Has anyone come across with this video? I can't think of a better, real life, non-celebrity depiction of an alpha male.

His body language is a lesson in itself.

Techno Viking is so alpha / aggressive that he looks like he might scare some girls. I'm not saying that they wouldn't be attracted to him, because I think that they definitely would as an uncontrollable response to his clear dominance. I'm sure he gets laid.

However, it looks like that alphaness needs to be just a little more well rounded. It seems as if he's all warrior, ready to fight, and not very laid back. But maybe he's just in the zone with his techno dancing. He wears the jewelry of someone who generally likes his recreational substances and he seems to have a lot of friends. Its crazy to see the deference he gets from lesser alphas/ betas and women. I've known a few guys like this in my life. That is guys who seemed to be so alpha that their mere presence probably exuded a chemical signal that strongly worked to stratify the social order. They were all in shape similar to techno viking, and strangely all resembled each other and techno viking (perhaps a coincidence). However, more than half of them were either criminals or aspiring criminals. And they were all prone to random fighting. When your testosterone is that high its hard to stay out of trouble.

I saw that video several years ago, it's great. I started kind of studying the scenario tho and what I gather is this. The goof he grabs is some guy he knows who's really fucked up and he's irritated by. The bottle of water some beta gives him just wants to interact with him. The message he get's is just some flyer someone was handing out and he's so into his dominant character he dismisses it. The lesson though, is that all these simple near meaningless interactions are framed by him in a way that makes it look fucking awesome.

My ex said she thought the way he danced was sexy. Probably does scare them off after the initial sexy dance though.

JA!

...and by the way, he´s at the love parade in Berlin, the huge goth-ish / rave-ish street festival.

Technoviking - überalpha!

There's a commercial on TV that plays that music here everyday day so I'm bumping this for the guys who haven't seen this.

I remember this version. I think he would have made a better Thor.

Missed this thread

Cool, more dance game ideas and inspiration to bulk up

Speaking of body language, there's a guy on one of the crews that I'm running that walks about like this;



It's almost comical to me the way he swings his arms.

Funny shit but not much to emulate there, unless you need a reminder to go to the gym.

Post: #22

Yeah, they're at the Fuck Parade. It's this big techno festival they have in Berlin or something.

I saw this video a few years ago, it all seems highly staged, but that could just be me being overly cynical. That said, I think it is fucking awesome! He's SO alpha it's like he's from a Greek (or Norse, more fittingly!) myth or something.

Anyway, this had to be bumped so others can see the video for all it's cool (and hilarious) delights.



Edit - The video in the OP isn't there anymore, so here's another copy:

He is alpha in large part because of his physical stature. He never had to experience the shit tests from males and females that us less imposing-looking men face daily.

Post: #25

That's true to be fair.

However, it appears my theory of it being staged is wrong, as the viking himself is suing the man who made the video:
