In 2014, the episode ‘Blood Eagle’ was released and it copied the Red Wedding episode of Game of Thrones.
The Game of Thrones and Vikings series are certainly not the nicest series out there. The successful epic series that have now been completed contain a lot of violence and bloody scenes.
The episode The Rains of Castamere was released in 2013 as part of the third season of Game of Thrones. That episode is known for the Red Wedding. During the famous GoT wedding, almost everyone present is killed in a gruesome manner.
Vikings surpasses
In 2014, Vikings showed that things can be a step more intense. In this case it is not about the number of deaths, but the brutal way in which the character Jarl Borg, played by Thorbjørn Har, meets his end.
Borg is killed by the “Blood Eagle” in the season two episode Blood Eagle. This would have been a brutal ritual that Vikings would have performed on their most hated enemies.
Blood Eagle
Below you can see the brutal scene from Vikings and this scene is still seen as the brutalest from the complete series that concluded in 2020 after six seasons.
In the episode, before unleashing the “Blood Eagle” on Borg, Ragnar utters the following: “The perpetrator gets down on his knees and his back is opened with knives. And then his ribs are cut off from his spine with axes, and then his lungs are pulled out of this enormous bleeding wound and placed on his shoulders, so that they resemble the folded wings of a great eagle.”
Continue to suffer
“And so he must continue to suffer – until he dies. If he suffers in silence, he may enter Valhalla. But if he screams, he can never enter it,” said the brutal words of the brutal murder.
You find Vikings in its entirety on Netflix.
