Josh Gates demonstrated how well Viking sunstones work as a navigation aid on an episode of “Expedition Unknown.”

The Vikings invented the ultimate maritime compass.

I watched that program as well. He definitely proved that the sunstones worked.

“The Vikings invented the ultimate maritime compass.”

If they were so smart why is it they never figured out how to tack?

I have seen on TV more than one successful attempt to validate the crystal navigation device. This is old news

I’m surprised to hear that. I gave up on Josh Gates because he never seemed to find what he promised. The TV equivalent of click bait.
