      I like bushcraft vids, a lot, learned basics from my dad who was a violent b'tard btw, though my earliest memory was him shielding me from a farmer with a cocked and pointed shotgun (no idea if loaded) when I was 2, my head came to his knee, so not all bad.
      I subbed to you after watching many vids because you are based, though I don't watch as often I ought to anymore because it's simply depressing you're right. I fight the corporate commie globalists best I can, who wouldn't, but there is a limit to how many channels you can hear the same thing from.
      Took me a few years to learn my surname is Saxon, not French as my dad insisted it was. So close enough to Norse :P You've taught me a lot, though I don't comment because the shame of being poor is too much, I can't contribute. Sorry man. I used to be well off, till our UK woke courts gave everything I owned to my ex-wife. Mortgage free house, cash in the bank, car, all hers now, despite my oldest son moved in with me as soon as the woke courts had no sway over him, my youngest son planning to do the same in 18 months time when same applies because their mother is abusive, something woke a holes will never admit. Her new lover's kids, np with him, he isn't the guy 18 yrs younger than me she left me for after 20 yrs marriage, has two girls who already did the same too, ran, as soon as they could, in their case to their estranged mother just to escape. I'm disabled, living on less than £6k pa now, something that will pay for food or power, not both. Come winter if I can still make comments it'll be because people who can still work pay my share via involuntary support, can't say no, I wanna live, just feel it.
      So, way too long a story short, turns out I at least owe you a thank you. So thank you. Keep up the good work

    You remind me so much of my Norwegian family cousins and uncles, etc. Here's a fun Swede/Norwegian rivalry joke we always enjoy (and Swedes do too). A group of Swedes and Norwegians were having an argument. It got intense and the Swedes had enough and threw some grenades into the crowd of Norwegians. The Norwegians picked them up, pulled the pins, and threw them back.

      Finnish belief is that a house is safe from all evil Trolls and Goblins if there's a iron object above the door. Trolls are afraid of iron. Perhaps show a picture of a shower at the start of every video. Showers are usually made of iron. Trolls can't stand iron.

      @@kyntyr5474 it’s actually written in the word of God. Profanity in Lou of proper speech is looked upon as demeaning to the one who spoke it, and is considered an insult to those within earshot of said profanity. I find history interesting as long as it is accurate. Christian or not, truth is truth. The Vikings were great warriors, to be admired along with the other great warriors of the past and present. Final point, and yes, our society has diminished to the point that good is evil and evil is good. That is why our nations and our world are in such turmoil. Look at the solution needed, remove the corrupt that occupy our governments, prosecute them and once we find them guilty, punish them, make them examples so that the people will not forget the consequences of man’s evil acts.

      @@kyntyr5474 You are free to believe what you will. Your rights and freedoms didn’t come from man, they were established by God. Here in America, our Founding Documents which is the law here, came from God’s laws. Throughout our nation God’s laws can be found written on and in the buildings that house our government. The reason why our nation is in upheaval is directly due to the fact that the people have become more Godless. They have allowed criminals to run rampant within our government, simply because they have chosen to compromise the laws established instead of enforcing said laws. Believe what you will but your freedoms are not given to you by man. If man is left to govern himself there will be no freedom, there will be no peace, just chaos. As George Bush Sr. said “out of chaos a new world order will be created”. A one world government that will place its thumb on us like we are pesky insects. Charles Schwab just recently said, “by 2030 all humans will be chipped”. Evil is indeed growing because man refuses to uphold laws divinely established.

    Great video, it seemed that you were a bit apprehensive about some of your explanations but in this day and age, I don't blame you. I appreciate the fact that you're going a bit outside of the box as they say. Keep up the good work and I look forward to watching your carving video!

    Dear Uncle Bjorn,
    Thank you for the insightful and entertaining look into your culture, i was very satisfied.
    If you could consider making a follow up video with modern cuss words in Swedish, i would deeply appreciate it.
    You need not even translate the words into English, just say the words. We will learn phonetically.
    Hope this finds you healthy and well,
    please keep doing what you are doing
    Your Nephew.

    If there is anything that I have learned from history it's that humanity hasn't really changed.

    My Dad was Norwegian. Both parents from Norway. Its a shame the family never taught us the language.

    The first thing we made Jonatan (A German exchange student that came to Missouri when I was a Junior in high school) teach us to do was cuss in German, which we didn't know how to do. Then we took him to shoot guns, which he didn't know how to do. Fair trade.

    It's funny, in Austrian vulgar slang "Fut" means also the genetal of a women or simply a women. It's a "relict" from the middle age language 😅

    The interesting part to me is how you were expected to hold your tongue with negative words against your brothers and sisters. It kinda reminds me of Biggus Dickus from Monty Python. I think all Europeans share a similar sense of humor.

    When I was growing up my mom and her brothers who were 100% Norwegian would always switch to the Norwegian language if they didn't want the youngsters to know who or what they were talking abouts same for the grandparents and aunts and uncles.
