Icelanders Perform Ultimate Viking Chant to Welcome Home Their Team
Thousands of Icelanders greeted their home team as they returned from their historic Euro 2016 endeavor. Naturally it soon erupted into what could be their most epic chant to date.
Proud fans gathered at Arnarholl, a hill in downtown Reykjavik, to welcome the boys home after becoming the smallest nation to make it to the last 16 in the championship.
It's so damn nice to see a people (and a team) that hasn't been ruined by "vibrancy."
The Iceland team lead the traditional chant that seemed to include a high percentage of the country's 323,000 residents.
Beautiful Iceland! Once upon a time Sweden, Norway and Denmark looked very much the same. Please Iceland, you kicked out the bankers, now don't fall for the other trick the globalists want to push on you: "diversity." Don't destroy your beautiful people and beautiful heritage. You're only 323,000. How is that NOT a global minority? Keep Iceland for the Icelanders!
The passionate Viking war chant has impressed Euro fans throughout the tournament, but their latest tribute is by far the most thrilling.
Fans gathered in the same area to watch Iceland get knocked out by France on Sunday which, unsurprisingly, also led to 10,000 undeterred people chanting in perfect unison.
Wow.. Respect for Iceland team and #ISL fans..
