The Real Ivar The Boneless Vikings Documentary
video description
I remember in my high school times to have witnessed EHLERS-DANLOS symptoms on a colleague when he could voluntarily bend his 10 fingers in such manner that every phalanx looked sagged downwards featuring a catenary arc shape. Also, his was able to pinch his skin and stretch it to a certain extent that seemed made of super-elastic rubber.
On the other hand, two months ago, an ex-Nurse from Boston Alli Rae showed in social networks how can she bend her thumbs in a 90- degree angle that also meet less acute EHLERS-DANLOS criteria, fortunately.
I think Ivar could have suffered in some degree the E. D syndrome

So, first off, the Norse traded in England for a couple hundred years because of their cousins the Jutes and Angles, and Lindisfarne had even traded with them. The raiding started because of Charlemagne's bloody genocide of pagans through Europe and was trying to go into Denmark, and the Pope ordering the end of all trade with the Norse. Do keep in mind, Pagan Norway was often an ally to Christian England, so there was no Scandinavian wide hatred of Christianity.
Seriously, who does your research? They need fired.
Ivar and Halfdan conscripted the Scots.
You pronounced Sigvatr wrong.
Yeah, so many things wrong here. garbage.

Love your series on early medieval period - hen ogledd/old north, viking age. but Northumbria didn't introduce christianity to Britian. It's more complicated than that and really only applies to the english kingdoms that flip/flopped between christianity and the old norse gods. For the rest of the island the Welsh kingdoms were christian already and according to writers Patrick/Kentigern/Ninian/Columba were best known for taking the message to Irish/Pictish/Scotti(sh) kingdoms. I'm still catching up with the series so haven't got to Columba yet!

Heathen, or godless, is a relative term. To the Christians a Viking was a heathen because he didn't have the same belief system. It is also true that to the Vikings
Christians were heathens, for they did not share the Asatru belief system. Each religious system of humanity is of the belief that if you do not follow their particular spiritual concept that you are wrong. Perhaps all beliefs are right in spirit and tolerance of others interpretation of the spirit is the path that
God awaits for humanity's realization.

I love how the vast majority of history is based around stories written down hundreds of years after the apparent events and we lend credibility to it. Why waste life doing this? lol Why waste life repeating what others have said and making documentaries filled with we dont know for sure but. .but we'll have a guess. Historians have a very low threshold for determining whether an event took place, it's laughable.

Interesting facts.
Seems to be a bit of confusion brought about by different historical sources, and sagas.
Seems that Ivar was quiet a clever chap.
His naval competency at a time when the English were sitting ducks gave him a huge advantage and almost able to land at will, and dissappear as it would seem.

Regarding Ivar being the same as Imair; in Scottish Gaelic (and presumably Irish has similar roots) there is no letter V in the alphabet but there are words with the V sound that come from use of the letters M or B, often in conjunction with an H. So Imair would possibly still be pronounced Ivar.

Imar and Ivar the Boneless are clearly one and the same. If it's true what was written about him, King of Dublin, Ivar the Boneless, was certainly a bad boy but, undoubtedly, also a great leader. As they say, great men are almost always bad men.

Can we not see ridiculous political ads while learning about real history? Im not sure if you can control ads, but if you can, please, please stop airing them. Listening to a cheating, Alzheimers stricken antique, isnt necessary.

If you trace my family's line back far enought (MacAulay) we are connected by a number of Norse kings of Dublin, The Isles, and Jorvik (Northumbria. The line hits a snag on a mysterious person call Imar. In the mid 800's.

Vikings were judged by how they provided by the vikings themselves in agriculture. He would have been dealt with severely and killed by the same vikings. I know no one will believe me but it is true. He wouldn't have lived.

Excellent documentary analogy I was a little disappointed because I was hoping that it would be more about ivar the boneless and less about a series of years of conquerors and kings but content was absolutely excellent

Now because of uneducated fans of the show Vikings. Most people actually believe Ivan was a cripple when he just very likely couldn't get a hard on. Nearly the biggest misinterpretation of Scandinavian history.

Vikings series got it wrong. Ivar had a child Ranald Ivarsson. Including his many descendants like Somerled and John Lord of the Isles. If your last name or lineage is to MacDonald clan he's your relative.

The Ui Imair. The House of Ivarr. The Crovan Dynasty. Ivarr was one of the greatest warriors to have ever come out of Denmark. And the greatest King of the Norse-Gaels and Hiberno-Danes who has ever lived.

Ivar didn't torture and kill Edmund. Edmund was feeling a bit sick, and Ivar merely practiced some Viking acupuncture. Unfortunately it didn't help Edmund's health. A real humanitarian that Ivar. ;-)
