Weve survived the Mayan apocalypse and Y2K, but be afraidthe end of the world is coming
again.
This time its the Viking apocalypse that is allegedly set to destroy Earth, with Norse mythology claiming the planet will split open and unleash the inhabitants of Hel on February 22.
According to the Vikings, Ragnarök is a series of events including the final predicted battle that results in the death of a number of major gods, the occurrence of various natural disasters and the subsequent submersion of the world in water.

Kinda goofy. That big dude, first picture in source article, has an identical copy of my Son's plastic Mjöllnir.
Also...
Hasn't happened. Won't until the next Ice Age kicks in. Probably about another thousand years.

“When I was but a child, my aged grandmother told me a story from the old country, which contained an ancient warning, ‘...for you see, it is said that when Hell is full, the dead shall walk the earth, smelling very bad and taking all of the better minimum wage jobs, which will raise the inflation rate unsupported by increased consumerism; which, while having a positive effect on the balance of trade, may impact the renoberation of long-term bond yields’.”

Sorry about that.
On a brighter note, anything big enough to “swallow the Sun”, we’ll see coming from a long way off...
