As what?!? "The littlest Viking"?
He did Mel a favor. Mel should hire that tall think blonde guy from TrueBlood who plays the viking vampire. I'd rather watch him, he'd be believable, as opposed to "Stumpy the viking".
Gibson makes excellent movies. I'd pay to see his work any day.
Average male Scandinavian height in the viking era was 5’6” to 5’9”, not exactly fear inducing in this modern age.
