Haha, that totally had me going...I was all "OMGWTFBBQ THAT'S AWESOME, MUST FIND OUT MOAR" and then I googled it and found that it's part of the viral campaign for the Xbox 360 RPG Too Human, argh.
That's the problem with these frickin' ARGs, they get me all excited for stuff that's actually fictional. Still, I kind of like that in the end.
I do admire Silicon Knights' commitment to accuracy, though! I mean, they really had him reading an Old Norse text (Wiki says he was actually reading it in German, but Wiki doesn't know what the fuck it's talking about, it's totally Old Norse or some modern but relatively close form like Icelandic). And they also got a proper German speaker for the other excavator. I approve. XD
...Also, interestingly, this comment showed up and I read it and watched the video in the hour or so between finishing my Old Norse homework and going off to the Old Norse reading group itself (which I head off to about 4). XD
