This video is an April Fools' joke. It presents a fictional theory about the Viking 'atgeirr' being an early European firearm, claiming research in Icelandic manuscripts led to the discovery of gunpowder's accidental origin during the Settlement Period. The video details a supposed saga reference from Njal's Saga and showcases the construction and range test of a recreated 'atgeirr'. Links to Dr. Crawford's actual video, a related Old English derivation of 'atgierr', a book, and a sponsor are provided.
