As a Swede, hearing Alexander explain and show this to an American, is HILARIOUS!!!

[mayam]

As a Swede, I have never realized, until now, that this is total madness :))) wtactualf are we doing :)))

[YDRIBLEM]

So Alexander Skarsgard is the only human alive looking hot while doing the midsummer dance.

[annielfc]

I LOVE how he volunteered to demonstrate the dance with no hesitation, no thought or care about how he might be perceived. His genuineness is so charming!

[Thepomafame]

Now I get why Nordic countries are so happy and have a peaceful life, they enjoy little things, they don't need luxury to be happy

[gretam]

The Skarsgård family is a treasure to the world 😂

[MarteParaddict]

Jimmy acting like he hasn't talked about all this before with Alicia Vikander, haha.

[ljhh]

I'm swedish and I'm forced to do this every year... Not awkward at all.. 😂😂

[catrionathomson]

I am Scottish. A lot of my sister's friends are Swedish and we did this in a little garden in Glasgow. It was a lot of fun. We drank, ate Swedish foods and danced round a decorated washing line pole.

this is just embarrassing, I’m swedish and its actually like this

[queen_in_yellow]

I would personally like to thank Stellan Skarsgard for his contributions to this life. His acting and all his gorgeous children. ❤️

[BStop]

Alexander is the cutest! Not only is he ridiculously buff and handsome, he has the cutest, dorkiest smile and laugh. OMG

[IchBinEineBohne]

I am the ambassador of the tiny frog nation and i thank the swedish nation for their yearly contribution to our people and our common cause.

[Watfordwales]

Probably a lot of americans watching this and thinking... this can’t be true, Alexander must be fooling Jimmy.

No... it is true. Swedes actually do this.

[gayatri.arindah]

The hot gene must run in the skarsgard family

[emmmsan]

(I’m from Sweden) I like that everyone probably thinking that this is some bullshit that Alexander’s making up😂 but I promise u this is true, we celebrate summer by dancing around a pole and singing about small frogs😂😂

[Beqzh]

That ”left him hanging” moment was soo perfect lmao😂😂

[strawberryseeds]

I would like to thank Sweden for making this beautiful and weird man

[NicoleLovesBTS]

Another reason why I need to move to Sweden

[marisatauriello]

Weather it's a repeat question or not, Alexander skarsgard is just....too gorgeous for words. I'm just looking at him and listening to his beautiful voice and that's all I need.
