In this episode, we will follow the daring adventures of Bjørn Ironside and Hasting, leading a fleet of 62 Viking longships into the heart of the Mediterranean. Their goal? The legendary riches of Rome. From assembling their formidable fleet in 859 to the brutal raid on Paris, and through treacherous waters to a dramatic climax at Luna, we unravel their strategic missteps and cultural encounters. This episode delves deep into their perilous journey, exploring the bold ambitions that drove them and the historic impacts of their exploits. Witness the cunning strategies, fierce battles, and the harsh lessons learned when ambition meets reality. Tune in as we dissect the myth and reality of one of the Vikings' most audacious voyages.

어제 잠이 잘 오지 않더니,
지금 겨우 오후인데 벌써 피곤하네요.
昨天怎么也睡不着，
现在才下午就好累。

저는 어제 운동을 해서 그런지,
누우니까 바로 잠에 들었어요.
我昨天做了运动，一趟下就睡着了。

그래요? 저도 운동을 해봐야겠어요.
혹시 운동 추천해 줄 수 있어요?
是吗？我也要锻炼锻炼。
你可以给我推荐一下吗？

특별한 건 없고,
저는 주로 달리기와 스트레칭하는데,
숙면에 도움 되는 것 같아요. 
也没什么特别的，
我主要跑步和做拉伸运动，
好像对睡眠很有帮助。

script:枪响之后没有赢家，伤害与被伤害有时候也是对立统一的关系。伤害他人有时候也意味着在毁灭自己，即便你占尽了优势也不可能是为所欲为的，然后你就可以接着说你想到的平衡的问题，一切都在追求一种平衡，健康在于平衡，发展在于平衡，对抗有时候也是一种平衡，对不对？所以如果你想到了这个之后，你就最后就不仅仅是人和熊的关系了，人和自然的关系，人和自我的关系，人和世界的关系。 

平衡  píng héng  
关系  guān xi 
翻译: There are no winners in a gun fight. To hurt or to be hurt are not always mutually exclusive. Sometimes hurting others causes more damage to yourself，despite being in an advanteous position, you can't act recklessly, this leads us to the topic of balance. There needs to be balance in life. Balance in heath, balance in development, even balance in conflict, right? When you come to realise this, you will recognise that it doesn't just refer to the relationship between man and animals, but also to the relationships between man and nature, man and himself, and man and the world around him.
