I know there's the story that deals with Rolo and Gisla, which is set in France. And I know there are parts of the story that deal with Ragnar, Aslaug and Lagertha. I think they mention Athelstan (which for a short moment I thought was a mention of one of the kings of England), a monk, and that's pretty much it. Save, of course, for the scene where the bloody eagle is showcased.


Pssssh. vikings having sex is a total myth. They actually grew on trees.


I have it under good authority that they actually come from barnacles.

Vikings also have a totally kick-ass justice system. Like really, they have court cases, legislations, the whole nine yards.

If memory serves, the phrase "the whole nine yards" originated in the US military during WWII. The .50 cal ammo belts that were used in aircraft were 9 yards long. Or so the story goes.

My favorite was this one where you cannot fold a paper exactly into half 7 times. Has to do something with thickness and folds.

Though... it CAN be done with a very, very thin paper, a nearly 2D paper.

EDIT: It was more of a myth.

Ok, another one, and this one is a fact, is how if you fold a piece of paper 103 times... the thickness will be longer than the Universe.

Listening to this Aussie guy talk about his taroos. Taroos this, taroos that and I'm scratching my head, going "his what?", "is that some Aussie dish?" Only to realize he's talking about his tattoos. I feel dumb. :p

I've heard about that one. Apparently, Stonewall Jackson would hold his left arm in the air while riding. Something about blood flow, I think.
