I’ve seen it so many times by now but never ceases to amaze me how perfectly it happened, like it was choreographed. People bringing him water and then just falling in to follow him as he dances down the street. Doesn’t even look back.
All glory to the techno viking.

Upside-down water!

The dance might have been planned and the guy butting without notice got caught in the video before everything progressed. And so they didn’t cut it out, maybe?
clif@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Pretty sure I read an explanation and it was choreographed. Now… If I could find it…

I’ve been down this rabbit hole before. This is the only source I know that claims to have any actual info. Could be all made up of course.

Isn’t this like 20 years old? Not that it is an issue, just saying.

You haven’t seen it much for a reason.

That’s good to know, i will refrain from posting the video to respect this man’s privacy.
Fucking legend though.

The lawyer of the Techno Viking asserts that his client had never been a public figure and that he did not want to become one.
His half naked client dancing in the middle of a busy street has a strange way of practicing his privacy.
Hermit_Lailoken@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I see, thank you.
mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
I mean, that’s more than reasonable. The video poster made over 13k in ad revenue and merch sales, against the person’s wishes. Imagine if someone made you go viral, and then sold merch with your name and face on it. It’s a privacy nightmare.

It’ll be 25 years old next year

Sad fact: The Techno Viking got fucked over by the guy who recorded this, who claimed ownership of his image and made merch without permission
And they went into a legal battle about it, and the viking won

I didnt reqlize he start3d the video by defending a femme. V based

Nothing gets the blood pumping like a little confrontation. Hardly looked necessary TBH. The dude tripped into someone. She was fine.

Nah, assholes try to do that and cop a feel and then play innocent. No one got hurt, he was right to check.

This video is older than YouTube, I think.

More than a decade later and I would still ride that longship all the way down and back up the Atlantic coastline. 🫦

Most iconic WWE walkout ever
Goretantath@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Still a classic.
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
My favorite part is still the point.
assa123@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Now I wonder if Terry Crews’ White Chicks dance is based on this. The whistle sounds similar.
Phegan@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I showed my wife this for the first time recently. Clearly she was not terminally online in 2004

Somehow I missed this a decade ago, Sexiest man alive…
Jhex@lemmy.world 10 months ago
does anyone have a link to the version with fake caption? that was hilarious
Jarix@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Good damn, Techno Viking.
Been a long time since I was graded with his presence. Much obliged
somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Still always watch it, video degraded and all.
