Highlander style or where they put in a guillotine?

no idea, I've just been told years ago by an archaeologist(student) at moesgård museum here in Denmark that if a Viking was killed with his back turned to the enemy it meant one of two things, either he was a coward who fled from battle or he was denied an honorable death by a coward without honor.

“I am content to die as are all our comrades. But I will not let myself be slaughtered like a sheep. I would rather face the blow. Strike straight at my face and watch carefully if I pale at all.”

Like a boss.

haha that was the best part

personally, i'd rather not be struck with an axe at all
