Going for a short stroll in the forest sounds like a lovely time, but for a Viking prisoner the offer of a walk could promise a whole world of pain. Vikings were brutal people and did inflict serious levels of torture on their captives, from imprisonment on board their ships to a life of slavery in the barren wastes of Greenland. However, the sagas also seem to tell of a number of brutal execution methods employed by the Vikings – the infamous Blood Eagle, but also Hung Meat and the one we’re exploring in this video: the fatal walk.
