breh the vikings were raiders... like stick up kids. Stick up kids get the drop on the biggest gangsters just cause they slip in at the right time/place with too much force. These dudes were ferocious
also my wiki research showed that an arab ambassador got caught up with some vikings in the 10th century.. lol.. i'll make a detailed post on it later

Who's "them?" Most everyone did not conquer the entire continent.

I be winkin' through the scope
They were dumb intellectually and overrated as a people. Just a bunch of pirates who preyed on the weak.

Fukk your corny debates
They're alot more dangerous when they're urban legends.
You can't stop a swinging axe with an ankle lock, you mango smoothie.
I could destroy a viking in hand to hand combat. They were simplistic and dumb. They werent conquerors like that that that. They had little colonies n all that but they werent running things. They were too stupid. They were just old school pirates and often times, when they met up with an organized people they got their shyt handed to them. Id slap one and rip off his beard in the same strike.

Damn, you don't know shyt about the vikings/history. You should read a book. Little colonies.

this is from the arab dude in the 10th century:
I have never seen more perfect physiques than theirs—they are like palm trees, are fair and reddish, and do not wear the qurtaq or the caftan. The man wears a cloak with which he covers one half of his body, leaving one of his arms uncovered. Every one of them carries an axe, a sword and a dagger and is never without all of that which we have mentioned. Their swords are of the Frankish variety, with broad, ridged blades.
Face it breh these guys were built huge and strong and always carried multiple large weapons. You can't do MMA against pure physical strength
Also, they weren't dumb.. they created a lot of oral poetry. The oldest poem in the english language is a norse legend

they had some very high quality weapons as well. lots of pattern welded shyt.
the second half where he goes and fights with them is fiction.. is the movie good? I might watch it tonight
Zero stop it. You arent versed well enough in hand to hand combat to make these claims. I would beat the shyt out of one of these vikings. MMA takes pure physical strength. Its not a gentle art. Now against those swords and things like that obviously, id be dashed to death but with a fair one? Please.
Also, what was huge back in those times. Most these cats were flabby n sick lookin so im sure by huge you're talking someone between 160 and 180 on Average with their brutes being in the low 200's. Its a misconception that they were all a band of large brolic individuals. Jon Jones could beat the shyt out of every viking that ever lived.
