[00:00:00]In September 1066, Harald Hardrada sailed for England with 300 ships and 10,000 men.

[00:00:07]King Harold Godwinson marched his army 180 miles north in four days.

[00:00:13]The Norse were caught without armor.

[00:00:16]As Harold's forces reached Stamford Bridge, a single Viking stepped onto it alone. He refused to move. He killed 40 soldiers before a man floated beneath him in a barrel and drove a spear up through the planks. The bridge fell.

[00:00:31]Harold was dead. Harold had won.

[00:00:35]But 19 days later, William landed in the south.

[00:00:38]Harold's army marched back, exhausted, half destroyed, and on a hill in Hastings, England fell.

[00:00:46]Conquered.
