Amazing, that's where I saw it as well. An amazing project from laying the keel to sailing across the Atlantic. A true life adventure.

The long distance shots of the ship are really inspiring and beautiful. Wonderful videos.

Did they use a drone, that many years ago? Or was there a support ship?

At 2:22 you can see the pilot house with a windshield under the Norwegian flag. The pilot house is where the engine is controlled. The engine on this ship is required by the Norwegian government and the crew is limited to 30.

Awesome footage. I can imagine how tough it would have been near 1500 years ago without modern safety gear, VHF and GPS.

It's hard to imagine the men of old sailing like that in an open ship with absolutely no support. Tough breed.

Looking forward to seeing you on the St. Lawrence River as you pass by Waddington NY!!!

Such beauty.. such grace and strength in that vessel.. good show gentleman.. I say good show...

I'm falling in love with this ship, haha...brilliant artistic camera work by the way.

Absolutely fantastic!

Looks great! I was sorry not to get a place, I am sure they were hard fought for. What an amazing opportunity for all concerned.

I love this Captain. Very softspoken, takes no unnecessary risks and seems to be respected by all crew members. I love the way the crew works well as a team, no words needed, they all know what to do. This is about Vikings sailing, not about marauding... I hope no Americans showed up in Hollywood Viking wardrobes...

MARVELOUS DRAGON SHIP, LOVE THE FOOTAGE, PLEASE KEEP IT COMING......SALUDOS! FROM THE BALEARIC ISLANDS OF SPAIN.....

There’s something beautiful about this.

Интересно, почему не используется система блоков на фале (хотя на брасах блоки есть)? Почему в подъёме паруса обходятся без топенантов? Так бы было легче :) This is an amazing journey! I wonder why not use blocks system fale (although Brasa blocks there)? Why the rise in the cost of the sail without main lifts (span ropes)? So it would be easier :)

OUTSTANDING!!!!

This is so Beautiful what a ship hail to Odin for producing such wonderful northmen whose names will be talked about as long as man has tounges thank you for showing us what it was like for the true northmen to sail

I have such great respect for these videos because they are the closest thing to the real scandanavian sea culture absolutly amazing crew amazing long ship i would have never seen these on the ocean in my entire life i live here in canada and we have allot of lakes my uncle builds birch bark canoes and its interesting how different cultures built different types of water crossing vessels i would say though some one should make a video on the 35 foot british columbia first nation carved out voyagers that would have no doubt been a match if not lighter and faster but they did not have the sail technologies that the viking s had adapted from seeing mériterainian sales but these ships were manned with ores for each 5 feet of it and they did go to war against one and other with these great red wood canoes i would call them closer to a scooner without a sail

Very cool!

If the wind was forward of the beam, I'm sure those old Vikings would've just put the engine on too

Floci would be proud !

The vikings also used yellow survival suits.

Respect to these brave seamen and seawomen

On old Ragnars coffin sat seven drunken vikings, Odiiin! And a jug of aquavit.

How gigantic and complex it looked in scaffolding and what a lonely tiny chip it is in the stormy sea...

@@hzhang1228 Yes it was rather obvious, at the launching the fact that two men per oar were required was said giving the impression that that was to be the means of powering the boat. I notice that there was a deck which surprised me, the size was also surprising and I wonder if the Vikings were capable of building such a vessel and if they were, whether the hogging, sagging and twisting stresses would have been too much for it. I may be exaggerating but the impression I have that it was the hardiness of man which overcame the sea and the people they conquered not the quality of their boats which must have leaked and required frequent baling out making a deck impractical.

No wonder why Vikings all were strong that shit looks hard

Oh, I didn't know they grew bell pepper on the Shetlands :)

how did vikings know where they were going and if they would even find land on the other side?, and they would need enough food and who knows if they knew about the scurvy disease? (you need vitamin c or you'll die)

How I can go there

Dr. Steve Brule has multiple broats.

I don't see anybody rowing?

Now imagine this, but you don't know what awaits you where you're going. If anything awaits you. And you have an incomplete picture of the world. And your clothes aren't as good.
