What was the secret weapon that allowed the Vikings to strike fear into the hearts of Europe? It wasn't just their axes—it was the revolutionary engineering of their ships. Central to this was the iron rivet. In this video, we explore the "clinker-built" (lapstrake) technique, a mechanical masterpiece of the Middle Ages. Discover how hand-forged iron rivets allowed Viking longships to be incredibly light, flexible, and strong enough to dance over Atlantic waves rather than crashing through them. We break down the metallurgy, the woodworking, and the sheer genius of an empire built on the strength of a tiny piece of iron.
