There was plenty of slavery back then. The Vikings took slaves whenever they came, either for trading or to keep themselves.

I keep saying this too! We've even found modern items that were lost such as aeroplanes which makes the current narrative even more ridiculous.

These were under the snow but above the ice cap, you see. There’s a big difference.

Oh no past global warming!!!!!

This earth has survived even more catastrophic conditions than we have now look at the Big Bang that wiped out the entire planet but after a very long time the planet evolved and will do again in many thousand/million years

@@TheBuntajames Or the narrative.

It snows and then it becomes buried deeper and deeper 🤷🏻‍♂️ same way as things get buried deeper into the soil, it’s not because there was less soil historically I.e. it’s wrong to suggest there was less ice then and therefor warmer than it is today. Really not that hard to work it out.

There was no snow or ice at this time at this altitude because the climate was in the midst of Viking Age warming.

man made global warming? from 4000 years ago?

It was once much warmer despite them not burning any fossil fuels. The one thing which should be ttaken from this is that climate change is entirely natural and that current temperatures are by no means unprecendented, as claimed by the climate alarmists.

Awesome and to think in just another 1000 years and it will be back under 20M of ice

@@differous01 Yes because anything was constant or consistent for 7000 years. We can barely tell our history from the last 500 years let alone 7000.

Obviously, the glaciers weren't there then. Which kind of pokes holes in man made climate change. But we won't mention that.

👍👍

We should be glad to see the glaciers melting. It was warmer during the height of the Viking times than today. Then came the terrible middle ice age and the cold, combined with the plague, wiped out two thirds of the inhabitants of Norway so that the political structure collapsed. Maybe a little global warming is good for a bunch of creatures that came out of the African savannah.

Why are naturally occuring variations in temperature, and thus ice levels, sad?

​@@streuthmonkey1Well, you're clearly trying to deny basic physics and chemistry of the CO2 greenhouse effect. You can list the reasons that motivate you to deny the science?

@@fungussa You just highlighted the problem with you alarmists. It isn't just basic physics and chemistry. You oversimplify an open system based on experiments with a closed system. You ignore the diminishing returns that CO2 has as a greenhouse gas as concentrations rise. You ignore the fact that atmospheric CO2 concentration have not driven temperature for almost the entirety of Earth's existence including all the time there has been life on Earth, just as it does not drive it now. Atmospheric CO2 concentrations have followed global average temperature with a lag of hundreds to thousands of years, during which CO2 continued to rise while temperatures dropped and vice versa. This is what is happening now. Atmopspheric CO2 concentrations are rising in response to the warming period which has coincided with the industrial era. Our current warming period began 30 years before industrialisation and it was this warming as we left the Little Ice Age which created the conditions for industrialisation to occur. Innevitable CO2 concentrations have risen in response, the vast majority of the rise being entirely natural. You ignore the fact that by far the most abundant, effective and variable greenhouse gas is water vapour. In fact just the daily variability of its effect eclipses the total effect of atmospheric CO2. You ignore the various ways that changes in solar activity effect the climate. You ignore the important role of Galactic Cosmic Rays on variability of water vapour/ liquid water in the atmosphere and thus on cloud formation and you underestimate the cooling role of clouds by at least 70%. You ignore the fact that the current rate and scale of change is not unprecendented. There have been far more rapid and greater increases in the past. For example at the end of the Pleistocene the temperature in Greenland rose 7 degrees C in 50-100 years, a far faster and greater rise than that we are currently observing. You ignore the fact that we are currently in the coolest interglacial period of our current ice age. Incomplete failed models and 50 years of failed predictions are the reason I deny the ridiculous claims the climate alarmists continue to make. Claims that get more extreme as time goes on despite less extreme ones not having come to pass. They seem to have only learnt one thing in 50 years. To make longer term predictions so they aren't alive, or at least not active in the field, when they innevitably fail.

The guy at 5:07 said the ice had been there for 7000 years. People dropped things in the snow and did not realize it was gone, or simply could not find it, and it remained covered until the present day.

​@@EinsteinsHairthey only listen to what they want to hear. The things that fit their narrative. They can't fathom that 2000 years ago, when the horse was wearing the snowshoe that was found, it was because the horse was walking ON SNOW, not on a jagged rock and boulder field. It doesn't cross their mind that they have been finding different eras of things as the snow melts because the snow built up over the centuries and now it's melting. No, they just hear their dumb friend or politician saying, ", climate change isn't real" and, lacking any critical thinking of their own, run with it.

yes, it's getting worse. Today I open Twitter or "X" for the first time in a year, and the amount of confident stupidity in every single post was depressing and crazy-making.

@@Yowzoe No, we just know our history about Vikings farming on Greenland and vineyards in England and a little ice age. Asking ourselves what is the normal temperature of the Earth and how do you know that? Then we activate that Betz cells in the cerebral cortex and ask, does this climate change story add up or no? If it gets hotter it is 'climate change" if it gets colder it is also 'climate change'. Then we ask ourselves why are ocean front properties so expensive? If they will be flooded in a few years.

Caused by all the Roman motor cars no doubt

@@oldman2800 👍👍🤣

They travelled by skis and with snow shoes for horses….

Probably even less than there is now. Skis and snow shoes are used on snow, which does fall in every winter in that part of the world.

I'm guessing that crevices in the past, might allow the newer artifacts to drop down to the older artifacts.

It makes sense because claimate alarmists are liars and, despite their claims to the contrary, current temperatures and rates of change are not unprecedented and are entirely natural rather than the result of human activity.

If a glacier is 7000 years old it's cold enough to snow. If it's cold enough to snow the artifacts get buried in the snowpack over time. A glacier is not a single block of ice, but rather a massive slow moving sheet that's changing shape. If you leave an object on it the object sinks slowly.

You know it can be both right? Not just one or the other.@@streuthmonkey1

​@@streuthmonkey1That's fiction. Every single prediction of mankind increasing the CO2 greenhouse effect has been shown to be true. Everything from satellite data working that the upper atmosphere is cooling whilst the lower atmosphere is warming, to the rapid increase in atmospheric water vapor etc, has been shown to be true. Your denial of basic physics and chemistry is not an excuse.

Why is it bittersweet?

@@rushlimbaughrevolutionchannel well i would explain it to you, but with a name "rushlimbaughrevolutionchannel" i don't think you'd understand or accept it

Nothing bitter about it. The glaciers are mostly dead and we are allegedly descendants of monkeys from the savannahs of Africa. Either way, culture thrived during the Viking age (medieval warm times) and then population collapsed during the mini ice age. So certainly warm climate is good for us.

LOL! Insanity...

This proves it was warmer 2000 years ago.

The "viking age" is considered to be the period between AD 793 and AD 1066, during what is known as the Medieval Warm Period, which followed on from the Roman Warn Period, which followed on from the Minoan Warm Period. It's almost like life and civilisation benefit from warm weather. 🤔

@@Oinnelstan It can take tens of thousands of years for a glacier to melt. If you’re implying that the glacier suddenly vanished and somehow appeared again in the span of 1000 years then you are trippin. The glacier is what made the route an option in the first place.

@@FredrikSkievanSea levels were higher during the Medieval Warm Period. Why? Less polar ice coverage. This is consistent with paleological data from Greenland, Iceland (flora and fauna types, distribution) etc. Yes, some glaciers do seem to retreat at a leisurely pace, but as your use of the word "can" indicates, some glaciers retreat very swiftly indeed! The wheels are starting to fall off the anthropomorphically caused CO2 driven global warming nonsense. It's a cult, nothing more. For those that believe the CO2 nonsense (and wish to make a positive contribution), turn off your computers, phones etc. and disconnect from the internet, as the infrastructure required to power it all is now one of the single largest consumers of electricity in the world! Yes, all this data is but naught more than electrons. But, hey, the likelihood of my words changing your mind is just as astronomically small as yours changing mine, so we continue to polarise and tribalise until the inevitable happens. The weather is starting to warm up here in Tasmania, the grass is growing tall, the bees are abuzzing. Earth awakens from her cold slumber once more. Be well.

@@FredrikSkievan You said, "It can take tens of thousands of years for a glacier to melt." That is totally untrue, a glacier can melt in less than 100 years. Many have receded dramatically since the late 1800's. See my c*annel.

glaciers move back and forth... it is not really surprising. the myth of man made climate change is exposed as a fraud once again

Not so long ago the ice was not in the places we have become used to seeing it.

What is terrifying is how many people have fallen for the global warming scam.

The tree line used to be closer to the north pole. Terrifying.

Why is this terrifying?

There were no settlements there, travellers and hunters, that's all. If it was so warm how did these artefacts survive ? A 1700 year old garment would have rotted long since.

@@stephenhowell5611 where did the hunters live, settlements, they went out hunting or headed off to trade with other settlements. The planet was hella warm 2000 years ago. In the middle ages we went thru a major cooling period called the little ice age. It made winters harsh in northern Europe burying previously inhabited areas. That's how the shirt survived buried in ice n snow.

What? What’s your point?

@@vincentchauvet6654 You have no evidence for that. Ice melt can be extremely rapid, as can the advance of glaciers. Humans are not part of the equation.

No. They walked over the snow and ice, which is why they found snow shoes for horses.

So, do you break into houses, kill the strongest and take the rest for slaves?

Carnuntum was a large Roman trading city in todays northern Austria, due to analysis of flower pollen and cave stalactites they could figure out that the climate was 3 to 4 degrees warmer until the 2nd century AD. But they are refusing to make a propper conclusion and avoid to question the climate change agenda!

Of course the climate does have natural variability. But the climate change that people are worried about is demonstrably man made, extremely rapid, and it will likely be far more extensive than anything humans have seen over the entire historical record. Moreover it is compounding multiple other ecological crises that we are also causing at the same time. We're setting ourselves up for a massive slow motion catastrophe.

@@jellekastelein7316 how do we know the climate change wasn't rapid 1000 years ago?

But because of the massive human population and all the gasses we have released into the atmosphere, that green house warming has been boosted.. it's so huge that we have managed to force climate changes more deeply and rapidly than what nature's timeline would unveil. But is that a bad thing if it's all a natural occurrence anyway? Well, yes! We are diluting the atmosphere and changing the natural landscape that balances those processes... We could be looking at creating climates that in the future will cause ourselves trouble, And maybe a premature de-habit of the earth (Ok that's serious timeline thinking but just putting it out there) I'm no self absorbed hippy tree hugger following Greta 🤣I'm just making observations.

Look up The Year Without A Summer, 536 A.D., and the Burckle Impact Megatsunami. We`re on borrowed time right now.

If Campi Flegrei erupts the way it has in the past, and it`s just one out of dozens of equally dangerous volcanoes ticking away towards their next big booms....say goodbye to billions and and all the rest of this temporary stuff. Europe will be covered in ash and the sun will be dimmed beyond belief for a very long time.

Hello 👋 how are you doing today..?

of course it will melt. The problem is the *acceleration* of the speed of the melt because of human-caused climate change. The speed of the transition is like nothing ever before, and the earth's flora and fauna are not able to keep up, with disastrous results in about 1000 different ways for not only humans but for all living things…which our descendants will have to deal with thanks to *some* people now sticking their heads in the sand.

Every 12,000 years for millenia

​@willf5442 and what rate is that? There were two glacial melting surges that increased sea levels by 200 meters around 16000 to 10000 years ago. The rate now is a a few mm to cm a year depending mostly on local rise/rebound or ground sinking.

Actually it has not, possibly. maybe most of it has only been there for less than a thousand years. They recently dated the Tibetan glaciers with a new method and found that they are way younger than originally thought.

@@willf5442 Slower than in the past. What is there to worry about?

I am thinking the same. 😊

In a perfect carbon balanced world Norway is to be permanently covered in ice... for the good of the planet you bigots

No, they walked on top of the snow/ice, that's why they find skies etc, also raindeers was up in the ice, probably to escape from insects I guess, and they where hunted, for some reason they get scared by sticks etc, so the hunters put them up to guide the animals
