Greater than a decade after its launch, I\u2019m nonetheless fascinated by the infamous\u00a0Techno Viking video.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s one thing indescribably charming about it. I discover myself watching the clip a minimum of a number of instances a 12 months. I can attempt to clarify it, however its thriller evades writing. Each little element within the video merely falls completely into place, as if it was staged. However it wasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

The place do I begin? Bear with me all through this synopsis \u2014 or scroll down to observe the precise video first.<\/p>\n

The video opens with a girl in a vivid, cyan wig awkwardly dancing to a techno observe (\u201cNavigator\u201d by Can-D-Music) in broad daylight. She\u2019s not the one topic in sight \u2014 she\u2019s dancing subsequent to a crowd of ravers \u2014 however she\u2019s undeniably the main target of the acton as much as that time. Out of nowhere, a visibly intoxicated man steps into the body and considerably aggressively bumps into her.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if his actions are intentional, however he rapidly begins strolling away after bumping into the lady. That is when the true protagonist of the video steps in: the person now famously referred to as the\u00a0techno viking<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Shirtless, the techno viking grabs the intoxicated man by the wrist, and swiftly catches his different wrist, too. The techno viking, who\u2019s completely jacked and sporting denim shorts, mean-mugs the intoxicated man, tells him off, and lets go of him, pointing in a route past the body. The intoxicated man begins strolling in that route, and leaves the body.<\/p>\n

The techno viking retains mean-mugging him, gazing him for a great 10 seconds. He then lifts his finger once more and \u2014 I assume \u2014 retains pointing on the intoxicated man for an additional six seconds a minimum of.<\/p>\n

Then, nearly as if on cue, a random man strolling in from the background pulls a water bottle\u00a0out of his bag, approaches the techno viking, and hovers the bottle \u2014 which for some motive he holds upside-down \u2014 proper in entrance of the techno viking\u2019s face. With out even turning his head, the techno viking grabs the bottle,\u00a0and solely then acknowledges the person by glancing in his route.<\/span><\/p>\n

He opens the bottle and proceeds to drink from it. A number of gulps later, he returns the bottle to the man.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no telling if there\u2019s one thing within the water, however the techno viking appears invigorated. He instantly begins dancing in a ahead movement, each transfer of his sticking proper to the rhythm of the tune within the background. The group that was lethargically dancing now follows him as he marches ahead.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

One other random gentleman emerges from the group and arms the techno viking a leaflet. Once more, with out even turning his head, the techno viking picks up the leaflet, nonetheless frivolously dancing. The gentleman exits the body. The observe within the background modifications (<\/em>\u201cSave Adjustments and Exit\u201d by\u00a0Winstan vs. Noia)<\/span>.<\/em> The techno viking pauses for a second to take a peek on the leaflet. He then folds it, factors at somebody out of sight and mumbles one thing indistinctly, as he concurrently rips the leaflet aside and\u00a0drops its to the bottom. He\u2019s dancing all through all of this.<\/p>\n

The cameraperson briefly turns their lens to the left to disclose the techno viking was speaking to the man who initially ran into the lady within the cyan wig. They then flip the lens again<\/span>\u00a0to the techno viking who\u2019s nonetheless dancing.\u00a0Sooner or later, one other man approaches the techno viking, who turns round to have interaction in dialog, and walks away from the digital camera.<\/p>\n

The video fades to black and we see an intertitle studying \u201cFuckparade, 2000.\u201d Fin.<\/p>\n
