Top Fights In Vikings

History Channel's Vikings was a great show filled with epic battles of Norse warriors fighting and hitting. Here are the best fights. It's hard to find a TV show with as many exciting and memorable battles as Vikings. This work of historical fiction draws on a majestic set of actual Viking history and Norse lore, as it traces important events in Scandinavia in the Middle Ages and the rise of Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel). Vikings are unique in their raw sense of authenticity coupled with a wonderful sense of mythology and cinematic bombast. So let's grab our swords and set sail as we take a look at the best and most memorable Viking battle scenes.

The first battle of the Vikings against England (season 1, episode 4):

This skirmish between Ragnar's Viking band and the soldiers of northern Umbria has a certain simplicity, and that's what makes it so fascinating. Of course, there is a lot of exciting action and great choreography, but the reduced nature of the scene makes it seem more realistic.

England's beachfront location, after the Vikings abandoned their ships after sailing the Kattegat, evokes a sense of wonder and adventure with a hint of uncertainty. This is one of the first times that Ragnar and his Viking warriors discovered lands to the west, causing a stir. It acts as a small introduction to the escalating chaos and the action that will eventually follow.
