Harald Sigurdsson: Harald III of Norway | Viking Documentary

Harald Sigurdsson III of Norway, or Harald Hardråde as was his epithet - the latter roughly translating to a number of contested meanings: ‘hard ruler’, ‘tyrant’, ‘ruthless’ or ‘tyrannical’, is renowned as the last Norwegian King of the Vikings. A well-versed traveller and seasoned warrior, Harald had already fought and lived across the globe: in Norway and Russia, on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, in Iraq, and Sicily, before his famously unsuccessful attempt to wrestle Britain from the English King, Harold of Wessex. It was this attempt in 1066, that culminated with the bloody slaughter of over 7,000 Viking warriors at the Battle of Stamford Bridge, including Harald himself, and thus the recognised end of the notorious Viking Age. But who was Hardråde? How did this formidable Norwegian warrior king meet his gory fate on that field in Yorkshire? And how, ultimately, did he irrevocably change the course of history?
