Still Waters Posted November 18, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 18, 2013 If Vikings were here today, the sounding of a distinctive horn in York would have created chaos. The ancient instrument, blown last night, signalled exactly 100 days until the end of the world, according to Norse mythology. Legend has it that the Norse God, Heimdallr, would blow the mythical Gjallerhorn to warn of the Viking apocalypse, also known as 'Ragnarok'. http://www.dailymail...ruary-2014.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keel M. Posted November 18, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Well everyone's gotta get on the End of the World Prediction Bandwagon and we cannot leave out the Vikings. I guess Winter really is coming. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OverSword Posted November 18, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2013 They blew the horn which is supposed to bring about ragnaroc? Thanks for betting for the rest of us that it isn't true. Now I have to dust off my armor and get back into Viking shape to help Odin and achieve glory. Actually been waiting many years for this so about time! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freetoroam Posted November 18, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 18, 2013 All these end of the world predictions by people who died out years ago! How many Mayans or Vikings do you see around today? no signs of them predicting their own demise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skep B Posted November 18, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Hey....shut up This isn't any ordinary end of world, with saddness and pain and suffering. This is Ragnarok, an eternal Metal Album cover on LSD 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the Mayan apocolypse didn't happen, they were weak, but us Vikings are strong. HAIL & KILL! DEATH TO FALSE METAL! THE END IS HERE BY ODIN SO GET READY!

Haha, well I learn something new everday. The Mr Cohen and Epsteins and now the Chinese are all descendants of the vikings. Anyway, I'm game for this, just supply me with a real armour dress and i'm there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skithia Posted November 19, 2013 #21 Share Posted November 19, 2013 emmmm I believe the legend says Heimdallr has to blow the horn to signal 100 days til Ragnarok - some random dude in a viking suit doesnt count . Mind you if you are going to have an apocalypse this would at least be one we would all notice if it was winter for 3 years with assorted wolves and giants wandering about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're Vikings not Mayans! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
