True, I remember seeing one review for Season 2 of Sons of Anarchy and right after got a recommendation on my mainpage for a reaction to the series finale and it had a spoiler for the ending IN THE VIDEO TITLE!! lol But you can avoid that by logging out of youtube and watching a video that way. Ofc. always risking seeing something you are not supposed to see during the search.

its a great video but the problem with watching those kind of videos is you get recommendations for other videos which might have spoilers in the title and thumbnail.

Hey, guys, I forgot to mention - you need to watch "The Choice" by Zurik23M. It's a fan-made video about the story of Ragnar! Everyone knows about it I'm just not too sure if you guys do or if you've even been asked to react to it ever since 4x15. Although, once 4x15 goes live on YouTube you'll probably get a lot of requests to watch it! Some might say to watch it once you've finished season 4b but there're no spoilers for the rest of episodes in the season that you guys haven't yet seen. Some may just think it better to finish off the season before you watch it. The Choice - Zurik23M. Watch it haha

Shae (maorismurf)

not the last time that happens either

the timelines are sometimes confusing in this show scenes don't necessarily follow chronologically. i mean it could of been worse according to some accounts he has time to recite an entire poem (the Krákumál) as he dies. while others just record his last words (about the little pigs) to Aelle which are infamous

Jack Howard

Whew, ok. That's better. I couldn't tell from the way the episode was set up if things were happening simultaneously to Ragnar's death or days later. Thinking of him slowly dying for days, suffering from the snake bites the entire time, really made me sick.

Sickleweed

well when ivar left England Ragnar was still in Wessex and it would of taken a few days to reach Aelle by that time ivar might have been already close to home. so i think he died relatively quickly but maybe odin waited for Ivar to returned to tell them

Jack Howard

Odin is definitely portrayed in the show as having supernatural powers. In the scene where Ragnar hangs himself (I believe to show that he alone is in control of his fate, not the gods)...we see a raven, representing Odin, sitting on his shoulder when the rope breaks. Showing him that his story isn't finished yet. He then makes the plan to go to England and die, knowing that will finally unite his sons to eventually invade there. After Odin pays them all a visit (I think it was pretty simultaneous) it ends up being the catalyst for the formation of the Great Heathen Army.

I absolutely love the scene at the end when everyone gets the news from Odin. So powerful. Great reaction.

Asadullah Khan

Wait, was I mistaken or were they actually implying that it took DAYS for Ragnar to actually die in the pit, based on when Lagertha and his sons realized his passing? So he was slowly dying in the pit all that time? Holy crap, that's haunting.

Sickleweed

Hannah's reaction to the child was just perfect. Lmao. Btw, why was Maddie's hand red? Was it from the skit that we'll be seeing?

Sickleweed

I actually appreciate episodes like this one which reminds us that The Vikings were not good people to the people they invaded and conquered. It's easy to forget that sometimes since we're seeing the events from their POV so we're naturally on their side.

Sickleweed

Loved the reaction! Now bring on the Great Heathen Army!

Hey love the reactions guys. HUGE fyi though. The prophecy didn’t come true. The blind man said he saw Ragnar the day BEFORE he was executed. That’s why Ragnar went on that rant when he hallucinated seeing the Seer. Not word for word, but this part : “I see you Ragnar Lothbrok” “When will we reach King Aelle’s?” “Not until tomorrow” “You and your gods are wrong. I guided my fate.”

Winterson94

we can't be sure about that, maybe some time has passed between the scenes, I believe he has been following Ragnar and he was there at the execution, that's how he knows about his death.

Harbard is definitely a charlatan but the Odin guy is in Spain and Norway at the same time.

Anthony

I believe that this Odin guy is not a god, he and Harbard they'r just normal men, they don't have super natural powers but they're very smart and they use some kind of hypnosis and drugs to manipulate peoples minds to serve their own interests, like Harbard he only wanted to hookup with women, and it worked for him, I mean think about it, this is how religions worked through the history, and still today in some kind of form, the whole purpose of every religion is control, power, money, nothing more.

Also love that Micky is looking in the history of Ragnar. You should also in the future consider looking into Ragnars sons history( when you're caught up of course) as they are widely regarded as being more famous than him

Jack Howard

One of my personal favourite episodes. The only thing I disliked about this episode is Lagertha calling Ivar a Lothbrok. When that was Ragnars nickname. That's like calling all of Bjorns kid Ironside

Jack Howard

Great reaction and episode got real emotional at the end of it. Also the thing about the Seer and why Ragnar said he was wrong was because the Seer said he would die on the day the blind man saw him but Ragnar actually died a few days after making the Seer wrong that’s why Ragnar had that final confrontation with the Seer saying he was wrong and that his prophecies were wrong and dangerous. So technically Ragnar was right
