Do you want to remember how Ragnar and Athelstan first met? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLaCfMaS1Z20YaM.html

He doesn’t fully understand how heaven works in Christianity, he figures “heavens”, like the sky, so he buries him as high as possible so it’d be easier for Athelstan to go to heaven.

Ragnar loved him more than any of his wives lol

the perfect world in Kattegat was when Ragnar was living with Lagertha, the two kids and Athelstan in the same home.

“I hope that someday that our God’s become friends” Such unbelievably beautiful words.

Ragnar: I HATE YOU, for leaving me

Find someone who looks at you the way Ragnar looks at Athelstan.

I don't think I've ever seen a show capture a pure friendship as well as they did. Their bond was something special I've never seen replicated. Really loved when he was choosing to stay and Ragnar says "if you change your mind, your friends will be leaving at first light" as a way to signal that although he's annoyed by his decision, he still loves him and wants the best for him and just hopes he comes with him for his safety.

Aethelstan, "I am born again" Ragnar, "what do you mean 'born again'? Like a baby?"

If a man admits to loving another man unromantically, you know that their friendship is one of great importance and impossible deniability. A bond that is built by respect, struggle, and trust. They do an amazing job of showing the past between them that we never get to see. 10/10 here. I love it

The only person Ragnar didn't look to the ground when telling him he loved him, straight into the eyes lol.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="350">5:50</a> love how Ragnar protected Athelstan from the arrow. He knows what to look for

Athelstan revealed the side of Ragnar that Ragnar refused to show anyone else, not even his sons. Ragnar was forced to be cold and indifferent with all others, but not with his best friend.

Their relationship is so intimate it could easily be mistaken for romantic but I love how they make it clear they are brothers and dear friends and nothing more

The look they share when Ragnar says “wherever you go.. I will follow.” Was SO intense. Truly a soulmate situation.

You gotta love that Floki repeatedly goes like "man why doesn't Ragnar look at me that way?"

I miss the earlier seasons of this show so much

I miss this show. So much love for brotherhood ragnar and athelstan like real brothers 💪

Althestan was his soft spot.

I hope someday our gods will become friends. Is one of my favorite lines.

Ragnar had such an open mind and thus he was so very successful ❤

Mutual respect and love between men of different faiths. Take this as an example, people.

"If i can help king horik, id gladly stay" broke Ragnars heart instantly

This just reminds of the worst thing Floki ever did, and I loved Floki and Aethelstan as characters.

After Ragnar lost the priest he was no longer the same as he said that who will now consult him he was dearly lost

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="569">9:29</a> when Ragnar looks sad thinking Athelstan is going to leave him.

I fell out of love with this show after their deaths. Ragnar’s character and their relationship was the most interesting thing about this series. It made more than just a spectacle of action and intrigue.

The true love story of the show

One of the best and purest friendships ever in human history.

The best bromance ever ❤

There is no love that compares to a love between brothers. Blood or not. The bond is like no other.

Athelstan was the brother Ragnar never had. Yes, shots at Rollo

He loved him as a brother teaching and learning things from each other. You see it in his eyes when he said you can't leave me I love you. as if twins and the bond would have been broken. I dare say he love him more than rollo. some times it's not the brothers we are given in life but the 1s we choose

I watched this show from the start and loved it. I never once thought their relationship was romantic it was deeper than that and I think most people saw that too. Much credit to the actors, they were wonderful and made Ragnar and Athelstan come to life in a real way.

Ragnars acting brought this show to life

One of the most heartbreaking deaths in all of TV.

this show will always be near and dear to my heart.

I wish they kept Athelstan alive a little bit longer. I really do feel like he died too early in season three. I wanted to see more of Ragnar and Athelstan there wasn’t enough adventures of them together.

This relationship dynamic was so genuine on screen and just amazing.

He Loved Athelstan more than his own brother. RAGNAR brother is coward & a back stabber.. Athelstan had more Courage to me because he said the Truth..

back when Europe was still huge forest area...must have been so beautiful once when still mostly wild..as is the rain forest today ..

Finally Ragnar prove it true friendship is more then god's ❤😢

A clash of religion and culture: altruistic trait, and goodwill towards each other(not romantic), genuine friendship.... it is rare to find, ...

Ragnars farewell hits every time.

Such a friendship....

Athelstan was the only one who was truly loyal to Ragnar

Athelstan was his humanity. Ragnar was shown as human a human can be given what he lived in.

The one time I cried was during that last scene. Ragnar lost his brother

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="342">5:42</a> This... is why Ragnar is the LEGEND

This will probably come out as arrogant and prideful, but I believe I have been an Athelstan to many of my friends. Before I met them, they'd say that they were brutes, silent, rough, depressed. Through my kindness and gentleness, they transformed into better, soft heearted men.

Vikings should have won multiple awards including the actors. Such a shame. Ragnar and Aethelstan's relationship was great to watch. It not only showed how much of a pioneer and trailblazer that Ragnar was as a person but also how open minded he was to concepts and thoughts that were not his own nor part of his culture. Its that thinking that allowed him and his sons to have so much fame and success. That mindset allowed him to develop a brotherhood bond with Aethelstan. The conversations and time spent really highlight how much goes into developing friendships and bonds that stand the test of hardships and challenges. Ragnar challenged Aethelstan and his way of life and thinking and Aethelstan did the same. In the end it expanded their capacity to think for themselves and own their own choices and decisions in relation to their journeys and those around them.

Ragnar was EVERYTHING. I forgot how much I LOVED this show.

The last part is such a powerful scene.

I watched this show until Ragnor died. After that I couldn’t watch it anymore. He was the show and without him it was not the same

This series is so profound..so so profound!!

My favorite tv show friendship ever

If only we could all meet our own athelstans

Well.... Im just in the end of Vikings series... I missed Ragnar so much so i started again from season 1

This show was amazing for 5 seasons

Ragnar was wise he sought knowledge more than anything

Im so glad they didnt turn this into anything spicy. Ragnar "I believe" saw a innocence in that man, innocence he probably once had and lost, and hasnt seen it since for a long time. Also saw a brother. A peace. A trust. An admiration. But nothing... Spicy lol

A Great Bond of Brotherhood displayed for all to see So Wholesome and True A Love for Your Brother in Arms and Your Brother in Life Itself Well Done by All the Cast, Crew, Writers and Directors of this Fine Series !! Travis Fimmel pulls you in to the Emotions, The Spirituality, and Love the Character he portrayed experienced.

A Bromance is a beautiful thing between two dude ❤

The way Ragnar looks at him is like a little brother that he's overprotective of.

The Greatest love . Not sexual. LOVE

This is what a true friendship works

This was the moment ragnar broke.

“ you live here now, this is your world “…😅

i need to be treated like ragnar treats athelstan.....

To be young and in love.

No. Ill gladly come with you. Me: Aww I hope one day our gods can become friends. Me:AWWWWWW

I believe that because of the genuine love and admiration these two had for one another their God's definitely met at least, cause there was noway they were going to be kept apart

I hope that someday our gods can become friends,,,shortly you are my friend..ragnar had a friend from this Man .

Truly one of my top 3 shows of all time

They were like Damon & Alaric

He carried him up the hill and i criiiiied 😫😫

Thank you so much,this is my favorite parts,it was the monk that I watched this show for.

Fav scene so far is in the beginning of Season 3 where Ragnar is begging Athelstan to tell him about Paris, again.

at The Last Kingsom, Aethelstan is King Edward's son which is under Uhtred protection from his childhood.

He even gave him a proper christian burial 😭

Their relationship is the best!

Man I miss these 2

Top series

Maximum BROMANCE

I have a great friend that’s loyal and unfortunately like folki lol

I love to see platonic love

As someone who has had this conversation with my best friend...😢

Protection means never saying goodbye hope the poet understands

Needed this

j'ai adoré le lien singulier que partageait ses deux hommes!😍😍😍😍😍😍

The show simply could not keep up this quality of characters and relationships. Once Ragnar died this show dropped heavy

Find someone in life that looks at you the way Ragnor looks at Althestan

Watching it again from season 1 king ragnar 💪

GREAT MOVIES 🤩🤩🤩

Oohh Floki…

I never knew what a martyr was?/laughing/ than instantly serious “I still don’t !” Pokerface Am I the only one who finds it hilarious?

The title of this video should be The Best of Ragnar and Athelstan's Love Story

Best bromance in tv History

We all want to have this Viking best friend, don’t we?

Floki took this from us 💔
