Episode Details

Norway bid a solemn farewell to King Harald V, who died at 89 after 30 years on the throne, as tens of thousands lined Oslo’s streets for a state funeral attended by global leaders including Prince William, Japan’s Crown Prince, and Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy — underscoring his worldwide respect. Despite recent royal family turmoil, 72% of Norwegians still support the monarchy. The ceremony ended with F-35 jets symbolizing his passing, his coffin interred beside his parents, and the official mourning concluded as new King Haakon VIII emerged from the crypt — followed by church bells, raised flags, and a triumphant balcony wave to a cheering crowd, marking the end of an era and the dawn of a new one.
