Fall Asleep to the ENTIRE Story of the Vikings — The Raiders, Explorers, and Gods of the North

This video tells the entire story of the Vikings — the seafaring people of the cold Northern world. The Raiders who came out of the sea. The Explorers who crossed the open ocean. The Gods of a magnificent and tragic mythology. Let it carry you, slowly, into sleep. This sleep history documentary explores the full story: the land that made the Norse and the longships that carried them; the raid on Lindisfarne and the coming of the Northmen; the Great Heathen Army and Alfred the Great; the siege of Paris and the birth of Normandy; the Rus on the rivers of Russia and the Varangians in Constantinople; the settlement of Iceland and its free assembly; Erik the Red and Greenland; Leif Erikson and the shores of Vinland five hundred years before Columbus; the World-Tree Yggdrasil and the Nine Worlds; one-eyed Odin the Allfather, red-bearded Thor and his hammer, and cunning Loki the trickster; the creation of the world from fire and ice; the death of bright Baldr and the binding of Loki; Ragnarök, the doom of the gods, and the green new world that rises after; Valhalla and the Valkyries; the warriors and berserkers, the runes and the skalds, the law-assemblies and the great trading towns; the kings who forged the North, the last battle at Stamford Bridge, the fading of the old gods, and the long legacy of the Northmen across half the world. Out beyond the cold grey sea, the dragon-ship drifts on through the dark. The green fire of the aurora ripples silently across the top of the world. ▶️ Press play. Close your eyes.
