Oh BTW liked the history lesson  However, I feel the need to put to your attention that trolls are not merely featured in either the Poetic or Prose Edda, but in many other Old Norse manuscripts as well. Any resemblance to and relation with Vikings is purely coincidental. Trolls and vikings are from different races even: a viking is merely a Human, whereas a troll is a Jötunn.
Also I would like to address the issue that vikings are projected as being wild savages destroying and pillaging everything they come across. Historical evidence clearly shows this is not the case, and I'm disappointed with your obvious lack of intelligence for not knowing that.
