Around the age of 12-14 they'd pledge loyalty to their Jarl (lord/chief) they're now considered men and practice to prepare for raids and war against other vikings. But in the end they were a agricultural society that mostly relied on their crops and only raided when in need of money for trade with other viking settlements, and later England, France and Arabic states because as you know: the language of gold and silver is spoken everywhere in the world.

I agree; even if the Berserker is not over 6 ft tall, their rage induced beast mode is something the samurai would not have seen before, and all the training in the world doesn't stop shock factor.

I've studied both Japanese as well as Norse culture and I will say that over the past few years I fell more towards the side of the Norse culture and I am extremely obsessed with the Berzerkers. But with that comes a lot of different theories and I know that there are two main types of berserkers which were 1.The obvious Berserkers (Bear Coats) and 2.Ulfhednar (Wolf Coats) mostly known as Odin's Special Warriors. Ulfhednar were said to be agile, quick and very strategic hence the reason they were Odin's Special Warriors. The Berserkers were as you described, but it the case of the Bear Coats there have been several studies leaning towards amanita muscaria playing a huge roll in their behavior. The statements were that before battle, their ritual of protection and victory also consisted of consuming the mushrooms which were described as "putting them in a trance-like fury" and also worked as a stimulant giving them the ability to move at "Superhuman speeds" and already being strong, now it's rage and speed on their side. I always had a theory about accounts of ancient hound warriors described as human/dog hybrid beings that were insanely violent and had speeds no human could match. I almost wonder if translation got distorted along the lines or if people were so traumatized by the behavior of the ulfhednar that they literally believed they saw human/dog hybrids in battle.

We are given a window into that truth through the design of the katana.

This was already debated years ago, when the spike channel ran the first season of Deadliest Warrior. The samurai won. And later on the Japanese sword had varying lengths; ranging from the wakizashi about 17 to 20 inches long, the chisa katana ranging from 22 to 24 inches long, the regular katana ranging from 26 to 30 inches long, the tachi ranging from 32 to 36 inches long, and even the odachi or nodachi which was almost over 4 ft in length, and was the Japanese equivalent to the Scottish claymore.

But keep in mind that the vikings were much more experienced in battle mostly from civil disputes. The axe was probably the most useful weapon in those days second to a spear. As it said that the japanese arent arent as experienced due to long lasting peace. Samurai tend to do well but lack the shields for protection. The shield wall and tactics of the vikings would eat the samurai alive. The lack of fear of death is also a big play.

They didn’t go over all the different types of armor that were used in the Edo period as well as the other armor styles. Furthermore the “load out” for the Samaria could be vastly different depending on what their role was in a battle. Yes it’s true infantry men usually had a bow, a sword and a spear, it would not be likely that a Viking would get a chance to see the samurai before he was nailed with a volley of arrows. Samaria avoided single combat preferring ambush tactics when not with a Calvary

While the armor may weigh over 50 pounds, you didn't take into account where the bulk of that ends up going, and the most sturdy parts of armor are held at the Waist, making them feel much less heavy.

It's important to bear in mind that this warriors evolved differently based on their circumstances. If they had come into contact, they would had developped different tactics and equipement to face each other, like for example, if the blades and armor of the samurai were of little use or even a hindrance, they could have addapted by using blunt weapons like the tetsubo and reducing the ammount of armour they wore. The berserker could have opted for even bigger and stronger shields to protect against the samurai's bow.

It was what was used in europe from around the 1500s up to the 1700s. Samurai armor is also literaly bullet proof as blacksmiths would literaly show of their skills by shooting their armor at point blank with a musket. Japanese armor was easily comparable to european plate. And was built extremely similarly by the late sangoku jidai. The laborus forging techniques used by the japanese also removed the impuritys in the iron thus making difference in iron quality irrelevant. The katana is a largely ceremonial weapon not designed and rarely ever used on the battlefield. This is the case in literally the entire world. Long swords are never the primary weapon for any army.

The katana guy and the axe guy

Expect for some ceremonial helmets that were never used in battle, Vikings didn't have horned helmets. Another major weapon of the Samurai was a powerful Club. In the deadliest warrior series this club was capable of shattering a Viking shield and quite possibly breaking the forearm. Samurai were deadly bowmen, and many could put an arrow in an eye with any shot. A normal Viking was also skilled with a bow, but Berserkers wouldn't use one.

I think a point missed is that samurai tend to fill in as cavalry and mounted archers. To me, if we don’t include the samurai’s mounted combat I think we shouldn’t include the benefits of the berserker’s berserkergang since those are key to both warriors in actual combat. Though this was very enjoyable!

There used to be a show that went over two different types of fighters, including weapon effectiveness and fighting styles, and then recreating how they’d think it would go. It was pretty great.

Katana swords were also made of steel folded many, many times (some say up to 1000 times) and were very, very sharp. The armor the Samurai wore was made mostly for show and intimidation and it is said that when the Mongol warriors tried to invade Japan the Mongols were able to overwhelm them with volleys of arrows.

There's one more factor that this video leaves out: intelligence. The berserker may have the samurai beat in brute strength and physicality, but in his frenzied state, he's little more than a wild animal with almost no capacity for complex strategy or tactics whatsoever. This, of course, is something the samurai can easily exploit, especially with his bow. Furthermore, the samurai had other weapons he can use against the berserker, including the kanabo, with which he can damage the berserker's shield and break his shield arm, if not pulverize him outright.

That's awesome! Cool concept. What if the Vikings battled the Seven Samurai? 🇸🇪🇯🇵⚔️

Samurais were employed mostly as mounted archers and berserks are shock infantry. If they meet head on, berserkers are likely to rout the samurai line. But the samurais have mobility and range at their disposal, and they should be able to choose a favourable engagement. One on one, it is really hard to say, as the Vikings usually carry large shield, and the Yumi as accurate and powerful it is will have a hard time getting pass the shield.

The average height of a Viking was about 5’7” so I don’t think they got the height for the berserkers right.

About that Stanford Bridge thing. The Viking forces had just took York, and were partying hard, Harold Godwinson got down to York in just 7 days, and surprise attacked the Viking force. And a tale suggests that a berserker was on the bridge cutting down English troops and dodging arrows, eventually defeated by a soldier getting in a barrel and going under the bridge and shoving a spear throw his groin.
