thank to the alleged end of one single man. His name was Oger the Dane, Charlemagne most single and deadly Senechal de France there ever was. ... That's also why the ACTUAL founder of the danes is also celebrated as HOGIER, the Jack of Spades, as codified in the ducal cards to celebrate his historical victory against lesser beings in 1453. History paid the big price though, as the byzantine empire dropped it the very same year. Now, do you feel like needing more of MYtory? Mmmh? And when I say wikia, I'm in "oui, qui a" as I tend to spit in glitch my own weight, as I see feet, from time to time. Me lad. Aye, sole tea. Don't you ever try do diminish the major influence France (hence the word "franchise") had on any "kind of" civilization your little brain could ever muster, me lad.
A lot of details were very off or misplaced or simply added in to make modern sense but I found it to be very captivating and possibly learned a new thing or two to look into
Kráka, Áslaug and Gríma are the same persone, Áslaug changed her name throut her life and after Ragnars death she took the name Kráka. For real. Read the books for once befoure making videoes on it online. And in what book do thay say Lagatha met Ragnar. It does not come in Ragnarsdrápu, Þættir Ragnarssonum or Völsungasaga witch are the only books written from the north about him. One other book his name comes up but that is an saxon book, you can imagen how you would make him look after he deared to kill monks and prests. (That is also the only book written on lagatha, and the old scandinavian writings do not even acknolage her at all in there storyes)
Imagine being 15 years old, your mom dies and your dad goes super simp for a woman who he barely knows, fails to get with her and kills himself to be with her, maybe...
Very fun, also very inaccurate to *all the sagas* But, it's a fun story. That's the point of the Saga's, so fair enough. (P.S, Erik and Agner were children of his first wife, who was not Aslaug. Their eldest child was Ivarr).
There as real as the fictional stories in the bible! I don’t understand how people can believe what’s in the bible and think that Viking sagas aren’t real, the sagas are more real to me then ANYTHING in the fictional bible.
The difference is ladypiro you don't get people who worshipped odin coming on youtube constantly leaving scripture randomly in every video. I think I would have preferred it if Christianity died out instead of Norse mythology.
3 top historical movies for your day. King Arthur director's cut only" w Clive Owen Kiera Knightley and many great actors. Pompeii w kit Harrigan and keifer Sutherland, huge gladiator movie. And then Gladiator itself. You can find all 3 free on youtube and lots of Vikings from history Chanel's go get your Ragnar Lothbrok on. Vikings you gotta see that.
All of these films I would characterize as "historical fantasy", as there's very little actual history, while a great deal of imagination and plain untruths were used to make up the screenplays.
Aren't Thelma and Warnies, scary enough for you Todd? You never listen to Thelma of Norway, "if this is what you want in 20yrs Todd than you better remember, he's who catches the flowers to have some to give to her, now you got him dressed in pink? Why can't you just figure out how to keep your ranged pants to yourself, because if he's this screwed up this many years later cause we had a long asset list of shit to find out that he's over heard eather! You'll see why Warnny said yeah, you'd be better off going fishing or what the hell it is that your supposed to do in New Halem, we're guessing it has to do with what ever the God's name in illegal hell we're forced by law to hear and see his whole life too!
many comments of being related to Ragnar and not to be a killjoy but many historians are not certain that he was real. he is not considered a specific historical person, like Rollo, or William the Conqueror, for example, who are real people who interacted with other known historical persons Rollo had an agreement with King Charles the Simple of west Francia william the conqueror was married to Mathilda descendant of Alfred the Great. many of the characters in the Ragnar story are not necessarily proven historical people.
This is all good fun, and I have enjoyed listening to the stories, but horned helmets? This detail is just not accurate. Horns on a battle helmet invites an opponent to hook or knock it off your head.
This is the story they should've went with in Vikings on history it would've been a much better story then that false story the history channel put regardless if it was enjoyable or not it was not historically accurate.
@@ulrichkristensen4087 Ragnar Lothbrok did exist. They are not sure if it's the same one in the Anglo Saxon text. He was a legendary Viking figure that did exist. But, people can say the same thing about Jesus Christ aka Yeshua. When at the time Three Messiah's existed then.
@@helenacorvinus no he did not exist, there is absolutely no evidence for him. The first Danish king or king of some danes, is mentioned in the Frankish chronicles in and around 517 AD, he was killed on an attack on the Frankish land by Theoderbert the son of Theoderik the first, his name was Hugelik. From here it gets very muddy, but Historians do know that there must have been somekind of central power in jutland at least, since the wall across the Southern jutland peninsula is build around that time. The next King of danes or some Danes we know of is Frode or Harald Klak in early 800 AD
There is no possible way to have that much ACTUALLY ACCURATE lineage. It would obviously be doctored to add certain historic individuals and remove villainous individuals from the bloodline!
Glorious. This how I'm trying to live, "without breaking too many more major laws" I'd love to meet a sheild maiden like that. I'm Celtic but I feel these people more than anyone else. Tho Celtic stories are very rare. The Roman's so hurt by my peoples strength in resistance that the made many slaves of my people would be Gladiators in the such and mostly they killed off our only masters of reading and writing history and I will destroyed whatever the writing and artifacts anything that they could find of the celtics. Just they just decimated the ones in Europe but my ancestors in the UK really give them a hard fight for which they took the South and created Hadrian's Wall kept my people to the north man my mother's people anyway the kincaids and my mother's father's people who became the westcotts far north England before Scotland they went through a different name I don't know if they were part of the pics or who they were. But they were there. And my father's people had gone to Ireland the o d o w n e y Clan when I looked up their name and the kincaids they were listed as people who would fought the Romans and we're originally from somewhere in the UK but ended up where they were because South half of England taken by the Romans until the Romans left around 500 AD the time of the real Chief Arthur or King Arthur and the Anglo-Saxons came on down what a nightmare that was actually later today I'm going to watch the one good closer to truth King Arthur director's cut with all sorts of really great actors including Keira Knightley is going to be her Celtic Warrior lady and they show Merlin as he really was just as the Celtics da Vinci man of wisdom great inventor magic to the uninitiated I guess you could say. Yeah the Romans really slaughtered a great number of people that were our leaders are priests all in one they all met and trained and learns and one large island and in certain places and then went back out to the people of their local lands where they would teach and guide and Lead there but would occasionally meet back with the others of their kind the infamous druids. The Roman's called druids bad for human sacrifice but it's ok to put defenseless pacifist Christians to death in a Colosseum. Not a fair fight with a Lion. Realy not cool man. God, I love history. Today Il watch Clive Owans King Arthur only the director cut" 2x action. And then the gladiator movie "Pompeii" another insanely good history type huge movie with Kit Harrigan as the main warrior on of the last Horsemen Celtic warriors. As a brutal Gladiator when the volcano blew. KIEFFER Sutherland is a great bad guy in that movie, perfect Roman A hole And he can fight well. Great actors
I'm from McCracken clan if you know how to read Celtics language McCracken comes from McNaughton but in Celtics the n sounds as an R so in kind of sounds like McCracken
Right! And the way practically everything is being feminized, truth is going to become harder and harder to find.. you can’t listen or watch anything anymore without the woman correcting or saving the idiotic male. It’s made entertainment ridiculous..
He had a lot of enemies back then. Nobody is gonna tell the truth about a mortal enemy even if he is European royalty. And, that my friend is why I’m glad I’m the only black one of the litter willing to show up at the family reunion😎
Only one thing is certain: once there was a guy called Ragnar Lodbrog, or Furpants in english. He made a name for himself throgh his behavior. What he did is both real and imagination, but nobody knows what is what.
A fairy tale for kids. It has nothing to do with Ragnar Lodbrog. Ragnar was an earl and not a king until much later in his life. This video is pure fiction.
I can tell you what the problem with Ragnar's wives are they all hate each other so Ragnar said F this and walked a way with two middle fingers in the air

The prevailing theory of most historians is that Ragnar was fictional and likely a combination of 3 vikings. I like to think he was real
Me too. I think he was a real Warrior; and now sits with his sons and dines with them in Odin's Golden Halls of Valhalla.
While this is true there are also many French documents that suggest he was indeed a real person
What a heroic saga! I listened to this because a Norwegian friend has a cat she has named Lodbrok. I looked up the name and think it is perfect for a furry cat. Then I wanted to know more about Ragnar.

Just they just decimated the ones in Europe but my ancestors in the UK really give them a hard fight for which they took the South and created Hadrian's Wall kept my people to the north man my mother's people anyway the kincaids and my mother's father's people who became the westcotts far north England before Scotland they went through a different name I don't know if they were part of the pics or who they were. But they were there. And my father's people had gone to Ireland the o d o w n e y Clan when I looked up their name and the kincaids they were listed as people who would fought the Romans and we're originally from somewhere in the UK but ended up where they were because South half of England taken by the Romans until the Romans left around 500 AD the time of the real Chief Arthur or King Arthur and the Anglo-Saxons came on down what a nightmare that was actually later today I'm going to watch the one good closer to truth King Arthur director's cut with all sorts of really great actors including Keira Knightley is going to be her Celtic Warrior lady and they show Merlin as he really was just as the Celtics da Vinci man of wisdom great inventor magic to the uninitiated I guess you could say. Yeah the Romans really slaughtered a great number of people that were our leaders are priests all in one they all met and trained and learns and one large island and in certain places and then went back out to the people of their local lands where they would teach and guide and Lead there but would occasionally meet back with the others of their kind the infamous druids. The Roman's called druids bad for human sacrifice but it's ok to put defenseless pacifist Christians to death in a Colosseum. Not a fair fight with a Lion. Realy not cool man. God, I love history. Today Il watch Clive Owans King Arthur only the director cut" 2x action. And then the gladiator movie "Pompeii" another insanely good history type huge movie with Kit Harrigan as the main warrior on of the last Horsemen Celtic warriors. As a brutal Gladiator when the volcano blew. KIEFFER Sutherland is a great bad guy in that movie, perfect Roman A hole And he can fight well. Great actors
I'm from McCracken clan if you know how to read Celtics language McCracken comes from McNaughton but in Celtics the n sounds as an R so in kind of sounds like McCracken

Jutland spells jylland hehe
what do you mean Real Story of Ragnar ??
Man, if someone killed my dog I wouldn't just hang around chatting to them.
Hey, UA-cam I'll watch this video later and please remind me in the evening. I know you listen & will see my comment.🙂
WHat is missing inthe show ragnar met lagertha
Well "Vikings" butchered that story lol
Ragnar The Rakehell ! Good grief he got around..
That’s how I got here. The old man looks me during my senior year of high school football. Just a little bit more buffed🤣
This isn't right, a nice story but very false, the song for instance....the song Ragnar sang was a war cry for his Bjorn and Ivar to get revenge
My 35th great grandfather
You have a relative in the comments
Ragnar and Lagertha had a son Fridleif and two unamed daughters
Can't even pronounce the names right lagertha lol ok decent video I like how you came up with the dialog to tell the story
So dragons existed or these tales are mythical in nature?
Can there really be a TRUE story about Ragnar? We only have legends
Right! And the way practically everything is being feminized, truth is going to become harder and harder to find.. you can’t listen or watch anything anymore without the woman correcting or saving the idiotic male. It’s made entertainment ridiculous..
People have to belive i guess. 🤣
Amen.
He had a lot of enemies back then. Nobody is gonna tell the truth about a mortal enemy even if he is European royalty. And, that my friend is why I’m glad I’m the only black one of the litter willing to show up at the family reunion😎
Only one thing is certain: once there was a guy called Ragnar Lodbrog, or Furpants in english. He made a name for himself throgh his behavior. What he did is both real and imagination, but nobody knows what is what.
A fairy tale for kids. It has nothing to do with Ragnar Lodbrog. Ragnar was an earl and not a king until much later in his life. This video is pure fiction.
Why don't I like this narrative voice
I can tell you what the problem with Ragnar's wives are they all hate each other so Ragnar said F this and walked a way with two middle fingers in the air
FOR A SECOND I THOUGHT IT WAS GOR THE GOD KILLER FROM THOR LOVE AND THUNDER.🤦♂️👈
