Strong Norwegian flavor

Looking at the stories filmed by the Norwegians with the heart of watching American nautical movies, it is inevitable that they will not move high, and they can’t get nervous when they should be nervous. There was a group of sharks and everyone fell in. According to traditional thinking, you have to eat them without killing them. The arms and legs fell off, but the two of them came up without any damage. They didn't fall into the thrilling and serious injuries of traditional sailing. Fortunately, they were not enough to abuse them. . . When the characters should be in conflict before, the American blockbuster scrambled together early. The two men killed each other with their eyes for a few seconds, and it was over. It really complied with the slow and gentle character of the Norwegian.

Thor Heyerdahl: [Meeting all in the bay] This is Herman Watzinger, my second in command. For the simple reason that without him no one could have been first in command. Herman these are my two fantastic radio operators: Torstein. War Hero, nerves of asbestos. As far as we know, he has only two weaknesses: whiskey and women - Knut Haugland, also a war hero, and I know Knut hates me for saying it, but I must be allowed to call him a legend. That is what you are, Knut - Erik Hesselberg...
Erik Hesselberg: [ironic] No legend.
Thor Heyerdahl: ...but you have saved my life. Erik and I grew up together in Larvik. Erik has one unique skill that we are going to appreciate. Erik has been at sea before. I'm sure you have some questions...
Erik Hesselberg: [Walking toward Thor] Maybe I should introduce you first. This is Thor. A pompous, self-centered weirdo, but a very good leader. And because he is, we are about to do what Tiki did 1500 years ago. We are going to...
Thor Heyerdahl: We will build a raft.
Erik Hesselberg: And...
Thor Heyerdahl: [laughling] And drift into the sunset.
Torstein Raaby: [curious] Where is the raft?
Thor Heyerdahl: [ironic] You're sitting on it.

Thor Heyerdahl: [Radiotyping to mainland] Early man did not see the oceans as a barrier but rather as a means of communication. This is science that can not be done behind a desk or by a committee. That a 1500 year old civilization. Possessed maritime and navigational skills to successfully maneuver a balsa wood raft over 5,000 miles. We are using the same stars as they did.
