Today I learnt a little bit about vikings in my lunch break.

Was quite interested to read about the fierce Besrkr warriors who often went into battle unarmoured and worked themselves into a wild frenzy beforehand. Theoretical reasons for the famed frenzy range from totemism to consumption of fly agarics or alcohol.

Beserkr blood still flows strongly through the veins of UK viking descendants. In town centres up and down the country of a Sat'dy night, young men become unknowingly possessed by the spirits of bears and wolves after consuming ten pints of Guinness and bite each other's ears off before smashing a breezeblock through the window of Kwiksave. I have seen it many times....it is our cultural heritage.
