Always wondered when Jackson would find himself on OdinFans

Purposely making the audio quality as sh*t as possible is a top-tier bit

You see a whole new side to him during April 1st and I love it.

The megaphone joke is so good!!!

I like how the Thorinsons accent starts off with an Icelandic touch, moves towards an Arnold Schwarzenegger accent and progressively gets more and more stereotypically Scandinavian, but how Americans think Scandinavians sound, like flamboyant Germans. And at the very end he straight up sounds Danish.

Definition of take what you do seriously but don’t take yourself too seriously. Love it haha

*__*

That is such a low effort Viking costume. I love it.

The Duolingo shade was majestic

This was amazing!! I laughed so hard at the evangelist Odin bit!! The guy's like, "No thanks" and the viking dude just rams in, sword in hand, like say hello to my not so little friend! Also loved that blond Thorensson bloke, the top viking expert!! This was great, thank you!

She: "The Pole" Me: *imagining polish person*

the button up shirt stripping was incredible and hilarious.

You know, i really do like this New and Improved KZfaq Channel. Forever shall we embrace Dr. Thorinson

Just when I thought you couldn't get any cooler you go and drop this 😂 Found it absolutely hilarious I love it!!

This was absolutely hilarious 😆 These April fools videos of yours are very unique. I especially loved the lightsaber segment, because I know there is a Kenning (I don’t quite remember which one) for Sword that is translated as “Battle Light” 😉

I’m always willing to hear the good news of Odin

I think we need Thorinson to reappear for particularly - intelligent takes you want to respond to. 😁

Can anybody please make some fanart of Dr. Gásvaldur Thorinsson killing jotnar at Ragnarok with a lightsaber? I am willing to pay for it.

I lost it when the third button up shirt came off. Brilliant. 😂 💀

The pronunciation disclaimer at the barely-audible mention of Havamal

You had me until I remembered what day it was.

The megaphone joke, despite being expected, still got me

I thought "Embrace The Pole" was a good reference to Odin's self-sacrifice to the World Tree as the Axis Mundi (the "celestial pole"). Yeah I'm fun at parties...

Dr. Crawford, why is your Scandinavian accent so camp? You got me again sir, you got me again.

a viking with a lightsaber is unimaginably based

I love the historical accuracy of that viking costume!

Every time Dr. Gásvaldur Þorinsson came on screen I thought of Othar Tryggvassen! Gentleman Adventurer!. They must be related somehow...

The best one yet. I laughed out loud when I saw the horned helmet.

Him asking someone who learns on Duolingo to give grammar lessons made me finally laugh hard enough to hurt myself. Thank you sir! This was entertaining all the way through!

Gasvaldur Thorinsson is gold, Jackson. Gold. This is the channel saver.

Finally you made all the changes I've been hoping for. I have, in fact, been planning to write you a letter suggesting all these things.

I would LOVE to have Odin's Witnesses come to my house!

Am I the only one disappointed that Dr. Gásvaldur Þorinsson's website doesn't actually exist? Top stuff, every second. 10/10 would subscribe again. 😂😂😂

Maybe you could create a channel about Vikings, but directed only at the Finnish market. You could call it *OnlyFinns.*

Hah, "Crawford"-good one, Dr. Þorinsson!

These are the greatest linguistic improvements ever proposed in the history of scandinavia. Please make a video next on why we should replace all modern north germanic languages with old norse! Happy April!

Shea breaking character at 0:20 when she says, "Those button ups get me going."😂

I like the idea of a deliciously manly viking who heeds FDA guidelines on Q-tip usage.

RIP Johnny, you were a real one.

How you ended up sounding like a famous Austrian bodybuilder I don't know. But I love it. I mean who could fail to love the combination of Old Norse expertise and Star Wars? That's like a gourmet hamburger with extra gourmet hamburger!

so many great details, I love that Ásvaldur Þorinson is written in elder futhark

Finally a channel update I can get behind!

This is by far the best video on all of KZfaq

Dr. Þorinsson reminds me of the old youtube days when it was still new and people didn't take themselves so seriously in the production of goofy skits. It was just people having a good time! Also the flamboyant german accent freaking killed me 😂

Oh, hey, my lightsaber makes the same "power on" sound 😅

The constant complaining about being oppressed by Christianity got me

Idk how many times I'm going to have to watch this because it gets better every time, son. Love you.

Brilliant! I always look forward to these, and you never disappoint. This might be the best one yet!!

Thank you for the laughs!

What a pleasant funny surprise this morning. This just brightened my day, so funny.

Amazing as always. You’re an amazing person and an amazing content creator and we’re lucky to have you.

Hot damn. Smokin! Did you sell your everlastin soul or what? ❤ Love you so much! Baldour rocks. Nice hound. 😂

RIP Johnny 😢

This was hilarious! I love this tradition!

He's so unhinged i love him

Dr. Thorinson's pronunciation of Hávamál is where I lost it Also the one time I messed with those kind of toy lightsabers went just like that

This made me really laugh! And I was wondering how long it would take before a light sabre appeared 😂, I'm so glad I subscribe to your channel ❤

I would love a second channel devoted entirely to Dr. Gásvaldur Þorinsson?

I LOVE this!! I love your seriousness and dedication to information but it is so refreshing and fun to see something that is just pure fun and silliness! ❤ You’re awesome!

Didn't think you could to Surtrs gunpowder, but here we are.

We love you so much! -All the fans

The man has a glorious sense of humor!!! Cheers to the Doctor!!!!!

This is the funniest April Fools thing I've seen in years... thanks for making these, I laughed my butt off!!

You and our channel are spectacular.

Glad to see you enjoying the holiday 😂❤

LOL THE MEGAPHONE. that part made me cackle. excellent video

Best one ever. I kept laughing so hard I scared my poor dog. Thanks Dr Crawford.

I need Dr. Crawford to take the CU athletic director job just so he can make videos with Deion Sanders.

Dammit man, I was trying to eat my lunch! The megaphone bit got me! Also CUTE PUPPY in a box! Looks a bit like my Jack.

The megaphone was actually a good idea.

Absolutely slayed every second! 😂 Scream laughing over here.

These videos are a tradition at this point. The only April 1st vids i care about.

I'm approaching this one cautiously, y'all. Remember the outstanding April Fool's vid from last year.

I must say that I honestly really like this side of you and the energy that you put into this video! I love your videos! Like a lot! I watch almost every single one. The thing I would say is that sometimes your neutralness about some of the topics comes off a little bit like you don’t enjoy or like what you are talking about or as if you’re a little bit above this specific topic etc. I respect you so much but it kinda feels sometimes like you dislike talking about whatever you talk about! I think it is because of you trying to stay professional and not give away your personal feelings on the subject? Just a few thoughts! I will keep watching and supporting you no matter what! Loved this video haha!

Bloody love the way the obligatory explanation of the reconstructed pronounciation just bops in and immediately fades away in the megaphone gag 😂

Always knew there was something familiar, I too, am a modern viking who denies the rumor of my birth in Houston TX 😂😂

jesus. what a ride lmao

That was certainly a different video, haha. Funny stuff Drengr Crawford.

I love everything about this entire video. Friendship is sharing knives, man. And LARPing!

By Oðinn’s beard what did I just watch

OMG I am dying. This is so bad but soooooo good. Who knew he could be so funny?? I think I lost it at the plastic horned Viking helmet. And The flannel striptease.... just no. Dude, this could have been at least ten different skits. Too much snark! All at once!

I mean, I love the videos from the rest of the year, but your April Fools videos are always my favorite. 🤣

Perfect. On board for the new channel. Great!

Honestly, the thing that made me chuckle the most: GARMR THE FIERCE VIKING BATTLE DOG... WAFFLES Well done. (And Waffles is an apt name for the pup!)

this is my favourite time of year just because of these videos.

I love the Danish-ish accent! 😂

Hlakka til að sjá meira af doktor Gásvaldi. Einmitt það sem þessi rás þarfnaðist. 🤔

This is brilliant haha

One with an _untwistable_ stomach! 💪

Jackson Crawford: an American scholar, translator and poet who specializes in old norse Also Jackson Crawford: 6:33

This is amazing, just messing around lol, I funnied 👍

EVERYTHING has escalated. Nothing will ever be the same again

Sir, you are a true hero. May your name echo forever in the halls of all the nine worlds.

Why is the bad Scandinavian accent louder than his natural voice 😂

Man, this video was wonderful. Peak production and it looked like you had a lot of fun with it! Was looking forward to all the April Fools videos that would pop up today and this has to be one of the best

Excellent! The best April 1st video yet!

Great vid lol! Had me chuckling and laughing the whole way through.

Note to self, there is Wind in the Rockies...

This is absolutely golden!

Happy April! Especially love the music!
